I think that is quite an informative link without all the ballcocks Johnp.Quote:

Thanks for that, maybe that is the sort of information that should have been accessible, well not so much as Day 1, because there didn't appear to be that much available back then but certainly there has been since.

This is really worth a read re transmission of the Covid 19 virus and how its transmission mode was not understood.
All pandemic long, scientists brawled over how the virus spreads. Droplets! No, aerosols! At the heart of the fight was a teensy error with huge consequences.

In good news, I tested negative today.
Sydney not lockdown scene - its on again.

Coronavirus: Pfizer's Covid vaccine is linked to MORE blood clots than AstraZeneca's in the UK | Daily Mail Online
Back in March
I got curious coz an aquaintance was saying something about a pfizer blood clot in qld but it seems it is being written off as due to a knee operation.
Don't know if the crowd above is mainstream or tabloid journalism (hard to tell these days with so many 'opinion' pieces)
Actually doing a search found plenty of not so glowing pfizer stuff
Also on the CDC website there is a searchable database of reported side effects and no vaccine is without its faults. Pfizer has memory loss and heart and other organ related issues. The percentages for Astra and Pfizer side effects per population were of course sfa compared to dangers of aspirin (I take daily aspirin), birth control pills and simply covid itself.
The only issue with short testing time is are we going to find Astra causes blindness in 20 years time and Pfizer causes your heart to explode in 20 years time etc etc although I suspect bureacratic hurdles not just safety has a lot to do with how long it takes to get things approved when there is no urgency like a pandemic.
Now where the hell is my second Astra shot dammit !!!

People were at the locations of interest from all over NZ and now they are home again.
Good news, hopefully it remains that way.Quote:

Yeah, we're depending on a lot of dumb luck here at present. We missed the opportunity to make our luck by not closing to NSW in a timely manner. Now we are relying on dumb luck that he wasn't infectious.Quote:
