I reckon if you pulled up all the visa paperwork for AO competitors and their entourages over the last decade a good third would be full of mistakes and ‘lies’, they were all just waved through in the past though. No, they’ve been given the OK to make example of Djokovic for base political purposes. The Czech girl was collateral damage, they’ll be trying to keep the spotlight very firmly on Djokovic going forward though.
It’s making Brandon look bad.

Joker is being treated differently.
If all exemptions (work, travel, quarantine) were made public, citizen journalists could trawl all over the information & highlight the lies (especially from the quarantine exemptions).

The dim bulbs at AO already re-branded it as that a few years ago to be “more inclusive”, probably along Keating’s “we are part of Asia” fiction.

It’s actually considerably worse. Morrison has actively facilitated the dissolution of the Federation by providing the political and economic infrastructure to support the Premier’s local Covid models, as well as by his personal weakness and lack of a clear plan.

And so it begins. We’re repaying three couples for dinner over the summer and intending to them over on Sunday evening. One couple who don’t know the other two asked if the others were vaccinated. Wifey told her she didn’t know, wasn’t going to ask and they didn’t want to come it was okay…. but she wasn’t going to ask.
We heard another story of an unvaxxed Sydney couple staying with friends in Melbourne. The Melbourne couple were having a dinner and invited other friends. Their Sydney friends asked if the other people attending could take a rapid test because they were unvaxxed. I shit you not.
And they wouldn’t get it past the membership, among whom Albo is quite popular.

Thank you for the sobering article about childless young men seeking vasectomies. These men are realistic about the future, and are therefore taking a wise step.
Original article here.
‘More people is the last thing this planet needs’: the men getting vasectomies to save the world
When Lloyd Williamson lay on his back in a GP’s clinic late last November, it was for the surgical culmination of years of soul searching. Williamson, who is 30 and from Essex, remembers wanting a family as a child, but something changed in his early 20s. “I thought: you know what? I don’t want to bring a life into this world, because it’s pretty shitty as it is and it’s only going to get worse,” he says, two weeks after his vasectomy.
Williamson was largely motivated to sterilise himself by the climate crisis.
…
Trump, you magnificent bastard!!!
For Nate Miller (not his real name), a 36-year-old from Colorado, the election in 2016 of Donald Trump, a climate science denier, was the clincher. “I made an appointment to get a vasectomy later that week,” he says.
….
cuck cuck b-cuuuuuck…
Vasectomies don’t necessarily preclude parenting. Rodney Pohl, 26, an IT technician, is planning to foster or adopt with his wife, Carrie, who watched Pohl’s vasectomy at the SimpleVas clinic near their home in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, last June. The couple were motivated partly by weather extremes and what they foretold. A recent polar vortex had taken out the power on their street for 10 days. “We had neighbours breastfeeding small infants and we were sharing generators to try to keep their fridge going, to not waste [expressed] milk,” Pohl says.
Looking st the highlighted bit, its a sham they all didnt get chopped..
“Oh no its very cold and the power is out…. how will we keep this milk cold…….

Scotty is going to murder him once the campaign kicks off, which is likely to be only weeks away, since the Greens letterboxed me on Thursday and they always seem to get an early heads up.
“Dr Gerrard said the Covid deaths were happening in a range of settings, including hospitals, aged care facilities, and homes and some people had a short period of illness and then sudden death – often from the heart condition myocarditis”.
Well fancy that.
It’s quite amazing that with every exchange between Rand Paul & Fauci, Rand Paul has been proven to be right & Fauci has been proven to be a liar.
The way Fauci used to act so incredulously when questioned has now morphed into blaming Paul for death threats is pretty pathetic.

