Covid19/2021-22 OMICRON/ VIRUS "IHU" FRANCE:P13310/NEWEST VIRUS: "NEOCOV" HIGH INFECTION RATE+1 IN 3 DIE !?! P13315

OK, Hnry is in charge of post-SHTF COVID thread comms.

And between him and I, we should be able to get a power plant up and running to light up our dystopian post-apocalyptic community of survivors.

Where should we set up shop? Boulder, Colorado maybe?

Perhaps Las Vegas?

:flagg:

Mrs. SC found Dewalt saftey goggles that are bifocals with readers on the bottom. They are the bomb!

OK, I am WAY behind in catching up on this thread.

Ref the day's plethora of doomy news, I was just getting more comfortable thinking that maybe, just maybe, the virus was weakening. Hopeburger.

Ref the nicotine, my best friend took off for retirement in his motor home back in April. He gifted me several tobacco plants. I transplanted them to my garden. They grew HUGE.

I started harvesting leaves back in May. After drying them, I actually tried smoking a bit. Had NEVER used tobacco in my 70 plus years.

There is actually a study that says that pipe smokers live just a wee bit longer than non-smokers. How can that be?

Nevertheless, I now have a supply of Virginia Gold to smoke. Maybe that will turn out to be a good idea. I also ended up with about 10,000 seeds to plant next Spring if I survive the winter.

Ref people getting tired of restrictions and screwing up, that would be MOI. Today I had to go to my manufacturing company to pick up some things I need at my farm.

My totally adorable nine year old grand daughter was there. We started talking in the parking lot. However, since I cannot hear her high pitched voice well, I got closer. Forgot to wear my mask as did she.

The Queen showed up and I was BUSTED. The Queen is furious with me. As a matter of fact, I am deeply chagrined and worried about my error.

BTW, my grand daughter DID get Wuhan Virus and survived after a week of illness, which I knew before.

Ten days ago, it was The Queen who got exposed and I roundly criticized her. Now, its my turn.

All I can say is THANK YOU to my friends on GLP for warning me. I have prepped pretty well, but some of the latest news

Mexico 7,371 new cases and 627 new deaths

Looks like NZ CYA Mode Activated

They are now making tests mandatory for port workers. This comes after criticism yesterday (day before) that they weren’t taking it seriously and it was basically a mess.


Ports of Auckland being investigated as possible source of Covid re-emergence in Auckland

Mr Hipkins says there was testing of port staff already taking place and now it’s become mandatory.
..
He says testing has been rolling out across the 17 ports around the country which includes Auckland.

Here is where I throw my hands up.....

The port workers will never take it seriously. They can’t SEE it. And no itty bitty little thing will bring down those guys.

No problemo.

For those who are not aware it is perfectly legal for every US resident to grow up to .1 (that's one tenth) of an acre of tobacco for personal use.

That is over 4000 square feet or a 40 by 100 foot garden.

That is a LOT of tobacco. I ended up with over one pound of dried leaves off three plants.

Anyone on this thread who wants some seeds, just PM me.

Smoke 'em if ya got 'em.

BTW, it is also legal to brew 200 gallons of wine and/or beer per adult per year. 200 gallons is a six pack of beer per day. I used to brew my beer at 10% alcohol. Less bottling require for same effect.

One of preps was to buy some cheap malt extract from EC Krauss.

When an infected Bat was sent into an induced stupor via low temps to death inducing levels of cold, the virus exploded. Literally. Causing a massive faecal dump before the bats life ended, falling from its roost. In bats that were plunged into the cold, but then reanimated and brought back to tropical temps? The virus went absolutely fucking insane. It went for it.

In short, this virus is feeding off the brain and endocrine survival signals as it's own 'go'switch.

It KNOWS when it is under attack or when it can simply merry it's way through.


This is, mrs doom theories here, why the cold workers are getting hit in rapid succession.

The cold is literally turning the virus aggressive. And the workers are chilled from breathing in cold air.

The port workers will never take it seriously. They can’t SEE it. And no itty bitty little thing will bring down those guys.

Doctors Sue USDA for Ignoring Concerns About Potential Presence of SARS-CoV-2 on Meat And Poultry Products

WASHINGTON—The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine—a nonprofit with more than 12,000 doctor members—filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Agriculture on August 12 for ignoring concerns about the presence of SARS-CoV-2 on meat products and packaging. The lawsuit comes as the USDA recently denied the organization’s May 20 petition requesting that the USDA require slaughterhouses to test meat and poultry for SARS-CoV-2 prior to making it available for sale and require grocery stores to warn consumers of the potential presence of SARS-CoV-2 on meat and poultry products....
