Hey Reb..I was driving down I85 in NE GA today and gotta say I ahem never seen so many trucks. Outnumbered passenger vehicles. Are logistics picking up IYO?

End of the year it always picks up . Companies trying to get those orders out and the books cleared before the end of the year . The pressure is on .

Ahhh..makes sense and I should of known with Christmas and end of year and such
 
Latest work day I've had in 2 years. Flu has exploded, and I had one teenager that was vaccinated today (our first such case). I really hope she's an outlier. Great feedback on the efficacy of the single dose antiviral Xofluza (although it's now almost impossible to find, and Tamiflu is getting scarce).

Plenty of other respiratory viruses, strep, and several cases of pneumonia. I haven't seen a single CV+ yet this week.
 
Press release from Pfizer concentrates again purely on antibody level to recommend booster. Further down it actually talks about continued T cell response against omicron after just two doses.
 
I think many of you will actually enjoy this article. I know I did.

The 60-Year-Old Scientific Screwup That Helped Covid Kill

A quick summary:
  • Doesn't discuss vaccinations
  • Explains where the WHO went way wrong
  • Explains why things are still a mess regarding messaging
  • Easy read, not too technical
  • It's all about ventilation / air exchange
After reading this, I understand better why my department has lower infection rates than others on campus: we're in a Leeds Gold air exchange facility. My two instrumentalists who got sick and missed the concert were on either side of the one who came to rehearsal running a fever; less than two feet of space on either side.
