My preference is to root for being able to hand out another Herman Cain Award, but I’m open to alternatives.
I just want people to accept we are facing the incorrigible here.

Parents went to the UK for a couple weeks and both got COVID, thanks churchill. Thankfully they’re vaxxed and boostered up.
Meanwhile i continue to run hotter than the sun since I’ve been doing all kinds of social stuff for 2+ years and my only COVID experience came from my wife. Haven’t even been sick during that time.
LOL.
TBH pretty bad round here a few weeks ago. 14yr old daughter, twice vaxxed got the rona for a second time but your UK mate Church has evaded the lurgy til this present day - reckon I might be in that 10% that can’t contract (lol)
Hope the parents make a quick recovery - sounds like they’ve already shaken it off so good news there.
Peace
I registered to get the latest booster shot but haven’t received any contact stating that it’s available for me.
Was hoping to get it before flying back to America but I don’t like my chances.
@sriracha : this is fine
At least I don’t get 10 mosquito bites every day. Oh, wait.
Fun!
Mosquitoes are really bad here. I guess there’s a new species called the tiger mosquito that popped up somehow?
Anyway, I’m not sharing this article with my wife just yet. She’ll never go outside again.
Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, the defendant, @sriacha, deliberately withheld information leading to his wife’s death. We will present evidence of an online post….

Yeah these new mosquitos are the worst, they cropped up only in the last 10 years. They’re tiny, fast, nearly silent, and target the legs/ankles/feet. LA used to be pretty mosquito-free. I’m having work done to my house right now so many doors/windows are open when they normally wouldn’t be, so it’s been really bad even inside.
I think these are in NJ too. The last two summers have been awful for me. Tiny little mosquitoes but the bites welt up and itch like crazy for a week or more.
Yep!
My wife got this during our wedding, it wasn’t awful but she showed symptoms and went to a couple doctors to figure out what it was. This was during the Zika virus craze so she thought she had acquired that.
It used to drive me nuts when he was a regular poster on Sam Webb’s message board, back when Trump was rising into power.
Heads up, youre gonna start seeing this circulating in the derper circles.
What you wont see is this, from the article.
“That said, the risk identified in the FDA’s study appears to be very small — roughly 3 strokes or transient ischemic attacks for every 100,000 doses given — and the study found it may be primarily driven by the high-dose or adjuvanted flu vaccines, which are specially designed to rev up the immune system so it mounts a stronger response to the shot.”
“driven by the flu vaccine”
yeah that won’t be repeated anywhere
Aren’t strokes wayyyyy more common than 3/100,000 people over 85? What’s the methodology in linking the strokes to the vaccines, and what’s the margin of error? This shit shouldn’t even be reported on with such insignificant numbers.

It’s like reading 3 paragraphs why the stock market went down 0.5% today.
Can someone please read this and let me know if it’s worth the time?
I like Bethany McLean from her long-ago Enron book, but the reviews are pretty odd and leave me wondering if I’m just going to hate it.
Also, wtf is this?

What’s also weird is the book has been out for 3 weeks and there are only 10 reviews.
From CDC data via Your Local Epidemiologist:
Not great! Love to see my state of Ohio sitting at 89% and getting a special shoutout:
This provides large pockets of unvaccinated people—a breeding ground for infectious diseases. Take Ohio, for example, which had the 9th lowest coverage in MMR vaccination last year. It’s no coincidence that there was a measles outbreak last year—85 children got sick, and 36 were hospitalized.
The big question is, how on earth is Mississippi leading the country on this?
Also, it’s becoming more common (2023 relative to 2021) to believe that vaccines cause autism. Cool!
