July 14, 20223 yr The judge in Doster v. Kendall just this morning certified a class action including all Air Force, Space Force, Guard/Reserve, Cadets, etc, and issued a Temporary Restraining Order prohibiting the AF from taking adverse action against unvaxxed members who filed a Religious Accommodation Request that is either still being processed or was denied. The TRO lasts 14 days, DoD has 7 days to respond and argue against class certification. At that point the judge either accepts DoD's argument, unlikely IMO, or more probably issues a Preliminary Injunction.

My guess is the government changes their tune suddenly and claims there is no longer a vaccination mandate, and thus the case has no standing to proceed. This is exactly what they did with the mask mandate when a federal judge issued an injunction, because they realized it would be much worse to their cause to have a completed ruling that sets a precedent. If they just admit defeat (by admitting nothing at all and simply dropping the mandate with no explanation) now, then 20 or 30 or 100 years later when the next pandemic hits, they won't have a clearly established precedent stopping them from doing what they want.

Curious how this works since for a lot of people the religious accommodation is acknowledged but then not having the vaccination is incompatible with service after the religious accommodation which is the reason for separation.

July 18, 20223 yr Got super tired last Wednesday and had a cough. Mama hounded me to take the test. Yep, ‘rona. A little whipped mowing the lawn Saturday, but now I’m back to being my normal dumbass self.
July 22, 20223 yr Quote Recently, The Lancet published a study on the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines and the waning of immunity with time. The study showed that immune function among vaccinated individuals 8 months after the administration of two doses of COVID-19 vaccine was lower than that among the unvaccinated individuals. According to European Medicines Agency recommendations, frequent COVID-19 booster shots could adversely affect the immune response and may not be feasible. The decrease in immunity can be caused by several factors such as N1-methylpseudouridine, the spike protein, lipid nanoparticles, antibody-dependent enhancement, and the original antigenic stimulus. These clinical alterations may explain the association reported between COVID-19 vaccination and shingles. As a safety measure, further booster vaccinations should be discontinued. https://virologyj.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12985-022-01831-0
July 22, 20223 yr Don't worry though... there are plenty of other sources telling us all how great these vaccines are!

July 30, 20223 yr Biden tests positive for COVID in 'rebound' case, doctor says Double vaccinated and double boosted...got the Rona and Rebound Rona...
July 30, 20223 yr Had the 'Rona for what I believe was the first time about two months ago. First signs were ear infection type symptoms with a low-grade fever (99ish) by late night. Tested and was negative. Had a hard time sleeping between sweats and chills. The next day I felt weak, exhausted with chills every once in a while. Took Nyquil that night to sleep. Day 2.25, felt noticably better without fever, but then felt tired again by night time. Day 3, felt exhausted again with a mild fever again. All symptoms were controlled alternating Tylenol and Advil. Decided to test again; positive. Day 4, felt like a million bucks with no symptoms. Never really got a cough. Symptoms never came back. My wife's parents both got it on Day 3 and Day 6, assuming from me, and were over it in about 3-4 days as well. My FiL is 86. Overall, I have felt worse with some colds and the flu.
July 31, 20223 yr According to DAL’s chief health officer (impressive med background), the new strain is weaker than the traditional flu. So yeah, everyone move on with life and stop buying into the bullshit.

That would keep a lot of idiots from leaving their covid caves (homes). I feel like I could start another Jonestown for all the dumbasses in the USA and solve a few of our country's problems with a good batch of kool-aid (This is obviously a joke, I am not an advocate for mass murder...or am I?).