Pfizer are laughing all the way to the bank.
Paul destroyed him on this too. Fauci was bawling about death threats, meanwhile Paul was badly beaten up to within an inch of his life by a demonrat and was shot at during the ball park incident. Paul reminded to dirtbag that Republicans didn’t blame demonrats for the attacks.
They should though.
Head Case.
Dr Pierre Kory is an incredibly well qualified Dr and Cardiologist who has been at the forefront of developing and implementing successful early treatment of Covid cases…. SUCCESSFUL treatment.
Instead of rejoicing at such successes, medical bureaucrats have been using spurious accusations to threaten the licences of Doctors who are saving lives. The process is the punishment, because a successful defence takes considerable time, effort and expense … for which the defendant is not compensated, regardless of their established innocence and competence.
It is the same in Australia. Even telling a sick patient that there are treatments for C19 is regarded as ”discouraging vaccination”. Do you understand? The “crime” is successfully treating sick people and saving lives
Like you, these bureaucrats and shills for big pharma contribute nothing, and can only validate their existence by trying to tear down those better than themselves.
Bern no, that’s freaking real.

I’m not a gambler. I tossed that out because Albo is pretty unlikeable and the steely eyed numbers men in the liars might decide they need a more acceptable candidate. The rest of the gaggle are pretty much on the nose too. I’m sure Albo has enough skeletons that he could be persuaded to stand aside quietly especially if given a nice juicy, highly paid nothing job.
PeterW,
I’d move if I could take my current land with me. I’m kind of attached to it.
The choice wasn’t mine. I will miss terribly my established orchard, my huge veg garden, my separate cottage that I used as a bakery for my tiny home business. The great chook runs for my poultry. Even the huge dam that we enlarged over the years and spent many happy summers swimming in and fishing for eels.
As the saying goes though, “when life hands you lemons, make lemonade”. And that is exactly what I am doing. I have a lot of work ahead of me, but I have skills that will see me through. I will be self-sufficient for the most part, will spend time getting to know my new land and it getting to know me, and will come out of my exile when I, and I alone choose to.
ps, WOW! 9 or 10 dogs. What a great trip through the bush that must be.
Poor Head-case.
The only liar here is him.
I have personal friends in the health system. They cannot repeat in public (or on social media) what they know about the harms being done by the vaccines. Not without being dragged fir for a board and required to justify their licence.
That’s quite funny as well as being counter intuitive.

Ah, but they do not do that (just ask them, they’ll tell you).
Instead they have legislated an “independent” tribunal to make those decisions. Of course, the pollies appoint the “independent” members of the “independent” tribunal, and probably have a say in their remuneration, but that would never, never, affect the “independence” of the tribunal’s determinations, no sirree.

Professors Tom Borody and Robert Clancy have published the results of a clinical trial of the use of Ivermectin Triple Therapy. Patients were treated after a positive PCR test.
This is just one more trial showing that a drug which Doctors are not permitted to prescribe in Australia, shows a 90% effectiveness at reducing hospitalisation and 100% in reducing deaths from Covid.
When anyone tells you that the lockdowns are to stop the medical system from being overwhelmed, they are either lying or talking out their arse.

The 2021 OZ tennis open was under conditions where literally no one was vaccinated. There was no spread. Why is Djokavic not being vaccinated in 2022 going to be an issue when over 90% of the popn. is double vaccinated?
Is it just me or is special Ed licking the windows on the short bus more vigorously than usual this morning?
As for the Djoker himself well his story seems holier than a hanger at Kandahar Airport
Fact check – TRUE (about the airport – Ive flown out of there and the roof was indeed porous)
Ed…
They – multiple-qualified health workers with considerable experience and exemplary records, stated the following.
Life-threatening conditions developing immediately after vaccination, displaying symptoms known to be associated with vaccine side-effects and with no prior history in those patients, are deliberately being recorded as “cause unknown”.
Medical staff are refusing to record cases of this nature on the Vaccine Adverse-Effect database, because doing so results in being classified as an “anti-vaxxer”.
That adverse events appear to be more common and more severe amongst the young and fit.
That they can be forced to justify retaining their licence and employment for simply liking a pro vaccine-choice post on social media, reported by some spiteful, anonymous dobber.
We have exeptionally good reason to conclude that the risks of these vaccines are being under-reported and that people are dying as the result of being denied safe and effective treatment.
Yep, and it makes an interesting confirmation that the Govt is on a ‘war footing’ – there are dozens of 2 stars in the Army, but very few 3 stars – about 3 if I recall. Using one as the figurehead for this is telling.
What a lying arsehole. Who the fuck is he?

