Pretty sure the military stopped offering the spray a few years ago though. I think they said it was less effective or something. I know when they made us get the flu shot and 1 other thing I can't remember. Think it was smallpox or something, the nasal ones gave them a bigger "vax hangover" than people that got the shot.

Guess I got lucky. Never heard of a smallpox nasal spray but I also haven't ever had a reason to inquire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVScout Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Unvaccinated adults age 65 or older who contracted the coronavirus were 49 times more likely to require hospitalization than seniors who had received booster vaccine doses, according to new data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Unimmunized adults in that age group were also 17 times more likely to be admitted to a hospital than those who had received either two shots of an mRNA vaccine or one Johnson & Johnson dose. Meanwhile, unvaccinated people between 50 and 64 years old were 44 times more likely to need hospitalization compared with their boosted counterparts. .............men infected with the coronavirus showed signs of a short-term decline in fertility, according to the research, which was led by an epidemiologist at Boston University and published in the peer-reviewed American Journal of Epidemiology. It was funded by the National Institutes of Health. U.S. wastewater samples suggest the omicron variant of the coronavirus was probably present in the country more than a week before its first case was detected, a new CDC report said on Friday. The sewage samples indicate the variant may have been spreading in New York City as early as Nov. 21, shortly before researchers announced omicron cases in the southern African region late last year, and 10 days before the United States identified its first case, according to the report. Free: Why most of us should be wearing N95 masks The short answer: Because they’re the most protective, and they’re finally widely available. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2022/01/20/n95-mask-effectiveness/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I quickly found, the ban was reported on Nov 26. The first samples were collected Nov 21. Maybe they hadn't processed them yet and didn't realize it was here at the time? The ban was lifted fairly quickly afterwards and expired NYE iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most experts advised that a travel ban wouldnt prevent variant spread and that by the time of discovery it had likely already left the area.

Helps to actually read what you’re posting. Quote Vaccines were more effective at preventing infection or serious illness than natural immunity from prior infections before the delta variant became the dominant strain. After delta became the main strain, vaccines alone grew weaker against the virus and natural immunity got much stronger. This could be due in large part to the fact that vaccines began wearing off around the time delta spread, according to the study. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
