Oh.

I misunderstood what I read, then.

Thanks for setting me straight.

Pfizer and Moderna uses mRNA. Now I'm certainly not well read on this, but I understand that mRNA issues instructions to your cells to produce the Covid-19 spike protein which your immune system then recognizes and attacks. There are many things happening in the immune system so I'm unsure of the detail.

J&J and Astra Zeneca uses older disabled virus technology specifically the AD26 platform. I think this is what you are thinking of.

In the cities we use Pfizer. For medical, police, teachers and people in rural areas they use J&J, since it's one dose it's more practical for various reasons.

Pfizer appears to be more effective than J&J though.

How much more effective is Pfizer in comparison to J&J against Delta variant?

I've justed picked up reports from the media websites so no expert, but Pfizer is better imo. Perhaps by double digits % effectiveness difference.

Though they all seem to be very effective against death and severe disease.

Perhaps it's the booster for Pfizer versus one J&J injection that makes it more effective.

Who knows there's an Elmer Fudd language selection on Google?

Edit: it's gone now. That was freaky. Should have taken a screenshot.

 

[Jings]

It's available again in language settings.

Why are you in the language selection?

Somehow accidentally changed to Afrikaans, then found language settings.

Sounds like my housemate that swears the random changes on her phone wasn't her. Right.

Maybe it's not her. Weird things happen on my Huawei too. The other day it started searching through photos of Australia by itself on Firefox. Today it started googling wechat in the middle of an argument.

Feels like the phone has spy features.

Who plays tabletop games?

Who plays tabletop games?

Yes, recently been playing Demeo on my VR headset: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1484280/Demeo/
And then play board games every few weeks via Tabletop simulator: https://store.steampowered.com/app/286160/Tabletop_Simulator/ you download all the board games from the workshop for the app: https://steamcommunity.com/app/286160/workshop/

At home, used to play Siedler von Catan pretty often. Used to occasionally play D&D games, but the game is a bit too much effort, too many rules and turns are a bit slow, interesting but slow.

Very interesting. Have you considered a YT video to demonstrate? I can imagine these games are better on a VR set.

Why are you in the language selection?

It's an option. Why can't it be explored?

You might never get it back to a language you understand.
