Two weeks ago I returned to the U.S. from Austria wearing the typical thin, familiar light blue mask we buy and see in the markets and around town in the U.S. When I checked in for my return flight to the U.S., I was told that the thin blue mask I was wearing is not acceptable for passengers on Austrian Airlines. I was then told that I had to buy an "N-95" mask that is sold at stores just past security in Vienna. The masks are quite different and fit tighter than the thin ones we are used to here. After the long flight, wearing the tight fitting mask, I noticed my ears were a bit tender from the forceful stretch of the band that holds the tight fitting mask. I fully understand their rules. I wonder why we in the U.S. are allowed the flimsy thin blue masks seen in most places.

Even though this thread includes a title of Austria, the thread really is about controversy over coronavirus vaccinations. Below is a link to Brazil President Bolsonaro's ridiculous stance on coronavirus vaccinations. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/bolsonaro-covid-vaccine-brazil_n_619c3cf9e4b0ae9a42a4fafd Despite Bolsonaro's foolish encouraging people not to take the vaccine, Brazilians are ignoring him and are vaccinated at a very high percentage rate, more than 70% thus far and the vaccinations continue.

How do you know that your body "can produce antibodies for many many years"? There is so much research on the subject that changes by the day and by the location of where the study is conducted. Antibodies weaken over time as is agreed by most medical scientists. For you to say that your body "can produce antibodies for many many years" is not supported by anything authoritative I have ever read. Some irresponsible news casters and other loonies say the strangest things about the virus and what it can and can not do. Even Bolsonaro, the president of Brazil, recently said that those who take the vaccine will eventually turn into a crocodile. Quite simply, almost every day, something new is learned about the awful virus. If vaccines have been shown to reduce the number of deaths and the severity of the illness if the virus is acquired, I am at a loss to understand why people refuse to accept the vaccine. That is, of course, unless they believe Bolsonaro, of Brazil.

And which century will that be in the United States?

You remind me of my cousin. He is a total anti-vaccine person. As a result of his opinion about coronavirus vaccines, he cannot join us on trips to places that insist on seeing a vaccination card. As a result, we travel but leave him alone at home. How sad it is that he is misguided into thinking that the vaccine will harm him. His being left out of joining his family is more harmful to him than his imagined fear of the vaccine.

Based on the below cited article from NPR, your statements are not true and are misguided. The virus is relatively new. Doctors are learning new things every day about the virus. One thing for sure is that immunity (either from natural infection or vaccination) weakens over time. That is why there is a current need for a "booster" vaccination. https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2021/08/20/1029628471/highly-vaccinated-israel-is-seeing-a-dramatic-surge-in-new-covid-cases-heres-why

Austria is very serious about controlling the virus. Throughout Vienna there are many kiosks that allow anyone, including foreigners, to get a free covid test. The test can be either an antigen or PCR. Anyone who plans to travel to the U.S. can go to one of the many kiosks and get a rapid test and have the results within fifteen or twenty minutes. The results are sent to your cell phone, email, or handed to you if you wait at the window of the kiosk. I was in Vienna earlier this month and I was impressed how organized the covid testing was set up for anyone who wants or wanted a test.

That is true for most of the escorts that have been around a while and who treat their clients fairly. It is the newer guys, many with lousy reviews on rentmen, who think they can command higher prices equal to the rates of escorts that have been around a while and have made a name for themselves with clients. The above is a major reason for the supposed shortage of clients. Or, clients unwilling to pay inflated rates for almost every provider advertising.

Are you sure it is the same jacobtop? I have known him several years and I have never known him not to keep his word. If it is the same person, something bad happened or he lost his telephone and could not communicate with you. He would not simply "ghost" a person; it is not his style.

Think of how many clients you would save from a similar horror if they were to hire that awful person.

Health issues is a broad term. Even supposedly healthy people, who are overweight, have health issues. Look around, a huge portion of America has overweight people.

In all fairness, the article you quote and sited has a disclaimer near the top stating: This article is a preprint and has not been peer-reviewed [what does this mean?]. It reports new medical research that has yet to be evaluated and so should not be used to guide clinical practice. Therefore, like many studies involving the virus, this study could also be misleading.

