Post-Holiday Travel Chaos Amid Covid Surge

Money was gifted to the Airlines the CEOs got bonuses and this is what’s left! Thank your senators! Epic fail!
A new study published on the preprint server bioRxiv assesses the antiviral activity of stenoparib against four severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants of concern (VOCs). This study also focuses on the inhibition of the SARS-CoV-2 Alpha variant by a combination of stenoparib and remdesivir.
The researchers of the current study also evaluated the inhibitory action of a combination of stenoparib and remdesivir against the Alpha variant. When combined, the drugs acted synergistically and plaque inhibition increased to over 90%
Since stenoparib inhibits a host protein, the antiviral activity of stenoparib should inhibit all variant strains. The current study explored the activity of stenoparib against four SARS-CoV-2 strains including the SARS-CoV-2 67 Germany/BavPat1/2020 wild-type strain (wt), as well as the Alpha, Beta, Gamma SARS-CoV-2 VOCs.
We need help in indiana i need cops. Bloomington and evansville.

This is probably caused by all those travelers during Thanksgiving.
China's game plan is working!! Destroy and take over!
No need to watch the old movie Planes, Trains and Automobiles, most people have had to live it in real life.
Lol 🤣 really.
Nice.
Heck yes
Flyers in the 90s; " I do vitamin C, Zinc & Echinacea for viruses with recycle air"…Flyers in the 20's; " Is my right to die flying", sad.
I first got COVID Nov 2020, Got 2 doses of Pfizer and was one of the first to get boosted at the end of August as a health profession student- and I still got COVID again, tested positive today with symptoms starting on Christmas
Whom Can We Trust If No One Is Trustworthy?
One of my favorite quips from Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is when Tom is defined as “a glittering hero…the pet of the old, the envy of the young,” and there were “some that believed that he would be President, yet, if he escaped hanging.” With these few words, Twain captured the essence of leadership in our world. Those who get to the top are the fiercest, most determined, and most ruthless. Today, the latter quality has become so intense that we can no longer believe our leaders, and certainly not trust them to have our best interest in mind.
I am not accusing any leader in particular, or even leaders as a whole. It is simply that in an egoistic world, where people vie to topple one another on their way to the top, the one at the top is clearly the one who trampled over and knocked down more people than anyone else. Concisely, to get to the top in an egoistic world you have to be the biggest egoist.
So how do we know whom to trust? We don’t know and we cannot know. All we know is that we are in the dark.
In a culture of unhinged selfishness, any conspiracy theory seems reasonable, while truth is nowhere to be found. When every person who says or writes something is trying to promote some hidden agenda, you have no way of knowing who is right, what really happened, or if anything happened at all.
The only way to get some clarity in the news and goodwill from our leaders is to say “Enough!” to our current system and build something entirely independent. The guiding principle of such a system should be “information only,” no commentary. Commentary means that information has already been skewed. Information means saying only what happened, as much as possible, not why, and not who is to blame and who we should praise.
Concurrently, we must begin a comprehensive process of self-teaching. We have to know not only what is happening, but why we skew and distort everything. In other words, we have to know about human nature and how it inherently presents matters according to its own subjective view, which caters to one’s own interest. To “clear” ourselves from that deformity, we must learn how to rise above our personal interest and develop an equally favorable attitude toward others. This is our only guarantee that our interpretation of things will be even and correct.
Once we achieve such an attitude, we will discover that the bad things we see in our world reflect our own, internal wickedness. Our ill-will toward others creates a world where ill-will governs, and so the world is filled with wickedness and cruelty. Therefore, all we need in order to create positive leadership—and to generally eliminate ill-will from the world—is to generate goodwill within us. When we nurture goodwill toward others, we will fill the world with goodwill. As a result, the world will fill with kindness and compassion. By changing ourselves, we will create a world that is opposite from the world we have created through our desires to govern, patronize, and often destroy other people.
The airlines cry about losing business, now covid isolations are shorter. If these cases aren't mild, then expect civil unrest. 🙄 😤
American pandemic experts?
Get serious !
Covid deaths US 838,234 India 479,997 UK 148,003 Germany 111,291 or China 4,636 Australia 2,197 New Zealand 50.
The USA, where you used to be able to own people but now suddenly wearing a mask is having your freedom taken away. H.Franklin
US parents protest at school meetings about? A: 185 school shootings in 10 years B: Masks.
Social media and mainstream broadcasts showing American pandemic mismanagement is BORING. Land of the free my butt.
The news SHOULD BE New Zealanders have ONLY 50 deaths NOT Americans having a WHOPPING 838,234 !
US government should consider vaccination requirement for domestic travel, Fauci says. Interpretation? We do not want to reward the intelligent disobedient who think they can escape. They need to know that we will rule their lives
Malware is a computing system when you get the all the apps then you'll get coronavirus and then die yep
I have a question do we still need to download apps if we got it all the apps then you'll get the virus from Melwere
yuk, gross. stay home. humans are amazing at suppressing basic survival instincts.
BS surge and govt's illegal mandate response= flight crews protesting leading to cancelled flights.
the people have something to fight for. the fear mongering terrorists of the binladen regime do not. we will win in the end.
In Canada no one can fly unless they are fully vaccinated, including on domestic flights.And our vacination rate is about 90%.Yet in the US unvaccinated people are still allowed to travel.No wonder the country has so many cases of Covid19.When will America smarten up.Covid will not go away without the necessary action of getting vaccinated.Travel is a luxury for most people,not a necessity,and certainly not during a pandemic,of both an actual disease and stupidity.
It was a false alarm, we see now Omicron is not at so dangerous as you had us believe
#ConvinceItForward
BIG Dummies😜should of stayed home.
As the deaths increase, Biden fights for hundreds of billions to build bridges and roads, and combat climate change. How about building a hospital or clinic in each state? China is building hospitals!
Glad i stayed home and spend some time to myself. Nothing like clearing your thoughts and watch some anime on tv
Get vaccinated. Wear masks
We don’t care, just saying.
I can't believe that anyone would even CONSIDER flying for pleasure under the present conditions.
No. What has fueled the chaos are dumb vax mandates that have resulted in staffing shortages for the airline industry.
See what living in Fear does to continuity of society! Not an accident
We could have stopped this day 1. But we all chose to be fools. This is our reckoning everyone. This virus will wipe us all out. Maybe not next year or the year after that, but it will. The Earth will be cleansed of us all. We will breathe our last. And frankly… we deserve every last second of it, for being so foolish.
This is crazy.
protest ……..tyrany 2021 12 27 2021 11 minutes ago
eventually this will work, patience needed to allow more and more and more to join the line…once we get to 5 million per protest, you'll see the rats start to scurry away as their ship sinks….
second ago amen we the people must organize like the politicians and bankers always have first our money now our life's ////////////
So airplanes are catching covid?
KARMA!!
