Coronavirus Reinfection Will Soon Become Our Reality

[link to www.theatlantic.com (secure)]

The coronavirus is very likely here to stay, even after the pandemic officially ends. The virus will continue to have opportunities to evolve; in its myriad forms, it will cross paths with many of us again and again. “Reinfections are probably something we’re going to have to get used to,” Barker said. But virus and human will grow accustomed to each other, reaching something of a détente; immunity will, over time, build like a seawall.

In other words, it's becoming the common cold.

I’m a numbers guy and having been tracking #Covid for the start. I’ve been worried why NY/NJ numbers not going down as quickly as other areas. Today we learn of a NYC area mutation and a local doctor just told me there is an emergency CDC call later today.

EUROPE AGREEMENT ON VACCINATION PASSPORT, BY SUMMER,...DISCRIMINATION ?

gasp

According to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, there is a European agreement on the introduction of a digital vaccination card. The certificate would come before the summer, Merkel said after the European summit.

But there is still no unanimity about whether there will be benefits for those who have such a pass. Earlier, Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz - following Israel - had argued for a uniform corona pass valid throughout the EU. For him, it must enable newly vaccinated people, people who have already had corona or people who have recently tested negative, to gradually return to normalcy and to travel freely between European countries.


Fully vaccinated people in Israel will regain their freedom, while unvaccinated or partially vaccinated residents will still be subject to restrictions. With a green passport, almost anything is possible again - including travel, because Greece and Cyprus have concluded an agreement according to which vaccinated Israeli citizens can travel without quarantine to the two Southeast European countries from mid-March.

Holiday countries

In an effort to reverse travel restrictions currently in place across Europe, the Austrian Chancellor had suggested introducing a green pass for those who do not pose a health risk. Sebastian Kurz wants a vaccination passport in Europe based on the Israeli model. He has received support for this from typical holiday countries such as Spain, Italy, Greece, Cyprus and Croatia. Kurz said he would raise the proposal today at the EU digital summit, after which Merkel said that “everyone agrees” that there should be a unified European digital certificate before the summer “so that travel within Europe must have more information. can."

The open question is, however, what the concrete consequences will be for who does and who does not yet have a certificate. According to Merkel, "everyone has pointed out that this is not yet about this with the current state of vaccinations". “We have to be prepared. But this does not mean that those who do not have a certificate will not be allowed to travel. No agreement has been reached on this at all. "

"To regain complete freedom"

“I am strongly committed to a green EU passport - as it exists in Israel - preferably digitally on the mobile phone so that everyone can regain the freedom we so value,” Austrian leader Kurz told Bild ahead of the EU summit.

It is clear to him: “Those who have been vaccinated must be given back their complete freedom. But this also applies to people who have just had corona - and therefore have antibodies and are immune, ”said Kurz. He also left an opening for all those who have recently tested negative. A return to free travel - without quarantine - will therefore be possible for anyone with a green passport. Should the EU not work on a corona pass, Kurz has stated that Austria would implement the plan at a national level.

Macron: "Unfair to young people"

Europeans were divided on the matter before the summit. Opponents of the introduction of a green passport include Romania, Germany, France and our country. They argue that the EU cannot introduce such a certificate until all EU citizens have had the opportunity to be vaccinated. These countries have also expressed doubts as to whether current vaccines provide adequate protection against new corona variants.

French President Emmanuel Macron insisted after the summit that "a balance must be found" and said there are still ethical questions to be resolved. He also thinks the system is unfair for young people who are at the back of the vaccination line. There is a good chance that they can only be vaccinated at the end of the summer or even afterwards.

The European Commission, for its part, is not in favor of Member States unilaterally issuing certificates granting travel privileges to vaccinated citizens, but is in favor of a joint approach. Unilateral vaccination passports "would cause problems since we are all ultimately in the Schengen area," said an EU source. "For example, it cannot be that Israeli and British tourists will be allowed more, while citizens of the Schengen area are excluded."

For the time being, travel outside the Union has been largely restricted. "There is a political debate going on, but such a measure should in no way lead to discrimination," added the EU source.

Border controls

In addition to Belgium, nine other countries that are part of the Schengen area are currently carrying out internal border controls to prevent the spread of the corona virus. The restriction of free movement is regretted at the European Commission. Belgium has been given 10 days by the European Commission to answer questions about the apparent lack of justification for the extension of the ban on non-essential travel until 1 April. The measure will be discussed on Friday during the Consultation Committee.

The chancellor is particularly concerned about the threats from variants of the corona virus. For example, Germany carries out strict checks at the border with the Czech Republic, a country that is badly affected by the British variant.

