The new variant Omicron is a game changer, multiple times faster in spreading, if you are in t

There are tissue boxes in every hotel room I stay in, every place, every time, one star, two star, five star. And I do always have a bottle of water in my room on tour. Same at home. I sure do have allergies, more or less, nice to have tissue paper around. I am sure Mick simply need to blow his nose and drink water when he is on stage. Not all the time, but some times. Nothing I would worry about

I purged the forum database some years ago, may be it was 15 years ago, don't remember, i.e. got rid of old posts, because many people started to post on very old threads, making the reading of the forum very confusing. Since then, I do not purge anymore, I do the manual work of closing and deleting posts which are waking up old dormant threads.

South Africa have 25% fully vaccinated people. In a population of 60 million, that means 45 million not fully vaccinated. The new variant is called Omicron. It is NOT called the "South Africa variant". It was South African scientists who first warned about it. Still, nobody do know the origin. The point is we need the entire world to be vaccinated, not just the rich countries, ot

QuoteNate Quotesteffialicia Quotenoughties What`s the use of vaccination when new mutations pop up? The new variations come up because of individuals who have chosen to not be vaccinated. This fact is what causes the virus to continue to mutate. Can new mutations not form in a vaccinated person then? Nate New mutants typically show up in populations where the vaccination rate is low, i.

Quotenoughties What`s the use of vaccination when new mutations pop up? The vaccination will still work. May be not 100% but better with 70% protection and flu like mild illness than fatal outcome because you did not care about vaccination. The more people in the world are vaccinated, the less variants will be around. So just get vaccinated, and also support any works for getting Africa and

QuoteGreen Lady All the news sources seem obsessed with how transmissible new mutations are, but not whether (once you have caught it) it's any more dangerous than all the rest. Right now they - research - do see there is a dramatic increase in number of cases related to this new variant. Also, they know there are many changes in it, so it may be a problem. It takes a few weeks until the n

There are many non-vaccinated people who die now, not a big surprise. Meanwhile, before they die, they bring the virus on to their brothers, sisters, children, parents, friends, nursing homes, and so on, and they make the virus available to those who are at risk.

I have been three months on this tour now. As I left home in Norway, nobody in Norway were using masks, bars were open until 03am in the morning, and the recommendation of keeping 1m i.e. 3ft apart was buried. They said the pandemic is over. Result: Now covid-19 is increasing rapidly, a new wave is coming, even if we have one of the highest vaccination rates in the world. Same all over Europe. Th

The virus is not smart at all. There is 0% intelligence in a virus. The virus is moving on and mutating because some sick people manage to go out and meet many other people. The longer you are sick, the more mutants your body get. If everybody stayed at home for one or two months, the virus would go away, but that would never happen in the western world, where some do have the opinion that pe
