Ready for another round of COVID vaxes?
#1
It turns out that we have reportedly experienced a "summer surge" of COVID... and thus the FDA is anticipating approval of a new round of what they still refer to as "vaccines."

From CNN: FDA may greenlight updated Covid-19 vaccines as soon as this week, sources say
From ARS Technica: This year’s summer COVID wave is big; FDA may green-light COVID shots early

The backstory is attributed to 'unnamed sources who know these things'... I can't imagine why they would propagate hearsay, but hey, this is America.
 

The agency is expected to greenlight updated mRNA vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech that target a strain of the virus called KP.2, said the sources, who declined to be named because the timing information isn’t public. It was unclear whether the agency simultaneously would authorize Novavax’s updated shot, which targets the JN.1 strain.


I really can't get passed the "head scratching" nature of refusing to call it targeted gene therapy, or never mentioning the fact that as far as 'prevention' or 'containment' it is utterly ineffective.  But that's just me.
 

Last year, the FDA gave the green light for the 2023–2024 COVID shots on September 11, close to the peak of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in that year's summer wave. This year, the summer wave began earlier and, by some metrics, is peaking at much higher levels than in previous years.

Currently, wastewater detection of SARS-CoV-2 shows "very high" virus levels in 32 states and the District of Columbia. An additional 11 states are listed as having "high" levels. Looking at trends, the southern and western regions of the country are currently reporting SARS-CoV-2 levels in wastewater that rival the 2022–2023 and 2023–2024 winter waves, which both peaked at the very end of December.



I wont belabor my opinion, you can probably guess it...  Let's hope that this round actually qualifies as "safe and effective' versus the ongoing reality "sudden and unexpected."

Nope!
watched a interesting vid by Mike Rowe with Gavin De Becker an as it turns out the French Company manufacturing the boosters did no human trials but DID test it on 6 mice. 

A pharmaceutical company could only afford 6 mice??!!!!
But I digress...

Covid part @ 1:13:00 
The entire vid is stellar, an obviously this guy is pimping his book, but shockingly it's prolly worth buying. If only for the Pharma info & stats in it.

It is going around again here in the Caribbean.   I can tell, because the medical professional staff are wearing masks when out in public.   God forbid TPTB actually bother to convey to us that another wave was tastefully served up by the incoming visitors, most likely cruise ship passengers.   Why cruise ship passengers?   Because the minimal screening doesn't apply to them.   If a person is noticeably sick on a flight, they might be sidelined.    Cruise ship passengers have no such restriction.   In fact, they can be completely bombed -- unlike flight passengers -- and still manage to board the ships.   Good for them.  Once here, they are encouraged to bump into themselves and everyone else while they navigate the narrow streets of downtown, often in pursuit of:  a beer, and/or a bathroom.    We islanders don't feel ill toward them.   Mostly sorry that we don't have something more substantial to offer than being shoulder-to-shoulder with other passengers as they migrate into t-shirt and other shit shops and the occasional jewelry store.   Jewels are apparently really cheap here, as compared with other places on the tour.  

Nobody here takes any precautions any more.   We have a bunch of immune compromised elderly, and most people seem to subscribe to the "gonna get it anyway" mindset and feel free to shop at the grocery stores, coughing, and picking up stuff that they don't purchase.   Here's a clue:   Please for the love of [insert deity of choice] make sure you want to purchase an item before you touch it.   Not too hard, is it skippy?  Don't pick up a loaf of bread, cough on it and put it back.   It's bad enough that the checker has to pick up the stuff you've coughed on.   

Some people here seem it as "thinning of the herd."  Yeah.  You don't want to push that narrative too much.   Some of us old bastards are really skilled with 'thinning'.

There was a similar narrative here regarding a work type scenario that I was hearing a lot about. It involved an employee that was obviously ill with something, but refused to take time off, and ended up making everyone else ill. She had that mindset of: "Well, you're going to get it anyway.".

I think maybe I might've caught whatever they had too, but it didn't really effect me that much.

Both me and the husband of another worker were calling her a sociopath.

There's a lot of sociopathy in the entire COVID event and narrative.  It echoes around from things like "I'm gonna get it anyway" to "Get the vax or you'll go sterile."

It is all part and parcel of the engineered aspect of the response.

COVID is now a reality that lives among the countless influenza variants, the hemorrhagic viri, and all the rest of the natural ecosystem... it will figure in the media greatly until all possible profit has been extracted from people concerned about healthy life.  Then it will become one more spook or phantom to threaten people... watch the evolution of the monkeypox in the media...and note the repetition and 'frequent flyer' talking heads and 'spokespersons.'

Being sick sucks.  But being threatened with possible sickness is a poison of a different kind.

I may have had the damn virus, but whatever it was - it was not something I wish to share.

Our dear friends in Florida are down with the 'Rona.    It has been kicking their asses for the past two weeks.  Both parents work and are home sick.   Both kids are also home sick.   It has been bad for them.   It has been worse for them that previous variants.   That surprised me, because I was under the impression that the most recent Covid variant -- KP1, KP2 and KP3 -- were fairly mild.  

Now here's a worry.   Yes, this is anecdotal, but my buddy is not a liar.   His job takes him to people's homes, so he still uses the LFT self-covid test.   He tested negative with the LFT.   His wife went to hospital because she is immune compromised, and they tested her positive for Covid.   

That is not conclusive, however if the LFTs no longer work for the latest mutations/variants, then we are in a world of shit.
