Druff is about to learn something about probability Dwai. I doubt there is any coaching that will help him at this point.
My experience with the outbreak in the northeast indicates that the booster provided near zero protection from infection but symptoms were milder for those boosted.
Everyone got sick.

I had planned to visit a friend this weekend, who has a kid that Ben is friends with (they're the same age).
Ben got a nasty cold on Friday, and I called it off, not wanting to get anyone there sick. Ben still has the cold, so the entire weekend was out.
Good decision!
Turns out that person had Omicron and didn't know it yet. They attended a very crowded concert in a large arena on Friday night, and felt symptoms late last night. Positive test today. This person only had two shots, the last being in April 2021.
Probably dodged a bullet there thanks to Ben's cold. Maybe the vaccine would have helped, but maybe not. Being right in the same house with another adult during the most contagious days of their Omicron would not have been good.
I have thought a lot about the WSOP. We are seeing surges again, since the boosters from late last year are wearing off, so a lot of new vulnerabilities exist. It's still Omicron, but a more contagious variation of it. There is some chance I will get it there. I acknowledge that, and am going to play anyway.
People are going to be significantly less inclined to stay away if they have it as well. Last year it mattered, no one cares anymore. I would buckle up and expect it if I were going to sit in a room with thousands from all over for 12 hours a day.
Hopefully you don't get it amid a deep run. I'm sure you would respect others health and stay away.

The irony is that there is probably 100 different cold viruses Druff is going to expose himself to at the WSOP and given his immunization status Omicron is probably one of the milder ones. And this is especially true in Druff's case as he lives with someone who had Covid earlier this year and he didn't even get it, so obviously he has some sort of built in immunity (either genetic and/or through previous exposure).
I think Omicron will be a tougher thing to go through than anything I've caught at the WSOP, maybe with the exception of the really really nasty cold I picked up in 2010, which knocked me out for 2 weeks (plus gave me viral pink eye!) That one remains the worst cold of my life.
Everything else I've picked up at the WSOP has been of the run-of-the-mill cold variety, which while not pleasant, wasn't anything which knocked me off my feet. Getting Omicron at age 50 will probably result in at least a very unpleasant illness, I'm guessing similar to how I felt on the vaccine (but lasting longer).
I think I didn't get Omicron from Benjamin because I had just gotten the 3rd shot two and a half months prior, and immunity was pretty good at that point. The jury is still out on whether the fourth shot does all that much.

I can't belive how wrong your thinking is. I'm 55 and after 2 heart atack(2012 and 2020). I had Omicron with my 2 dougters (15 and 18) in February. None of us vacinated. We took amantadine very first day with the symptoms... the girls were OK very next day, I was 50% better, and had some mild symptoms in day 4, then 100% OK. This wasn't even close to some bad colds in the past... but truth is I haven't had cold for at least 5 years. Your whole thinkin looks to me like you wanna make belive by yourself that vacinnation was good idea... it's presently obvious it wasn't, but you keep writting this bullshit about vacinnes latelly more then earlier in 2021. With all the lies by Faucii, CDC WHO and lefl-side media how anybody can belive in anything they say?!?
ps. good luck with jab#25
There are a lot of people who are over 45, have preexisting conditions, and had a not-so-bad experience with COVID.
I also personally knew 3 people in their 50s who died of it -- none of whom were otherwise likely to die anytime soon.
Some people run well with it, some run bad. You have a much better chance of surviving it and having no permanent damage, but if you're on the wrong end of that gamble, you are either in the ground or permanently damaged for life.
I prefer to take my chances with the vaccine, which while not perfect, carries much less risk than getting COVID at my age.
I do not hold it against anyone who chooses to do the opposite. It should be a personal decision. I agree that the left lied about a lot of shit, so I did my own research.
"I prefer to take my chances with the vaccine, which while not perfect, carries much less risk than getting COVID at my age."
Right... much less risk with vacinne... where have you read about it? They lied about kids and covid vaccination - you think it was different about adults?
You are from LA - what about weldet baskets on Venice beachg courts, destroyed beach - voleybol courts and destroyed skateparks for kids?
The same people force media coverage about this scam.
Anyway I have not found any evidence to vaccine myself and please belive me I have been reading and watching a lot to be sure what my decision should be.
But I hope and wish you, Druff, to be healty and win next bracelet in 2022 WSOP!
I never supported any of the outdoor closures, and in fact didn't really support any closures once it became clear that they don't stop the spread.
In fact, I violated the outdoor closures in my area when they shut down hiking trails and other stuff like that. I refused to respect such bullshit.
I do not think there was a mass manipulation of statistical data regarding the vaccine's protection. That's conspiracy territory. I do believe that the risk of the vaccine is a little higher than first claimed, and young people have good reason to not want to take it (especially in the Omicron age). I do think it is wise for anyone 45+ to take it, but I don't think anyone should be forced or pressured to do so.
The chance of COVID harming me at age 50 is much higher than the vaccine harming me. I am very confident when I state that. At age 20, that becomes a much tougher question to answer.
The survival rate for Covid has not changed.
There’s no vaccine for stupidity.
Dwai pointed very important thing:
Druf:"...I do not think there was a mass manipulation of statistical data regarding the vaccine's protection..."
They started with manipulation from the beginnig of the pandemia.
1. Picture of coffins in church in Italy in March 2020 - after 2-3 months it was found this picture was few years old and it were coffins of illegals from Africa drawn od the way to Lampeduza. But this picture went to media in all countries and most people did not notice this was false.
2. Picture of nonames masive graves in New York - claimed in May or June 2020 it was for covid deaths... after month or 2 it was cleared, that such a graves are in NY for many years - used for unnamed dead
3. Age of dead people from covid... they provided it for first month or two - then stopped in most countries - for sure in US and Poland... why? because average age of dead was 76 yars. I people in their 20 to 40 would know - they would never obey these stupid lockdowns.
4. Data from positive PCR test has been wrong from the beginning and looks like aroun 40-50% false positive... this is fuckinm coin flip!!!
5. Numer od covid deaths are wrong in US and Poland in circa 80%. That is because both countries payed extra for covid patients in hospitals. I know about people with heart conditions who went to hospital for treetment and were tested positive so insted they were put in covid sections and die because lack of treetment for their real conditions.
6. Just lately CDC anouced 25% od kids died from covid was falsa
7. https://basiw.mz.gov.pl/index.html#/...zation?id=3761
this is official polish govermenmt database od contractions and deaths with covid. If you have any polish friends you will understand very fast (or use google translator - its only few words) - Pay spacial attention for 2022. We have 58% of population vaccinated... but in 2022 more then 60% of positive tests are vaccinated... more then 30% of covid deaths in Poland in 2022 are people who are fully vacinated!!! This is how good are these vacines. Yet we were lied in all polish media - in September and October of 2021 all famous doctors told us that only 1% of deaths are vaccinated people. You can see by yourself in this database - in that time 27.8% of deaths were vacinnated.
This data does not need more comments.
