Covid-19 Good And Bad

According to yahoo news, Seychelles the world's most vaccinated country still has covid outbreaks.  80% of the infected has not been vaccinated.  However Israel and United kingdom are doing relatively better.  Perhaps, they haven't let their guard down?  Data shows risk of transmission remains high even in countries with high vaccination rates.

That bird flown the coop the university of California San Francisco came up with a mrna platform to destroy all viral infection. In humans

However tgis will lead to destruction of all cancer and viral segments of the health industry

. Expect a bunch of deaths killings and public smearing of anyone 

who dare take on a multi trillion cash cow industry in 20 year platforms... Some pathetic department of a university system..... 

Trust we not get the all vaccine just a watered down and improvable with the booster shit sequences.

Massachusetts announces zero deaths from covid today.

Nearly 80% of people in the US live
within 5 miles of all three Covid-19 vaccines

As more people are vaccinated, life is starting to return to normal.  In recent update, US Center for disease control says fully vaccinated people can go maskless outdoors and in most places.  Exceptions are airplanes, trains, airports, international travel, buses, hospitals, doctor's offices and public spaces where required by local law.  Non-vaccinated and people showing covid symptoms should continue to wear masks.  CDC hopes more non-vaccinated people see the benefit of vaccination as a way to return to normal life earlier.

Great news.................thanks to President Biden's "Operation Ludicrous Speed"

of course none of this would have been necessary had rump done his job to protect america from harm

but he didnt

in fact   he refused            

and went golfing

New mask rules trust Americans will be honest
about vaccine status.  Experts say they'll lie.

USA TODAY
"I mean, you're going to be depending on people being honest enough to say
whether they were vaccinated or not and responsible enough to be wearing a mask,"
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top epidemiologist, told CNN Thursday.

There's long been talk of a "vaccine passport" model of enforcement in the U.S.,
where vaccination status grants or limits a person's ability to travel or enter certain
spaces. But such a program is mostly a theory currently, and
multiple businesses have announced that they won't be asking customers
to prove their vaccine status if they shop unmasked.

And while businesses and politicians say they trust Americans to be honest,
experts on human behavior aren't so sure.

Michael McCullough, a psychology professor at the University of California, San Diego,
said the new guidance will enable unvaccinated people to flout rules with "impunity."

"Many will lie. Many are lying, have been lying," he said.
"In some ways, this is a really perfect recipe for lots of people to be dishonest
about whether they got vaccinated."

@fubah2

My lies start tomorrow at the gym. Honor system? Good luck with that. I'l still wear a mask at the grocery store but not at the gym.

Vaccine hesitancy is the biggest threat to ending the pandemic.  Even bigger than new variants of coronavirus.   According to survey of over 700 epidemiologists by Society for epidemiological research and Council of state epidemiologists.  Now vaccination rate is the key for countries re-opening economies. 

Hopefully they wipe down all the equipment regularly anyway.

Yeah, the "honor system" is idiotic.  Infections will rise.  And experts have already expressed this.

But problem is, it's too late now.  CDC can't very well roll that back.

J&J vaccine: Risk of dying from Covid-19
is 40 times the risk of rare blood clot

CNN
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Wednesday it has
received reports of 28 people who have developed a rare blood clotting
syndrome out of 8.7 million given J&J's Janssen coronavirus vaccine.
Three of them have died from the condition, known as thrombosis with
thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS).

However, in that same time period -- March 2 to May 7 -- more than 2.2 million
people were diagnosed with Covid-19 and more than 43,000 died,
according to data from Johns Hopkins University.

In a group of about 8.7 million people, that scales to nearly 59,000
new Covid-19 cases reported in the past two months and nearly
1,150 new Covid-19 deaths,
more than 40 times the number of reported and confirmed cases of TTS.

They do plus people wipe it down when finished and this was the case long before covid. Plus in gyms it's natural inclination to social distance. Unless you have a workout partner, whatever piece of equipment you are using is your own little world. Closing gyms, requiring masks at gyms, was always just window dressing and not based on anything.

@StumpTownStu

 window dressing is right on the money. Laying on somebodies sweat was never a good idea, 20 years ago or 20 years in the future. Fortunately I have a decent home gym now. I feel for the people who couldn't workout.

Actually a home gym is a terrific way to go.

Saves time, costs, and slightly improves adherence to a regimen due to the sheer convenience.

@fubah2

 you are so right. I love it! Working out has helped me cope with covid the past year and counting.

I have some equipment and have been toying with building a legit home gym in it's own structure but part of the discipline for me is getting up and going. Always has been.

unless somebody has unlimited funds to build a home gym it takes time to accumulate stuff. I have around 3000 lbs of DB's and plates in the basement.  Smith machine is my prized piece. My wife just bangs on the floor if she needs something lol

Environics analytic study found vaccine hesitant people tend to be young and rural with low income and low education.

Edelman trust barometer reveals poor information threatens pandemic recovery.  69% of those with good information (that they trust) say they will take vaccine within a year.  However 52% of those with poor information (that they distrust) say they will take vaccine within a year.

intresting            bcuz dems tend to b urban and well educated

so this suggests something else

Tuesday was a "landmark day," as the US reached a new Covid-19 vaccine milestone:
60% of adults have now received at least one dose of Covid-19 vaccine,
according to the US Centers and Disease Control and Prevention.

States with higher vaccination rates have generally had lower Covid-19 case rates,
a CNN analysis of data from the CDC and Johns Hopkins University found.

Seven states - Connecticut, Hawaii, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey
and Vermont - reported per capita case rates that were about 10% LOWER on average

Ten states have vaccinated less than half of their adult residents with at least one dose,
and their average per capita case rate was about 19% higher than those seven states
that have already reached the Biden administration's goal.

The 10 states that have vaccinated less than half of their adult residents --
Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina,
Tennessee, West Virginia and Wyoming - are almost all REPUBLICAN controlled.

Texas reports 0 Covid deaths 2 months after Biden slammed them for “Neanderthal thinking”