Fact #4 : Ivermectin Triple Therapy Not Proven To Work
The Australian Department of Health also pointed out that Professor Borody’s Ivermectin Triple Therapy protocol has not been proven to be safe or effective against COVID-19.
——
There is currently insufficient evidence to support the safe and effective use of ivermectin, doxycycline and zinc (either separately, or in combination) for the prevention or treatment of COVID-19.
He’s some IT geek idiot who shills online for money, with a very punchable face.
Haha, I’ve just found why we’re in this fake Covid emergency. It turns out that academia in the Health field is owned lock, stock and barrel by Karens.
Study examines diversity in research publishing (Phys.org, 14 Jan)
Don’t bother reading the article text because the key diagram says it all, and a lot better. “Health” is massively controlled by wymminses, and men are enormously underrepresented.

BoN,
I saw that article, very interesting. It reminded me of a doco I was watching last week about Egypt. It explained something I never knew and obviously would never have occurred to me. We all believe that camels have been used there for millennia. As it turns out, not true. Camels have only been in use a couple or three hundred years, not even native to the area. It was the good old ASS, that was used for transporting people, goods, food, building supplies, everything that need to be moved. Egypt and its kingdoms were built on the back of an ASS!

I’ve pashed a Finnish bird in my time.
I think that outranks the French of the species. Harder to find but stands out with distinctive pale plummage.
Looks like the offending “go hang yourself” comment has been removed.
Whoever it was, is it possible that Johanna’s “all mouth and no trousers” post at 2:22 a.m. struck a nerve?
BTW, I agree in large part with the sentiment.
The endless noise about “leaving this shithole” is somewhat reminiscent of the pathetic never-Trumpers in 2016, threatening to move to Canada or NZ or Mexico, but going nowhere.
I also agree that “this shithole” (even with it’s warts) may be as good or better than most of the other shitholes.
And I reject the proposition that “I could leave if I wanted to, but I can’t”. We established the other day (I forget who posted it) that you can leave Australia unvaxxed as long as you tick the box saying you will be away for three months or longer.
Tick that box and “change your mind” to permanent migration later.
Could it be that some of those expressing a desire to leave still want to collect the OAP, Medicare benefits and other social security from “this shithole” whilst overseas?
… doesn’t matter now, but for those interested, this particular commenter previously disclosed that toilet paper shortages won’t worry him, he’ll just wash off in the shower after taking a dump.
The formal court paperwork:
In the final analysis, Alex Hawke wasn’t concerned about Djokovic bringing Covid into Australia, spreading it, or catching and suffering from it. [13]
Hawke essentially elected to boot Djokovic for being an notorious antivaxxer and disregarder of quarantine [22] – whose presence in Australia would be:
•1 A comfort to wicked antivaxxers;
•2 An obstruction to the Vax-hesitant;
•3 A discouragement to the Booster-reluctant;
•4 A trigger for “civil unrest” at ”unsettling” anti-vax rallies [34]; and
•5 The trigger for the risk of “adverse reaction” on the part of vaccinated citizens [35] and public criticism of the government at this “critical juncture”[36].
So, Milo-level infantilising.
Which refreshes the question: why the fuck was he given a visa in the first place?
Apparently, the author of that article cannot work out the contradiction between “not approved for Covid” and “legal to prescribe off-label”.
There are only more than sixty other ivermectin trials, 32 of them RCTs, showing similar results. The reason I post Borody and Clancy is that they are Australian and have incredibly good reputations.
Very educational Bruce.
I feel a certain reserve for the interpretation when they use ‘latinx’, and the under/over representation criteria makes my skin crawl, but as you say it tells the story. Public Health as a field is hugely dominated by ambitious women, and they cast out people with unapproved ideas.
I don’t actually have a problem if a circle of fempersns chose to write papers on comparative care outcomes of premature newborns… it is at least as useful as a PhD on oxygen fugacity of mineralising fluids in Archaean gold deposits. But they also do the whole Karen thing on smoking, gun control, warmening and rough sports injuries… the Public Health Association has spent the last 40 years pretending to be Simon Chapman.

