In answer to the O P question, it appears definitely NO.

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/30/cdc-stu ... nated.htmlCDC study shows 74% of people infected in Massachusetts Covid outbreak were fully vaccinated
Apparently CDC was surprised by this result and hence they are now recommending more masking. I suppose masking may be useful but with a variant that is reportedly 1000 times more infectious than the original one doubts that masks are now 1000 times more effective. It is still bemusing why the CDC resolutely refuses to properly test such treatments as Ivermectin which appears to have some benefits based on real World usage. Surely at this point any prophylactic that would help even mildly should be investigated.
.
the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.

I haven't read anything about Ivermectin yet, but compared with drinking bleach or shoving a UV light up your ass, it might be worth a try.

I can attest to the latter, well LED any way, not being particularly desirable.

I can agree with that, having experienced it recently, but I'd say it would be preferable to a dose of Covid.

Re: Is there anything, that the pathetic British will not put up with?
Not just the CDC, the UK as well. John Campbell has been pressing hard for the UK to look at Ivermectin use but has met a brick wall. He wonders if it is because it is so cheap that drug companies are 'preventing' its use for profit reasons. Certainly many trials in many countries prove its effectiveness in reducing the adverse effects of many viral infections, including COVID.boing wrote:It is still bemusing why the CDC resolutely refuses to properly test such treatments as Ivermectin
A reply I had about it, via my MP, was:
"Ivermectin is a safe, broad spectrum antiparasitic drug which is in wide use globally to treat parasitic infections. Currently, ivermectin for oral use is not a licensed human medicine in the United Kingdom.
With known antiviral properties, ivermectin has been shown to reduce SARS-CoV-2 replication in laboratory studies. Even though ivermectin is used routinely in some countries to treat COVID-19, there is little evidence from large-scale trials to demonstrate that it can speed up recovery from the illness or reduce hospital admission.
I understand that the Department for Health and Social Care is closely monitoring the evidence on the use of ivermectin as a treatment for COVID-19. A recent collection of small studies has shown some positive indications, however, further high quality, larger-scale studies are still needed to confirm the efficacy of this treatment. I am told that the Therapeutics Taskforce will keep the position on ivermectin under review as more data becomes available.
It is important that potential treatments for COVID-19 are properly studied in order to ensure their safety and efficacy. I will be following developments closely."
So, basically, kick it down the road? I'm not convinced he is 'following closely'............. I cannot see the argument against it. It works with so many illnesses. Is it just too cheap for the likes of Pfizer and J&J and others?

May I refer the honourable gentleman to my post #3355 across in the C19 thread where you can fill your boots on the Invermectin and HCQ early treatment protocols which were eventually stopped by officialdom.
Recently the MSM has started taking an interest in these outpatient treatments so the initial “snake oil” promoted by this scaredemic seems to be under scrutiny as the wheels come off the guvvments’ wagons.

Re: Is there anything, that the pathetic British will not put up with?
I don't know, maybe he has told his office manager to request the information. The information will then come into his office, followed regularly and closely by the MP.I'm not convinced he is 'following closely'........
If someone then asks a question he can ask his OM and they will then kick it up to the minister whose staff will provide yet another anodyne response which the minister will sign.
Jon done.
Re: Is there anything, that the pathetic British will not put up with?
Yes, I've had a few of those from this and the previous 'occupant' of the constituency chair. This one tells of Ministry 'Feed him tittle-tattle and hope he gets bored and goes away'. He will not.yet another anodyne response
A previous 'pass the ball' was on speeding traffic and the 'Ministry' replied via MP referring me to the Police Commissioner (who had already replied that the matter of enforcement of the law by the police "did not come under her remit" - yes, actually!)

I hope she didn't get reelected.
Re: Is there anything, that the pathetic British will not put up with?
She did. She is 'wonderful'. Typical Tory. Great at elections, crap at running things between elections.

On another theme, I was working at Silverstone on Friday. It was a classic car show, well attended even for a Friday, but there was a lot of rain. Only in Britain would people walk around wearing shorts, when it's not that warm anyway and carrying an opened umbrella. I suppose they couldn't resist the opportunity to show off their leg tattoos!

That classic definition of a Wild-eyed hairy-faced fundamentalist, (WEHFF) one Anjem Choudhry, has sadly recently been no-platformed on at least 2 social media platforms for some obscure reason.
For those who may have forgotten him, here is a short revision on his history;
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... ifted.html
I must admit I cannot understand why the UK taxpayer is keeping this creature in the style to which he has become accustomed since release from the legal confinement.
Are there any constructive suggestions as to how YOU would deal with the problem, if by magic you were HMG Home Secretary?
Extra bales of quality A4 paper will be distributed on which you may draft appropriate and original solutions.

I feel that in this case, packs of wild dogs have it right when they eliminate antisocial or dangerous (to their society) dogs from their midst.
And Mario Puzo, in "The Godfather" has his protagonist make a rather good speech regarding his complete lack of obligation to keeping alive those members of society he considers worthless.

Apparently BoJo and Carrie have spawned another brat, due to appear near Christmas this year, assuming he doesn't cancel it (Xmas) again.
https://www.ukcolumn.org/community/foru ... n-control/
Like father, like son? Maybe not, but they're hardly living up to Carrie's much praised green fanaticism which will have us all shivering in 2030 nor grandpa Stanley's ambition for the World's and the UK's population in particular.
Better not let Greta near either of these 2 studs as it would wreck her environmental reputation if she was unlucky enough to sit on a chair they'd recently vacated.

Re: Is there anything, that the pathetic British will not put up with?
Overheard this end of a telephone conversation, from a Branch Covidian member to father-to-be BoJo, whilst at the hunting rifle range this morning;
---"”It wasn’t SARS-CoV-2 that brought the UK to it’s knees, it was an entirely malign conjunction of corrupt behavioural psychologists, cowardly and scientifically illiterate politicians and an equally cowardly and scientifically illiterate public.
A basic principle of science is that scientists making claims publish ALL the evidence and assumptions underlying those claims for scrutiny. Not once has SAGE done this.
Another basic principle is that you operate in an ethically sound way. Since when has terrifying the public with deliberate misinformation been ethically acceptable?
Meanwhile politicians have blundered on guided by nothing more than poll results. Not one single restrictive measure enacted by you, Johnson, has been tested by a comprehensive cost/benefit analysis. Not one. You, Johnson, literally do not know whether your actions have caused more harm than good.
And the ‘great’ British public? They have rolled over and accepted every removal of their freedoms. Even worse, they have happily sacrificed cancer patients and their own children’s education to be ‘protected’ from a pathogen that is no threat whatsoever to the overwhelming majority.
Well done Boris.
You have constructed this debacle and presided over the damage.
Now just go. You have killed enough people already.”---
