My father just informed me he has COVID (again).
He says he just took his first dose of Paxlovid; I'm trying to recall if that's safe.
I've found this so far, I don't know if it's accurate or soft-pedaling:

I take Prozac, and since (as fate would have it), that of all things has been shown to protect against COVID, I've offered that to him.

I recall something about ivermectin quietly being added to the list of approved treatments? If so, I can't find it (I am using Brave search-engine)? What about hydro-Q-whatsit?

my local apothecary carried it, but I had to get a script from a doc in FL, then a bunch of
arm twisting until my friend there unloosed the stuff. If it is now on the 'approved'
treatment schedule, you may get your doc to scribe it. Only did the treatment once a
year ago or so. Can't really say it helped, but didn't get worse. Good luck.

But I’d bet my last tooth they knew about it and didn’t object to it.
Israel wouldn’t risk the retaliation unless America had its back. Same with bombing Lebanon.

In the first few minutes, Doctorow discusses Russia Naval Day annual event. First time in his decades of attendance ships from foreign nations were invited to participate. The invitees are a tell: Chin, India...
Interesting video, interesting times.

@humphrey

Shitlibs are giddy about the jets.

The Russian KAB/FAB glide bomb tossing pilots(who some have opined are increasingly reluctant to engage) are now on notice ... beware because while you’re setting up to do shit, we, the Ukrainian F-16s, will be setting up on you. Soon come.

We? Who’s WE Kemosobee? Are you and your friends gonna be in the backseat whilst the pilot is dodging Russian weapons?

The poor saps are being fed so much propaganda they actually think they, Ukraine is on the verge of winning.

@humphrey

Daniel Ellsberg in this book Doomsday Machine pointed out that every setback the US sustained in the Vietnam war was accompanied by some additional commitment (can you say surge?) or introduction of new technology, or new weapons, that would ostensibly turn the tide in the war.

The reality is that as soon as the aircraft and their crews are committed to their mission assignments, they will be forced to choose profiles that optimally facilitate their mission or alternatively their survivability in a contested airspace. I think they will be rationed out rather than employed in combinations to maximize their longevity against Russian defenses because the Ukrainians are already complaining they don't have enough. Once again we see that the lack of a surge capability in providing weapon systems and crew will limit their impact. Therefore I expect highly provocative asymmetric tactics from the weaker power. This will risk escalating the conflict as Ukrainians deliberately undertake the most provocative strikes possible with their new weapon systems.

Ukraine war briefing: First F-16 fighter jets arrive – officials

Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands and Norway – all Nato members – have committed to providing Ukraine with more than 60 of the planes. The Russian jet fighter fleet is still estimated to be about 10 times larger, but has been kept at bay to some extent by Ukraine’s anti-aircraft defences.

Ukraine needs at least 130 F-16s to neutralise Russian air power, Ukrainian officials say. Much depends on having enough pilots, who are being trained by a coalition of countries including the US which has also agreed to arm Ukraine’s jets with advanced missiles and bombs.

Volodymyr Zelenskiy has said Russian forces have made gains in eastern Ukraine because Kyiv’s allies are restricting its use of western-supplied weapons and its forces are still awaiting arms deliveries from abroad. Russia consolidated gains in eastern Ukraine in July, taking control of almost 200 sq km (77 sq miles), according to analysis by Agence France-Presse using data from the US-based Institute for the Study of War (ISW). Zelenskiy said Kyiv was “working very hard” to get permission to strike targets deep inside Russian territory with western-supplied weapons. “Unfortunately, our partners are still afraid of this.”

"neutralize Russian air power" Good luck with that.

@humphrey

again about taking action against Israel and the United States, but their hands are tied as long as America has vetoe power.

Besides how many UN rulings has Israel just ignored?

But how many countries have cut total ties with Israel? Turkey's boss keeps saying that he will get tuff on Israel and yet he’s still supplying them with gas and oil…in other words the dawgs bark, but the caravan rolls on. And what happens to the relief ships from Russia and Turkey that were promised 8 months ago? Stills being loaded….?

There is more that the world can do to stop Israel so why isn’t it doing it? Words are meaningless without action.

A draft UN Security Council press release, proposed by Russia, condemning Israel for Hania's murder was blocked by Britain, France and the US.

Russia and China condemned Hania's murder at an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council

In addition, the Permanent Representative of Algeria accused Israel of committing a terrorist act that violates international law and Iran's sovereignty.

UN Secretary-General Guterres called the crime a dangerous escalation that is hampering efforts to end hostilities in the Middle East.

The rest of Bertrand's tweet:

This is the US unilaterally extending its legal and regulatory power to the entire world, without the consent of other nations and their citizens, for the purpose of shutting down "alternate financial systems" that operate outside of US control or oversight and ultimately for impoverishing the population of countries who don't agree to vassalize themselves.

In one word, totalitarianism:
- suppress alternatives to their rule
- make decisions without regard for consent
- seek to punish dissenters
- trying to exert total control over the lives of entire peoples (specifically making them miserable if they live in a dissenting country)
- global enforcement of a unique ideology, that of "America first"...
