Junk click bait churnalism.

As the article itself makes clear, these are trivial levels of emissions. Ranting about how they're thousands of times more warming than carbon dioxide is meaningless - we use tiny quantities of these gasses.

Seems that the covid cases stat is busted too: every single county shows 0.0 on my device.

😂😂😂

NPR's stats page for the Virginia election has stats for % white and covid cases / 1000. And not much else.

Also rented a scooter earlier today. which was so sketchy the seat was broken and none of the electrics worked, including the gas gauge... Unsurprisingly at one point I wound up pushing it a few hundred meters to a gas station. 😂

TFW the music stops at the bar... because they're running it off a phone and the owner needs to make a phone call.

"work well" is now a ~35% relative risk reduction. Possibly worse in practice as vaccinated infected are less likely to realize they are infected.

So much for 95% effective. 😂

I do now!

They actually store the conch in the water to keep them fresh. I ate a few earlier...

Wildlife!

Status: enjoying the best the Bahamas has to offer.

Gee, who would have thought that risks and benefits are different for different demographics?

...and now New Zealand...

Amazingly there are extreme left NZ politicians who want NZ to go back to their zero covid strategy. All the vulnerable have been vaccinated. Give it up.

tl;dr: zero covid was a gigantic waste.

Singapore is very close to 100% vaccinated; the remainder is almost all children too young to be vaccinated.

A friend of mine went to a festival a few weeks ago where over 100 people were infected out of 400 total. Only one hospitalization, and that person was in poor health. All the same, they got better quickly. Covid just isn't very dangerous to anyone young and reasonably healthy, vaccinated or not.

...though even more awful to wear than normal... Huge amount of dead space trapping CO2; kinda scary that the pilots are wearing this nonsense.

Funny enough, not all the flight attendants are. Some have simple cloth masks.
