    Saw the article about suicide. Do with all the stress and isolation people stayed alive.

    An argument on the right was that controlling Covid means more suicide. As usual they were wrong.

    Guessing the people who would have offed themselves got extra cash from the gub'ment. No better time to be unemployed than when there was the $600 UE kicker.

    Covid variant from South Africa was able to ‘break through’ Pfizer vaccine in Israeli study

    KEY POINTS
    • The coronavirus variant first discovered in South Africa is able to evade some of the protection of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, according to a new Israeli study.
    • The researchers found the prevalence of B.1.351 among patients who received two doses of the vaccine was about eight times higher than those who were unvaccinated.
    • The researchers in the study noted the main caveat of the study was the same sample size.

    This summary is accidentally phrased in a very misleading way.

    It makes it sound like vaccinated people got 8x more covid than un-vaccinated.

    Israel is trying to get out of paying for the vaccines they've received so far.

    Whistler CLOSES as British Columbia confirms largest cluster of Brazil COVID variant outside of Brazil - with at least 877 cases - and nearly a QUARTER linked to the ski resort

    • The B.C. ski resort will remain closed until the beginning of its summer season on May 21
    • Officials in British Columbia closed the resort after confirming 877 cases of Brazil's P.1 variant in the province
    • About 84 people who visited ski resort tested positive for variant and none reported travel outside of Canada
    • Federal quarantine of 14 days applies for ALL travelers entering Canada - even those with NO symptoms
    • The quarantine period includes a mandatory three night stay government-authorized hotel starting at $200 a night
    • The P.1 variant has led to increasing infections in young people and it appears to be more contagious and more capable of reinfecting people than other variants

    The founder of the PCR test, an expert in microbiology disagreed. Said Fauci is more politician than scientist.