Where are you finding these rates? Rentmen advertisers ask for a lot more than that when you contact them. This has happened with me and several friends who find the increased rates (some rates doubled) and insistence on a deposit (in advance) ridiculous. No wonder there is a shortage of clients. We are tired of getting ripped off.

I don't think that clients are getting scarce. Clients still exist. Clients are being more picky when choosing a provider. I think that many clients are disgusted with the rates jump of 50 % or more. Worse than that, too many providers insist on being paid in advance or want deposits. Also, I have noticed that more providers use drugs, which is a turn off to me and likely to other clients. Hence, a shortage of clients or an increase in clients more selective. Things change.

Lyft does not operate in London. It operated mainly in the U.S Edit: Lyft operates in the United States and Canada. The company sets specific requirements on the vehicles used by drivers and has several different categories or levels of service. The Lyft app for smartphones notifies passengers of the driver's arrival and gives them an estimated cost in advance.

Terrible situation. Would you be willing to say which city this person is located? I certainly would not want to have an experience like you had.

It is not only in the United States where people are demonstrating against the vaccine. Take a look at this article that discusses what is happening in Austria as a result of the vaccine requirement. https://www.politico.eu/article/vienna-police-reign-in-as-anti-vaxxers-merge-with-far-right-extremists-in-large-coronavirus-restrictions-protests-austria/ There are misguided people all over the world, not just in the U.S. and Austria.

Most of the posts above are concerned with ejaculations and orgasms following prostate cancer diagnosis and treatments. I had a cousin who died from prostate cancer that metastasized to other parts of his body. Within a year of his being diagnosed, the cancer found its way to his bones and other organs. He died a hideously miserable and painful death. When he was first diagnosed, he had been advised by his urologists to take radiation and hormonal therapy to control the prostate cancer. He was told a removal of his prostate was not necessary. Sorry to be negative but the disease of prostate cancer is not just about ejaculations and orgasms. My cousin's doctors kept him on heavy pain killers during the final two weeks of his life. Prostate cancer can be a terrible thing to experience. Ejaculations and orgasms are of little concern when that disease is "aggressive" as was the case of my cousin.

If one avoids Copacabana, the most popular sauna (Pointe 202) will be missed. There was a time when sauna 117 was the most popular but for the past few years, the Copacabana sauna, Pointe 202 is the most popular. You might want to check on the current popularity status of Pointe 202 when you are closer to your trip date. Personally, I do not care for Pointe 202 but that is where the garotos go more so than formerly 117.

You can still travel with a friend provided the friend is not a "hanger on" type personality. I often travel with a friend but when we reach our destinations, we each go our own way occasionally meeting for lunch or for minor matters.

Happens a lot lately. I reported about this above. Uber will soon be history if it keeps up the "surge" pricing and frequent cancelations and long waits.

Uber service has deteriorated recently. I have used Uber for several years and for more than one hundred trips. With the layoff of drivers due to fewer customers (caused by the virus) together with higher fee sharing costs by Uber, plus longer wait times for an Uber to arrive, it is not a bad idea to consider a regular taxi. For example, ten days ago I used Uber to get to the airport from my house, which usually is less that twenty dollars with Uber. However, when I returned to my home city and took the exact same reverse route to my house using Uber, the fee was more than sixty dollars, or more than three times the fare even though the traffic was not busy and the airport was not overly crowded. The Uber people are finally getting smart. It does not take a genius to realize that a person arriving at an airport after a flight is willing to pay a higher fare to get home or where they need to go versus a person who is still at home and has the option of calling Uber, Lyft or a taxi. No doubt about it, the Uber drivers have to make money as does Uber, the company. In my latest instance, Uber devised a plan to make the most money from trapped customers at airports who have no choice but to pay a higher fee to get home. Money makes the world go around.

One of his most unusual movies was when he played a young gay guy in love with another fellow student. The two got involved with killing a neighbor for thrill purposes. The name of the film is "Compulsion" Here is a link to the full length movie that can be streamed, for free, to a television or other viewing device, in case anyone is interested:
