Love you guys. Thanks all for hanging in here and continuing to post information, etc. It’s been a long road. And frankly I’m really depressed about it all. Who’s not. Glad we have each other.

Anyway. Stay well all.

France suspends around 3,000 health care workers for failing to comply with COVID-19 vaccine mandate

A doctor from Oregon who said mask-wearing can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning got his medical license revoked

Well, that's quite a story. It's a wonder that he had any patients anyway, so no loss to the medical profession.

We had a veterinary colleague who diagnosed pets by holding her hands in a basin of glass beads. Medical professionals have mental breakdowns just like anyone else.

Cuba first country to vaccinate children as young as age two, with local unapproved dose | National Post

Cuba always seems to be advanced in their medical system.

From the article:

"Cuba is the only country vaccinating children that young, but Bencomo said scientists and health officials are comfortable with doing so because the Soberana vaccines “are very safe in children” since they use a traditional virus technology that is the primary platform for several vaccines already given to Cuban children."
...
Cuban scientists correlated the immune response in children with that of adults given the Soberana shots and children who had already contracted COVID. The Finlay Institute reported that “after two doses of Soberana 02, 99.3 per cent of the 3-to-11 year-old children and 92.9 per cent of the 12-to-18 year-old children had an antibody response four times higher than the pre-vaccination level.”

Do vaccine requirements work? Let's check

@United
went from 59% to 90% vaccinated in 6 weeks

@DeptofDefense
went from 76% to 89% in 3 weeks

@LSU
went from 63% to 81% with a month left

@FoxNews
@aboutKP
@RutgersU
are all at 90% or above.

So yes, vax requirements work

Should schools require students to get the COVID vaccine?

Los Angeles became the first major school district in the country to issue a vaccine mandate when its Board of Education unanimously voted last week to require all eligible students to be vaccinated against COVID-19 to attend in-person classes.

The most vehement opposition to student vaccine mandates echoes many of the complaints that have fueled pushback to school mask requirements. Critics say it’s unfair to force children to get the vaccine when they face a very low risk of severe infection and there’s substantial evidence that schools can be kept safe using other mitigation strategies.
board on Thursday voted unanimously in favor of the policy.

Others fear that a large share of parents would pull their children from schools rather than comply with the mandates, a step that would subject many students to inadequate distance learning over a medical choice they’re not able to make for themselves.

What’s next
A major factor influencing school COVID policies is the fact that there are currently no vaccines approved for children under the age of 12. Experts say emergency approval of the first vaccine for 5-to-11-year-olds could come before the end of the year.

Arkansas Researchers Find Potential Cause of ‘Long Haul’ COVID-19 Symptoms

At the heart of the team’s findings is an antibody that shows up weeks after an initial infection and attacks and disrupts a key regulator of the immune system.

As many as 30% of COVID-19 patients experience lingering fatigue, brain fog and shortness of breath. The cause of long COVID-19 has eluded scientists, but the UAMS team’s discovery sheds important new light on the molecular-level mechanisms behind it.

“Everything that we’ve found is consistent with this antibody as the instigator of long COVID, so it’s an exciting development,” Dr. Arthur said.

I think that it was always knows that long covid was an autoimmune disorder, but finding the antibody is pretty exciting.

Yah, maybe they can target it with a therapy - could be a way to neutralize it or whatever you call it in medical terms.

They can make an immune regulating drug that the antibodies can attach to in order to mop up the antibodies. I don't think that is difficult to do. But those drugs generally have serious side effects.

The drugs aren't specific enough and will wipe out some other antibodies in the process.

And each person will need something a bit different. Their antibodies are not all the same, some target the brain, some cause fatigue, etc, everyone is a bit different, so researchers will have to come up with many options in order for there to be one that works well for a specific person.

Sometimes I feel like Robinson Crusoe, though at least this time, the past couple of weeks, I do have the company of a bubble buddy.

Even though I've always craved for and loved my alone time, you can have too much of a good thing.

Keep safe everyone! I'm feeling there will be an end to all this, hopefully sooner rather than later.

Off topic, I bought a new laptop a few months ago and now I'm getting the message that my version of Windows 10 will soon not be supported.
For heavens sake

Adelaide store owner bans vaccinated shoppers from his shop

The owner of 'Gigantic Signs' has banned shoppers who have received the vaccine from entering his store.

Peter King placed a sign in the storefront window of Gigantic Signs on King William Street in Kent Town, Adelaide.

A warning is written in bold red letters telling vaccinated residents they are no longer welcome.

'Do not enter if you have been Covid-19 vaxxed,' the sign reads.

Brilliant way to get free publicity.

I bet vaccinated people shop there anyway if they really want something from the shop. What is he gonna do about it?

"Thanks for your business"

"Your welcome, by the way I am vaccinated" ...ha ha ha!

Vaccinated customer enjoys purchase......

 

[TootsieFootsie]

And I was wondering about his sign. I presume his business made them.

I can see some other shop owners, probably in the minority who might want to buy his no vaccinated signs.
Maybe he thinks there are a lot more business owners who think like him than there really are.

Brilliant way to get free publicity.

I think it's a safe bet most vaccinated people will shop elsewhere.
