Philippine Elections 2022

High ranking government officials are being elected to positions that can make them appoint people of their choice and confidence in sensitive government positions or agencies.  They DO NOT appoint  people they dislike or they do not know.  Why?  It's obvious!  You keep people around you as friends if you know them well and been with them for a number of years.

In many socio-civic organizations they often have, if not most, a 'Ways and Means Committee'.  Usually the committee is tasked to have ways and means to uplift projects of an organization, if not for its existence.  It is in this manner that politicians are trying present themselves or their platforms.  Professionals might call it a marketing strategy in politics - I SIMPLY CALL IT DECEIVING THE PUBLIC!  Why?  Politicians, well most of them if not all, want fame and fortune.  Only José Alberto Mujica Cordanoof Montevideo, Uruguay is the true politician that helps his constituents and country.  He's living a simple life.

In the Philippines, only the Almighty would know where it would end up to.  Sad to say that the Catholic church is meddling with politics when there is supposed to be a separation between government and religion.  In several instances they were even the devil in 'sheep's clothing'.

In finality, governments and religious organizations have two things in common:

• Ask for money(tax) and donations
• Promise something (that may come true or not)

IN THIS COMING 2022 ELECTIONS - it makes me wonder - what if people do not vote - what if those who are less than 50% of the electorate?

The Covid-19 virus, mutation and vaccines

 

The Covid-19 virus, mutation and vaccines

The Covid-19 virus or Corona Virus does not show in human faeces, blood, and urine. Thus tests could not be done from them.  That means the virus is only at the nasal/sinus/throat cavities and lungs. Covid-19 vaccines are injected and could take 5 to 10 minutes to take effect.  Why?  Because the vaccine has to circulate around the body and there is no assurance it will adhere to the nasal cavities and lung cells. (Please note: Aside from the foregoing introduction above, the information below are sourced on items/articles available on the internet)

How long does an IM injection take to kick in?

"Intramuscular administration relies upon the high vascularity of muscle tissue to achieve a moderately rapid onset of action, usually within 5 to 10 minutes."

Which drug route has the fastest action?

"The intravenous route is considered to be the fastest route of drug administration. The injections and the infusions are administered by this route have 100% bioavailability."

Inhaler or intranasal spray as COVID-19 vaccine will be better

"Unlike traditional vaccines that require an injection, this vaccine is administered through a nasal spray similar to those commonly used to vaccinate against influenza. The vaccine used in the study only requires a single dose and it may be stored at normal refrigerator temperatures for up to at least three months. Because it is given intranasally, the vaccine may also be easier to administer, especially for those who have a fear of needles."

“This perpetual cycle goes on of constant replication. Each time a replication occurs, there is a small chance that code could change. When you have this go over a huge population over time, the odds start to favor that the virus will adjust. It’s evolution on a very, very rapid level.”

"So it’s not surprising that a virus like SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, would mutate. That’s something scientists and vaccine developers have expected since the beginning of the current epidemic."

"The question is how drastically and quickly is the virus changing."

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/07/210708135321.htm

"For SARS-CoV-2, scientists estimate that one mutation becomes established in the population every 11 days or so. But this process may not always happen at a steady pace."
