Caution on air travel. Most risky times are during the crowded loading/unloading, esp when people have to work harder to lift heavy bags into the overheads, and when they serve a meal and everyone takes off their masks all at once to eat and drink.
When I flew during the pandemic, I ate and drank enough at home before I got to the plane and didn’t need to take my mask off until the flight was over. Also, pay up for more distance if you’re so inclined.
And while evidence is conflicting, it appears from the medical research that business class and first class are areas of lower transmission risk because passengers sit farther apart.
I would bet it’s not so much the heavy breathing during lifting, but the fact that the air isn’t being refreshed in the plane at the same rate as it is in the air. Also, the newer the plane, the better ventilation it has. This is something plane manufacturers bragged about before covid. On newer planes, its takes between 2-3 minutes for the amount of fresh air entering the cabin to replace the “old” air and not much longer on older planes.
But remember a year and a half ago, when the news was reporting on individual passengers from Italy being identified as covid-positive after landing here? And the insistance that none of the other passengers had to worry about being at risk?
There’s a reason the so-called experts have no credibility with some people.
And neither will the CDC, as long as Hunter gets a board seat (with a 10% kickback to the “big guy”). Naturally, he is very well qualified due to his lack of experience in the Russian oil industry, Chinese solar? industry, Chinese biological-genetic weapons industry, and most importantly, his extensive, real experience in the Peruvian coca industry.
But he’s an artist. His participation, and the kickback, is his art product. So it’s all good.
This artist was given $83,000 in physical money, to use to create a piece of art (to use in the art, not as payment for the art). He produced two empty frames, titled “take the money and run”. And now refuses to return the money to the museum, claiming that him taking the money was in fact the art.
Long COVID is evidenced by a variety of random symptoms long after the initial acute infection has cleared up and gone away. This is precisely Brady’s situation.
Long COVID
Long COVID, also known as post-COVID-19 syndrome, post-acute sequelae of COVID-19, chronic COVID syndrome and long-haul COVID, is a condition characterized by long-term sequelae – appearing or persisting after the typical convalescence period – of coronavirus disease 2019.Wikipedia
In particular the symptoms do not have to manifest on a continuous basis following recovery from the base infection. I think I read somewhere that roughly a third of those who recover from COVID-19 fall prey to this long COVID dilemma, symptoms of which are many and varied.
COVID-19 is the virus from hell. I hope I never contract it.
early results showed patients who received the drug, called molnupiravir, within five days of COVID-19 symptoms had about half the rate of hospitalization and death as patients who received a dummy pill. The study tracked 775 adults with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 who were considered higher risk for severe disease due to health problems such as obesity, diabetes or heart disease.
Among patients taking molnupiravir, 7.3% were either hospitalized or died at the end of 30 days, compared with 14.1% of those getting the dummy pill. There were no deaths in the drug group after that time period compared with eight deaths in the placebo group, according to Merck.
The CDC today issued a reminder for Americans to trust healthcare professionals when learning about the vaccine—except if said doctor disagrees with the government, in which case he should be ignored and fired.
Here we go again with the “holiday” BS. That looks like a Christmas tree to me, so I assume they mean Christmas parties but, as is the case with most Marxists, are uncomfortable with anything making reference to Jesus Christ. Beyond that:
Here where I live, at Christmas time, the outdoor temperature is very low. So Biden’s CDC wants us to open our windows regardless, then burn heating oil or natural gas to restore a livable indoor temperature.
That would be fine except that, thanks to Biden’s policies, the cost of both those heating fuels has already risen a great deal and continues to escalate. This means, for many Americans living where temperatures are colder, the cost of following Biden’s CDC recommendation is already prohibitive, and can be expected to be even higher when Christmas arrives. This makes about as much sense as all the other asinine crap Biden and his lackeys are promulgating.
Thanksgiving comes before Christmas. And there’s some other holidays, too
Not even mentioning the non Christians who pretend to be Christian… (including those with no “personal responsibility” to the community) Christmas is also celebrated as a secular holiday. Which incidentally is how it was before there was a Christianity…
Santa has nothing to do with Christianity. Nor the north pole. Or elves. Or tons of presents.
Nearly 10x as many PCR test orders over at Wuhan in the summer of 2019 as usual. Just doing a little extra research.
PCR, or polymerase chain reaction, tests are used to detect the presence of a particular genetic sequence in a sample, and they have applications beyond COVID-19 testing. But the report alleges the unusual uptick likely signals awareness of a new disease spreading in and around Wuhan, the capital of Hubei Province.
Purchases rose sharply from July through October as well, in particular from the Wuhan University of Science and Technology. The institution spent 8.92 million yuan on PCR tests in 2019, about eight times its total for the previous year.
The university, along with local hospitals and public health authorities, plays a direct role in responding to outbreaks of new diseases, according to the report.
The involvement of these groups provides evidence that “the increase of purchasing was most likely linked to the emergence of COVID-19 in Hubei Province in 2019,” the report said. “We assess with high confidence that the pandemic began much earlier than China informed the [World Health Organization] about COVID-19.”
PFE scientists admitting natural immunity is probably better than their vaccine.
So why are none of these vaccine mandates letting you take an antibody test to be exempt (or for a few months after that, etc)? Follow the Science sounds more like follow the Money.