I’m a great fan of Brendan O’Neill’s Spiked blog and i always catch up on the 35 minute weekly podcast from Tom Slater, Fraser Myers and Ella Whelan.

Under-reporting is to be expected when the government agency which approved and encouraged the use of the drugs (the TGA) is the same agency which records adverse events. At the very minimum, another agency which has no involvement in the approvals should manage the adverse events reports.
If you ran a business where you suspect that an employee is pilfering the petty cash, would you then ask that employee to audit his own activities?
Chris,
Have you a link to that oxygen fugacity of mineralising fluids in Archaean Gold deposits research?

The Victorian Government initiated and handled all the paperwork for Djoker’s visa.
Morrison confirmed that in response to a question at a Presser on Friday the Seventh, just hours before Border Force blindsided him and lifted Djokovic’s visa.
Could it have been specially to engineer a situation like this?

Probably, and hopefully they will snatch defeat next week, when, despite his deportation, the ‘fully vaxxed’ second stringers that remain start ‘catching covid’ and/or collapsing on court.
About 98% of new cases are omicron not delta, but the idiots in government are still tending to think “delta” – so we are still being treated harshly and wrongly. Forget the testing, forget the daily presstitute sessions, forget the masks and drop the QR big brother we’re watching you stuff.

So once again, at the expense of offending the rather vocal orthodoxy that has grown up around the Joker as the unvaxxxxed hero of the hour, all parties other than Fed.gov agreed that this would and should happen by any means necessary. And set about bending every rule and inconveniencing fact (like incidental travel and actual time of infection, etc.) in the process.
If it hadn’t been the Joker, I have little doubt that Cats would be cursing out the governments for letting in someone else with relative impunity because of their ‘elite’ status.
He ticked all the right boxed and got the Politics right, then?
Bottom Line:
Labor tried to go Populist and got fucked over by a Master.
Bad luck, kiddies, back to the Play Dough.
Struth got lucky.
His big deal has always been publicly airing his terrible fear that a massive cabal of Communist-nazi-globalist-pooftah-pansies were taking over and wrecking the Australia he loved.
And he didn’t much care how or where or when it might happen, so long as it did and validated his general nuffery.
No Rexy, all we want is a win. Sick of the so called ‘gov’ tyrants and their pet sheep getting it all their way, even though they are in the wrong.
Things are just fine.
Great country.
I no komplayin.
Oh for dual passport.
Fuck off, Grigory.
Razey.
I think you misunderstand the term “Karen”.
I am agreeing with Johanna that, for all the chest-thumping about “leaving this shithole”, there has been precious little actual movement.
Encouraging people to follow up on their own bold plans – ‘piss or get off the pot’ you might say – is the very antithesis of the Karen mindset.
And so am I.
But backing the bastardry and duplicity of your own State against a Fed whom everyone has been conditioned by the bastard media and States alike to blame for their own perfidy was never going to achieve it.

If it hadn’t been the Joker, I have little doubt that Cats would be cursing out the governments for letting in someone else with relative impunity because of their ‘elite’ status.
Not so sure about that Rex. There have been many, many, adverse comments here about the relative freedom of Hollywood “royalty”, pop stars of various levels of success and sports types and their WAGs who seemed to be able to move much more freely than we serfs during the last two years. Many involved “cursing out” governments.
Steady on Razey.
You’re verballing now.
How is the move to Japan going?
Booked the tickets yet?
Organised the removalists?
Things are just fine.
Great country.

