My wife and I joined the 15 million who have had their booster shot. I have a hat trick: J&J; Moderna(2): Pfizer.

I can guarantee you many people in The US got much more than $500k in free funny money from the US via PPP loans they handed out like candy 🍬. Many of which went to companies that were making plenty of money. No accountability whatsoever. The Employee Retention Credit revamped in 2021 was as bad or worse. Imbeciles running the asylum. And people wonder why we have an inflation problem.

Ex-Nigerian official gets 5 years for pandemic fraud in US (yahoo.com)
A former Nigerian government official was sentenced Monday to five years in prison for stealing more than $500,000 in pandemic relief benefits in the United States.
Abidemi Rufai was wearing a $10,000 watch and $35,000 gold chain when he was arrested at JFK International Airport in New York on his way to Nigeria in May 2021.

As of August 23, the CDC estimates that over 238,000 excess deaths have occurred from causes other than COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic in 2020. In order to prevent this high level of excess mortality moving forward, we need to consider what triggered these non-COVID-19 excess deaths and clarify our takeaways from the mortality data since the beginning of the pandemic.
Research suggests the pandemic's social, economic, and healthcare system disruptions precipitated excess deaths through a variety of mechanisms. Drug overdoses spiked, homicides soared. Patients and providers postponed preventive health and cancer screenings. Medical care diverted to COVID-19 patients delayed treatment of acute conditions such as heart attacks and strokes. Though road traffic decreased during stay-at-home orders in 2020, certain risky behaviors such as driving under the influence and speeding increased among some groups.

Had ducked it until a couple weeks ago. Surprise visit from the landlord a few days after she tested positive, wife and I both became symptomatic a couple days later. Congestion for me, that plus fevers and a lingering cough for her. Lots of folks I know who have been incredibly diligent, N95s everywhere and mostly still isolated except for work and necessary errands, are now getting it. BA.5 comes at you fast, I guess. Stay safe, y'all.

At the recent WCs I missed five days because my track-buddy-and-co-ticket-holder cousin, who was staying with the hammys, tested positive on the first Sunday. Gave away some tickets, sold others.

Coming back from Eugene I wasn’t feeling so good. Tested positive on Monday, along with two other members of TFN Tour group staying in same wing of motel. On Th my wife tested positive. With over 100 nations present in Eugene, I’m sure it was a superspreader event.
