Covid vaccine effectiveness Prior to the most recent immune-evasive mutation (omicron), covid vaccine protection against infection and transmission decreased to zero  within about half a year , whereas protection against severe disease and death in senior citizens decreased from about 95% to about 50%  within 6 to 9 months  (depending on the vaccine, see chart below). Against omicron, protection against symptomatic infection has been shortened to  just a few weeks , while protection against severe disease remains uncertain. However, there are indications that omicron really is  significantly milder ...

2021 Year in Review: Madness, Mayhem and Tyranny By John W. Whitehead & Nisha Whitehead December 27, 2021 “Tyranny does not flourish because perpetuators are helpless and ignorant of their actions.  It flourishes because they actively identify with those who promote vicious acts as virtuous. ”—An academic study into pathocracy Disgruntled mobs. Martial law. A populace under house arrest. A techno-corporate state wielding its power to immobilize huge swaths of the country. A Constitution in tatters. Between the riots, lockdowns, political theater, and COVID-19 mandates, 2021 was one for the history books. In our ongoing pursuit of life, liberty and happiness, here were some of the stumbling blocks that kept us fettered: Riots, martial law and the Deep State’s coup.  A simmering pot of political tensions boiled over on January 6, 2021, when protesters  stormed the Capitol  because the jailer of their choice didn’t get chosen to knock heads for another four years.

The Beginning of the End? The virus part of the pandemic will probably soon be over. eugyppius Early reports  that Omicron is substantially milder than other SARS-2 strains are every day confirmed by new data. A month into the unprecedented South African case spike, driven entirely by Omicron, Corona deaths remain low. It’s earlier days in the United Kingdom, where Omicron is only just over half of cases. So far, though, it is the same story there: In the coming months, Omicron will outcompete all other lineages everywhere in the world. At that point, Corona will have completed its transformation into a mild coronavirus that nobody should care about, in the same way that nobody cares about other common human-infecting coronaviruses like hCoV-OC43. Unforeseen developments are always possible; Omicron might in time acquire greater pathogenicity. Particularly if we insist on vaccinating widely, we might drive its evolution in new and potentially dangerous directions. Those are, howeve...
