I can see that during autmn in Asia, Europe and North America we will have 2x (if not even more) bigger numbers of new infections than it was in spring and is now. People will have fungal infection in lungs "thanks" those masks as we breathe our carbon dioxide...

 

This can be huge problem about which WHO says nothing... And if someone will have problems with breathing it will be noted as COVID-19 instead some other disease or just common pneumonia/bronchitis

Just leaving this here...

Ok, they posted something about, it's fact, I didn't saw that, thanks :d 

 

But I still wonder why after wearing a mask longer than 10 minutes(!) I feel pain and something like "fire" in my throat, it happens every time. Additionaly pain dissapear after few days...

 

EDIT: And it isn't just my problem, my whole family have similar symptoms and several friends...

Oh, and is this the same World Health Organisation that were telling is masks were NOT needed six months ago?  :mumble:
 

Have they been able to conduct any research into the long-term effects of using masks daily - say, over the period of a year or so - in the intervening six months?  Because a lot of research has been done over many decades going back over 150 years into the long term effects of fine dust particles on the lungs.

Yet you say the World Health Organisation has, in the space of merely six months, been able to lay all these doubts to rest.  Truly they are miracle workers! :bowdown:

Could be something to do with the chemicals used to manufacture the masks you wear :dunno:

 

I’m not a medical professional, so don’t take my word for it. The best thing I can recommend is for you to do your research by reading academic peer-reviewed research.

Which cannot possibly exist yet, since nobody had ever been compelled to wear those cheap chinese masks all day before.  Guess we’ll find out in five years or so.

What kind of mask do you wear?

 

Definitely not CO2 I believe, since if it is CO2 everyone will just feel dizzy and then pass out

Currently I wear disposable non-surgical masks (I have symptoms after wearing this masks) I have also one cotton mask, but it's currently too hot to wear this

The UEFA might want to reconsider having the first international match with spectators in Budapest (Super Cup) because the new cases are rising rapidly in Hungary.

    • Some of the small nations have competed in the past but usually lost 30-0 to the Aussies
    • Officials persons (include Head) of RLF are still in ban. For example, Vaelbe has spoken even more terrible words but, however, CAS obliged to gave them AIN status. And it's the same situation here - FIL must to implement CAS's decision. But it's not clearly FIL's criterias for AIN status and that too strange
    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
