I mentioned on the Cat a few days ago that my No. 1 son had covid. He is very late 20’s and fit with no underlying (known) co-morbidities.
I spoke with him yesterday and he is well and back at work. He reported that during his illness he felt lethargic with other symptoms including a sore throat and some congestion. Compared it to a mild/moderate cold.
Well done Glowie.
Thanks DocDuk.

Flyingduk: thank you heaps.
You comments make very much sense.
I also suspect that many ‘repeat’ infections are among the vaccinated, perhaps illustrating your points.
Most people appear to have no idea about rate of mutation, selection pressure and how immunity works.
Thanks again.
I presume the last untitled comment was directed to me.
No I don’t, not does anyone else. That’s not the problem you need to solve though. Show us a decent amount of data of people catching the same variant twice. That is, enough people to raise eyebrows.
I’ll wait.
DIRECTV Announces They Are Cancelling OAN News Because of The Network Political Alignment
January 14, 2022 | Sundance
Following on the heels of the demand from the White House to start blocking content against the interests of the Biden administration, DirecTV the satellite television communication company now part of the AT&T network, has announced their decision to drop the One America News Network (OANN) channel because OAN is perceived to be supportive of Donald Trump.
What’s worse, a short drop shithole or a long drop shithole?

I’m just now reading Steve Waterson’s article quoted this morning. This particular arrangement is also inviting contempt of our bureaucrats and politicians by the population. Did they give it a moment’s thought how they were going to enforce this? Even my teenage grandson asked me where is the catch and thought it was hilarious when I told him there wasn’t one.
Maybe this is worse:
JC. Are you thinking you can verbal the Clints without any ramifications?
The bit here is quite nice actually. Cooling down after a ride around the shore of the lake, which was excellent. And more riding before breakfast up the picturesque Tramways Track, which also has a small horsey area and butcherbirds.
The less nice bits seem to be the sections with people in them unfortunately. Which isn’t at all that surprising really; been ever thus since Genesis 3.
C’mon Glowie, I know you have more for me! It’s gettin boring here.
Why?

The ScoMo has never been bright, that title of Scotty from Marketing has always been ironic. He has been perfidious and lucky, that is the secret to his reaching The Lodge.
Yep, I can give you 2 mechanisms.
1) ADE (Antibody dependent enhancement – more severe illness the 2nd time you encounter the virus, DUE to your immune response): The vaccines (sic) teach your body to produce antibodies to just ONE protein, the spike protein, but there is nevertheless a SPECTRUM of said antibodies, with different functions and longevities. The key to immunity are the ‘neutralising’ antibodies – these latch onto the virus/spike and prevent it doing its thing. But there are also a range of ‘transport’ antibodies which are tasked with taking the virus/spike into the interior of various immune cells where they are used to ‘teach’ your immune system about the virus. ADE occurs when the neutralising antibodies disappear with time, but the transport antibodies persist. Hence, at your 2nd exposure to the virus, your immune system actively transports the virus into your cells, but DOES NOT KILL IT. – this is the rock upon which all previous coronavax projects foundered – its why all the test animals died.
2) Original Antigenic Sin: Your COVID vax (sic again) teaches your body to recognise the viral spike protein and do ONE thing – pump out antibodies against it. This is a much more limited response than you get after the real infection, where you pump all sorts of antibodies to all sorts of targets in the virus, and a whole host of other attack weapons as well. With original antigenic sin, when you subsequently encounter the next variant (one with a different but still recognisable spike protein), your immune system immediately recognises the spike and does the only thing it know how to do – it pumps out lots of old antibodies – antibodies which have limited ability to neutralise the new variant of the spike. This is less of a problem if you re-encounter the virus after natural immunity, because your immune system has so many other attack vectors as well.
If there is a potato shortage on the east coast, will that chap from WA with the big eye brows be able to send across as many as he can?
IT used to say the WA regulator limited the amount of potatoes he could sell.

Horsham: I believe I stopped there on the way to Adelaide a few years ago. It may be a good option. Anyone here know how it is on the ground there? Might be worth investigating.
Nagoya: Nice city. Roughly between Osaka and Tokyo. Well laid out on a grid pattern after it’s utter destruction in WW2, home of Toyota (well Aichi prefecture).
Nagambie: Only drove through. Still, it’s deep in the country which would be good.
Kyoto: Visited. Its nice for visiting, but probably not for living.
Kyabram: Can’t say I’ve been there. Cant be worse than Melbourne tho?
I think Nara Japan or somewhere in Bob Katter’s electorate maybe the way to go!
Thanks Duk. Anyone who has been doing lots of reading on this, knew that.

