Needing annual boosters was not, and frankly still is not, a forgone conclusion. But even if it is, I have little issue with it. Delta first emerged in October and changed the game in a huge way just over half a year later. A jump from an r0 of 3 to an r0 of 7 is mind numbingly massive. If we can keep it at bay with a booster every 12 months, then it's a small price to pay.

 

Fox Nation's Patriot Awards to honor everyday heroes across the country

https://www.foxnews.com/media/fox-nation-patriot-awards-heroes

 

Some important facts:

 

  • Fox Nation is hosting an event that requires proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test.

  • Several Fox News hosts who will attend the event have long denounced such vaccine passports.

  • Fox requires all of its on-site employees to either be vaccinated or get tested daily.

Strange, if you watch Fox, they have a much different attitude when they talk about the vaccine.

Funny, huh?

Pull the quotes, Nostradamus. Let's see em.

There were plenty of articles out there talking about it as soon as the vaccines started meeting up with the mutations.  I've been on board with the yearly combo covid-flu shot since I first read about it.  We also knew that the first vaxes were imperfect, blockers meant to get us by until we developed something better.

Good. Hoping Biden gets prison time for trying to ram this through. Scumbag.

 

I'm sorry is that *squints* 93% vaccinated Ireland. *rubs eyes* *squints again*

Well that's unfortunate. 

Friend is being intubated today.  He is making no progress. Was due to see them at a dinner this weekend for another friends 60th birthday.  So incredibly sad.

Sorry to hear that di

Why Spain has avoided Europe's COVID surge

https://news.yahoo.com/why-spain-has-avoided-europes-covid-surge-100025909.html

Quote

As most of Europe suffers a COVID-anxiety attack, however, la buena vida continues in Spain. Crowds revel at terrace bars, drinking sangria and eating tapas into the night, the clubs have reopened, crowds frolic at beach parties and wine festivals, and unlike in many Western European countries, a vaccine passport is still not required. According to Statista, the COVID rate in Spain over the past seven days is 46 per 100,000 population, compared to Austria at 851, the Netherlands at 539 and Slovenia at 1,058.

Quote

The reason for the relatively carefree mood across Spain, said Dr. Daniel Lopez-Acuña, former director of Health Action in Crisis at WHO, is the country’s very high vaccination rate, nearing 90 percent of those 12 and older, and its continued protection measures, like indoor mask mandates, which, unlike most places, Spain never dropped.

Those precautions are paying off. "Spain is doing particularly well compared to other European countries,” Lopez-Acuña told Yahoo News, crediting health agencies, stringent class-size reductions and mask wearing in schools, and a science-accepting public, as well as long-enduring COVID restrictions.

Oh.

 

Vaccines, masks and mandates work.

 

Oh.

Moderna is requesting EUA for boosters for all adults.

That article is strange because Spain is dealing with an uptick in cases and their 14-day cumulative number of cases per 100,000 inhabitants is at 82.

Quote

The epidemiological curve of the coronavirus in Spain is once again on an upward trend, with cases rising at an accelerating rate. According to the latest Health Ministry report, released on Monday evening, the 14-day cumulative number of cases per 100,000 inhabitants now stands at 82. This is up nearly 11 points from Friday, the previous day for which data is available as no figures are released on the weekend. In comparison, last Monday, November 8, the incidence rate rose just five points over the same time period.

In just two weeks, the incidence rate in Spain has risen 67%. Although the number of cases in Spain is still well below those being reported in many other European countries, in some regions, such as the Basque Country and Navarre, infection rates are double the national average. Hospital admissions for Covid-19 are also slowly rising and some regional governments are now considering introducing restrictions to control the spread of the virus.

https://english.elpais.com/society/2021-11-16/coronavirus-contagions-in-spain-accelerate-as-incidence-hits-82-cases-per-100000-inhabitants.html

Still, their numbers are better than much of Europe even the countries with similar vaccination rates and restrictions. Very odd.

First human trial of Alzheimer's disease nasal vaccine to begin at Boston hospital

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/alzheimers-disease-nasal-vaccine-human-trial-to-begin-at-boston-hospital/

A vaccine that can stop mental degenerative disease? That sounds like something the Trump supporters can easily be 100% against.

Unfortunate that you wound up in the placebo group. Better luck next time. :roll:

On November 12, 2021, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit granted a motion to stay OSHA's COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Emergency Temporary Standard, published on November 5, 2021 (86 Fed. Reg. 61402) ("ETS"). The court ordered that OSHA "take no steps to implement or enforce" the ETS "until further court order." While OSHA remains confident in its authority to protect workers in emergencies, OSHA has suspended activities related to the implementation and enforcement of the ETS pending future developments in the litigation.
