Eswatini has pretty much opened it's borders, you can get a rapid test at the border post. I heard through the grapevine that at certain border posts, and for a small fee, you can just get a clear result without actually having to take the test.

Ask for Sipho. Tell him Dumisani sent you.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

So it is going to be a law in the NL but nobody is going to pay any attention to it - a bit like not pissing in the street in Livingston or not having sex with yer mom in Saltcoats? :tea:
It is not going to be law. Fucking your mum in Saltcoats? :smooch:

Pfizer vaccine is RNA based

RNA is less stable than DNA and requires freezing.

German-Turkish couple running a biotech had the capital to employ 500 to make the mRNA. You still need a cell based process to make that RNA.

Yep... I've seen conjectures that even though RNA came first, more traditional stuff might win the race in the end, because wars are won on logistics.

Not to mention that the pfizer thing is coming at an unseemly early time, which kind of destroys my trust in it.

Woops, posted in the wrong thread. Should be in the Trump thread.

For the DRC, you used to have to have a Yellow Fever certificate. If you didn't have one you could get the jab right there and then, $10. Certificate without the jab, $50. Reminded me of the Netherlands.

No, it means it's all over in a year. They will not be able to start earlier than late December or January / February. Plus distributing the vaccine to the whole population takes very long. Plus, you need enough people to agree to be vaccinated. Good luck with that while QAnon- and Galaxian-type idiots are on the air everywhere.
