GF n I tried warning family back starting in JAN 2020. was surprised how early i put alerts out. ppl do as they want. MSM and CDC didn't teach anyone but caused chaos and confusion. led to my reverse CT. surprised the Gf has taken things so well thus far. she realizes we may never see rfamily again way things are going. not easy we accept what we can't do anything about i guess. at this moment we have 3 types of ppl. those who avoided the virus. those vaxed and those who were infected but no vax. hard to tell 1 from another. so we avoid all as best we can. vaxers may b more spreaders than the infected.or both can b. crystal ball looks darker each month. JAZZZ50 2020 The SHTF literally as TP ran out. we went from being over the target, to actually being the target. too close to the truth. if i had a dollar for everytime someone says "merge" without using the word, i'd b so green i'd b King of Mars. |

All given the same IV as preventative. They were high risk (due to age). Also, given what we are told about the R0 I’m surprised more weren’t infected. All of the larger group were using at home kits about every two days. Also possible it wasn’t Delta. Last Edited by Guythu on 08/02/2021 05:44 AM |

User ID: 52530071 United States 08/02/2021 07:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ground Truth Report Indianapolis - J&J Vaccine vs. Delta Variant Quoting: Riff-Raff Okay, I now have credible and specific evidence of vaccine fade over time, Delta variant breakthrough, or a combination of both. Our neighbor received the J&J vaccine earlier this year. Don't remember when exactly, but it was prior to April. Two weeks ago she got infected and diagnosed with the Delta variant of Covid, which she caught from a coworker who had just returned from Florida with a fever and sinus congestion. He was an anti-masker and insisted he just had a sinus infection. Except he didn't. Our neighbor has been off work for the past two weeks. Symptoms included headache, fever, and sinus congestion. This is not theory or hyperbole. Either the vaccine loses its efficacy over time or the Delta variant has achieved some level of breakthrough. It is also possible that both conditions are occurring simultaneously. I've been holding back on my opinion until I felt sure enough to say something, because I don't like to overreact. But I think it's time to acknowledge that we're going down this road again, and it's going to be worse this time around than it was in 2020. Raffette and I are reviewing our supplies with the goal of approaching a one-year supply of non-perishables this time, rather than six months in the freezer and six months in the shelter. I'll also be restocking my gasoline supplies earlier than normal this year. I have refitted our P100 respirators with new filters and put them in our vehicles. We're going back to wearing masks in public places, mandate or no mandate. Make your preparations and begin protecting yourself NOW, people. Seriously. We've barely scraped the surface of the rabbit hole so far. Stay safe, everyone. UGH! I got my J&J in March! Mrs Spinalcracker has to work with the public, but is masking up at work. She never stopped. Looks like I am back to staying in and away from people for a while. What do you think about boosters, Riff? Boosters are going to have to be a fact of life for the next few years, I'm afraid, and that's assuming they can adjust the vaccines to new variants as quickly as the new variants come out. We were warned about this last year, so I am honestly not surprised in the least.

User ID: 52530071 United States 08/02/2021 07:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Over half the deer tested in Michigan have been exposed to SARS-CoV-2 Quoting: Guythu On Wednesday, the US Department of Agriculture released some rather disturbing news: a survey of wild deer populations has found that large numbers of the animals seem to have been exposed to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The finding indicates that there's a very large population of wild animals in North America that could serve as a reservoir for the virus, even if we were to get its circulation within the human population under control. [link to arstechnica.com (secure)] as RW pointed out the other day, how are the deer being infected? it is quite odd that it is so widespread in just 1 year. deer do not travel, and mingle as mush as humans. ain't driving around. i'd like to see more spec's from the report. did they do 1 area and assume for the whole state? i doubt that but sill would like to see the info. couldn't find any the other day. other than the hikers at state parks,ppl aren't out in the woods as much as before either. video games keep kids entertained instead. not many deer walk up and hug ppl either. for it to b so wide spread, it must b in more wildlife as well. racoons,skunks, feral cats,coyotes. so did it jump from garbage to wild dogs than to the deer? or from cats? this does hint at some intel from UD way back. Short answer: They don't know. But they suspect it's a domestic animal that is transferring the virus to deer, not humans. Their samples were from multiple states. Illinois deer only tested 7% positive in their sample. Michigan deer - 60%. Outdoor cats? From the fleas, like plague? SO FAR, there has been zero evidence to indicate SC2 is transmissible by insects. But with each new variant, who knows? HIV was never transmitted by insects, and we know SC2 contains HIV proteins, so hopefully that never becomes a thing.

Quoting: dyin If the shots worked, they shouldn't need antibody treatment, right???? Won't that put pressure on it to mutate further? The key data point is to find out how long ago each "breakthrough" patient received their vaccination. If each case is four to six months or more since vaccination, then we're looking at antibody fading, not actual vaccine breakthrough. If we start seeing people who have been fully vaccinated for less than 90 days becoming infected on a regular basis, then vaccine breakthrough starts to become more likely, and is a far, far worse situation. Remember that we knew antibodies generated by an infection faded after about six months last summer. There's no reason that antibodies generated by a vaccine wouldn't do the same.

It's all good, SN. It's partially cabin fever, too. Congrats on your hydroponics too. When we were still living out in the cotton field, I was almost ready to build a system with fish. I gave up on it for several reasons, but the killer for me was I couldn't get yellow perch. I don't like a lot of fish and can't stand tilapia. I'm not going to get enough produce to do much with, but I expected that. Mostly, I wanted tomatoes that tasted like tomatoes. I wish I'd gotten a couple of Beefsteak or Big Boys, though. I got Early Bush because I've grown them in Texas and they're easy to grow. The heirlooms I tried 2 years ago didn't do well at all. |
