@powder That shall be my very FINAL interaction with you @powder. FYI, IF you were to research Ivermectin you would realise that it IS primarily designed and made as an Anti-parasitic treatment mainly for animals such a horses, dogs, cat and such and VERY occasionally prescribed , in much smaller dosages btw, for Intestinal Parasites infestations in Humans BUT in EXTREME cases ONLY. Now, since getting through to you is akin to TRYING to carry on a sensible conversation with a Brass Door Knocker of @FrayedBear then you will find that within the next 12-14 hours I WILL have blocked you PERMANENTLY.

@MyTVC15 I was LEGALLY Lorrae's Sole Custody Parent since she 8 years old BUT her sole caring parent, so to speak, from when she less than a week old, her 'Mother," a term I use very loosely btw, wanted very little do with her from the word go almost. I gave Lorrae her first ever bath, her first ever bottle, changed her nappy the first time ever, took for her weekly visits to the Baby Clinic, Gee, I even went with her while he picked out her first ever pair of Bra ( with the help of a very nice Store Assistant doing in the Changing room btw with me wandering looking at my feet outside in the Ladies Wear Section. As Lorrae once told her Teacher at School, " He's my Dad, my Mum, my best Friend, my Big Brother and he's all I ever need around me."

@powder Please tell what it may/would take to actually get some sense into your thick, imo, skull? !) ONLY Certified and Licenced MEDICAL Practitioners CAN Prescribe Medications, THAT IS, Certified, Registered and Licenced DOCTORS of HUMAN Medicine, 2) a Nursing Practitioner, i.e. ( for your level of intellect i.e. means "that is" ) a NURSE working a General Practitioner's Surgery CAN RECOMMEND a course of Medication for a Patient BUT a Practicing G.P. MUST sign the Prescription form before it is handed to the patient. FYI, with the ORIGINAL COVID-19 virus, NOT the PRESENT Delta variant, Active cases WERE not PREVALENT in Children or young teens/adults under 21-23 years of age, Now, with variant Delta, the game, so speak, has changed DRASTICALLY and it is HITTING children HARD, FAST and with little or NO mercy.

@MyTVC15 My aim is to try to please...LOL. Your posting brought back fond memories of when my daughter, Lorrae, first NEEDED to start wearing Bra ( over-shoulder Boulder holders/ Tit Slings/Double-Barrelled Slingshots were just a few of her names for them). At a mere 12 years of age she did develop rather quickly and me being her Sole Custody Parent had the duty to organise the necessities for such events. After her second day with wearing Bra, she shouted out to me " Do I really need to wear these bloody things, it's like trying to shove 2 halves of one watermelon into 2 separate bags at the same time." I darned nearly peed my pants at hearing that one.

Btw, WE did NOT invite you to OUR country, you chose to come here or arrived with your parents. What's with the seeming, imo sick curiosity, regard my Pulmonary health/condition? Yes my lungs and air-ways have been damaged by Anhydrous Ammonia Gas that erupted from the INCOORECTLY fitted Safety Valve on a Railway Tanker back in 1989, Yes, I do smoke then, I gave up until 2000 when my 15 year old Daughter, Lorrae Kathleen, was diagnosed with Stage 3 Mature B Cell Lymphoma, the stress, etc, caused me to start smoking again because it IS not easy watching your ONLY living child go through Chemotherapy and being at her bed-side 24/4 whilst feeling almost absolutely helpless. Recently I quit smoking and have tobacco free now for well over 15 weeks and WAS enjoying life greatly, so much so that, instead of listening to the voice of my conscience and heeding it, I relented and Unblocked you, an error I thankfully can and will be rectifying very soon.

@FrayedBear WTF, are you back on your politician hobby-horse yet again and TRYING to say that I have joined your ranks as well? Have you EVER bothered to CONSIDER that your complaints are so numerous and endless that they are merely set aside amongst the other "Nuisance Mail"? The difference BETWEEN getting a response/reply, getting a result/something done is NOT by how many times you complain over and over until it becomes totally monotonous BUT make your complaint/problem HEARD, and adding small, but poignant reminders in the various Medias from time to time. Let me, PLEASE tell you about a BIG problem we had here in the 60's and through to the mid-late 70's. 1 PUBLIC High School, a population of 30,000 + People and Families. The High School WAS rated to a capacity, MAXIMUM CAPACITY of 600 Students TOTAL, BUT it had an AVERAGE of 1,130 + STUDENTS per ANNUM PLUS others visiting from the nearby Catholic High School to attend various other lessons, etc. Summer days, Temps around 33 - 42 degrees Celsius, NO Air Cooling/Air Conditioning at ALL, windows that would ONLY open to a gap of about 2 inches maximum, a set of TRANPORTABLE, wood and Corrugated Iron Classrooms amidst the other older Brick Buildings, very little room to even move in a classroom with between 30 and 38 students in it. Winter temps. around the 5-1 degrees Celsius and often even colder, NO HEATING, winds blowing through gaps in the floors of those TRANSPORTABLE Buildings (Frigging Scrub Humpies for Derros imo). Colds spread through classes like fire through a haystack. A certain Student and a group of Teachers BANDED together, they supplied the material and the Student started writing to Newspaper, Radio Stations, Television and Periodical Magazines using this very secret and hush-hush information. Organised Sit-ins, Protest Lockouts, and Protest Marches through the town but NEVER at regular times, NO as irregular and random as possible to disrupt everything possible, commerce and the lot. Even staging a Protest that kept the Indian-Pacific Passenger Train stuck at the Broken Hill Station for 3 hours. Guess what, No Student was EVER arrested, at Marches, the Police escorted them and as someone or other tired a bit, they GIVEN a ride back in a POLICE CAR to the rear of the March, cool fresh water, a quick check over from a St, Johns Medical Officer and they went back on the march. It took time, it took having the Federal Police, then known as the Commonwealth Police btw, coming and following this student around town for over 3 weeks UNTIL they parked their nice black normal looking (NOT) car across the street for hours on end and the student going across and inviting the occupants in for a cup of tea and some cake or biscuits BEFORE the Government listened, go off their arses and ...