Dealing with the mutations was one of the main points of discussion among European government leaders. According to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, the British variant is now present in 26 of the 27 Member States. The South African and Brazilian variants have already emerged in 14 and 7 Member States, respectively.

The government leaders expressed their appreciation for the action plan, Hera Incubator, that von der Leyen presented last week. The plan should enable Europe to respond quickly to new variants in the development and production of vaccines. As part of that strategy, the Commission is also aiming for faster authorization procedures and more genome analyzes to detect variants.

(February 25, 2021) Tony Blair’s anti-freedom project continues, but ‘War on Terror’ is replaced by ‘War on Covid’
The ‘War on Terror’ seems to have morphed into a ‘War on Covid’. And guess what? Serial warmonger Tony Blair is a key figure in both,
seeking to curtail our civil liberties with the excuse that it’s all for the “greater good.”
The date: Monday November 6, 2006. The place: Downing Street news conference.
UK Prime Minister Tony Blair dismisses the civil rights argument against ID cards,
which his government is keen to introduce. He says it is an issue of “modernity” and “modern life.”

Fast forward fourteen years, and the same Tony Blair is saying much the same thing about Covid vaccine passports.
There’s been no more zealous British advocate of vaccine passports than the man the anti-lockdown journalist Peter Hitchens calls ‘The Blair Creature’.
“Prepare for a health passport now,” he said in December. “I know all the objections,
but it will happen. It’s the only way the world will function and for lockdowns to no longer be the sole course of action.”
Last week it was reported that ´The Blair Creature’ had been lobbying hard for vaccine passports to be included in Boris Johnson’s so-called ‘road map’ out of lockdown. And they were.
Back in 2006, ID cards were promoted as a way of tackling the ‘terrorism’ threat and keeping us all ‘safe’. Vaccine passports are presented today in the same reassuring manner.
The War on Terror and the War on Covid have so much in common. They both have five level ‘alert’ systems. ´The Blair Creature’ is the key linking figure.

(February 23, 2021) Federal law prohibits employers and others from requiring vaccination with a Covid-19 vaccine distributed under an EUA
Even though the FDA granted emergency use authorizations for the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna vaccines in December 2020,
the clinical trials the FDA will rely upon to ultimately decide whether to license these vaccines
are still underway and are designed to last for approximately two years to collect adequate data
to establish if these vaccines are safe and effective enough for the FDA to license.

This means that an organization will likely be at odds with federal law if it requires its employees,
students or other members to get a Covid-19 vaccine that is being distributed under emergency use authorization.
State law often prohibits retaliating against an employee for refusing to participate in a violation of federal law.
Organizations that require Covid-19 vaccination in violation of federal law may face lawsuits
under these state laws not only to block the policy but also for damages and attorneys’ fees.
Such potentially costly lawsuits can be avoided by refraining from adopting policies
that require vaccination or penalize members for choosing not to be vaccinated.

EUROPE AGREEMENT ON VACCINATION PASSPORT, BY SUMMER,...DISCRIMINATION ?

gasp

According to German Chancellor Angela Merkel, there is a European agreement on the introduction of a digital vaccination card. The certificate would come before the summer, Merkel said after the European summit.

But there is still no unanimity about whether there will be benefits for those who have such a pass. Earlier, Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz - following Israel - had argued for a uniform corona pass valid throughout the EU. For him, it must enable newly vaccinated people, people who have already had corona or people who have recently tested negative, to gradually return to normalcy and to travel freely between European countries.


Fully vaccinated people in Israel will regain their freedom, while unvaccinated or partially vaccinated residents will still be subject to restrictions. With a green passport, almost anything is possible again - including travel, because Greece and Cyprus have concluded an agreement according to which vaccinated Israeli citizens can travel without quarantine to the two Southeast European countries from mid-March.

Holiday countries

In an effort to reverse travel restrictions currently in place across Europe, the Austrian Chancellor had suggested introducing a green pass for those who do not pose a health risk. Sebastian Kurz wants a vaccination passport in Europe based on the Israeli model. He has received support for this from typical holiday countries such as Spain, Italy, Greece, Cyprus and Croatia. Kurz said he would raise the proposal today at the EU digital summit, after which Merkel said that “everyone agrees” that there should be a unified European digital certificate before the summer “so that travel within Europe must have more information. can."

