    well this is disheartening. manitoba government expects only 70% of people in this province will be vaccinated in 2021. brutal. 
    So 7 people will get it and 3 won't? ;)
    Considering 20%-30% of the population is not even allowed or unable to get the vaccine this year I would say 100% of those that are allowed to get it will be able to. That does not even take into account the antivaxxers meaning there will be leftovers and no one to vaccinate.

    i was thinking about this too. i mean, kids under 16 aren't even eligible (as far as I know). so, does that mean he meant 70% of people who are eligible will get it, or 70% of the total pop? I'd feel a lot better obviously if it's the latter.

    considering they're mostly mouth breathers, probably a lot.

    Been invited to this "big" swedish artist to sift through all his boxes of live recordings, and video tapes and share a beer when the pandemic is over... so LET'S FUCKING GO.



    Hah. I wish. Would love to listen to the two (2) new ABBA songs they have recorded but not relased yet.

    SUPER DEMOCRATIC and INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM centric country of Sweden has finally passed it's new law making it easier to force through regulations concerning this pandemic. 

    In short, before Sweden couldn't by law stop people from doing things (hence giving out recommendations instead and hoping people did the right thing) because OF HOW GOD DAMN DEMOCRATIC AND CITIZENS FREEDOM FOCUSED WE WERE, but now they can go more Orwellian as other countries WHO ARE NOT SO GOD DAMN ABBA AS US. Communist cash-hand outs in the future? Time will tell.

    The new pandemic law, which will be introduced on Sunday, means legally binding rules for places such as gyms and sports facilities, shops and malls.
    The rules aim to reduce congestion, increase the possibilities of introducing binding rules for more activities and impose fines or close activities that do not follow the rules.
    At the same time, a ceiling will be introduced for eight people who may stay in places that are rented out for private gatherings.

    This 0- gives a thumbs up as well.  I saw this research a while back too, but have not seen much new info.  Hopefully this still holds true.

    Wasn’t the blood type thing stated months ago?

    it was. october. but my wife reminded me of it this morning, and hadn't seen it posted in this thread, so figured it might be of some interest.

    I'm O-.  I also approve this possibility.  Also because that blood type runs in my family.   I think both my Mom and my Grandfather are also O-.

    I also don't seem to get sick as much as other people do.   I might get a flu or bronchitus every 5-10 years.... the old cold.. but most of the time I don't even use sick days.   I wonder of O- prevents other diseases too?

    Awesome.  Fingers crossed. I get sinus infections all the time but because it is a “symptom” I got tested again.
