People Are Noticing How The Scenario Of The 1918 Spanish Flu Seems Eerily Similar To What We’re Currently Going Through

As much as we'd like to believe that our civilization has progressed unrecognizably during the last century, some things will probably always stay the same. These may include people who deny actual medicine and vaccines or think they know viruses and diseases better than doctors who have studied...

Marr on catching Covid after being double vaccinated

The BBC's Andrew Marr fell ill with Covid-19, despite being vaccinated twice.

Not really any major news there, the vaccine protects against severity and hospitalisation, it isn’t a magic potion that prevents infection altogether.

A 90-year-old woman died after becoming infected with two different strains of Covid-19. She lived alone, receiving nursing care at home, and hadn’t been vaccinated.

Though at that age it’s quite likely she would have died from infection with one strain or even influenza…

I think you are missing the point

I think you are missing the point

No, vaccination protects against all current variants, having a mutated or multi variants would still see protection, secondly, being 90 would mean even a mild viral infection could be deadly.

That makes an unvaccinated 90 year old dying while infected with one, two or ten variants a non-story.

No, you silly sausage. Belgium is already one of the best places in the world for chocolate, now they want this title too.

Your pets can catch Covid from you, and cats appear more susceptible than dogs

The more time a cat spent with its owner, the higher the risk of infection, new research finds.

In the US 99% of deaths are now unvaccinated people. That's pretty stark data.

Simultaneous vaccination for people aged over 30, 40 and 50

The task force for vaccination against covid-19 in Portugal will implement a system that involves the initiation of simultaneous vaccination for various age groups with a one week interval between them, between the end of May and the beginning of June.

www.theportugalnews.com

The over-50s will start to be vaccinated first; a week later jabs will start to be given to the over-40s, and one week later the over-30s.

The objective, according to reports, is to take advantage of Johnson & Johnson's vaccines for the over-50s, and use Pfizer and Moderna for other age groups.

Sounds like BS

Vaccination plan for COVID-19 - ePortugal.gov.pt

ePortugal, the central portal for Public Administration services.

eportugal.gov.pt

In the first phase, 400,000 people over 50 years of age with heart failure, coronary heart disease, kidney failure or respiratory disease are vaccinated. Also, part of this initial phase are 250,000 professionals and residents of nursing homes and long-term care units, as well as 300,000 health professionals, the armed forces, security forces and critical services.

In the second phase, 1.8 million people over 65 (with or without pathologies) and 900,000 people aged between 50 and 64 with diabetes, active malignant neoplasia, chronic kidney disease, liver failure, obesity or hypertension will be vaccinated.

The third phase includes the remaining population living in Portugal, with a third and fourth priority groups still to be concluded. An expansion of vaccination sites is planned in this phase.

My neighbours aged 70 both had Covid 6 months ago and were very ill. After ten days they started taking Ivermectin and recovered (who knows if it was a factor). The husband wants to get the vaccine but the wife doesn't as she had cancer before (her reasoning, no logic there). So there is the vaccine hesitancy factor.

There seems to be a lot of vaccine hestitancy in Her*anus for white over 50 people. Annecdotally based on my housemate that actually has contact with people, unlike me.

Ok, she's got Alzheimers so doesn't mean to get things wrong sometimes. She's been vaccinated so covid is now the least of her worries.
