"If we're running a crisis-situation vaccination campaign in the future, we should avoid allocating just enough vaccines to push the population to herd immunity," Boni said. "Instead, we should purchase more vaccines than we think we need, roll out the campaign as quickly as possible, and push the total number of vaccinees well past the herd immunity threshold."

Penn State. Home of Michael Mann Hockey Stick “science”. Stopped reading right there.

I dread airplane travel of more than 30 minutes. As you said we are in a confined area sitting shoulder to shoulder and breathing in same air.
Cruise ships even in dining rooms have 100 times more air space than any aircraft.

I had it in January 2021. As of March 2022, I still have plenty of antibodies.

My wife has highly compromised immune system. She is fighting stage-4 cancer diagnosed 51 months ago. Chemo kills not only cancer cells but also healthy cells, including red corpuscles. She also had 4 jabs, and enjoyed 5 cruises since Sept 2021 with me. We found cruise ships to be safer than any restaurant because of higher hygiene protocols. Also every passenger must show result of covid test done within 48 hours of sailing. No such thing in restaurants. We did not see or hear of any covid outbreaks on all 5 cruises

biden proved the kung flu is a scam when he waltzed into the white house, disbanded trump’s “operation warp speed”, opened our southern border, and continues to covertly spread over 2,000,000 (2 million) nondocumented unvaccinated invaders across our country during a supposed “global pandemic” while anthony fauci, the cdc, the nih, the world health organization, the enemedia, hollywierd, and the majority of our elected representatives sit back and watch...

trust our government to protect you and your health at your own peril...

Those who got sick after 2020 was over, were the vaxxed. Those who are constantly getting sick are vaxxed. All of the purebloods I know of, are happy healthy and determined to remain so through usage of supplements and good living.

Good, you are one of the lucky 40% or so. The approximate 50% of those who were jabbed, still got sick. Some multiple times.

Thank you for that reply. I am sorry to hear about your wife.

I think that the opportunity was there, and sadly untaken, for cruise ships to be COVID safe-havens and get-aways. Yes, testing before boarding, but also UV scrubbers in the air ducts, IR thermometers in the halls, Ivermectin out at sea - the list is almost endless for what could be done. They could advertise that you’d never be safer, and mean it.

My best to you both, and especially your wife.

Unfortunately, too many people in my part of the world seem to think this is still the plague rather than the flu, and wear their worthless cloth face nappies like the morons they are. As long as they don’t insist that I wear one, I can tolerate their paranoia and stupidity.
