Re: [MBZ] OT Covids vax
As I recall, the CDC hedged their bets by taking both sides of every issue, at some point. Micromanagement? I'll never know.

Re: [MBZ] OT Covids vax
Short term success in this plague is no measure of long term effectiveness. There are small victories that have not withstood the test of time. Kauai, HI shut itself off for seven months and now is being hard hit by infections. AK also thought it had a handle, but that early control was shown to be immune to the reality of disease spread. New Zealand also though they had mastered it, but keeps getting hit while being sealed off from the world. And the list of places that followed the narrative of plague control are now hotbeds. The West Coast is full of sheeple who would willingly follow mandates and narrative. Yet that willingness to isolate and mask has not translated into a reduction. Medical centers are filled to the gills. Maybe the agenda would have been more effective had historical data been used to plan for the inevitable secondary and tertiary waves that would truly tax and be greater yet than initial contagion. The public was shown those trends as they were trotted out by talking heads and officials as a means to convince the populace that such as thing as “flatten the curve”. Which really just meant to prolong the disease until an effective response could be mustered. Today we are witnessing just what a sham the flat curve was. Nobody seems to have bulked up a response to better handle the coming surge. Where are the bigger treatment centers and beds? Who has all the N95 masking, gloves, gowns that the current wave requires? How many of the laid off medical staff are being repurposed to care for both the infected as well as those requiring normal care? The disease has been kept at a simmer… low and slow. That seems to point to an effort to keep it a crisis, not to effectuate a reliable treatment or cure. Now the discussion is how to triage. Since the pooch was screwed, we will now be looking at providing treatment for those who can be saved instead of the heroics for all methods used over the last ten months. Today, doctors and administrators really are deciding whose Granny gets to live and who they will be sending to the morgue. An acceptance of the reality of lacking required resources, proper treatments, true dimensions of the transmission, and hubris those in charge are guilty of. May have been more realistic to have allowed the thing to burn out and achieve herd immunity naturally. That is what happens in Africa with Ebola, no matter how much prancing around WHO/UN/MSF and the Gates Foundation did. It will be decades before there is enough verifiable data to show what really was effective and what was tissue paper dreams. Just like medical proclamation of the magic of radiation treatments has turned out to have been a lethal dose of false narratives. From Marie Curie on, and that is just one example of modern doctors and medical professionals getting things oh, so, very wrong. Diet pills, pain pills, early government endorsed treatments for HIV/AIDS turned out to be damaging, ineffective, or outright toxic and became public health embarrassments. All that Oxy pushed by doctors could well be the root cause of the homeless crisis. FDA and CDC endorsed the use. Look how right they got this crisis. Or, lets ban and not allow research into THC, which is very effective in treatment of many health issues. Helps with side effects of chemo, ophthalmic issues, and might even assist in breaking fatal outcomes in opioids laces with fentanyl. (Currently being investigated in BC Canada) There are no simple or easy solutions. There are no political personages who were not chasing their own tails on this. Because those supposed to be “enlightened” and medically trained or establishment endorsed speaking heads could not provide a reliable or consistent message from the start, and kept on vacillating if not daily then on a weekly basis. Hard to hit a target spun out of control by the people you are supposed to trust on the issue.

If they warned everyone about the pandemic and urged physical distancing/masking it would be politically unpopular. If more cautious they would be criticized as the death toll mounted. There were all sorts of countervailing practical concerns involved, which is why I hesitated to blame government officials unless they acted out of apparent malice.

Re: [MBZ] A quiz question for you
We have a large pool of officers and their families coming into the area due to SOCOM and MacDil AFB being here. Probably a third of my current neighborhood consists of active duty officers and retirees. They make for great renters, despite the sometime quick changes that can result from reassignments and TDY. However, the housing allowance they get is well over what most rents are if they have a family, so renting to them is easy and there is always someone right behind them if they leave. My former neighbor across the street has been renting their house to military only for the last five years and has only had about 2-3 months out of that time with the house unoccupied. We would have gone that route as well had we chosen to keep the place and rent. That being said, I just didn’t want the hassle of being a landlord. That, and the last mortgage we had on the place, a 15 year note, would have made for the cash flow to be minimal as well. We certainly would have turned a profit after taxes and expenses, but not enough that we thought worthwhile. Had we owned the place outright or had a lower mortgage payment, it might have been more attractive. -D > On Dec 19, 2020, at 11:04 PM, Rick Knoble via Mercedes > wrote: > > Dan writes: > >> It’s these stories that continue to reinforce that deciding to sell off the >> former house rather than keep and rent it was a very, very good decision. > > For you, it was probably the best decision.
