    Well it's a 43-page document but lots of the news today's most of reporting on this


  • SpunkieSpunkie Posts: 6,676

    The findings pertainin to immune escape from prior infections  rather than transmissibility and that is the take away.

    Just got my Moderna booster few hours ago. Fingers crossed for no major side effects.

    It’s well past the point of trying to convince anyone to do anything.  Companies that push COVID costs onto those not getting vaccinated via their health insurance are getting it right. Considering the average COVID related hospital say exceeds 40k it’s perfectly reasonable 

    Don’t want a vaccine, fine. Your health insurance now has a 500 dollar a month surcharge

    if I don’t go to the dentist every year I get hit with a surcharge, if I don’t get an annual physical, surcharge again. If I want a discount I have to do all kinds of healthy living education.   It’s the same thing.  If I don’t do things to keep me healthy I pay more for coverage. Simple

    before I got hired I had a nicotine test.  They won’t hire smokers because they don’t want to pay for their health costs. 

    a lot of this would go away if we just said fine, do what you want…. But it’ll cost you 6k a year in premiums.  Then you find out real quick that principle isn’t more valuable than money

    You got this. 

    I did mine with my mom a month ago. She didn't complain one little bit, so I decided I'd have a positive outlook on it, too. I barely noticed a thing!

    Thanks. My first two shots were ok. Barely any side effects. I am hoping for the same here. Glad you and your mom were good with yours. My parents were also fine.

    Thanks. I had basically the same reaction with the booster that I had with the other two shots. I felt fine all day and when I went to bed. Then woke up at 4:00am with a slight 100.5 fever. Took a few Tylenol and went back to bed. Woke up this morning feeling fine but a little tired. That’s about it. I did my normal Saturday run on Friday. That may have been hard to do today. But otherwise all is well. Thanks.

    What some will do to avoid the jab.

    An Italian anti-vaxxer wanted a health certificate, so he wore a fake arm to his coronavirus vaccination


    An Italian man raised eyebrows this week and made global headlines when he arrived at a vaccination center in northern Italy and tried to fool health workers into administering a coronavirus vaccine into a prosthetic arm.

    troublesome and not something that crossed my radar if ever disciussed and was considered by the experts, mutations that include other viruses....



    Omicron possibly more infectious because it shares genetic code with common cold coronavirus, study says

    this could also very well be the mutation that takes over (since transmissibility seems to be the defining factor when discussed, SO FAR), and the mutation that isn't as bad illness-wise, that we just learn to live with, like with influenza. 

    HOPEFULLY.

    ^ the vaccine makers were told to kick it up a notch quicker today.

    'mild' news could be political based on evidence suggesting otherwise?
