Dr. Scott Gottlieb, the former commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, contends that companies that make vaccinations mandatory for their employees likely won’t need any additional precautions against the coronavirus. “I think businesses right now probably don’t need to be implementing additional measures,” Gottlieb, a physician who worked at the FDA und... read more

Goodbye Blogger
For decades I have used the google search engine and posted my thoughts in google blogger but in recent days everything on that platform seems to have gone tilt.

That I can cure by simply using a different search engine as my default, my current choice is Duck Duck Go.

Immunology, vaccinology, epidemiology 101
Australians have become the world's nuttiest nation when it comes to their response to Covid-19, a fact that I have expected because of their extremely risky zero-Covid strategy. There have been some lockdowns (especially in Melbourne) in the recent year despite the near-absence of the disease. There was always a risk that these extremely costly restrictions only postpone all the events by a certain amount of time. In recent months, most Australians were ordered to stay at home. They can only leave for "essential" reasons. Helicopters, soldiers, and barricades have been deployed eve... read more
