That’s a lot of whiskey.
Would Bill Gates approve? .

He is ok with it as long as he gets to put nano bots in our elixir

Got a fourth jab. Dodged it so far (no idea how) including on 4 overseas trips since April but heading to ‘Murika in a few days for the first time since Feb 2020 and it still seems rampant there - especially considering I’ll be in MAGA country. You gotta think the luck is gonna run out eventually - or maybe @south of heaven and I are simply destined to bump uglies .

I’ve only been pricked three times but you have inspired me to get one more shot,
just been a bit slack tbh.
Hey don’t forget your cowboy boots mate heading into MAGA country lol
What about stopping into Disneyland for a few hours, Toontown always going off.

If we manage to dodge it till next year we should get some special funding for " research " like 80 million in funding

There's every chance you've had it and just showed little or no symptoms tbh. I haven't officially had it either, but the number of cases that kept coming from my kids childcare centre alone meant that we were exposed to it daily. I took the old Trump line of just not testing...

Apparently Blood Bank testing of donations showing something like 50% (I think it was) of all samples taken is showing patient has had C19 and many surprised to know they had had it.

Only 3 times?
Spend more Saturday nights out SD .

Yeah, same, I only got around to the fourth for ‘Murika. Might not stop me eventually getting it but the vax would be tweaked now for newer variants so worth it.

Yep, I’ve ordered my rental ‘truck’ to pick up at the plane station - but only if it was fitted with a gun rack. Might even go a Trump rally. Ah, MAGA country .

I finally just had it and really maybe 2nd day I actually had a decent headache a bit of a sore neck and runny nose and my voice definitely changed like I sounded way sicker than I felt that’s about it. So at least I have a bit more immunity now.

Wish you a speedy recovery my bro

Mandatory Covid isolation scrapped. No more Covid leave government payments either.

So it’s pretty much done now I’ve felt sick since I had it but admit I’ve not tested and I’ve even bumped into a friend who was walking her dog and like oh yeah maybe no hugs and stand back a bit cos I have COVID but fuck the dog needs to go for a walk and I need to get out of the house for a five minute break from my toddler who all have it as well. People don’t care anymore

‘Mistakes were made’ - thanks for the scoop, it was a once in a century event. Cool, so there might be some lessons but everyone has 20/20 hindsight don’t they…

I would like to see a royal commission just to see chairman Dan and Anna look like fuckwits. That’s probably why it won’t happen as tempting as it would be for Albo to fire a shot at the former government for something new

 

[The DoggFather]

Have they isolated it yet?

 

[The DoggFather]

Have they isolated it yet?

I'll take it as a no.

 

[The DoggFather]

Also why the fuck would they create a new strand that has an 80% kill rate?

Warfare? Depopulation? They are bored?

That is pretty alarming

 

[Powerslide]

I believe the new strand was created to better understand the virus. i.e. what caused the omicron variant to be milder than previous strains. However please note the 80% kill rate is in specific mice where the original Covid-19 killed 100% of these mice. I.E. the created variant was less effective than the original variant but still significantly worse than omicron. So they disproved what they thought was causing omicron to be mild.

Unfortunately one of the few ways to study why a virus behaves the way it does is to cause a specific mutation and then see what it does. These kind of studies help us prepare to fight future pandemics. We all have to hope that these kinds of studies are done in controlled and safe environments.

So what do they do with the more deadly strand now? Keep it in a lab until it gets "leaked out" when needed?

So @Rodzilla was right calling the vaxxed "guinea pigs"?