Some observations. Government rolled in old Parliament House fires. Talk about drawing a long bow.
They won’t go near his declaration, LOL who mentioned this morning (Mater?) that likely many other declarations by the rich and connected have been falsified too.
Interviewer’s name is visible in one paragraph, google search reveals as some quipped the other day likely sub-continent origin.
The interview is attached twice so I was able to skim about 60 pages.
Novak says a number of times words to the effect “If I knew I would not be allowed in I would not have come”.
Looking very much like Victorian Authorities granted the exemption, lower Fed employees rubber stamped but once the bad publicity hit the papers someone higher got involved hence the first clumsy attempt. This could have spectacularly blown up in Andrews face if someone with a cooler head had have handled it. No questions are being asked of or will be asked of Dan by the looks.

Friends of ours from Vic. are on a caravan holiday around the south island. They are double and triple vaxxed. This morning they were contacted and told they had been too close to a positive ‘rona and have to isolate. The caravan park where they were told them they couldn’t stay.
They’re set up on our property now, overlooking a dam. We hope our platypus comes out to say hello and give them a holiday feel, poor souls. They were supposed to go and get tested pronto, but apparently there’s a 24hr delay for that – too busy. I thought the whole isolating thing was over but it seems they’re jailed for 6 days and two negative tests.
Also heard that organisers of outdoor events (eg. local ag shows) are being told that only vaxxed can attend. Will that include Anzac Day?

Yes, but what they have to show is that the minister’s determination to that effect is unlawful.
Covid-19 Response Commander Jeroen Weimar said, the state had “unfortunately and sadly” surpassed 1000 hospitalised patients on Friday but Saturday’s figures meant it had reached its highest number of hospitalisations since the pandemic began.
“This again highlights how transmissible Omicron is but also how avoidable it is,” he said.
“Less than half of people in hospital were not fully vaccinated.
Huh?
More than half the people in hospital were fully vaccinated? I know, with vaxx rates at 92.6% of 16 and over, that still doesn’t mean that the vaxxes are failing. But it’s a strange double negative way of saying it. And why don’t they make the full stats available?

Welcome back. Thanks for the explanation for negative efficacy, although it’s easy to figure what it means by seeing both words together.
Here’s the issue. Earlier on, Eyrie was suggesting the inherent “negative efficacy” effect of the vaxxes is causing people to get covid twice.
I pointed out to him that it isn’t surprising people end up getting a different variant of covid, but it’s very very rare to hear someone getting the same variant twice. In fact we have friends living in Miami where the couple got the Alpha and now are just on the recovered side of Delta.
It was explained to him there is no surprise in people suffering a version of two variants but it is for getting the same strain twice. He seems to have a problems acknowledging this, which is why he gave your negative efficacy recognition. I thought I’d put it out there.

Yep….it’s not just a gigantic step backwards, it’s dangerous, it’s sinister and it leads directly to lynchings…be it Arndt, Pell, Porter and others…..and note that those targeted are never leftists, it’s always those on the right.
And the left will never ever admit they get anything wrong.

“Someone I used to think was ok was Jimmy Carter.”
Most people gave up on Jimmy Carter back in 1978/79….and then Reagan was elected in a landslide.

The pilot interviewed (link doesn’t work) was concerned about about the pilot having a bad turn on the final approach. Mid flight isn’t a problem, the pilot can die and the co-pilot can take over without any issues, but on the final approach there’s no time to reorganise things.

