Never had Covid, doing my level best to avoid it.

Take care

Thanks Beisha

I've never had it till now either!

I think it's different for everyone who gets it

Our good friend @Dazmac66 is a case in point (hope you're on the comback trail there buddy )

My symptoms were like the flu but different

Headaches, joint pain, huge fogginess in the head, confusion, massive fatigue (wanted to sleep but couldn't which was weird) sore throat (not massive) coughing (dry), runny nose (not so much blocked), chills for me (not so much fever)

On top of that my wife and kids had been crook for a number of weeks

I was last man standing but they had all tested negative to that point

To be honest I really didn't think I had Covid

Currently I care for my mum who has dementia and my mentally ill sister who still reside in the family home from my childhood in the 60's

I quit work after dad passed away early 2021 as mum and my sister at that point needed help and fortunately I was in a position to provide it

I only got the PCR test because I wanted to make sure I didn't go to the family home with covid.....there is a very strong chance (given her age and health) that if mum gets the flu let alone Covid it would be terrible

Worth checking out the symptoms and being aware

Don't hesitate to get a PCR or a RAT to confirm or eliminate your Covid status

Most of all make sure you're okay and all your loved ones

OMG dude, your description of your symptoms sounds bad enuff, cant imagine what @Dazmac66 went thru having to be hospitalised, i realise that symptoms vary from person to person, some say its just like a flu and done and dusted in 3 days, others say the contrary, so thats the reason why i asked.

Really sad to hear about your dad passing , your Mum with dementia and your sister with mental health, faaaaark, thats FULL ON!!

Your not alone dude, my father in law has dementia and my mother in law at age 85 is still cleaning his excrement, cooking , cleaning a full house , dreadful disease, i gotta whole heap of other family drama as well, but i wont elaborate, could write a MILLS & BOON book series about my families past and present !!

RAT tests are pretty useless if i understand properly, PCR is the way to go from the getko to get a accurate appraisal IMO.

We have alot in common , adversity is my middle name, hang in there and if you need to blow off some steam and have a vent, just PM me, happy to chat.

Take care.

So the weekly meeting wasn't insightful even though AVZ and Zijin were both there?

 

[Scoota30]

Seems like the public awareness around all of the illegal transactions is gaining traction and certain people are asking the right questions and having the luxury of AVZ's side of the story to be spoken about aswell, one would think that there would be similar heat brewing in the government departments.

Also, not sure if it has also been posted but the DRC mining week held in Lubumbashi is June 1st - 3rd, aligning nicely with the extension to voluntary suspension? What's another week or 6 of waiting

Too much hot fluff coming out of Felix and drc gov with their big plans for mining and battery production in drc and they can't even sort out a mining license.

No faith in them tbh. By the time he finishes talking he will be voted out.

 

[Mr Inappropriate]

Oh I'm a shit stirrer. Didn't get a reply from the jinballs so sent a follow up

Respect for the shit-stirring. I hope you never intend to visit China - in all seriousness, there will be eyes on you. If you do go, leave ALL of your tech at home.

 

[JAG]

Thought you were on "holidays"

After half a bottle of bourbon my daughters got me set up on twatter....been having some alcohol driven fun

 

[LX600]

Morning all! I think it is time for Nigel to contact CNN and pay for the top story corner and expose the whole story of the China/Zijin dirty play and say AVZ is keeping fighting

 

[Sammy_da_Smile]

Very interesting documentary on the DRC for those that have 17 min free today.

Worth a watch.

Bloomberg here exposes the level of corruption in DRC from their own past leader surrounding one of their main banks, and also Chinese mining companies funnelling money out of the DRC without abiding by their give back agreements.

I think it is time they give us a go, don't they already have enough Chinese companies in the country that have wronged them so many times?

Fyi,

Gécamines: Cogep denounces the irregularities in the sale of mining titles

Publication this Thursday, May 19 in Lubumbashi, of the report entitled "Gécamines, What hides the mutual agreement".

This report by the Coalition for Public Enterprise Governance (COGEP) analyzed two mining partnership contracts.

This is the contract signed between Gécamines, Metalkol and Evelyne.

In this report, the results of the investigations show irregularities on the issue of disposal of certain mining assets.

This is the case of the signing of the contract between Gécamines and the company Metalkol.

According to this report, the contract was signed while the case was still pending in court.

The case pitted First Quantum Minerals against Gécamines.

Investigators are also finding signs of financial malfeasance.

There are also corrupt practices and mismanagement in the negotiation of two contracts.

For example, Gécamines ceded the mining title to Metalkol at 60,000,000 US dollars.

It is an undervaluation, say the investigators because its real market value is estimated at 2,690,000,000 US dollars.

The report reveals the responsibility of the agents of Gécamines and that of the political leaders.

By way of illustration, Cogep raises the case of Dan Gertler. Indeed, Gécamines also ceded the royalties in Metalkol to the Multree company belonging to this Israeli businessman.

Gécamines officials prioritize their interests to the detriment of the population

The NGO members of Cogep point out that none of the disposals analyzed in the context of the study were carried out in compliance with the laws of the DRC.

According to them, everything happened in the total indifference of the Congolese government and Parliament.

The report then depicts a connivance of interest and an obsession of the agents of Gécamines and certain political leaders.

All want to manage mining assets in violation of the established legal and institutional framework.

This, for the sole purpose of guaranteeing their personal interests, we read in this document.

To do this, Cogep recommends that the President of the Republic order the review of all mining contracts concluded from 2009 to date.

Also, it asks the General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF) to audit the management of Gécamines agents.

It must be said that this study, supported by Open Society Initiative for Southern Africa (OSISA), was carried out for a period of one year, from February 2021 to February 2022.

More hold ups?

 

[Samus]

Seems these mofos have successfully surrounded AVZ in a negative light throughout the media again. A quick search reveals plenty of negative media in the past 24 hours along the same lines as the AFR article.
I'm not seeing anything coming out in defence of AVZ, at least not going by the headlines.
Not really finding anything in regard to this NGO conference from yesterday that I was looking for.

This is getting murkier every day, and it looks like China are pulling many strings. I'll take a $2 takeover.