Oh for dual passport.
off you go then
Apparently history began in late 2019.
then again why would you even want a dual passport
I am wondering if someone with suitable expertise or references could help with just how effective is having Covid in producing robust immunity to avoiding later infections ?
The welcome reappeared Flyingduk perhaps?
I see some debate in various comments (mainly in the mainstream media) that plenty of people have caught covid twice, and some in a relatively short time. I understood that having had covid would provide strong and lasting immunity, superior in fact than from the ‘vaccines’.
OK, my original comment was not as clear as it should have been.
You are correct, Boambee John. And this statement above is exactly what I meant.
If the Joker was not publicly unvaxxxed and refusing to state his status and so forth, amd thus suddenly a ‘hero’ in everyone’s eyes, he’d just be another ‘elite’ everyone was rolling their eyes at while he joined yet another pageant of the rich and powerful cavalcading through the country for a few weeks before pissing off somewhere else and leaving us all stuck in the mire still.
I notice these shit stained toilet fuckwits like IT seem to be on here 24/7. I sure hope they’re not living off centrelink aka OPM.

Yes Kerry.
And your point is…?
Oh, that’s right.
The “vaccines” don’t work.
As a back up if one of the countries becomes a shithole – like Australia has.

So how is the move to Japan going?
‘off you go then’?
Yes, well, the siren sounds of the vaccinated economy.
I do wish people would educate themselves in the classics.
Chicken little was no hero.

Yep.

Australia, wow, what a shithole.
Listen up, Clown Doctor.
They have already been exposed. And some got it and others didn’t and some didn’t even know they had it (which, incidentally, you acknowledged).
Shut up and make some sandwiches. It’s all you’re good for. And make sure you wash your hands first.
Chicken Little should have gone to SpecSavers.
I wonder if other issues are in play here. With the present sabre rattling going on between NATO and Russia, and the close ties based on ethnicity and religion between Serbia and Russia, is this part of that act?
Serbia isn’t in NATO.
Eventually, the sheep will be slaughtered.
99.7 % of ACT residents over 16 double jabbed, 95% of over 12’s, 28% triple stuck and yet has had over 20,000 cases in the last fortnight, ten times their total cases for two years.
I think the unjabbed zombie theory is bust just on this example of the uber compliant.
Canberra is not quite the South Pole but Scott of the Slogan is still pressing on even after the flag of absurdity is firmly planted before he arrives at reality.

I’m not even sure it’s representative of Victoria.

Same for Isreahell. They’re on their 4th jab and have a higher covid rate / million than even the USA.

They are actually in greater danger from the vaxxed than the unvaxxed.

well yes it is an Australian city- and like Sydney it has lotsa suburbs and districts- Eastern suburbs, Bayside, Wild west, Mornington peninsula and the ex-urbs like Wandong and Gisborne.
As with Sydney, the quality of life has been badly affected by mass migration caused by the parasite robber state on fake lake.