The open question is, however, what the concrete consequences will be for who does and who does not yet have a certificate. According to Merkel, "everyone has pointed out that this is not yet about this with the current state of vaccinations". “We have to be prepared. But this does not mean that those who do not have a certificate will not be allowed to travel. No agreement has been reached on this at all. "

"To regain complete freedom"

“I am strongly committed to a green EU passport - as it exists in Israel - preferably digitally on the mobile phone so that everyone can regain the freedom we so value,” Austrian leader Kurz told Bild ahead of the EU summit.

It is clear to him: “Those who have been vaccinated must be given back their complete freedom. But this also applies to people who have just had corona - and therefore have antibodies and are immune, ”said Kurz. He also left an opening for all those who have recently tested negative. A return to free travel - without quarantine - will therefore be possible for anyone with a green passport. Should the EU not work on a corona pass, Kurz has stated that Austria would implement the plan at a national level.

Macron: "Unfair to young people"

Europeans were divided on the matter before the summit. Opponents of the introduction of a green passport include Romania, Germany, France and our country. They argue that the EU cannot introduce such a certificate until all EU citizens have had the opportunity to be vaccinated. These countries have also expressed doubts as to whether current vaccines provide adequate protection against new corona variants.

French President Emmanuel Macron insisted after the summit that "a balance must be found" and said there are still ethical questions to be resolved. He also thinks the system is unfair for young people who are at the back of the vaccination line. There is a good chance that they can only be vaccinated at the end of the summer or even afterwards.

The European Commission, for its part, is not in favor of Member States unilaterally issuing certificates granting travel privileges to vaccinated citizens, but is in favor of a joint approach. Unilateral vaccination passports "would cause problems since we are all ultimately in the Schengen area," said an EU source. "For example, it cannot be that Israeli and British tourists will be allowed more, while citizens of the Schengen area are excluded."

For the time being, travel outside the Union has been largely restricted. "There is a political debate going on, but such a measure should in no way lead to discrimination," added the EU source.

Border controls

In addition to Belgium, nine other countries that are part of the Schengen area are currently carrying out internal border controls to prevent the spread of the corona virus. The restriction of free movement is regretted at the European Commission. Belgium has been given 10 days by the European Commission to answer questions about the apparent lack of justification for the extension of the ban on non-essential travel until 1 April. The measure will be discussed on Friday during the Consultation Committee.

The chancellor is particularly concerned about the threats from variants of the corona virus. For example, Germany carries out strict checks at the border with the Czech Republic, a country that is badly affected by the British variant.

Dealing with the mutations was one of the main points of discussion among European government leaders. According to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, the British variant is now present in 26 of the 27 Member States. The South African and Brazilian variants have already emerged in 14 and 7 Member States, respectively.

The government leaders expressed their appreciation for the action plan, Hera Incubator, that von der Leyen presented last week. The plan should enable Europe to respond quickly to new variants in the development and production of vaccines. As part of that strategy, the Commission is also aiming for faster authorization procedures and more genome analyzes to detect variants.

congrats to NY. now they have their own variant.

vaccine pusher AC is wrong. the % is that for the original covid and maybe a few variants. however for SA it drops closer to 50% effective. that is a hgh estimate cause they really are not sure.

here is their great plan- 2 shots and hope. then to push more vacccine into u,they plan to give u a 3rd of the same damn vaccine that won't work on the new variants.so it is a booster shot of the same formula not re-calibrated for the new variant. if it didn't work why take more of it? isn't that logic going against everything they tell u bout medicines? if it fails ,call the doc and stop taking it. dumb dumbs

now shall; we review? let's go back to the 1970 and 80'2. what happened? DR pushed medicines left and right. basically became the pill pushers and told u not to use the guy on the corner but use us.

this led to what?? drugs being overused, then the bacteria and other germns became immune to the meds.and we created a drug culture with ppl addicted to multiple types of drugs.and now the medical field fears a super bug.

oh wait where are we now? we have several super bugs plus the virus mutations.what will happen if history repeats itself? we will create a super virus. welcome to present day. see the problems?

let me explain the push for vaccines in layman's terms-

we are the government and we are here to help u. that is exactly what that rere AC vax pusher is saying.

we made a vaccine and are here to help u. we will save u from the big bad virus we ourselvwes helped create. trust DR Frankenstein.

AC are u done yet? i asked days ago- why was the vaccine bad when TRUMP was president but great once BIDEN tok over? it is the same dman vaccine.

furthermore explain ,since this is your push, how a vaccine given to 2 in 10 ppl helps stop the other 8 from getting sick? that even defies the logic we get from vaccine pushers of measle and other shots.

plz leave and stop pushing the agenda. u are not getting that room in the bunker.come back with intelligent answeres or just don't come back.
