November 27, 20214 yr Travel bans are kinda pointless at this point. Much better off with just well enforced restrictions on vaccine mandates and negative testing for flights. Maybe at worst, you go with 48 hour quarantines and retesting, but outright bans don't buy you much in our current situation.

November 28, 20214 yr I just had a week in England. I had to show proof of vaccine to enter and then had to take a test after two days (negative). Looks like Boris has just upped this to require an immediate PCR test upon entering with full quarantine until the results are in. Over here in Sweden, we are not experiencing any wave yet this fall. Despite that, there are some precautions about to be put into place. The main one is that an establishment must screen for vaccinated people in order to have indoor gatherings of over 100. It will be interesting to review why Sweden isn't being hit this fall when everyone around us is including the Nordic neighbors. Still early but we've had schools in full session now with no masking for over three months and also zero measures in place in general. Vaccination rates are even slightly lower than the other Nordic countries. The only obvious answer is that we have more people with immunity from actually having had the virus. Maybe there is some other explanation.
November 28, 20214 yr Oh my, omicron: New Kansas bill protects ‘right to die.’ Why is GOP on COVID’s side? https://www.yahoo.com/news/oh-omicron-kansas-bill-protects-110000466.html In Kansas, a new law will prohibit businesses from dismissing unvaccinated employees if the worker provides a written excuse from a doctor — we hear Sen. Roger Marshall is available — or claims a "sincere” religious belief. It’s unclear what religion says you should put yourself and others in danger, and then lament your persecution when others mind. The bill, from the party that used to hate unnecessary regulation and lawsuits, requires the Kansas Department of Labor to investigate allegations of businesses not following the law. It authorizes the state attorney general’s office to go to court to enforce compliance.
November 28, 20214 yr Do they deep dive every positive test for variants ? Seems like that would be both time consuming and expensive. Guess they have some sorta protocol in place. 🤔

November 28, 20214 yr The administration needs to keep this guy off the air. Just mentioning lockdowns is going to piss people off plus lockdowns will never happen so why even mention it? I have tried defending this guy from imbeciles like Rand Paul and Ted Cruz but he needs to be kept behind the scenes. https://www.mediaite.com/tv/fauci-tells-stephanopoulos-its-too-early-to-say-on-new-lockdowns-but-warns-we-need-to-prepare-for-the-worst/
November 28, 20214 yr Some good news, Community transmission continues to fall in many places https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/?source=email#cases_community
November 28, 20214 yr 1 hour ago, Joe Shades 73 said: Hopefully that includes people that got 2 doses earlier in the year and got boosted longer than 6 months later The much better place to put your chips is on the concept that this variant only produces mild symptoms. That's what the limited data says to date though it is very very early.
November 28, 20214 yr Got my booster yesterday afternoon. Arm is sore, and a little sluggish today - but I did watch that crapfest of a game, so…
November 28, 20214 yr Does this kick the revised "vaccine" back to EUA status? What happens to the millions of doses of outdated EUA and FDA approved doses? In the event that vaccine-escape variant emerges, Pfizer and BioNTech expect to be able to develop and produce a tailor-made vaccine against that variant in approximately 100 days, subject to regulatory approval.”

November 29, 20214 yr 11 minutes ago, Joe Shades 73 said: no, it is the same vaccine How is it the same? Assuming there is a replacement or "improvement" the previous ones would be obsolete.
November 29, 20214 yr The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) COVID research team just published a study that concluded that there is no significant difference in transmission potential of vaccinated and unvaccinated persons infected with the COVID-19 "Delta variant” in federal prison during an outbreak between July to August 2021.
