ung pagbago ng expectations -- ung akala natin mag back to normal na dahil meron na bakuna
ganyan din mga investor
tumaas ang stocks related to leisure travel (airlines, hotels, gaming, cruiselines, theme parks, restaurants, mall based retail, online travel agencies etc) then faded when delta variant spread

PM Morrison seems out of the loop regarding herd immunity and current vaccine shortcomings...
Australian PM defends lockdown strategy as daily cases hit record | Coronavirus pandemic News | Al Jazeera
Scott Morrison, the prime minister of Australia, is defending his government’s lockdown strategy for tackling the coronavirus, saying it will stay in place until at least 70 percent of the population is fully vaccinated, as daily infections break records.
Sunday’s 914 cases of the highly infectious Delta variant surpassed the previous high of 894 a day earlier.

"liver function tests."
the elevated values suggest that there is significant illness (inflammation) going on in the liver.
there are many possible causes.
infectious hepatitis.
gallstones.
drug-induced liver injury. the list of suspect drugs and non-drugs are very long.
neoplastic process.
also,
kidney injury can result in increased levels of these transaminases and phosphatases.
even the covid virus itself,
can cause an increase of these values.
so yes,
specialist consult is in order.
good luck.
ivermectin?
strangely, googling gave conflicting results.
while some say yeigh, it can rarely cause liver injury,
others say neigh.
azfar kamal?
googling,
the person that appeared is not an md.
he's a phd in a non-medical field.
is this tweeter message real?
one last thing,
i am wondering,
bat siya nagpa-testing?

Just got my 1st dose, Moderna sa solaire, although hindi ako sa drive through na book, sa loob mismo ng solaire. Marami naman tao na guide so madali lang. The whole process took about 15 minutes.
I like the process na papakita nila yung syringe na may laman then papakita ulit after na wala na laman.

when i had mine,
they showed me the un-broken glass ampoule, then proceeded to brake it and pull the liquid contents into the syringe, and injected it into my deltoid.
at that time, there was no reason to suspect foul play or error issues.
years ago,
when i was at the other end of the syringe,
i never did go thru the trouble of showing the patient the ampoule or the syringe...

Note blue lines, of 60+ years old (first to vaccinate), in the past 2 weeks:
~35% drop in cases
~30% drop in hospitalizations
~20% drop in critically ill
Stronger than in younger people & not seen in previous lockdown![]()
