    They still won't take it.

      The virus that causes chicken pox, lies dormant in your nervous system, where your immune system can’t get it, for decades. Then much later in life the virus can reactivate, infect along those nerves, causing shingles.

      This is the important part of the chicken pox vaccination the we don’t talk about nearly enough.

      • If you get chicken pox, you’ll probably be ok (although not everyone is) and get over it, becoming immune. But the virus will still lurk, opening you to shingles attacks when you’re much older
      • if you get the vaccination, you’ll probably not only not get chicken pox, but will also not get shingles

      If you have older relatives and friends (50+), do remind them that we have shingles vaccine: Shingrix.

          Does the sugar stripping affect any other bodily functions? Stripping is temporary but it still may have permanent effects for some existing conditions.

          Does a coronavirus need to be introduced at the same time sugars are stripped or is it assumed that there are already many in the body?

          Ok, you're missing a bit here. The "sugar stripping" happens in the lab, during the production of the immunogen, which would then later applied as a vaccine. From there the vaccine induces a response from the immune system, creating antibodies which are specific to the highly conserved part of the stalk structures on corona viruses. As a result one's immune system is prepared for when a corona virus shows up at some point after the vaccination.

            I wonder how this could help those with long COVID.

            So I've read up a good bit on this topic / issue. Many times long covid can be a result of the infection causing neural damage which then leads to long term inflammation. While this isn't the only reason for it, doing a protocol to repair damaged neural tissue and receptors has been effective with people I know. It has reduced or removed the symptoms they experience.

                      This is a good point. I do tend to get my vaccine shots (Covid and flu) on Fridays to account for recovery days.

                        Ah. Yes. I was thinking the sugar stripping happened in the body. So this more a vaccine enhancement tool.

                              It includes the latest release, but it's the same one included on last year's flu vaccine.

                              I think the devs may be quietly winding down support over the next few years.

                                Not really a valid assumption. Most vaccines are not available at tourist clinics, though maybe they should be, seems like the demand is increasing.

                                    We'll have an fda, once they rip it to sheds they'll stock it with whoever they want to and then say look we fixed the fraud, listen to these guys now. Having a government agency that can say "no drug that competes with an oligarchs drug you can't be approved" or "yes, you can shove unproven computer tech into people brains" is far to powerful to throw completely away.

                                      There are people who have genuine medical reasons to not take vaccines (e.g. an allergy to a common ingredient) or who are so immunocompromised that a vaccine won't keep them alive, and they rely on other people getting vaccinated to avoid dying. It's not just antivaxers who antivaxers kill.

                                        To my knowledge, there is nothing indicating this is the plan at this time.

                                        And I sincerely doubt we'll "ever" have that policy. Because the people most likely to go on leisure (or even work) international trips are generally middle/upper middle class who need to be kept placated to make sure they still post memes on reddit but secretly cheer that the fbi is going to protect their teslas.

                                        Whether other countries are going to block our access is a different conversation but is also unlikely.

                                        That said: Anyone who CAN get out should work on getting out.

                                        doubt we’ll “ever” have that policy.

                                        They likely won't do it just to do it; driving forces would be required.

                                        If we reach a point where there are serious side effects of lacking engineers, doctors, and nurses due to expatriation, they'll stop allowing travel. It'll come as part of a martial law crackdown.

                                        In the long run, people won't put up with it; in the short run.... would you REALLY put it past them?

                                          Coronaviruses are not the only cause for what is considered the "common cold". I remember that some Rhinoviruses, Adenoviruses and I think a forth family of viruses also cause symptoms that are counted as a cold. It's kind of a catch all term.
