The last time something Brazilian was deemed a threat in the UK: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Jean_Charles_de_Menezes
India saw us in the UK as kings at being at it, so decided to knock us down a peg by letting Kumb Mela go ahead.
How do we as a union of nations respond to this?

One of our biggest states (Amazonas) are out of oxygen and people are dying from asphyxiation with covid on hospitals.
Prior to that, the governor demanded some places to be closed down during the holiday time, people/polititians/merchants complained, he backtracked on that, and now we see the results. The state is totally fucked up.

You would think that wouldnt you
This happened last night in two hospitals in Portugal, ambulances waiting for hours in front of the hospital as they were trying to get beds for the patients.
"Covid Lung" X-rays of congestion and scarring seem to be fairly consistent with other pneumonia cases taken at time of infection.
We have had now multiple people on this forum with Covid and to those people that might think that it killed your lungs looking just from that image, the American Thoracic Society released a related study recently. https://www.thoracic.org/about/newsroom/post-covid-complications.pdf
This doesn't mean there aren't long term health risks with Covid (as the study mentions) of course. It's nothing to fuck with for sure.

Of the patients that attended for outpatient follow-up, we report reassuring findings regarding
objective post-COVID respiratory complications at a median follow-up timepoint of 75 days, but
clear evidence that patients have not returned to full fitness. Our pragmatic approach of repeat
radiography followed by CT for persistent abnormalities produced an abnormal imaging rate of
4%. There was also no association with abnormal imaging and severe disease.
The presence of normal chest radiography in the majority of our cohort, coupled with very low rates of significant
desaturation during 6MWT (3%) and a relatively large cohort size, suggest that clinically relevant fibrosis is an uncommon consequence of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Conservatives already backtracking on vaccine availability for all adults. Gone from June to September now lmao.
You can't waste any doses but I'm sure that they could've got better candidates than the hospital manager's kids.
By Punished* Go To PostIt's a weird one. Obviously there's nepotism on display here, but judging by the online reaction a lot of people haven't actually read the story. The two 'children' in question are both adults and work in the hospital. So they're at a slightly higher risk of infection than the average person. I'd rather the vaccines be used on anyone in a pinch. Any blowback on this will just see wastage of vaccines which is exactly what we don't want.

Look at Ewan McKenna's reaction in the replies to the tweet. Ireland's worst journalist on full display there. Doesn't bother actually reading the article and when called out on it goes radio silent.
Neither kid appears to be on the 'frontline'. Surely porters or cleaners could've taken them.
They couldn't have found anyone 50+ to give them to? 20 year olds will literally be at the bottom of the priority list.
(Fair play that 9 of them at least did go to OAPs)

Some positive news.
Not to mention using quotes by a far right party.
By diehard Go To PostI mean read the headline and follow it up with the article.
hopefully this is bad reporting because.. what..
Not to mention using quotes by a far right party.
By Pennywise Go To PostI mean read the headline and follow it up with the article.I don't know if vetting the politics of German newspapers is something I would be great at.

By DiPro Go To Postmaybe start vetting the politics of american newspapersGood idea, no more NY Times from me.
this is a joke
By Pennywise Go To PostSome positive news.I wish there was more info about this. I thought we established from the trials that there wasn't a high enough presence of IgA antibodies from some vaccines to rule out the abililty for vaccinated people to be contagious (at least by using the presence of antibodies as the basis to determine contagiousness). Are they actually now seeing a significant rise in IgA antibodies or is this doctor basing their theory purely on IgG antibodies?

But considering Israel and their health officials share their data with the vaccine companies as part of the deal, plus they've been using the vaccine for a while now, so they should have some early results.
We'll see about that.

Looks like the antibodies rise to a good level.
By Pennywise Go To PostI got no idea.Mmmm I read that Israel is extending their lockdown because the Pfizer vaccine isn't as effective as stated. Many vaccinated have contracted the virus
