North Korea has had strict mask mandates for 3 years, not lifted until July this year. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/north-korea-appears-lift-covid-mask-mandate-reports-say-2023-07-04/ So it all depends on whether, from your own political perspective, you consider North Korea to be "far left" or not.

Popular Post dinsdale Posted August 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2023 Well it's been a while. Time for the next article recommending getting jabbed. This variant is just another Omicron variant so you would expect similar symtoms i.e. symptoms akin to the common cold. This thing will probablly go on for decades continuing to mutate or until it mutates to a point it is no longer highly transmissible and dies out. Some of the most vulnerable will succumb but the vast majority who get infected will recover with a % not even knowing they've had it i.e. asymptomatic. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that the two cases, a 65-year-old man and an 11-year-old girl, were members of the same family in Bangkok who were diagnosed with HK.3 and have already recovered, adding that it will take about two weeks to determine whether the new sub-variant is highly transmissible. He disclosed that, during the past two weeks, 15 cases of the EG.5 sub-variant had been detected, plus 8 more cases more recently, as the sub-variant is spreading with the likelihood that it may replace XBB.1.16 as the dominant sub-variant in Thailand.

Popular Post Sydebolle Posted August 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2023 The Mesopotamians, Egyptians, Romans all the way through the Inquisition, Napoleon, Stalin, Hitler, Kim Il Sung, Pol Pot or Newin had one thing in common. They scared their underlings for power and, regretfully, were mostly successful. Covid 19 was no different; most governments misused this highly contagious flu to scare the "*ç% out of people and creamed off zillions of dollars in "fighting" against humanity's nemesis. This planet has been facing the ever-evolutionary flu, all originating from the virological family of corona. Knowing what we know now about "Covid 19" these days, it is up to each and every individual to query the serious threat to society based on "two new cases" of a flu virus. Latter is evolutionary and will do everything to survive by adopting continuously. Every North European or North American can confirm, that flu is, predominantly, a standard "winter nuisance"; some years you come down with the flu, other years your body manages to sail through without impact. Every year a few hundred thousand (mostly elderly or people with health pre-conditions) regretfully die on health deficits which are facilitates by the weakening of an evolving flu virus. "Pure" flu deaths exist as well but it is almost impossible to put a percentage on that small number. I took the public statistics of an European country and compared the total number of citizen living in the country and compared the total number of deaths in the same country - over 20 years. And, guess what, no spikes nowhere. Before you would die of cancer or heart weakness, the last few years you saw "Covid" in lieu of the afore-mentioned. It is like AIDS, nobody dies of AIDS but the body's weakening due to AIDS facilitates the death which a person might avoid, if NOT infected with AIDS. In closing, be careful and keep an eye on your health but keep the whole subject within reason and common sense. Two cases in a population of 70+ million ...........? The blackmailers now will refer to "it always starts with two cases" - your call! 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post goatfarmer Posted August 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2023 13 hours ago, ukrules said: I know plenty of people who've had a bit of a 'heavy cold' for 3 to 5 days recently (last few months) with about an additional week to full recovery. Nobody that I know who's had it seems to be reporting it to anybody, cold medicines help and it goes away quickly. I had it myself recently after a night out, as did the Mrs. My point here is that if nobody's reporting it to anybody then they won't know about it. For it to show up in waste water in Bangkok means there's a significant number of people being infected, they're just not going for any kind of treatment - probably because it doesn't require anything you can't find at the pharmacy - or anything at all. When I had it all I took was a decongestant, I didn't even take anything for the fever as is was barely noticeable, I fixed that by altering the AC temperature. I had it at the end of July and, out of curiosity tested (positive) for covid. Bingo! One day of fever, mild chills, a week of snotty congestion and a couple of weeks feeling a bit heavy. No big deal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds very similar to my experience although it seemed to clear up a bit quicker for me, there was a lingering throat clearing thing that lasted around a week - a slight annoyance. Now what really bugs me is that they took the pseudoephedrine based decongestants off the market due to commercial scale drug manufacturers using it in massive quantities to make meth or something like that. None of the alternatives work for me at all at any dose. So due to the actions of these gangsters I can no longer buy the most effective thing that dries up your nose 100% while you're taking them and I had to ration the few capsules I had left (Benadryl Plus from the UK - not the same as the US product I believe) for night time use so I could sleep properly - sleeping with a runny / blocked nose never works for me. That was my biggest concern during the week I had it - clearing my blocked nose so I could sleep well.

Repeat infections with COVID appear to cause exponential damage, particularly to the circulatory system, with an increased risk of heart attacks and strokes, and the brain, with an increased risk of dementia - infection is essentially vasculitis. With children we have no idea what the long term consequences will be. But you just keep on doing what you do, pal, and I'll keep wearing a mask and getting a vaccination.

Not to mention the peculiar association of the colour red with the political right, and blue with the political left. The great Usofan republic leading the world ... Meanwhile back in the real world ... In Oz the current advice I saw 3 or 4 weeks ago was that the new round of viruses was highly infectious but likely less nasty than the Omicron round. And on the basis that most people (in Oz) have now reasonable levels of resistance to covid (because of previous infection +/or vaccines) people should wait 3 or 4 or 6 months before getting the latest round of all-inclusive vaccines still being readied for distribution.

IamNoone88 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 The local "flu" is not pleasant. Slow to kick in and then a peak over a few days and then slow to wind down - look forward to it keeping you company for 10 - 12 days. Not a 48 hour bug. This one delivers a persistent throaty cough and lethargy ... but not enough to keep you in bed ... just drags you down a bit.