Wow that got repetitive in some of the Annexes. Hawke is using his powers which are pretty broad. They admit Novak is low risk, they accept he co-operated, had the right visa and a person of good standing with no history otherwise, yadda yadda yadda. However they are basing their case on the fact he will by, mere presence, encourage people to make a stand against forced vaccination. Going on other visa cancellations especially for conservative speakers for much less, I’d say we are at checkmate.
There a lot of fluff in the submission, especially the newspaper articles which shouldn’t hold weight as they are a journalists opinion and all likely cherry picked snapshots. That seems for local consumption as the MSM will definitely latch on to it.
They seem to downplay the political fallout internationally from this, I really don’t know whether internationally how damaging it will be. I suspect from a world perspective the bleeding obvious will be discussed, why grant the exemption & visa in the first place? Then pirouette once he lands because of local politics. Not good optics.
Also this guy is very influential due to his status and will now have the irritation of more paperwork wherever he goes due to a visa cancellation. Also will have sympathetic voices in international sports bodies. Could that affect Australia hosting future events? The effect will wane over time but he could cause some short term discomfort.
Be interesting to see his legal teams counter to Hawke which should be up later.
Jimmy Carter’s brother, Billy Carter was a cool guy and genuinely funny.
Not saying he wouldabin a Great President or anything, but he definitely wouldabin an improvement on Trump.
Well, there is a lesson here.
Don’t worry about pilots generally.
Just don’t fly with this one.
He has just admitted his own incompetence. Whoever has control for landing, if he/she shows signs of incapacity, the non-flying pilot calls “taking over” or “my aircraft”, shoves the balls to the wall and goes around.
Even on short final.
Sort it out in the circuit.
I had a friend in the Liberals who wanted me to join them because he wanted people to stop the likes of Hawke.
Sorry little guy, I think Novak Djokovic did a better job than I ever could.
If you’re out there reading this, I think you’ll find this is way more hilarious as well.
This bullshit is going to go on a while yet, didn’t scumo give approval for a poison jab factory that will be in production in 2024?
However they are basing their case on the fact he will by, mere presence, encourage people to make a stand against forced vaccination.
Encourage people to stand up for freedom of choice. Shocking to the modern lieboral party- an organisation that has outlived its usefulness to Australia.
‘health and good order’ in terms of attitudes to the vax:
Surmising -The absence of ‘good order’ implies wrongdoing.
In which case, the matter is something like that of another high profile appeal where the onus of proof was to show that it was not impossible that wrongdoing could have occurred, with Djokovic’s case being the need to show that it is not impossible that wrongdoing will occur.
Anyway, if Djokovic is judged a threat to good order then people like Craig Kelly might, just might, be safe from detention for as long as they don’t leave the country and wish to re enter.
Yes Hawke (bad name for starters) has wishy washy photios bot written all over him.
Please listen to biggles when it comes to piloting tips, he has an A340 in the cow paddock.
Cohenite,
How does one become an ex veteran?
I much preferred his Great-great-great-great-great-great-Grand Uncle, Magna.
Also, a ‘wouldabin’ is something you store bits of logs in, in the more mountainous and Alpine regions of Italy.
Not something you use to reinforce gypsum-fuelled failure…
Roll up the curtains and join the Choir Invisible?

You’re sundowning. Turn off your computer and go to your bed.
The rest of the World hate Australia, we’re the new Apartheid South Africa, though apart from Gideon Haigh, no one mentions it.
It was a StoogeUp to embarrass the Coalition from the GetGo, Serbs and Serbia are notorious for stupid politics, that’s how they gave themselves so much grief in the 20th Century.
Bottom Line:
Scotty came out on top anyway and it’s off to the Election before the Bushfires “accidentally” kick off again.
Hmmm
There are a few Jewish people here so I can totally understand if people can’t stand slippery Nick J Fuentes.
The thing is, his hot takes are often correct, despite him being really shrill about some other nonsense.

Speaking of Photios, his candidate went down to someone from the right wing in Berejiklian’s old seat.
Fwiw, which may not be very much.
Better than a closet full of tinfoil and a copy of the Protocols.
Remind me, just who do you think controls the world’s central and reserve banks again, dollar-discount Bird?

The hostages were released almost simultaneously with Reagan being sworn in as the US President. There were plenty of negotiations beforehand (with Algeria as the mediator!) but I recall hearing a story that the US side made it crystal clear that Reagan was an entirely different man to Carter. Namely, that Reagan was in no mood to negotiate further and the full resources of the USA will come to bear. The USA will brook no further humiliation and for each hostage life lost, Tehran and the holy city of Qom, can expect serious, and upscaling, retribution.
Thus the Mullahs (Khomeini specifically) determined they had milked this incident as far as it could go. The release time/date was specifically scheduled as a final ‘slap’ to Carter.
Yes Speedbox. Reagan threatened to glass them and they believed him.
Haha, it’s all Politics.
How is Albanese and The Labor Shillerati at The Australian going to spin that?
Answer:
They can’t.
More proof of the Simulation. Queensland cop on tv. His name
Rhys Wildman.
miltonf, I admit my wording and my bias there. However the actual language Mr Hawke used was much less flattering.
Phrasing.
#Snerk!
Will do. Glowie.
I don’t think even Grigory is blind, deaf and retarded enough to be unaware of how the entire leftwit establishment is going to spin an apparent embarrassment they provoked the Federal Government into making…
You’re still glowing.
Nice one glowie. Your so awesome.

Is that right? What a fool I was for ever giving that miserable organisation time and money.
Another good one. Glowie.
Sorry Glowman, but you as stunning, brave and likely to carry through on your grandiose pronouncements as Struth.
But please do keep trying to salve your ego by posting ‘Glowie’ in response to anything I type. It’s totally going to expose and upset my credibility.
Totes, even…
Nice comment. Glowie.
Nice one. Glowie.

