#2 similar to previous variants, the vaccine is less effective against infection but has some protection against hospitalization and fatality

probably also true of immunity via previous infection

#7 Well,ole XBB 1.5 caught me a couple of weeks ago...I certainly wasn't trying to catch it. Still recovering from the lingering respiratory symptoms (week 4). It was much milder than the 2021's Covid version which was very rough.

#9 So Dr. Emanuel cares about the elderly? Wasn't he the guy who was basically saying that everyone over 70 should voluntarily walk into a gas chamber a few years ago?

#10 That’s the one, Secret Master. He’s a professor of medical ethics, so he’s vastly more sophisticated than “First do no harm.” His brother is Rahm Emanuel.

This is the first time I’ve seen his name given as Zeke instead of the formal Ezekiel. Perhaps that confused you, too.

#11 Zeke. Nice and cuddly. Sorta like "You remember little Joey Mengele?"

#12 Anyone still wearing a mask is mentally ill.

#13 Well. Anyone still wearing a mask thinks they're smarter than you. They think you are a dirty creature who is threatening their good health just by existing.

They are advertising their innate odiousness as a person. Probably not a good idea overall.

So, insane? Maybe. Tone deaf weapons grade stupid? All the way...

#14 I saw a couple of masks made out of Seagrams pouches. Is that the level of quality that is needed?

#15 Super, those should work as long as you keep the Seagram’s level in your blood correspondingly high.
