What is the root of your objection? That Pfizer is making money?

No. How about their products are not liability free and are tested independently? And not advertised for free like cigarettes used to be.

Still waiting for your solution to either end or keep covid under control.  

When you read a math problem the first step is to observe and analyse. Then you write down the equation. You don't start with the solution.

So two years in you are still observing and analyzing?

true, they do rely heavily on math magic... "95%  effective" means what again?

England's Plan B measures are to end from next Thursday, with mandatory face coverings in public places and Covid passports both dropped, Boris Johnson has announced.

The prime minister also said the government would immediately drop its advice for people to work from home.

The PM said England was reverting to "Plan A" due to boosters and how people had followed Plan B measures.
He told MPs scientists believed the Omicron wave had peaked nationally.

Well when Dr BH tells you that you can go back to work as soon as your symptoms are gone because you are not infectious anymore, yet Dr. Tam on the same day says that there is no evidence Omicron is less infectious so you should remain home for 10 days it is not a surprise that nobody trusts our 'MDs'.

oh boy. i'm sure dalhousie university & U of nottingham would be extremely interested to know the details if they're not actually MDs, but only "MDs" as you say. did you tell them?

A major grocery chain is limiting the number of customers allowed in its British Columbia stores "until further notice" in an effort to curb the spread of COVID-19.

All Save-On-Foods stores in B.C. will operate at 50 per cent capacity for the foreseeable future, the company told CTV News on Wednesday.

^ I guess covid spreads differently in Alberta, Yukon, Saskatchewan & Manitoba. Or maybe those stores don't normally get as busy.

Interesting that it's limited to one province.

[Victoria Watcher]

I suspect that most stores rarely reach 50% of their fire capacity anyway.

I was quoting the term used in the comment I was responding to.

If you would like I can explain what 95% effective meant with respect to the effect of the specific vaccine tested to the covid variant that it was tested on?

I know what it meant. I am curious if you do so please do.

Start by stepping out of presumptuous denial. Look at this holistically. Stop censoring debate. Actually have debate. Look at all angles. Don't put so much weight on computer models and assumptions. Stop messing with data and misrepresenting it. Stop looking at only one solution at the expense of all else. If something isn't working don't just do it more and harder. Stop looking at prison science. etc etc....

I thought I would provide information that would be useful to all as well as you if you did not understand.

 

If you know what it means and have further information or clarification, corrections on the information provided in the reference that is useful please feel free to provide it.
