Coronavirus

. Don’t know why you think that’s a lot. Crap it’s typical to catch a few hundred in Salem Mass below you in a few days if you time the arrival right and that’s only going out about four hours a day
So you're catching a few hundred (300) fish in 4 hours? That means you're boating a fish every 75 seconds (300/4x60)*60), and that doesn't include time for unhooking, measuring, tagging, rerigging, if needed, and casting.

You must be quite efficient in your fishing, or really full of it.

I guess you've learned from the best how to tell a tale...

I read that as 300 fish over a few days at 4 hours fishing time each day.
 
Fair point...

OK, let's redo the math to 100 fish a day in 4 hours, which means 25 fish an hour, so that's 2.4 minutes per fish, without all the other caveats. Heck, when I catch one over the slot fish, I spend at least 3-4 minutes between unhooking and reviving it to the point it can swim away on its own.

Still, hyperbole...

I guess the key phrase was 300 fish OVER A FEW DAYS
 
And here's another potential fly in the ointment in the very convoluted origin equation. Don't have any details besides this news flash, but the fact that China was sensitive gives great pause...

New data links pandemic’s origins to raccoon dogs at Wuhan market​

Genetic samples from the market were recently uploaded to an international database and then removed after scientists asked China about them.​
Don't like quoting myself, but I want to clearly state what these new data show, and don't show. The nightly news said everything, but the way it was presented strongly suggested it was a validation of the Live Market Origin. You had to read between the lines to understand what it all really means.

What did this study show?
  • That a Raccoon Dog at the Wuhan Market had COVID virus, that's all.

What didn't it show?
  • How the Raccoon Dog got infected
    • Was it transmitted to the RD by a human?
    • Was it transmitted to the RD from another RD?
    • Was it transmitted to the RD from a different animal?
    • Was it caused by a leak from a lab?
As I mentioned in a previous post, it's just "interesting data", but in no way provides any definitive proof of the origins of COVID. I'm just extremely upset in how this is being presenting such that it's a very strong statement supporting the Live Market Origin. In my professional evaluation, all it does is not preclude the Live Market Origin as a possibility...

Crap, just heard it again on another news program and threw something at the TV...

How log does immunity last?

A new study

Covid-19 Immunity Study
two thoughts:
"other studies to date have shown that protection against more serious outcomes wanes much more slowly than against symptomatic infection, and that the shots continue to protect pretty well against these more dire events."

also, despite the quicker than expected (by some) waning, this report does not counter the notion that if everyone got vaxed and boosted, we can drive the virus into relative obscurity, with orders of magnitude reduction in opportunities for dangerous mutations.
 
If memory serves me were not these Vaccines initially touted as 90ish % effective ? Not trying to stir the pot, just asking.

Overall, the researchers found that one month after people received two doses of either mRNA vaccine (from Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech), the vaccine from AstraZeneca, or the shot from Sinovac, the vaccine effectiveness was 53% in protecting against symptoms of COVID-19.

Well, since you stirred the pot, here's how I understand things....
I'm sure the data showed 90ish % reduction in infection of the virus that was prevalent at the time the studies were run (on actual humans) and the data was collected.
Unfortunately, not everyone got vaccinated and many folks were lax in their social distancing and mask wearing. We let the virus replicate many orders of magnitude more than it should have. In any event, whether or not it was preventable, the virus mutated, and continues to mutate.
These mutations were not as readily addressed by the original vaccines. That's why effectiveness went down during the Omicron surge. You may recall that newer boosters were said to be more closely directed to the newer, more prevalent mutations.
No one ever said the vaccine would last forever, and the quicker than what many expected waning in effectiveness is likely related to the new virus strains.
It remains exceptionally effective at keeping folks alive and out of the hospital.
Also, that "natural immunity" that was touted by some has also been shown to wane over time, especially against new strains.
 
"You're not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations," Biden said on July 21, 2021. One year later, he did.

It’s gone now. I hear more about Monkeypox.

I must have gotten it backwards, but it worked. I crammed Clorox up the sphincter and never got it again since fall of 2020. Fucking Union got everybody Essential Worker shirts sporting a face diaper. Raise was unheard of as Fauci had you all stay home. Fuck the teamsters I would tell them (lawyers) all bought by liberal lobbyists. Now when they send a mass text to all the stewards I reply with crap like this

chicken shits ruined it all. As the banks, malls, and stores are going belly up. When you want to blame, look in the mirror. I’ll tell you what though. It was a fucking fabulous commute with everyone staying home. The guys that run the traffic signs were a big laugh trying to lay guilt on everyone to wear a face diaper and stay home (pussies!).
Just a flu and it’s gone.
