Jabs don't do anything to 'stop the spread', therefore they will be 'offered' time and again: 65+ now, the rest in Aug./Sept.; 'despite rising cases', there are no more hospitalisations
Thanks for your kind words! I'm glad you find these pieces interesting.
As to the cost-benefit (sic) ratio in terms of school-testing, I wrote about some bits and pieces about it (but nothing 'definitive', for lack of clear sources):
Vienna’s health and human services minister admitted—claiming victory—that 'up to 80,000 infections' have been prevented thanks to Vienna's blanket PCR testing mania; what’s the price tag, you may ask? Well, Mr. Hacker said this clocked in at 500m € (yes, half a billion), which means that for the small sum of 6,250 €, one of such infections was prevented. (At 1.9m inhabitants, this is tantamount to claiming every 24th inhabitant missed out on one opportunity to get infected; money well spent, I’d say /sarcasm).
Fascism in its finest hour. Guaranteed payments from government that only doesn't work, but kills off the competitors for resources because they know most of the other idiots want to live the over use of resources lifestyle like them.
Exactly, and on top of it--the régime has already 'donated' 7.4m of these 38m doses. Now, let's do the math, shall we? 7.4m times US$ 16 per shot = US$ 118.4m.
Nice price tag, although if that's the price of being perceived as 'virtue-signalling hard enough', it's probably akin to the régime's tip jar.
Large sweet fruit causes fatty liver disease, less of those, the berries are the good ones. White mulberry trees will grow there... if you could get your hands on nut bushes and trees too. Maybe skirret will make it!
"masks will have to be worn again as usual." I find the "as usual" disturbing. It's like these people are trying to make it sound like we've always worn masks during this outbreak or the other. It's normal, everybody, don't you see? We've always done it. Now about that war with Eastasia...
Chief Medical Officer Reich went on Vienna state tv last week and likened the ffp2 masks to 'winter tires', you know, a sensibl thing that 'normal' people do to stay safe.
Great reporting. Thank you.
I'd also be very curious to see the cost-benefit ratio of school testing regimens in Germany or more specifically Bayern. I'll see what I can find..

I have a tip for those types and they ain't going to like it because only revenge remains.
Excellent.
I keep on planting fruit trees and vegetables in the meantime!
Large sweet fruit causes fatty liver disease, less of those, the berries are the good ones. White mulberry trees will grow there... if you could get your hands on nut bushes and trees too. Maybe skirret will make it!
I also had Siberian Peaches (not much sweet) live through -30f.
Have tried growing european gooseberries? (Ribes uva-crispa)
They can generally take most any winter, unless there's permafrost the year around, and they aren't very picky with soil-type and such.
Taste is from cloyingly sweet to mouth-shuttering tart depending on subtype. I much prefer the green sour ones over the redder mushier sweet ones.
"masks will have to be worn again as usual." I find the "as usual" disturbing. It's like these people are trying to make it sound like we've always worn masks during this outbreak or the other. It's normal, everybody, don't you see? We've always done it. Now about that war with Eastasia...
This is exactly the problem.
