  1. From the study published by the CDC yesterday The understanding and epidemiology of COVID-19 has shifted substantially over time with the emergence and circulation of new SARS-CoV-2 variants, introduction of vaccines, and changing immunity as a result. Similar to the early period of this study, two previous U.S. studies found more protection from vaccination than from previous infection during periods before Delta predominance (3,7). As was observed in the present study after July, recent international studies have also demonstrated increased protection in persons with previous infection, with or without vaccination, relative to vaccination alone†††, §§§ (4). This might be due to differential stimulation of the immune response by either exposure type.¶¶¶ Whereas French and Israeli population-based studies noted waning protection from previous infection, this was not apparent in the results from this or other large U.K. and U.S. studies**** (4,8). Further studies are needed to establish duration of protection from previous infection by variant type, severity, and symptomatology, including for the Omicron variant.
  2. Is this any different than people saying vaccines don't work because someone gets Covid after being vaccinated? Both clearly provide protection but aren't bulletproof. Studies released yesterday show protection against Delta was ranked: 1. Vaccination plus prior infection 2. Prior Infection only 3. Vaccination only 4. No vaccination and no prior infection https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/prior-covid-infection-more-protective-than-vaccination-during-delta-surge-us-2022-01-19/ https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7104e1.htm?s_cid=mm7104e1_w
  3. Big fan of this low carb IPA, too. Less calories even than a Michelob Ultra. 3 carbs per.
  4. They have them at Whole Foods but I just get off Amazon.
  5. I like these. Keep them in the freezer. Even eat them for dessert when not doing Keto.
  6. That’s a weird way to say you agree with what I’ve posted. But I’ll take what I can get.
  7. No. All I’m saying is that I disagree with the statement you made I quoted. Had we had a highly rate of vaccination we could not have avoided Omicron altogether. And what? I disagree with the statement he made that if the US would’ve vaxxed more we could’ve avoided Omicron. Do you believe that? -signed fully vaccinated guy who just had Omicron.

  9. We represent like 4% of the world’s unvaccinated and like you say, it didn’t come from here. It’s tearing through highly vaccinated communities, states and countries with no regard. If everyone was double vaxxed with fresh boosters, we probably could’ve slowed it a little but only delayed it. We definitely couldn’t have avoided it altogether.
  10. Best role?
  11. That could literally be anyone. I assumed we were talking about the thespian in the video who won an Academy Award for their performance.
  12. Who is talking about Richard Gere?
  13. This, Iron Eagle, Iron Eagle II.....
  14. Not sure the last time I actually saw someone pass a concussion test and return. I figured they held everyone out no matter.
  15. Parsons was in on the FG.
  16. There is in the Cloak Room
  17. IMO, American lives could've been saved over the past two years by more people helping mitigate risk. But I still believe we'd be in the exact same spot right now regarding Omicron looking forward.
  18. Other two kids dinged on Wednesday. 11 year old had a headache so we tested him - positive. Tested 12 year old because might was well, and he was too. 11 year old's only symptom was the headache which is now gone. 12 year old hasn't had a single symptom. Not one. Wife can't buy a positive test and she's about to pull her hair out having to quarantine for other people. Hell, she must've had it first around the holidays and just not know. kids will be back in school Tuesday and we're returning to normal life at that point (I've already been back at work this week masked and 9 year old back at school all week).
