Couldn't be happier!

OK, OK, but at least wear pants this time, Oscar.

You ain't my boss... 😟

Ok.

Can you maybe read it as poetry? :-"

Oh, I'd love to be an Oscar Mayer wiener.

That is what I'd truly like to be.

'Cause if I were an Oscar Mayer wiener,

Everyone would be in love with me.

Oh, I'm glad I'm not an Oscar Mayer wiener.

That is what I'd never want to be.

Cause if I were an Oscar Mayer wiener.

There would soon be nothing left of me!

His bolgna has a second name it's M-A-Y-E-R

"The two-dose Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are more than 94% effective and it typically takes a few weeks for the body to build immunity after receiving the second dose, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."

Man-o-man are you fortunate to have been able to get vaccinated a second time! Now, you are like three weeks away from full immunity. What does the light at the end of the proverbial tunnel look like?

Condoms are more effective at 97%

Yesterday it was

On sale for $11.99

It's going to my cabin, the next trip up...

If u get cOViD and "beat it"...

Then your only immune for 4-6 months...

Supposedly

How long does this vaccine work against cOViD?

6 months?

1 year?

Forever?

Unknown. Hasn't been around long enough to know.

Even the aquired immunity is just hearsay, there's nothing definitive.

IMO, if you've had it, and recovered, you're fine. You're not gonna get it again, you're not gonna transmit it. The way the testing is done is part of the problem. You can have viral dna in your nasopharynx and not be sick. Doesn't mean you were infected, and doesn't mean you're clear 2 weeks later. But, again, just my opinion on the matter - like most other viruses, if you've been actually sick from the pathogen and recovered you're not going to recontract or spread it. However, the possibility remains that beyond the typically accepted 2 week period from symptom onset you may become very ill as the damage done invites other problems. We're seeing a lot of that in the last several months. "fully recovered" goes to fully incapacitated a month after the initial illness.

But if we're strictly talking about person to person transmission I don't think it's a thing once recovered from illness or vaccinated. But that's just clinical observation, not scientific data. That's still TBD. Note the vaccines are EUA, not approved. As are the tests. Because of all the uncertainties they'll not be approved until we have the data. Neither the test nor the vaccine. It will be a few years. And by then we could be dealing with the next one.

gotta keep wearing your masks, Whistle, and keep your distance...it aint over until the fat German angel sings...

congrats on moving your survival rate to the top of the board...

So your chances of getting sick or dying are increased?

I'm not gud wif numbahs... but I'm pretty good wif wurds.