So, according to the Morrison Govt:
Novak’s anti-vax views are dangerous
But…
The Liberal-National’s own George Christensen can spread as many COVID conspiracies as he likes

Ms Keneally. If we needed Novak’s vote on the floor of the House, we would be consistent here.
It’s expressly not health risks, or paperwork cockups.
There’s been no suggestion that Djokovic would actually use his celebrity to proselytise his views on vaccination.
Hawke’s (read the Morrison Government’s) express reason for revoking the visa substantially boils down to ‘we’ve lost control of part of the flock and can’t trust the buggers to behave themselves’.
That’s vaxxed and unvaxxed buggers.
Just looked up Hawke.
Hawke is a Sydney Uni Regiment old boy, Troop Commander in 1/15 RNSWL. Wow the NSW party is an incestuous lot, wasn’t Reynolds another Army Reserve type from the same flock? Kept David Elliott out of the seat so small mercies. Seems he used the NSW Conservatives to get a leg up then promptly dumped them by doing deals with “moderates” aka Photios. He is also in one of the safest seats out there so expect to see Hawke for the long haul.
Ed, seriously if you believe the Bushfires and this are a success for Scomo I have a bridge for sale, great views.
Has someone learned a new word?
It’s cute when they do that.
OK, now I’ve definitely tripped the algorithm.
Sorry, Cats. Maybe we will be graced with a better quality Viktoristan.gov chatbot next time…
Choo choo man, it is about time you educated yourself about fiat money & money creation, you can’t be that stupid with only one head.
Also what on earth gives you the idea I am anti Jewish?
You & biggles are still the groovy gang fruitless.
Nope. Females have only been allowed into the Armoured Corps within the last 2-3 years.
Reynolds was something else, and quickly catapulted into HQ and staff officer positoons, before becoming a politician.
Ah, well, Rex, funny you should mention that.
Faulty over at the Furniture Store reckons The Powers That Be are going to crash the banking system for a day, during which time Parliament will pass the We Want Your Cash Bill.
Next day, your deposits will be used to pay down bank debt, government deficits and top up the WEF Christmas Club.
Cash payments will be outlawed.
You heard it here first.
Unless you read the Furniture Store.
Which no-one does, so you heard it here first.
Piss-simple, Shit Dribbler.
They’re the only folks who get excited or evem vaguely animated about such things…
Rockdoctor, the creep branch stacked to get Mitchell, ousting Cadman. Safe as houses.
There is some nasty stuff relating to John Brogden too.
He’s the closest thing to a “Conservative” gangster is it gets.
I read that, in a fit of idleness and a quiet hope of observing another Bird-strike (he’s back, by the way. Under ‘Josey Wales.’ And Struth now nukes him on sight).
Struth, to his eternal credit, felt that pronouncement was too nuffy for him to agree with.
Rex na, Hawke did 6 years back in the ’90’s if Wikipedia is accurate.

Yes Speedbox. Reagan threatened to glass them and they believed him.
To quote an American I worked with at the time, “Turn Teheran into a glazed parking lot”.
Yes. I heard similar sentiments. The US negotiators were nominally Carter officials but the Reagan Presidential Transition Team inserted themselves into the negotiation process. I was told that the language used by the Reagan team was ‘less than diplomatic’ but nobody could have been under any illusions that they were serious and spoke with the authority of the incoming President. Whether Reagan would have glassed Tehran and Qom is obviously unknowable (and I doubt he would have) but even so, conventional weapons would have caused a hell of a mess.
Imagine – this was almost exactly 51 years ago.
I see that Deadman popped in yesterday.
This is great news.
He is a tough chap, coming back here, where grocers’ apostrophes and ‘towing the line’ are endemic.
Ave, Dedders.
Why?
Is it only something those perfidious Jacobians can create?
How do they do it? Do they grow it on trees? Tend it in gardens? Pull it out of the sea?
Tell me their secrets!
Yes.
And all triggered by a post by Johanna in the dead of night last night which, incidentally, didn’t name names.
It seems it touched a raw nerve around blow-harding about leaving the country (but not actually doing it).
They may well have all gone thru SUR, but there is UNSWR as well. And ne’er the twain shall meet…
I’m happy to tow a line, Joh. Provided there’s a fish on the other end.
The thing about negative efficacy and COVID vaxxes is that the UKHSA figures show that vaxxed are back to twice the rate of infection (or thereabouts) vs unvaxxed across all age groups 18 and above. Vaxxed do better on the death rate but that is only meaningfully the case for 60 and above. It literally makes almost no difference to 40 and under because hardly anyone dies from COVID in those age groups.
