    Seems a reasonable use of the dogs if this is something they can reliably scent.
    My best friend has done years of scent training in the various areas - live, cadaver, etc. It is amazing what a good dog/person team can do! Dog is older now and only does the scent work for "fun".

    Some experts are saying we can't keep boosting people every few months, as it will bankrupt us. Ya think?

    I wonder how “some experts” would compare the vaccination program to the stealth bomber program and which is more likely to bankrupt us.

    EDIT: My morning news said that repeated boosters from the same manufacturer may start to lose effectiveness. Going by a six month schedule I suspect things will change by the time I might come due again.

    You people are just plebs to worry about gubmnt. It just creates money. I’m almost to the point of not even thinking about it anymore, it’s just such a shit show. There’s a seems to be an endless stream of gubmnt money And I plan to be dead by the time the piper must be paid.

    I'm not worried. Just discussing, assuming I am one of your shit show plebs to which you refer.

    Now France has another variant that’s less contagious than omicron but they don’t know yet how deadly.

    My dentist just sent out an email that all patients will have to show proof of vaccination to be admitted inside their office.

    I’m sure you’ve heard of what’s going on between the Chicago Teachers Union and the Chicago Public Schools.

    The head of the CTu is named Jesse Sharkey. If that’s not a perfect last name for a union president, I don’t know what is. Especially in corrupt Chicago.

    My son works as a server in a restaurant where you are required to show proof of vaccination in order to enter. He's the vaccine bouncer, and he said he's surprised at how many people show cards with only one vaccination on it (about 30%).

    It came to France from Cameroon, a country without adequate access to initial doses of the vaccine because First World countries were hogging vaccines for boosters. The World Health Organization warned about this - and was ignored. Delta came from India. They warned about it again. Omicron came from South Africa. They're still warning about it. What are the chances the have's will listen this time? I think there's a zero percent chance.
