Nearly two-thirds of Antarctica station researchers get COVID despite being fully vaccinated, passing multiple tests, quarantining, and living miles from civilization
Your typical Karen or Kyle has had a couple of vaccination shots, a booster (or two), wouldn’t dream of going out in public without a mask (or two), maintains social distancing, and gets tested — religiously, one might say — before attending any events. They’ll make sure you’re aware of all their efforts, too, and shame those who don’t toe their bright red line.
They are both conscientious and annoying as all hell.
Now imagine doing all that… in Antarctica.
And then getting sick anyway.
Nearly two-thirds of the staff based at the Princess Elisabeth Polar Station in Antarctica have been infected with COVID-19 despite having strict health protocols in place to try to stop the spread of the respiratory disease.
Since Dec. 14, at least 16 of the 25 workers at the Princess Elisabeth Polar Station have caught the coronavirus. The first case was a researcher who had arrived at the base seven days earlier.
The spread of COVID-19 was surprising for many since all of the researchers were fully vaccinated. The scientists also had to take several PCR tests and quarantine before traveling to the polar station.
vaccines don’t work, they eventually weaken your immune system
VACCINES WITHOUT A DOUBT IS THE COVID VIRUS!!!!!!
