4 of my anti vaccine friends are now dead from Covid 19. None of my fully vaccinated friends died from Covid 19 - most are over 70. My anti vaccine friends, in the beginning would not allow me near them because I was vaccinated. They said I was shedding the virus (which I was not), they also told me I was going to die within 3 months, then when I didn't it became a year, when I didn't it became 3 years - and I am still healthy & happy. When we took a flight to Uluru recently my anti vaccine friend wore a mask on the flight she was so frightened. Me? Fully vaccinated - not a worry in the world. Billions of people have been fully vaccinated and don't bother to keep reminding anyone - only the anti vaccine movement is going on and on and on about it.
Thank you. As a SCUBA diver of 33 years I've watched the beauty of the equatorial reef systems diminish. Half of them have gone in the last 30 years. I've witnessed that.
When in El Nido, Palawan Islands, PPN it was disheartening to observe the '57 best dive sites in the world' according to Jaques Cousteau - gone. The giant coral he spoke of and filmed were not there in 2005.
I asked the dive guides to take me to the BIG coral. He replied - "the ocean temperature has risen 2 deg. killing the coral. Then we had a typhoon with strong ocean currents and that broke it up."
Not one of my Sydney high society friends SCUBA dived. So when I bought this topic up on my return they were totally disinterested.
When in Sri Lanka I saw the coral reef system had been removed by the locals for construction use. That area was where the most people died from the Boxing Day tsunami. Where the reefs were in tact nobody died.
I stayed in a hotel that was protected by the reef.
That is what people don't get. Everything is connected. Some of nature protects us. As we destroy nature we will become more exposed.
THANKS MARGI. Sorry to hear about your dead antivax friends. Try using a different writing style next time.
