The important thing is my being prepared and refraining from assuming somebody is short a few deck cards when they may be just jerking my chain.

Yes. Plus one. Did you think I was on a soapbox? Plus Molina’s research similarly tripped into the same observation more by accident than design, and as I indicated it’s Eff around 50% was (and is) apparently questioned by external peers. The product innocuousness level factor concomitant with preliminary and refutable effectiveness findings does not substitute for the rigour of currently running focused trials. One study (Oregon unis?) observed a lower GC incidence rate comparing Outer Membrane Vesicle MBV (the format driver of contemporary research) to non-OMV MBV, thousands in each category subgroup of MBV recipients. Observational but not a VaxxPoz vs VaxxNeg binary scenario that, as you astutely point out, introduces behavioural confounder effects. Unfortunately, it’s taking several years to execute the research yet one must not succumb to impatience by recklessly accepting prematurity.

Two opposing concepts cannot easily be both true. The second part is true because there exists no extant research that substantiates the claim of the first part, likely simply an extraneous comment on the general merits of cleanliness’ adjacency to godliness.

Haha … you locals swoop in, pluck the choicest, and leave us mere hapless ‘tourons’ with the scraps. Not that I have any reason to whine about my time. 😉

UK to proceed with MeningicoccalB vaccine for gonorrhoea (aka gonococcal, gonorrhea for search term optimization) based on the findings to date that have propelled the further ongoing research. https://www.statnews.com/2023/11/10/u-k-recommendation-could-lead-to-worlds-first-use-of-meningitis-vaccine-to-curb-gonorrhea/ Meanwhile, I read a few months ago that Molina’s promising-looking findings on the MeningicoccalB vaxx component of his Doxycycline prophylaxis research had been challenged, and the methodology and vaccination results were to undergo audit. Haven’t seen any updates. It may be just a question of downgrading the efficacy metric. Lower vaxx efficacy for a disease tends to be more acceptable where infection recidivism is common. In many jurisdictions including Canada and USA, Bexsero (GSK Pharma) is authorized up to age 25 for meningitis prevention. Administering off-label for gonorrhea prevention efforts should be considered case-by-case and I expect many STI clinics and savvy HCPs will get on board. Me, I can pass for minimally one year younger and I’m not sure if my occasional use of Depends briefs puts me in the running for childhood Bexsero uptake. My condom use is also far from occasional.

I just had t’ one from there. Could we now be minimal degrees of separation DNA-bros by bridging over the river Thai proxy? Odds 10:1?

For me and life’s loves it’s a they, the plural they not to be confused with the non-binary they, and some of those rides reverse cowboy. Want the ‘jizz’ from that ‘rizz’.

The main distinction seems to be Visitor versus Temporary, with over a dozen subcategories across the two. In this case, the remote work seems feasible within several categories because not associated with a Brazilian institution. A central question would be length of stay per entry. The e-visa is Visitor category and mandatory but seems might be more limited in stay duration allowances and total annualized days allowed. Thus, choice of type may be worth exploring by the candidate depending on anticipated preferences that may emerge, covering a specific set of circumstances and bypassing the need to later transition between visa formats.

Since the contingency of an eventual segue from a 1-month visit to longer durations is now included in the mix (what do I know? and how can I know your entry privileges in the absence of context?), not remote, I recommend deep-diving into the implications and relative merits of acquiring a consular visa versus the recently reinstated e-visa requirement. It may be worth pursuing a consular visa up front. If a foreign national that is subject to visa necessity and is granted the e-visa 5 or 10 years (these are linked irreversibly to passport), and if a consular visa is possibly later preferable in terms of privileges conferred (eg, visit durations etc), you may get more assiduously grilled if desiring to later supplant the e-visa with said consular visa. Throwing good money after bad may raise eyebrows. AFAIK, Americans in either visa category acquire 10 years, Australians and Canadians 5 years. Compare the number of annual days allowed, the start and endpoint number of days allowed per entry, and extension contingencies that may involve local federal police authorizations, etc. That said, there are likely far better candidates than me to weigh in on this aspect, based on their own experience. Otherwise, more sunblock?

OP indicates a month, one month (!), a duration matched, exceeded, and plunged into by most posters on this board that travel to Brazil irrespective of other obligations when there. Therefore, in what way does remote employment status uniquely enter into how to plan the playbook, other than structuring time and activity in a particular way and protecting company gear from out-calls? Or just do this:

Maybe there are braille formats of the aforementioned brochures.

The ones I follow have an “X” symbol and the content sure reflects that rating grade. I especially like the ones where my historical in-person choreography with them generally replicates that of the majority of their clip scenes. Although much more external prophylaxis.

