I prefer in-person instruction, since I actually enjoy learning and being around academia. However, I also enjoy not having Covid-19...so I’m very happy my college went this option. Same here though the labs are something being thought about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,172 Posted July 15, 2020 #3674 Share Posted July 15, 2020 That's a micro-step forward, at best. Three rounds of clinical testing are required, each with larger sample and each taking more time. And even if it still works after all that - it would still be far from over. 4+ billion doses would need to be produced (60% of population would need to receive it for it to become effective). Producing vaccines in such amounts is completely unheard off. Let's not forget about the whole political angle, either. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the lockdown is going to start soon here, had been good till now but with cases coming up a complete travel ban unless you are unwell travelling to clinic or hospital or bringing very essesntial food items.

While many are wearing between shoots, the makers here decided to use them throughout the episode. pdr4332 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdr4332 149 Posted July 15, 2020 #3678 Share Posted July 15, 2020 From today on, Hungary introduced the red-yellow-green list system already in place for several European countries. For the countries on the green list, no additional restrictions are in place (most EU countries and Switzerland) For the countries on the yellow list the entry of local and foreign citizens is permitted subject to quarantine or 2 negative tests from the last 5 days (from the EU Portugal, Sweden, Romania, Bulgaria + the UK are in this category) For the countries on the red list the entry of foreign citizens is not permitted, for the entry of local citizens the conditions of the previous category apply (in Europe most of the Western Balkan countries, Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe @heywoodu knows some more details? #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
