The Boy Who Cried Wolf aka TACO
Read the majority of your fellow “highly educated “ posts. Let me know if you need names. You’re as phony as the HISO attitude you TRY to pass off on the forum. You beat the liberal fake news media by a long shot. -

Top U.S. CDC covid vaccine adviser quits after RFK Jr. ended recommendations
The UK government lately seems to be basing their COVID vaccines more on saving money (cost-effectiveness) as opposed to protecting the health of all of their citizens. From the above source: "In reviewing the cost-effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccination in pregnancy, taking into account the potential health benefits in the pregnant person and the neonate including neonatal death, JCVI advised that it was highly unlikely that vaccination in pregnancy would be cost-effective" In contrast, here's some pertinent data from the U.S. on COVID risk: Why does vaccination during pregnancy matter? And why should babies get vaccinated again? "1. To protect you. Pregnancy puts extra stress on the body: lung function changes, blood clot risk rises, immune function shifts. Covid-19 infection adds another layer. Compared to nonpregnant people of the same age and health status, pregnant people with Covid-19 are more likely to require ICU care, need a ventilator, or die. They’re also at higher risk for complications like preeclampsia, blood clots, and cesarean delivery. 2. To protect your fetus before birth. Covid-19 infection during pregnancy increases the risk of preterm birth and, during previous Covid waves, stillbirths. (During the Delta wave, a study showed a 4-fold increase in stillbirths.) It can also damage the placenta, impairing antibody transfer. While risks have gone down (largely thanks to background immunity), they’re not zero." https://yourlocalepidemiologist.substack.com/p/covid-vaccines-for-pregnancy-and -

Top U.S. CDC covid vaccine adviser quits after RFK Jr. ended recommendations
The aim of the COVID-19 immunisation programme is to prevent serious disease (hospitalisation and/or mortality) arising from COVID-19. Over the last 4 years, population immunity to SARS-CoV-2 has been increasing due to a combination of naturally acquired immunity following recovery from infection and vaccine-derived immunity (this combination is termed ‘hybrid immunity’). COVID-19 is now a relatively mild disease for most people, though it can still be unpleasant, with rates of hospitalisation and death from COVID-19 having reduced significantly since SARS-CoV-2 first emerged. Age has always been strongly associated with the risk of hospitalisation and mortality from COVID-19, with the oldest in the population being the most vulnerable. As COVID-19 becomes an endemic disease, and with a move towards standard assessment of cost-effectiveness, the focus of the programme is shifting towards targeted vaccination of the oldest adults and individuals who are immunosuppressed. These are the 2 groups who continue to be at higher risk of serious disease, including mortality. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-vaccination-in-2025-and-spring-2026-jcvi-advice/jcvi-statement-on-covid-19-vaccination-in-2025-and-spring-2026 -

Health Covid Cases Spike in Thailand: 28,000 New Cases in Just Two Days
Thailand is tough, because the hot and humid weather produces a lot of sweating, etc. At least for N95 masks, there is no hard and fast 1 day rule... I generally wear mine longer than that, but that's because I only wear them when I'm going outside for limited periods, not when I'm staying at home most of the time as a retiree. The general rule for N95s has been they're OK to continue wearing until they become soiled, worn, damaged or breathing thru them becomes more difficult. I think common sense generally should apply. -

Thai immigration online 90 day reporting system (2025)
Good day. A quick question (sorry if it was answered before somewhere in the forum): I have a 1 year visa extension valid until January 2026, but I exited Thailand few weeks ago with a regular re-entry permit, so everything should be fine. Nevertheless i got an automatic notification if the 90 days reporting ,which i should do it within mid June (last time i did it online in March). I wonder why i got the notification if the system should "know" I have exited Thailand. So, what I am supposed to do ? Just let it go without doing anything or contact the inmigration office by email ? I ask because this is the first time i get the 1 year extension (based on retirement 50yo +800K+ THB). -
