  • Which states have the highest rates of long COVID?

    Long COVID refers to the condition where symptoms that surface after recovering from COVID-19 linger for weeks, months, or even years.

    According to data from the Census Bureau, Oklahoma and Montana have the highest percentages of adults who tested positive for COVID-19 and have experienced symptoms lasting longer than three months. About 34% of adults in both states reported long COVID symptoms in November.

    Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama residents have the lowest rates of booster vaccines in the country, at 6.8%, 7.7% and 7.7%, respectively. At least a quarter of adults in these states reported having long COVID symptoms after being infected.

  • I think the training section of the film works really well but all of the stuff that was supposed to be in Vietnam falls flat. Famously a stickler for controlling every part of a production, Kubrick staged the Vietnam war on a bit of waste land by the Thames estuary at Beckton. He remained in control and produced Full Metal Jacket.

    Francis Ford Coppola chose to shoot Apocalypse Now in the Philippines and was subject to all kinds of madness, delays and destruction and produced the better film.

  • In roleplaying situations, authoritarians tend to seek dominance over others by being competitive and destructive instead of cooperative. In a study by Altemeyer, 68 authoritarians played a three-hour simulation of the Earth's future entitled the Global Change Game. Unlike a comparison game played by individuals with low RWA scores which resulted in world peace and widespread international cooperation, the simulation by authoritarians became highly militarized and eventually entered the stage of nuclear war. By the end of the high RWA game, the entire population of the earth was declared dead.
