Rants and WTF are you talking about and Coronavirus!

[Escape Artist]

I mean. The new omicron vaccine will be primarily suited towards the BA1 variant. Not the BA2 variant. So you will first need one for BA1. And then wait a bit longer for the additional BA2 booster!

Why someone chooses to to promote bad information and sew chaos without even any appreciable benefit to themselves escapes me.

Maybe this viking reject is a Loki cultist.

[PaulInZurich]

engineers schools like mine are far higher selection....

Sure you went to a high level engineering school. Just as credible as a mid fifties guy claiming he is fitter than an active triple world champion. Everybody believes you.

[PumDiPum]

Still alive.

Maybe I infected someone who infected someone who infected someone who infected someone. Who infected someone who is happy to be dead now.

Or smart enough to evade the quackzine.

Good luck on the next jab!

News of the week is the new BA 2 variant of omicron. Spread faster and is more dangerous than the original omicron. Especially among the over 60 demographic crowds who just randomly also happened to receive their 3rd or 4th shots in countries like Israel and Denmark.

As a communication guy I advice Escape Artist to get his 5th jab before the end of may!

A comm guy who sucks at communication. Sort of like failing Kindergarten.

You have to understand from your US and internet you know so few about EU and you can ask your French friend here, my obsessed follower since 2013 who can't experience same than me, in France, engineers schools like mine are far higher selection than universities and even our best like Dauphine, or medical studies, or architecture, even shorter to become engineer than doctor, 5 years after high school but highest selection on end of high school. When architects make plans, I most often need to correct, improve for technique and cost, to make their paper

Just install the toilet better next time.

Wouldn't dog my literature friends as they're a different type of smart. Respectable.

But yeah, media and communications, joke degrees where we hid big dumb guys.

3700 known deaths yesterday in US under Omicron. About 470 for 2 last days in Germany. More than 300 daily in UK since beginning of year, 360 yesterday. 435000 new cases in France yesterday, our record ever since start, when France make more test than Germany or UK, I don't know why? Kind of panic when I don't. Omicron is spreading more and more, killing more and more according to figures even in vaccination high rate countries like UK or Germany or France. Not finished yet and quite logical after Christmas / new year party. Will be under control for me when less than 100 daily deaths for weeks in Germany or France. More complicated for UK and US are really down under once more, but just normal with their medical level. Internet was never truth, the field like the steep are the truth, then You know some less than 65 kgs bicycle racers go downhill at more than 100 km / h on 12/13 % steep, just for dynamics and knowledge about, like about probability = more cases, more deaths.

Well, even if 3 or 4 jabs doesn't seem to be working for anything except increasing the all cause mortality rates and a slew of adverse effects, there is still a great reason to keep going and vaccinate more!

And that reason is all about giving BigB, PiZ and Escape Artist their eventual 10th jab!

Cause they won't escape that one! Soon!

Don't care how you got here. Just don't install my toilet so close the the bathtub next time.

You have to understand from your US and internet you know so few about EU and you can ask your French friend here, my obsessed follower since 2013 who can't experience same than me, in France, engineers schools like mine are far higher selection than universities and even our best like Dauphine, or medical studies, or architecture, even shorter to become engineer than doctor, 5 years after high school but highest selection on end of high school. When architects make plans, I most often need to correct, improve for technique and cost, to make their paper becoming real, having life rather than just paper, giving stars in eyes to people who project their future life in the place. When I see no brained sporty in US universities, when I remember brain performances tests for how fast you can find a solution in Math sup / Math spe in famous Saint Louis school when I was only 18, for sure I preferred to go to see Depeche mode in concert or run to ski and as soon I made enough money working on most of my Summer holidays, to buy a really sporty car reaching 220 on late 80's when I was just a bit more than 20 and already loving and pushing speed. 4 years later, fell in love for legendary RS500, even crashed, but I knew she was for me, rebuilt, improved and for nearly 25 years of my life. A real engineer able to build with his brain.

Germans have always been slow to change once they've started something.

But I wasn't aware of an expiration date on the Hessen mandate. If so, I'm less pessimistic about my assumption. For now though, I plan on being in Europe soon and will keep Frankfurt off my itinerary unless it changes in the next few weeks.

Remember Hessen remained closed whole 2020 when NRW reopened for around 2 months.

Something to be said about case numbers, specifically Germany's relatively low cases. In fact, oddly much lower than all of their bordering nations to the east, west, north, and south.

Are the Germans that much better at controlling the virus or is it that they just don't test at every opportunity? Test numbers are also the lowest in the region:

True, Germany have less new cases than France when French are crazy to test very often, kind of 1 million tests daily. No test for me since 9 December at Sharks, booster was enough just to buy my freedom, before buying points for my driving license. But many positive will always make deaths and I'm fully sure Germans think 239 on a day are way too much, some landers closing risky places like brothels, or no vaccine = not entering shops. I don't remember hearing same about flu.

What about "Majoring in literature, media and communications"? Couple of the football team players. I guess this means Georgia Tech thinks those are joke majors?

Wouldn't dog my literature friends as they're a different type of smart. Respectable.

Everyone in Germany needs to sacrifice for the sake of FKK. They need to avoid all covid testing except if a schnelltest required to enter an FKK. All these people testing at hospitals and doctors can just buy a can of oxygen and wait it out at home instead.

240 deaths and 120000 new cases yesterday in Germany, more than under flu.

239 deaths on 18 January.

Which is less than 600 death one week before that (11 Jan) and less than 350 2 weeks before (4 Jan). Deaths in Germany going down. You should have spend less time with cars and ski and more time paying attention in school to see a bigger picture.
