Hey guys!

Just thought I'd drop in to share the news on this lovely Saturday! We're screwed! :mrgreen:

Delta infections among vaccinated likely contagious; Lambda variant shows vaccine resistance in lab

https://www.reuters.com/business/health ... 021-08-02/
Keep in mind that none of these studies have been peer reviewed yet. There were published on pre-print servers. The Lambda stuff is lab study, not a field study. It is also a single study. That being said, all are supportive of the notion that masks and social distancing should be maintained as a precautionary matter.

Let's hope I just jumped the gun.

And before you whine about being told to “F” off. What is worse? Being called dishonest? Or, being told to “F” off?
Allowing LDS posters on an unregulated message board is like allowing them on a fishing boat with a case of beer. They are going to become unruly and unpleasant.

So did you exclude them or did you copy and paste from some other source?
They are from the same linked article. What is your point and what changed by not quoting them?
Yes but your post quoted the abstract minus the first two sentences. Did you not include them in your post or where you copying it from some other source that excluded the first two sentences?

Masks do not work.
Do you mean they can not stop any of the virus laden particles coming in or going out of someone wearing a mask?

Also keep in mind that booster shots that directly target some of the variants are in the works.

They can, but Cultellus is incapable of responding truthfully to the question.
