overweight and stressed out.
Enjoy your pointless leisure, you were born to it! |
You sound very jealous.

It's easy to be healthy, but, you must focus on yourself, only you have the ability to improve your immune system, through improved personal health.
It's clear there is great delusion among the group that somehow they can be obese, lazy, smoke, drink, avoid exercise and then blame their poor health
on people who go out, socialize and enjoy life? Projection of poor health on others is delusional.
In psychological terms, projection, avoidance, and ignorance sadly, leads to shortened life.
Why not share what you are doing to improve your health? What changes have you made over the last year, what significant adjustments are you doing to
improve prevention of respiratory illness, what have you done to reduce risk and improve your health? Share positive results?

Nothing handed down to us. My wife and I chose to move down here. Instead of buying a new car or going out to dinner, we invested our money and paid
off all of our debt.
My wife and I walked away from our teaching jobs. Best decision ever! I don't see why anyone would enjoy living in the Divided States of America?!
We exercise every day, work in the garden, spend time with our kids and neighbors, and laugh out loud often.
Need to let my tamales settle before we head for the beach. I'll drink a beer for you

Why can't this thread stay on topic?
COVID is getting worse in Baja. I was going to post some numbers but why? The post will just get lost in the uninteresting, off-topic babble.
Looks like we have complaints about the Canadian government on deck.

Here is a Covid-19 related article some may find interesting:

Sounds possible.
But what Mexico really needs is a vaccine-producing facility to crank out millions of doses. There isn't enough to go around. I guess such a facility
is too expensive to build.

I would argue that posting just the statistics on Baja infections is actually pretty uninteresting. The problem is the putdowns that members feel that
they have to do when making their point. But, I notice that Doug tries to keep it under control as much as possible.

I'm looking for the worsening. Is this the situation in BCS as well? Or just the north?

Yeah, numbers don't evoke an emotional response. The spreadsheet I keep will tell you the trends in each baja locality and I find that interesting
especially since what you can find on the Internet is usually a snapshot of "now" without any historical perspective. The graphical data on the web
showing past data are usually for the whole state and/or country.
I appreciate bajanomad moving posts to OFF TOPIC that should have been there in the first place.
I read the newspapers and Facebook group posts that the Baja Californians use and what's interesting is that there are 10s of thousands of BC people
wanting a vaccination that can't be had and just a short distance to the north in the US there are vaccines to be had at the local pharmacy that folks
don't want.

I think the delta variant wave has washed over BCS and is hitting BC now but am not sure,
I'll do my spreadsheet thing tomorrow and we'll see. I expect Rosarito to spike soon because of the "Baja Fest" mega beach parties over the past two
weekends.

I googled "Covid Hunter," the company's name for the Covid-19 scanning device, and found these:
https://thecovidhunter.com/the-covid-hunter%E2%84%A2

https://www.wptv.com/coronavirus/covid-hunter-hopes-to-be-ke...
https://us-amsi.com/
Couldn't find much else, including whether or not FDA approval has been sought, and if so, the status of the approval process.

Extensive study of CV vaccinated in UK shows increased risk from variants due to antibody-dependent enhancement.
Higher Death, Hospitalization Rates Among Vaccinated Individuals: UK COVID-19 Data
SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern and variants under investigation in England
https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/...
“analyses from England and Scotland supporting a reduction in vaccine effectiveness for Delta compared to Alpha against symptomatic infection.”
“One potential hurdle for antibody-based vaccines and therapeutics is the risk of exacerbating COVID-19 severity via antibody-dependent enhancement
(ADE). ADE can increase the severity of multiple viral infections, including other respiratory viruses such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and
measles.”
Immunization with SARS Coronavirus Vaccines Leads to Pulmonary Immunopathology on Challenge with the SARS Virus
https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal...
Antibody-dependent enhancement and SARS-CoV-2 vaccines and therapies

The only path to immunity is natural immunity that comes with recovering from the infection.
Having SARS-CoV-2 once confers much greater immunity than a vaccine
https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2021/08/having-sars-cov-2-on...
The natural immune protection that develops after a SARS-CoV-2 infection offers considerably more of a shield against the Delta variant of the
pandemic coronavirus than two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.
"The newly released data show people who once had a SARS-CoV-2 infection were much less likely than never-infected, vaccinated people to get Delta,
develop symptoms from it, or become hospitalized with serious COVID-19."