then again why would you even want a dual passport
The trick with dual passports (nationalities) is that the additional passport allows visa free access to a larger number of countries. For example, an Australian passport holder requires a pre-approved visa to enter Russia whereas a Vanuatu passport holder does not (visa on arrival). There are heaps of other examples but it is about the ‘swiftness’ or convenience that one could utilise in moving around the world. For business people, this can be a critical aspect in getting a deal done.
The are also anti-extradition aspects depending on the extradition treaty one country may have with another. Those who move in the shadows, in particular, may have 2, 3 or even more different nationalities and passports.
I’m gonna stay so I can keep saying Australia is a shithole.
Wow 266 pages in that Government submission. So they went away and spent the rest of the week fortifying everything to come up with something that I skimmed and looks pretty comprehensive. Be interesting to see Novak’s counter, the Minister power to cancel seems an unbeatable trump card at this short notice. Especially with the Open starting Monday.
Part of the tragedy of the place is that people who risked life and limb to get here, or who came to get away from oppressive social networks, now find that they are in a place worse than the place from which they escaped. In some respects, the social networks have become more oppressive than the political diktats.
The plandemic has revealed the vulnerabilities of the new world. Not much to fall back on.
LOL 😉
Why?
Does being an expat somehow rob the opinion of its power, glowie?
Free Nelson Mandela Novax Djokovic!
Free all Novax Australians!
Roger Johnson is right!
Ok Glowie, what ever you say.
You know, the person who wrote the comment about Australia being idyllic does have a reasonable point. I can’t exactly recall the parameters used, but Australia came out at number 1 in terms of overall standard living used in an Economist survey. And I think it’s true. For the most part, obviously not all, the not so well off have an incredible standard of living relative to the rest of the world. Our so so suburbs are amazingly clean to the point of sterility and the homes appear to be well kept with most having nice gardens and lawns. We could be much wealthier still but that’s for another discussion. For the wealthy though, Australia may not be tops because anyone wealthy can have a wealthy -type living standard pretty much anywhere in the western world. It just costs more.
“I’m gonna stay so I can keep saying Australia is a shithole.”
Of course you are…..you’re not going anywhere. You’re all talk and no action.
You know, I can understand your anger about what’s happened to this country over the last two years.
Many of us are angry and concerned about the direction of this country but everyday here you scrape the bottom of the barrel with your nasty, vicious and tedious comments. You generally add nothing to debates/discussions here….all you do is pour simplistic vitriol on this country and anyone who disagrees with you.
Go away.
Just fuck off.
The extent to which Australia is a shithole depends on which bit of it we’re talking about. What worries me is that it seems to be increasing in shitholiness wherever you look.
I see some debate in various comments (mainly in the mainstream media) that plenty of people have caught covid twice, and some in a relatively short time. I understood that having had covid would provide strong and lasting immunity, superior in fact than from the ‘vaccines’.
Seems to. The ones having caught it twice are likely the vaxxed. After a few months the vaxxes not only eliminate whatever natural immunity you had but have negative efficacy.
Ok Glowie.
Ok I was thinking honey trappers.
Now poor DrBG needs an intervention for his man crush. What to do?
So is most of the rest of the world.
I see some debate in various comments (mainly in the mainstream media) that plenty of people have caught covid twice, and some in a relatively short time. I understood that having had covid would provide strong and lasting immunity, superior in fact than from the ‘vaccines’.
Simple version.
Covid is a single strand DNA thing. This means it can mutate easily. Much like the flu shot doesnt protect you against every variety of flu its meant to protect you from the worst (I think its 4) varieties predicted to be circulating.
Having one variety of covid wont stop you getting some of the others.
Its the exact reason they havent successfully tried a human vaccination against covid family before. By the time youve vaxed for one strain its effectively obsolete.
With our current crop of sub-mongs making decisions it should only take another 5-10 years to learn this.
Bullshit. There’s not been any number of scientifically verifiable cases where a person has caught the same variant twice. It’s been muted but never shown to be true and we can safely sinfer that repeat contagion of the same variant is zero or very very rare. What we are seeing is a few people catching the Omni after Alpa and Delta. That’s not unusual as we see the same with the flu when people are vaxxed for another variant.
Yes. There is outwards shitholes and inwards shitholes everywhere.
One needs to watch where one steps.
Looks like shit, smells like shit, feels like shit, tastes like shit …
How is the Fourth Reich’s Covid state going you ask?
2nd Jan 12,636 cases and 52 deaths.
13th Jan 93,154 cases and 262 deaths.
The Stalag seems to have a few escapees.
Germans never learn.
There’s a Brit show on TV called Escape to the Country which is about the only thing I regularly watch because it reminds me of the landscapes, villages and so on. Just about every episode starts off with a couple explaining why they’re moving from suburban London to the country, which could be summarised as, “When we moved here 25 years ago it was lovely but it’s since become a shithole.” They’re just too polite to put it that way.
You don’t internet very well, do you Razey?
Perhaps you should have re-read that definition I linked, before trying to throw it round like a toddler does spaghetti.
As an obfuscation tactic, it is pretty useless and betrays an appalling inability to ‘blend in…’
The West seems to be going hysterical, the middle east was always hysterical, but Japan and the former soviet contries look to be relatively sane.
You’re glowing.