In fact, one set of fossilised remains, part thereof of course, is believed to be, at present, a possibly and previous undescribed member of the Therapod Dinosaurs, possibly a miniature/infantile Allosaur.

Well, in actual FACT, No-one had all that much time to prepare for the COVID Pandemic at all. Yes, it IS a relative of sorts of the original S.A.R.S. viruses BUT it was either manufactured in a Lab or created its own variant by infecting a separate host with some genetic markers closely resembling those we human have within us all. IT may (??) help, note the question marks please since imo they refer to your dearth of Understanding and Comprehension of matters that MOST 8 year old children can understand with consummate ease btw, WERE you to try LEARNING about things such Viruses, Bacteria, etc, etc, BEFORE asking your somewhat, imo, inane questions and queries again.

Triphid replies on Sep 1, 2021:

@powder Boost Shots for Polio. Rubella, Smallpox, etc, which world are you coming from? Those vaccines give a life-long MEMORY to the Auto-immune system FYI, just as does the B.C.G. vaccination with Tuberculosis. For others such as Tetanus are regular up-date shot every 5 years is required to REACTIVATE the section of the Auto-immune system to remind it, so to speak, of HOW to make the specific anti-bodies. With COVID and Variant Delta COVID, we don't yet have enough information, etc, etc, to enable us to make a life-time last vaccination that WILL trigger the Auto-immune system to make the needed anti-body information that WILL remain viable for a life-time. Can you comprehend/understand that OR would you prefer that I try my darnedest to put in words of 3 or less syllables perhaps?

@FrayedBear It is quite a usual normality to radio-carbon date objects, etc, by having a leeway in the time slots. The Goody-Two-shoes ( Activists) love to TAKE the GREATEST date offered up and STATE as the Factual one, i.e. Aboriginals were here 50,000 years ago. However, since I have been an assistant of sorts on numerous Archaeological Digs in the remote Australian Outback, here, QLD., N.T. and N.W. W.A. as well ALL that has been uncovered and tested over and over again and again is Human Remains, and tools such as stone axe heads, grinding dishes ( stone of course) and grinding stones, etc, and those have been FIRMLY dated to between approx. 28,000 and 38,000 years ago, which also correlates with the start of the rise in sea level around that period, which eventually cut Australia off from New Guinea, Indonesia, Tasmania, etc, etc.

@FrayedBear 50,000 years ago there ONLY residents of the Brown and oft Dusty land would have been the Megafauna like the Ancestral Kangaroos, Wombats and the like. Our "Indigenous" residents did NOT arrive until approx. 30 - 38,000 ago and that is at very great stretch since NO actual human remains dating later than then have EVER been uncovered. As to being a Heinz 57'er, just being part Aboriginal, part Chinese, part German, part Pommie does NOT add up to my lineage list even remotely close to it. Btw, the terminology of "Real Aussie" means, literally one MUST have born and Raised upon or within these fair shores, i.e. I was conceived, gestated, born, raised and have LIVED in Australia ever since, ergo, a REAL Aussie.

IF, they wish to concentrate on just ONE single problem, then that is precisely what we do. But I can state and aver that 99.99999% of my Patients/Clients, past and present, have come to me with far more pressing matters on their minds than these OVER publicised, so-called "Lockdown Blues."

I worked for 12 years on the State Rail Authority of N.S.W. normally did 8 hour shifts, but often did anywhere between 12 and 16 hours + in Emergency situations like derailments, collisions between cars, etc, and trains, etc, etc. We'd finish working on the emergency, pack up, drive the truck back to our Depot, change clothes and drive back home. Prospecting Rigs workers out here, usually and normally in the middle of Nowhere btw, work 14 hour shifts, 12 days on and with 6 off, they DRIVE to and from the Rigs, often distances anywhere between 200 and 400 kilometres at a minimum and catch up their sleep AFTER they get to their homes. As to "no waves, just ripples," have you ever considered that this may well be due to the distance isolation of Australia compared to the rest of the world and YES, we have been fortunate thus far BUT how far can our luck be stretched? Btw, the STANDARD Air Circulation/Conditioning systems in 99% of these so-caled "Quarantine Hotels" is by NO means CONDUCIVE to maintaining Aseptic, Non-Transference Conditions required by International Quarantine Protocols. since, A) the air from each room and each floor is recirculated at a ratio of approx. 55%- 60% each hour with fresh air being added as required, the are NO filtration systems, such as Hepa-filters fitted to the vents in each room or the systems themselves, B) the have been cases, many of them in fact, of person under quarantine in these hotels inter-mingling with each other, a BIG NO-NO under International Quarantine Protocols, and last but by no means least, C) NO aseptic techniques are employed by those manning these Quarantine Hotels, etc, etc, just masks and gloves, technically speaking, they should be made to wear disposable Forensic style cover-all suits, full face masks, be double gloved and made to go through decontamination washes regularly both whilst on the job, before commencing a shift and after finishing the shift and BEFORE going home or wherever else they may choose to go.

Triphid replies on Aug 20, 2021:

I understand and still have quite a good knowledge of the Realm of Spirits, i.e. Whiskey, Vodka, Rum, Brandy, et, etc, but I've left those behind as I have done with tobacco as well.
