  1. In recent years, there has been an alarming normalization of far-right speeches all over the Occident and this opens the door to an increase in these appalling crimes. When I look at the decline of the right to abortion in different countries, of the increase in feminicides, homophobic and xenophobic crimes, I am particularly furious that rights groups and associations allow themselves to be infiltrated by Wokes who discredit and hijack the discourse and the actions of these groups with their trivial issues instead of allowing them to do their necessary work. Acquired rights are recent and without constant vigilance, they can disappear at the speed of light.

  2. “The Indian variant - known as B.1.617.2 - is thought to spread more quickly than the Kent variant, which was responsible for the surge in cases in the UK over the winter.

    In some areas of England - including in Bolton, Blackburn, and Sefton in north-west England and Bedford, Chelmsford and Canterbury in the South East - the Indian variant is causing the majority of infections.

    Dr Helen Wall, senior responsible officer for the vaccine programme in Bolton, said the rise in cases in the town was slowing but many of the areas with the highest increases had very young populations, and getting more of those vaccinated would help tackle the rise.”

    Of AZ or something else? I can't keep up these days, did they suspend second shots of AZ? :confused:

    In Canada, doses of AZ are now reserved for people who have received a first dose of AZ exclusively. However, a person who received AZ in the first dose has the option of receiving another vaccine in the second dose if desired. From the start of the pandemic, I declared that I would take the first vaccine that would be offered to me which would have been authorized by Health Canada. So taking AZ for my second dose allows me to move my appointment 2 months earlier, so it will be AZ.

    Secret data drops in the UK on a Saturday night ALWAYS indicate something bad...

    ONE titbit is how much more effect Pfizer is against the 'Indian' variant than AstraZeneca (Pfizer here! 🙏)

    Another article that compares apples and oranges. The study on the efficiency of the vaccine on the Indian variant is done on 2 doses received with Pfizer while the one on Astrazeneca is on one dose received. These results cannot be compared.

  5. No, because Democrats don't want to make sure they lose the next midterm and the next presidential election. No administration has and will seriously touch on this issue, because they are far too afraid of the political consequences. After the Sandy Hook massacre in 2012, it became clear that nothing serious would ever happen about it. If the killing of children hasn't raised enough outrage to put pressure on politicians, nothing will. Mass killings are now part of the United States DNA and are seen as sad but inevitable.

  6. :rotfl:I cannot believe that there are still people to defend the "record" of this disgusting evil man who manipulated the facts, lied continuously, walked hand in hand with the dictators of this world, flouting the laws and democracy a little more every day. Well no, he did not go to war with any country (although his irresponsible twits about Iran and North Korea could have turned out to be a disaster as they ignored any sense of common diplomacy)because he was far too busy stoking the hatred, bigotry and racism of his supporters bringing his own country to the brink of civil war.
