What’s done is done, but why? You have natural immunity not too long ago superimposed on artificial immunity. The idea of a formally documented prime-boost-booster regimen is emerging as a result of waning artificial immunity. I wonder if the ‘under the table’ prime dose won’t be considered de facto as a booster, leaving you in the lurch unless there is a way to integrate all you’ve done in whatever application certification is utilized. Though I suppose an unnecessary fourth dose won’t kill you … addict ;>D Moderna is also repurposing its RNA messenger for Delta variant of concern. These decision trees are getting complex.

I have forgotten both … what are they again?

This may be just as good a place as any to plunk this contradiction about Brazil rules. Apparently the São Paulo vaxx passort idea for bars (think crowded unventilated Lagoa) was backpedalled, yet a more outdoorsy venue …

They’re doing another ladies night September 6th, so it might turn out to be a first Monday of month thing.

So much cash sunk into it, yet the fate of a medieval peasant bairn at the height of a plague.

Update: It’s already been dialled back to certain activities that should not cramp much visitor style. Places in general may have the option to impose it as “recommended” but it is unlikely that many would require it.

I’m not digging for details currently but other members here may wish to investigate further … May 23rd is a typo; it’s today Aug 23rd. My sense is will be based on partial vaccination since they are well short of full inoculation due to supply chain.

Some are going to top4fans, in existence a few years.

AUP effective October 1st; relevant content must be removed by December 1st.

I think that JustForFans is having orgasms over the prospects of content creators bringing their business over. I believe they take 30% rather than 20%. Guys are starting to message reassuringly on their Twitter accounts where they also link their porn platforms. I imagine that consumers that paid longer subscriptions will see the more X-rated content censored by the creators themselves as the latter organize their transitions.

I don’t have the deeper details but it appears that flying into Fortaleza will require vaccination verification OR negative RT-PCR. Whether your airline can cope with these boarding bordering on absurd nuances among nations, regions, &c is an interesting proposition. Be aware it also applies for domestic flights into the state.

It’s been advertised for a few weeks for Aug 2nd. Labelled ‘Noite das Marias’. Has an Instagram account by same name. It may be an experiment that leads to more frequent or weekly, but I took it as one of those occasional Clube Das Mulheres gigs that pop up once in a while in various locations.

More poppers?

You would think Thermas might be closed again soon like it was during the incidence peak of a few months ago. CoV cases are surging, the past few days double the latest one-week average. However, any attempt to reimpose lockdown, actually enforce it, is likely to be without legs. Among young adults, natural immunity is considerably and rapidly increasing. https://www.voanews.com/covid-19-pandemic/spain-struggles-contain-rising-covid-infections

But you can read between the lines … AstraZeneca conjoined with Siam BioScience for its sole site of S/E Asia mass production. Ties to royal family, no vaccine manufacturing history whatsoever, fell short of first delivery domestically and internationally, which I believe was set at a corresponding 1:2 volume ratio. The kicker is that according to ‘majeste’ defamation law inclusive of potential prison penalty, overt critical appraisal is muzzled. I imagine that the production is chugging along as one would expect growing pains. For perspective, within production targets the initial fill-and-finish is impressive. If you judge according to the vast need it will always appear substandard.

Pray tell, what is the white & grey device plugged into the power outlet?

When baggage handlers pull a dick move cockwise …

42 members go by ‘Dora’?

Right, all about the scintillating conversation … FullSizeRender.mov

Botox side effect; paralyzed facial muscles, cannot open mouth, typing fingers engaged in attempts to pry mouth open ... relationship breakdown.

I note that four of its border countries have higher novel coronavirus incidence rates than Brazil. Bolivia’s is similar. Uruguay is off the charts but they are quickly ramping up vaccination. They had previously allocated its limited supply to border towns near Rio Grande do Sul when the transmission vector direction was from Brazil into northern Uruguay. A few cargo ship crew (foreign nationals) arriving in Brazil recently tested positive for the Delta variant. These strains are going to be flown in anyway. ——- Rob, I guess salvaging your recent missed travel is back in the cards. ;>)

The details are still sketchy and the duration is unclear, but foreign nationals will be restricted from entry. An attempt at a ‘circuit breaker’ against the arrival of people bringing in novel coronavirus variants of concern. Being Brazil, this decision could be predictably unpredictable and swing back and forth in the courts &c. I suppose it is conceivable that some organization of exceptions will follow, the wobbly vaccine and or other immunity signal certification progressively emerging and such.

Members here have speculated on the future of Lagoa, Point, 117, etc. Online competition. Altered social engagement contexts. The population and age pyramid trends point to an overall increasing growth of 15% from 2010-2030. Moreover a marked increase in the so called ‘silver economy’ demographic. That is, significantly increasing numbers of middle-age-and-up queer men outgrowing nightclub options, if that was even their thing, and needing a more conventional, beyond virtual, outlet on weekend evenings. Many are single, with few socializing opportunities within their orientation. All this likely transcending the ravages of COVID. Savvy business in Brazil is mindful of the bulging proportional population share of older folks. I think there will be constancy in demand for a range of entertainment venue outings. I am counting on it. FullSizeRender.mov
