As best I understand, these studies looked at vaccinated vs. unvaccinated who had not yet been diagnosed with Covid. Since it is known that vaccination reduces the likelihood of subsequent cases of Covid in those who have already had it, it would be expected to reduce the likelihood of Long...

I honestly think that this is just an observation of proximity. As long as Russia (or it's successor) is next to Ukraine, it has an advantage and an interest that the US does not share. It is not to say that Russia or it's successor will necessarily continue it's adventurism should it's politics...

Yes, we are on the same page. And I agree with the concept of a two state solution. It's just that I think some of your points, ancestral rights and improvements, are distractions that could be applied to other peoples' claims, and including them weakens rather than bolsters your other points...

Of course, we agree, treaties are only as good as those agreeing to them, and history is all about breaking them. And you don't need to remind me of the recent history of Israel. I am quite aware. However, you keep going back to things like ancestral homelands (along with property...

Jews were not tribes? 12 comes to mind? Anyway, it is beside the point. I totally respect the right for Modern Israel to exist and to do so in safety. But I think rights come by treaty, not genetics or religion, and every time someone confuses that, irrational conflict occurs.

I might be confused about what you are saying, but I am not sure mosquito abatement defines rights to a region of land. The history of the planet is replete with the horrible treatment of one tribe on another, up to and including today. White settlers attempted to wipe out native Americans...

Big lift if you apply it to everyone, not just one group.

Well, I will be honest and let you know that I was so involved in wrenching the car into the correct lane that I didn't notice, and I let my subscription lapse because I left town for 3 weeks and wasn't driving. Nevertheless, if even sometimes, it registers the lanes, or road arrows, and...

Well, come on over to Idaho and try it! Guessing about my experience is like looking at a cookie. Until you've tasted it, what do you really know? We'll have a beer and a laugh.

Nice sunny Sunday morning. The intersection was just painted after the winter sand and salt scrubbed the paint. No one else in the intersection. Couldn't be more perfect. The car drove into the middle (straight only) lane (green light) and ignored the left turn only lane (green arrow) and...

Or, your map was updated. How do you know it wasn't? If you live in a place where the maps are constantly updated and accurate, you wouldn't know. What you are proposing, that FSD reads signs and lanes some places and not in others, makes no sense to me. How could that even be? Mind you, I...

12.3 always tries a left turn from the center lane at a major intersection on the south end of our town. It is freshly painted and the traffic lights and turn lanes are clearly marked. The intersection was revised a year ago. Clearly it is following old, out of date, inaccurate maps and no way...

Well, there you go! Someone used their personal email for official business! I'm still glad they saved masks for HCWs when they were short.

If I understand the paper referenced by @NikolaACDC correctly, and if it proves out, it alleviates, or at least reduces, the concerns about vaccine "imprinting" which is mentioned in the article from yalemedicine that I referenced above. This would open up the possibility to more frequent...
