When will the coronavirus arrive in the US? (Disease: COVID-19; Virus: SARS-CoV-2)
They've quit publishing daily deaths here and made it it difficult to find any information. All they talk about now is infection rates and how vulnerable kids are.

Word came down last week from our union president. Trades are exempt from the new mandatory vaccine policy where I work. So I dodged that bullet this time. We have however gone back to mandatory masks for everyone. All comrades have to wear the face diapers of shame regardless of vacc status. At least they are allowing us to remove them when we are outside now. Back to counting, 1346 more days till retirement. Smile

This will never end. Unless a clear majority of people simply decide to quit cooperating, this is the future of this country.

Nope, not gonna happen. Think of how many shots these folks get. They may not be happy, but most will comply.

Yes. Two weeks ago when picking up our new squid from A-school he said " There is no way I'm getting the shot, it's not FDA approved" Yesterday after being at his new duty station in Bahrain " I'm getting the shot as soon as possible, we can't go anywhere without it" He wants to travel

When I was in, we lined up for shots. Me: What's this shot for? NCO: Shut the fuck up and move along

This is how it's going to happen for most folks who are holding out. They don't believe in the jab, they don't want the jab but they will comply when it prohibits them from doing something they want. It's just a matter of how many rights will need to be stripped to get everyone to fall in line. Then what comes after everyone is vaccinated. My wife has a trip planned to the Dominican this winter with my sister in law. We haven't really talked about it but my guess is she wants to go badly enough that she will get it if it's required to go. My daughter has been asked to chaperone a group of middle schoolers to London and Paris this fall. It's the trip of a lifetime for her something she would never be able to do otherwise. First thing she told them is if getting the vaccine is a requirement she will not be going.

You were lining up for shots of long-used and tested vaccines. Not an experimental, non-FDA-approved "treatment" that you have NO CLUE what it's going to do to you in 1 year...3 years...10 years.

And for which there is ZERO accountability for adverse effects. There is no admission of adverse effects, let alone avenues for compensation, recourse or punitive actions.

If you end up with a permanent disability from these mandated, UNNECESSARY, actions, then tough luck.

So one of the highest vaccinated countries on Earth is now not safe to travel to.

"Israel has been registering a surge in cases, with over 6,200 new virus carriers registered on Monday, the highest since February. Over half of the new cases were fully vaccinated."

https://www.jpost.com/israel-n...arning-by-cdc-676325

Israel given highest COVID travel warning by CDC

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have classified Israel at Level 4 for COVID-19 risk, the highest level in their system, recommending that Americans avoid travel to Israel.

“If you must travel to Israel, make sure you are fully vaccinated before travel,” the warning issued on Monday reads. “Because of the current situation in Israel, even fully vaccinated travelers may be at risk of getting and spreading COVID-19 variants.”

Except if I were going into a war zone where there was a relatively good chance of being attacked with anthrax, I would take the risk of getting a new, experimental vaccine rather than catch that extremely deadly bacteria.

I don't understand this. Get vaccinated even though you can still contract and spread. So, why?

Almost comical. Is the CDC producing skits for SNL?

Most people in Israel are "fully vaccinated" and it's spreading like wildfire, but if you want to go there you should be "fully vaccinated" too.

The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

I believe, and this is what sane folks are trying to point out, that the vaccine doesn't kill the virus but supposedly lessens the effects.

So if you're going to go to a vaccine-fueled metropolis, you'll probably get it because the vaccinated are the new zombie.

The CDC has published plans that could result in the forced removal of people from their homes to place them in government “Green Zones”. The “Green Zones” are quarantine facilities. There are different levels of quarantine as outlined in their document.

To find this online, go to the CDC website https://www.cdc.gov/
Go to the Search box at the upper right-hand corner and type Green Zones.

The first entry that appears is the following:
Interim Operational Considerations for Implementing the Shielding Approach to Prevent COVID-19 Infections in Humanitarian Settings
https://www.cdc.gov/coronaviru...ch-humanitarian.html

^^^^^^^^^^
If I recall correctly EVERYONE in the military was required to get the vaccine.