I have to say my little patch of Australia is pretty darn good. And I have travelled just about everywhere (excluding Antarctica). And lived in a genuine 3rd world country for an extended period.
Government does influence the general level of sh*tholiness, as does the population mix. It doesn’t mean I’m ecstatic about the situation, or blind to it or indifferent.
Following some excellent advice from Voltaire, I will make sure that my own garden is as well cultivated as it can be. And that is no mean feat, especially when outside forces want to turn it into a place of briars and ruin.
I can’t immediately point you to a study, but reports prior to OMIGHOD suggested that ‘Survivor Immunity’ (immunity to covid after covid) was virtually 100%, with the occasional ‘reinfection’ generally being an artefact due to a false + PCR on either the 1st or 2nd so called infection.
First principles backs this up – after your immune system has learned to defeat a viral infection once, it retains that knowledge forever, and you only catch it ‘again’ if it mutates enough to significantly evade that knowledge (in which case you aren’t really getting the infection again, you are getting one of its children). This is why you only ever get measles once (it mutates slowly) but you get a variety of colds annually (resp viruses mutate rapidly).
Up until OMIGHOD, the similarity of all ‘new variants’ to the original strain, and each other, was sufficient that your suite of immune defences after natural infection pretty much ensured you didn’t get COVID again. With OMIGHOD, however, there are a LOT of mutational changes, sufficient it seems for it to largely evade narrow spectrum vaccine immunity – hence the obvious failure of the vaccines to prevent the current outbreak.
These mutational changes may also be enough for it to partially start evading the broad spectrum defences available after prior infection, hence we are probably starting to see some ‘breakthrough’ cases after natural immunity also. The great majority of these are likely mild or invisible, BUT, they can be viewed as a natural ‘antivirus update’, meaning you are now back up to 100% strength in terms of immunity.
This is how immunity to fast mutating respiratory viruses work – you have to keep updating it by regular battles with each new variant. Most times, these will cause asymptomatic or mild illness, and only where the new variant is very different to your prior experience will you get serious illness.
Failure to understand the dynamic nature of immunity – the need to regularly exercise and educate your immune system by letting it deal with ongoing threats – is why we have fallen for the trap of passive immunity via immunisation. Now we are seeing the results – rapid failure of the vaccines to provide protection, and a weakened natural immune response to back it up. This in my mind is one of the biggest risks of repeated immunisation – you let your own immune system get lazy and it falls over when a significantly new threat comes along. This is called ‘immune debt’.
Yeah, I consider it’s a new generation’s word for the same concept.
Tits won’t replace albo: a rape accusation is worse then frequenting brothels so tits loses in the sex ethics stakes.
In other news Bongino has cottoned on to my thesis that the scumbag biden – this bastard is a very bad bastard indeed – and his cronies after losing so much and with a few semi-sane demorats like Manchin and Sinema (and the great Tulsi even though she no longer votes) actively opposing the senile grub, will start to turn really nasty now. As I said if you want to vote on something vote on the old sex deviant abolishing the mid-terms because his newly formed anti-domestic terrorism goon squad has found evidence of more insurrection amongst Trump voters. This will be as day following night as the first charges for insurrection have been laid against an ex navy veteran and some mob of yahoos called the Oath-Keepers for the Jan 6 frolic.

Good one. Glowie.
Shitholary is also a relative thing. In absolute terms, have we been a shithole for the past couple of years?Absolutely, but not in relative terms.
Anyway, after Covid we have to go back and deal with global warming- the most pressing problem of all. Where’s Greta when you need her. Can you imagine, the little idiot is a miserable teenager now, can you imagine what a miserable unhappy fuckhead she’ll be when she’s all grown up.?Imagine if she latches onto some poor fuck and what a miserable unhappy life he has. God help him.
