OK, I admit the middle school comment was out of line. My apologies. But, I do think anonymous sources are of little use in convincing others of anything. My 2 cents.

Well, we have found an area of agreement. The CD is terribly slow in getting testing done and assembling the statistics. And, after a year and a half there is no excuse for it. Just today I heard an interview with Dr. Gottlieb bemoaning the fact that we have to get a lot of badly needed...

Then it's no more credible than middle school gossip.

Here's some Alas, some of our leaders don't seem to know how to suggest in a polite way. They continue to insult people of different viewpoints in order to increase compliance. I doesn't work, but they keep trying, and hoping for a different result. It's quite sad, IMHO.

Can you please post the source(s) for these reports? Inquiring minds want to know Meanwhile, here's some information from Israel which has an excellent system of recording and analyzing statistical information on health...

Alas, it looks like wearing a mask while Delta making its way through the population may be wise. I don't like wearing a mask, but having known several people who suffered terribly from Covid, I know I would like getting Covid far less than wearing a mask. Time to break out the KN95 masks I...

I think you will find that the main reason to get vaccinated is not to avoid restrictions (though that is great!) but to avoid getting very sick and possibly perishing. Masks may be useful, but the real protection from this disease is the vaccine. Masks add an additional small layer of...

Ok.

I added the missing word. Better late than never. My reply is that there is very little TB in my area. What little there is was brought in by immagrants and travelers, and it has been controlled by the health department. Quite simply, it is not a significant threat where I live. I hope the...

Good news from a 6 month study of the Pfizer vaccine's effectiveness: Any symptomatic infection 2 months 96% 2-4 months 90% 4-6 months 84% For protection vs severe illness solid all the way through at least 6 months *97%* Look up Ad Hominem attacks.
