I suppose Epsilon is next... let's hope we're well rid of this pandemic before they reach Omega! As they will then need to start a new naming series...

Epsilon, Theta, Eta, Iota, Kappa, Lambda and Zeta already exist and they're being monitored.

A problem I have here is that several family members and friends around me are telling scare stories about the vaccine (not sure which one - there are several available in South Africa such as Pfizer, J&J and Astra Zeneca) plus the Sinovac approved now too) - my neighbour has a friend who had an allergic reaction and had a fit the night after her vax - bit her tongue and needed eight stitches. My own sister refuses it because she's worried they're not tested for long term effects and that it might be a "gigantic experiment with humans as the guinea pigs" sort of thing. She said she wouldn't have one if they paid her. And another old lady I know, says the long term effects might take a year or so to make themselves apparent. But she says the vaccines contain tissue from aborted babies - something which I did a fact check on but it's hard to change the minds of people who believe that they would do something so unethical.

My friend has registered for the vaccine, but also doing copious research into science-based medical reviews of Ivermectin, from numerous sources and countries. Since the rate of vaccine rollout is slow here, and less than 10% are vaccinated he's recommending it as a prophylactic as well as a way to reduce symptoms in those who have tested positive.

Well covid is now in the barracks next to my incarcerated relative.They have quarantined that barracks but have an open window between the two.It makes no sense.They told me to call back around three to talk to the warden.Its probably too late to keep the other barracks from getting infected but I have to try and help.If I don’t get a response I will call every government office I can to complain.Those poor people inside may be guilty of crimes but they don’t deserve to die from negligence.

Call the local news. They're always looking for stories, and it will usually get people to respond.

I'm not sure if you saw jimmy's post in this thread from 18th April.

He suffered a stroke. :(

I hope he is doing alright too and I'm always sending prayers.

The good thing with Jimmy....is that he was able to post AFTER his stroke.

I bet he's in a rehab facility now.

I did see his posts after the stroke, but haven't seen anything since. I hope he's alright.

There was one "jimmy m" post after the stroke...maybe someone helped him with that?

As of right now, his WP profile says he last visited WP on 25 Apr 2021.
