Somehow I feel safer as long as 100% of the people around me are wearing their face masks properly.

True. But in reality, there will always be ONE who will not be wearing this properly.

And all it takes is ONE to infect the many

yes, in the photo that Devastator posted I could see a guy wearing a mask with his nose exposed

Now there is a USA variant of the Wuhan virus...


White House coronavirus task force warns of 'aggressive community spread' and possible 'USA variant' - CNNPolitics

possibility lang

wala pa genome sequence ng highly transmissible variant in the US that's distinct from the UK and SA variants

-

possible na meron highly transmissible variant that evolved in the US that have the same mutations as other highly transmissible variants

-

you don't need to import a highly transmissible variant... it can arise in your own country

-

flight bans can prevent imports but you can't stop evolution

Kala niya siguro his faith alone will protect him. This one is on the organizers when s*t hits the fan.

Fake news pala...

False Reports of a New ‘U.S. Variant’ Came from White House Task Force - The New York Times

Reports of a highly contagious new variant in the United States, published on Friday by multiple news outlets, are based on speculative statements made by Dr. Deborah Birx and are inaccurate, according to several government officials.

The erroneous report originated at a recent meeting where Dr. Birx, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, presented graphs of the escalating cases in the country. She suggested to other members of the task force that a new, more transmissible variant originating in the U.S. might explain the surge, as another variant did in Britain.

Her hypothesis made it into a weekly report sent to state governors. “This fall/winter surge has been at nearly twice the rate of rise of cases as the spring and summer surges. This acceleration suggests there may be a USA variant that has evolved here, in addition to the UK variant that is already spreading in our communities and may be 50% more transmissible,” the report read. “Aggressive mitigation must be used to match a more aggressive virus.”

Dismayed, officials at the C.D.C. tried to have the speculative statements removed, but were unsuccessful, according to three people familiar with the events.

I completed the 9 day novena mass online. Yung kanina 4:30 am ang mass. I am so groggy from lack of sleep but I asked for the normal test results of my fat lab.

I also watch the 12:15 pm mass daily, I noticed now nasa 600+ lang nanonood, normally that is never below 1k+,karamihan kaya around the quiapo area?

Cathey nakatry ka na ba jan sa paHALIK???

Live Masses.
i wonder,
are the songs pre-recorded?

my fear is,
live singing by an unsuspecting asymptomatic singer, can spread the virus inside the confines of the simbahan...

Yeah, God helps those who help themselves. Hindi pwede yung all on God

Cathey nakatry ka na ba jan sa paHALIK???

ano yun? Last month of December lang ako nag start sumubaybay kay Nazareno though my maternal great grandmother was a devotee, pero ibang iba naman nung 1940s

Ang ganda ng boses ng singer doc. Pero yung priests ang layo nila sa crowd tapos mataas pa yung area nila. It's so beautiful nga when they have a mass officiated by a bishop and daming other priests and lay ministers

Nagtataka lang ako sa social distancing, shouldn't it be 6 feet all around. Yung sa side lang meron pero sa front and back wala. Naalala ko tuloy nung grade school pag may flag ceremoney and when we form a line yung itataas mo arms mo sideways and to the front para may distance sa line haha

yup wala pa ako na-come across na US variant

i mean sa twitter

i follow people who track SARSCOV2 evolution and there's no mention of discovery of a US variant of concern (VOC)

so far the most worrying is E484K (South African lineage) coz it can escape polyclonal antibodies

more worrying yan kesa sa UK strain

Vaccinated people can still get infected with Covid-19. Here's why - CNN

Vaccinated people can still get infected with Covid-19. Here's why - CNN

the explanations:

the effect of the vaccine to one's immune system, takes time. some manufacturers say that if the vaccine schedule is a two-dose injection, the effectiveness of the vaccine will start about 7-14 days after the second dose.
during that gray area, one may still get infected.

if the vaccine is 95% effective, then 5% of those who get it are expected to be un-vaccinated and susceptible to infection.

it is still not fully known just how long the protection of the vaccine will last. it is conceivable that one may get infected, once the vaccine's effect wears off.

di naman parang deflector shield ang bakuna sa covid

ung di ka na tatablahan ng virus?



what the vaccine can do is prevent severe illness

for those who would end up in the hospital if they got covid, the vaccine will keep them out of the hospital

at best it will reduce covid to a milder illness

[dr. d]

di naman parang deflector shield ang bakuna sa covid

yung face shield ay ang deflector shield.
heh heh.

[uls]

yung face shield ay ang deflector shield.
heh heh.

hehe

kaya there's advice that if one is already vaccinated mag mask parin

the vaccine is an added layer of defense... para pag nakalusot ang virus, mas malaki chance di maging severe

One year na pala tayo naghihirap dahil sa CHINA

Tapos sina Dut-Duq natulog sa pansitan at ayaw mag travel ban agad kasi ayaw saktan ang damdamin ng China.
