QUOTE (klasaine @ Jun 24 2021, 12:56 PM)  Sadly the 'herd immunity' thing is totally misunderstood, both the how and why of it. A community can't reach it until at least (conservatively) 75% of the population has immunity from either getting Covid or getting vaccinated. For fast and easy spreading diseases like Measles - 95% of a population needs to have the antibodies. Polio - 85%. It will either take YEARS or ... we may never get there(?). https://www.yalemedicine.org/news/herd-immunity https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/covid-19-vac...0this%20disease. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-00728-2 https://www.mayoclinichealthsystem.org/home...ty-and-covid-19 The thing is that we don't know how many people have immunity because they have already had covid but showed no or little sign of it and were never tested. So it's very possible that we are much closer to herd immunity in the US than we know, and as the articles you shared stated, we won't know untill positive tests and deaths numbers fall off to enough to show it. Also if you count the number of vaccinated and the number of people that we know have recovered from covid, we actually start to get pretty close even without the unknown variable. I am optimistic that herd immunity is closer than we know in this country but that doesn't really help us if we get a variant that is highly resistant to the current vaccines. So far this hasn't happened and hopefully it won't. Certainly, we need to get the countries that are behind in vaccination rates caught up.

Im very thankful to have had my 2 chips implanted and to see my country heading back to being more normal. Movies are showing and people are going. Fireworks are happening for the first time in quite a while this 4th of July. It's very positive overall
 I am sad to see India and other countries still fighting so hard to just stay ahead of this thing. https://www.newyorker.com/science/medical-d...t=footer-recirc |

Thanks guys! I'm not feeling very well today, so I had to stay in bed. They told me that maybe I wouldn't feel well for the next 2 days.
Did you feel bad after being vaccinated? -------------------- My lessons

Did you feel bad after being vaccinated? After my first one I felt fine, zero side effects, couldn't even feel where the needle went in. After the second one I didn't feel ill but my deltoid felt like Tyson had bare knuckle punched it twenty times but that only lasted a day. I felt the shot go in, not the needle but the actual liquid, it was as though the woman forced it in too fast. You'll be okay very soon buddy. -------------------- SEE MY GMC CERTIFICATE “Success is not obtained overnight.

QUOTE (AK Rich @ Jul 5 2021, 02:11 AM) Glad you are on your way to being vaccinated, Gabriel. I felt a bit crappy after my 2nd shot but not so bad that I didn't get out of bed. I know people who had flu like symptoms for a couple of days after the shot though. Hang in there, man. You'll be alright. 🙂 Thanks mate.

Let's see what happens with the second one... thanks Phil! QUOTE (Mertay @ Jul 5 2021, 10:11 AM) This is a good thing, your body reacted quickly to the vaccine and likely your immunity will be much higher than most on their first shot. Like, Phil, I didn't feel a thing on the first shot but expect that crappy feeling on the second Even though you'll be on bed rest, eat well like healthy stuff that gives a lot of energy to you (like fish etc.) then I'm sure the process will be easier. Nice to know this. I had not thought of it that way. -------------------- My lessons

I had my 2nd Moderna shot on Friday morning
Was fine for the rest of the day and then during the night got hit like a bus with fever and flu symptoms. Spent Saturday on the sofa, Sunday morning felt ok but a little tired and fragile by lunchtime I was fine. -------------------- My SoundCloud

One of my workers called yesterday after work and said he's positive. He's on a pilot scheme that has regular pcr tests. We've broken up for our annual two week summer sturdier so we've had to contact everyone and let them know, advising them all to take a test.
So far, so that have had a test are negative, myself included. As I'm out of town at my holiday home, I had to go into town to get some lateral flow tests. They gave us fourten each because we're here for two weeks which is odd as they only recommend doing it twice a week. Wife is negative too. We'll do another test on Tuesday.
