 Scooby have you ever considered that someone these anti war types ares Russian trolls? Please do not let your platform be used to spread propaganda. I bet we have had several Russian trolls on this blog for some time either promoting Trump, defending Russia, or spreading mayhem. You need figure out a way to distinguish Russians trolls from others

SCOTUS blocks OSHA vaccine mandate

 Supreme Court blocks Biden OSHA vaccine mandate, allows rule for health care workers

Court ruled that COVID-19 is not an occupational hazard but a 'universal risk'

https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/supreme-court-biden-vaccine-mandates-osha-health-care-workers

Does this mean anything for Los Alamos? Do the fired or workers or the ones forced unpaid leave get to come back now? Since the vaccination does little against Omicron why bother with it at this point? I kind of liked Mason but the fact that LANL appears to be the only lab to do this puts us in a bad light. Mason was born in Canada, where they have much more restrictive laws. I have no problem with Canada but I thought the one of the points of of having nukes was so the the US does not end up becoming like Canada.

Also I love how the news is going about how 250 medical personal signed a letter to get Joe Rogan a online blogger kicked off because he has guests on that do not not go along with the strict Covid party line. The media of course cannot do math because there must be close 1.5 to 2 million Doctors, PA, RNs and so on in the US. The fact that they cold only get 250 people to sign this is rather telling. In fact I dare say much of the approach and popular understating of Covid has lacked mathematical reasoning.

China is winning fusion race

 China is winning fusion race.


https://news.cgtn.com/news/2021-12-31/China-s-artificial-sun-smashes-1000-second-fusion-world-record-16rlFJZzHqM/index.html

China's 'artificial sun' set a new world record on Thursday by running for 1,056 seconds at high plasma temperature, the longest duration for an experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST) fusion energy reactor, Xinhua News Agency reported.

EAST already scored a previous record in May, running for 101 seconds at a temperature of 120 million degrees Celsius.


Omicron concerns

 So with Omicron raging, the labs should take some action before going full onsite work next week. Since this version of Covid breaks through the vaccine we should put some measures in to place which (1) a negative test before being allowed onsite. (2) 5-10 days before coming onsite if they where in contract or near anyone who showed systems. (3) Simply keep the labs at reduced capacity for a 10 days and than do mandatory testing. I know many of my colleagues are very concerned about about returning onsite after a year and a half of being at home.
