Again we have DeSantis maths stretching the truth once again.

On the 4th Deaths in Florida totaled 55,619, 3 more were added on the 5th and the 6th, and today the 7th another 2 deaths were recorded, according to the DeSantis rules.
So we have 55,619 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 55,627 56,407

The rest of the healthy game is to avoid sitting right next to anyone infectious!


There are SO MANY Infectious Diseases...

Indeed so, yes.

Which is why we have vaccines/jabs to protect against the worst of them!


Stay safe folks!

A very sad consequence:


Orphaned children—more than 140,000 US children lost a primary or secondary caregiver due to the COVID-19 pandemic

Regardless of any denials, the real world is undeniably real.

Yep, but it has propelled Florida past New York into 3rd spot on the U.S. death list and with that outdated data being trickled in the way that it is I wouldn't be surprised if they were a lot closer to Texas' number than comfortable. Meanwhile California had the grand opening of their 70K+ death clubhouse as the U.S.'s death count passed 730,000.

The U.S. also had the grand opening of their 45M+ case club house while the U.K. became the 4th member of the 8M+ club, but they'll be at the bar drinking by themselves for a bit until Russia get there. ;-)

Other case milestones were Cuba becoming the 38th member of the 900K+ case club (Kazakhstan should enter that clubhouse tomorrow) as Nepal was the 44th to enter the 800K+ clubhouse and Moldova became the 80th member of the 300K+ club (Slovenia should join them tomorrow).

Yep indeed...

So let's see?...

ALL of 'em for this part of the world.


So... As all UK kiddies should know for the old childhood killers of old:

Mumps, Measles, Rubella
Tetanus (a few times over!)
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis C

More recently:
COVID

Possibly/likey also Whooping Cough, Tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, Polio, Diptheria (too young to remember those!).

I'm also fortuitously benefiting from the total vaccinations of the past that have ERADICATED the old nasty killers of Smallpox and Cowpox.

Which presently covers all the nasties for this part of the world.


Which has transformed public life since the dark bad old days where people would die in the streets...

Stay safe folks!

Strange you should mention that...

There has been a lot in the press and research news about people being anxious and depressed about all this Coronavirus/COVID malarkey...

One take-home from people who have been vaccinated is that their mood was much improved by having been vaccinated!

They told me the Pfizer vaccine early on was about 95% effective, so why did they never tell me it might not protect everyone?

/sigh

You; Loved Ones; Friends; Special People you dig are ONE of the 5 Percent. ONE or TWO or THREE of them Succumb.

Yet, All of Us need not be Told such a Known Fact. It is What We LIVE WITH.

100 Percent of News and Talk in General is about da 95 Percent who Will LIve. How 'bout 5 Percent of Talk be about How ONE of Many('cause 5 Percent is a Many) Will Die?

If Big Pharma is Going to Make BILLIONs and BILLIONs and BILLIONs(Don't you Love C. Sagan?) ONE and Many Should Hear da

WHOLE STORY. (Without a Tortured and Fruitless Many Times Search for it)

Yep

The 5% are the people that will catch it after being vaccinated.
But because they have been vaccinated the effects are greatly reduced, many of these will get a mild illness, some will enter hospital for a few days. But the real good news if you have both doses is that the chances of going into the ICU are slim and death is unusual.

It is NOT that this 5% will die.
Since the start of Covid-19 it hasn't caused 5% deaths.

Their belief that everything they are told is a lie is very deep rooted.

A dark winter beckons:


Flu jab vital this winter along with Covid vaccine
wrote:
The public are being reminded to come forward for their flu jab to maximise their protection ahead of winter.

Health officials are worried because this will be the first winter Covid and flu circulate fully at the same time.

Research shows those infected with both viruses are more than twice as likely to die as someone with Covid alone.

More than 40 million people across the UK - 35 million in England - are being offered a jab this year in the biggest flu vaccination campaign so far. And this includes, for the first time, all secondary-school children...

... the level of immunity to flu was likely to be lower this winter because very little of the virus had been circulating last year, because of social distancing and lockdown. "It is really important people get vaccinated,"...

... Flu kills about 11,000 people on average every winter in England and during the last bad flu winter of 2017-18 the toll was more than double that - with more than 300 deaths a day during the peak. Flu and the other winter viruses also lead to more than 1,000 hospital admissions a day in winter months...



And yep, with all the lockdowns and social distancing, I've missed out on the usual blasts of flu and sniffles these last two years!

I'm off for my flu jab very soon. The covid booster is to follow.


No brainer really.

Stay safe folks!

The world's case total by the end of the last reporting has passed 238.3 million and deaths have passed 4,862,300.

The top 50 of the death list only had 1 change was Myanmar replacing Portugal in 37th spot so onto the case list.

Anguilla displaced Wallis/Futuna from 208th place, the Caribbean Netherlands was replaced by Saint Kitts/Nevis in 201st while Antigua/Barbuda slipped past Sao Tome/Principe into 194th, Dominica nudged Saint Martin out of 192nd as Grenada and Bermuda both passed San Marino to claim 184th & 185th spots respectively, Barbados jumped over both Yemen and Gambia to land in 172nd and Saint Lucia ducked past the Channel Islands into 169th.

Nicaragua took 161st spot from the Congo, the Bahamas passed Lesotho, but remain in 148th because P.N.G. took wing again to fly over both of them as well as the Seychelles, Belize and Haiti before needing to refuel in 144th, Laos jumped over Togo and Tanzania to take over 140th as Syria displaced Mauritania from 135th, Suriname nudged Madagascar out of 127th while Angola removed the Ivory Coast from 119th, Jamaica cruised past the Maldives into 114th and Singapore leapt over Cambodia and Cyprus into 107th place.

Australia also leapt over Cambodia and Cyprus, but added Uganda to that list to claim 105th, Ghana took 103rd from Namibia while Moldova kicked Oman out of 79th, Lithuania booted Libya from 74th as Croatia and Palestine moved past Kuwait into 64th & 65th places, Bulgaria trampled over Ecuador to take hold of 56th and Belarus flicked Saudi Arabia out of 52nd spot.

Lebanon lost 49th place to Georgia, Vietnam leapt over Hungary and Jordan into 41st as Serbia became the 36th member of the 1M+ club, Belgium flew on past Pakistan into 32nd while Romania blew Israel out of 30th and Thailand flew past Chile and Czechia to land in 25th spot.

Well that's it for now, until next time.