Maps be keeping nosy neighbours running in circles and in the dark. LOL.

Meanwhile the GSK investigational gonorrhoea vaccine study is recruiting in Brazil, among several other global locations.

The biggest and alarming incidence escalation is in congenital syphilis, therefore the increase is considerably disproportionate among women of childbearing age. That skew alone reveals little in terms of MSM rate trends and their reproductive crossover. In terms of gonococcal infection prophylaxis research the Meningococcal Group B vaccine (Bexsero) placebo-control trial underway, with results still a few years off, now has recruitment in 2 Bangkok locations.

No. Counterintuitively, it’s where #88 would be situated. Eleven 8-inchers yields 88, or eight 11-inchers what have you … don’t ask. Street probably still runs north to the 2-way Joana Angelica, so if the driver missed the cue and did not take you that way, you can hop out at the corner of Joana Angelica and walk a few steps south.

For what it’s worth to the nickel-and-dime-&-garment-choreography oriented brigade, Dre (above) is a sweet, intelligent, articulate Ghanaian, age late 20s, with whom I connected thru a different channel and met at my Silom area hotel I had reserved exclusively for play dates for a month as separate from my self-cater lodgings elsewhere. Without the Apollo handle with the same name he used with me in person, following a more typical but vague online yet not explicitly “MB” pseudonym, I would unlikely have made the connection with this thread’s recent post. I have more pics as well as (ahem) unreleasable contact info. Just a few days ago erased our text chat. I had pretty much ruled out spa outings ahead of time following months-long appraisal of various photo lineup spreads etc. I did modestly tip the Arena floor captain plunked on his chair in the outdoor mall perimeter outside the venue’s entrance, for him to scroll thru the 3 dozen current roster fellows to make sure FOMO would not follow my immediately snubbing the place. There were lots more options more appealing to me, including predominantly SEA indigenous, and I preferred to bypass deeper in-person hunt strategies among the vast array of spas in order to conserve time for more conventional travel activities and a local trainer not at all hard on the eyes. In other words, any frenetic unipolar hypomanic tendencies that emerged betwixt and between jet lag-induced power naps were geared to asexual on-and-off the beaten track sights and food-seeking. In retrospect, I cannot imagine having struck a more optimal balance that worked for me. BTW, I ❤️ shameless Macaroni’s not too cheesy blog articles, so Mac I take the liberty of sticking a feather in your cap.

Shillelagh one would guess one numb Irish fella’s game murder weapon as: diminutive Colonel Trout sourced verbal diarrhea blasting from his bowel ? In the Irish country manor loo but really everywhere when it come down to it? Which make his posts aiming for last word, erm, a tiresome trial ?

Rude. Clueless. Disingenuous. I did get it right.

What answer? I copied a report made to admin in order that members be aware of the misanthropic antics of others. There was no query? I asked no question other than a line of inquiry directed at the moderators. Let’s just speedily enter these here his Éire lordship’s Belfast posts in the Blarney Baloney pageant inn’t.

How exactly is that assertion manifested ? Harmless yet dried out water bombs of comments such as yours do nothing worth raising one‘s head from the Inisherin pint for.

My expectations, to be clear, as written threats have been made here regarding sharing my government issued identity, or any version of my actual identity, for that matter, are that I forbid it. This is on the record here, but naturally limited in direct targeted messaging by the degree to which I am privy to any information regarding most members other than Board pseudonyms. I do not expect that my identity would be appropriated by another, ie, somebody would masquerade as me, but obviously that is similarly prohibited. What mystifies me is how a member would extort another member with assertions of possession of said identity and threats of sharing my government identity details without my consent, and do so with impunity on our board. I have not provided this information to any other board member at any time, knowingly or volitionally. I do not consent to any dissemination of such information. At this juncture, what I will do is circle back to my USA academic contacts to apprise them of further developments regarding a previous unfortunate exposure to an individual that may be a person of interest regarding masquerading as a particular class of professional. Such an impersonation, if substantiated, would not go over very well within medical school settings up here where I have faculty status. I am probably as correct in my assumptions as previously but will be open to being disabused of mistaken suppositions. The possible misappropriation of my government identity puts a new slant on it. As far as I gather there has been no reversal of the hostage aspect of my government ID.

This, the doing lines quip I see in the quote, is classic decompensation meets troll hour meets cluelessness. DM if you like. You seem to be one of the brighter lights on the tree. The post he dropped was big on noise, minuscule on signal in the noise/signal ratio. Having fun yet?
