As others have pointed out, there is a level of vaccination that leads to herd immunity, i.e. enough of the herd is immune that disease cannot propagate through the herd. 97% is usually way above the level required for herd immunity.
Actually the mathematical models for this are very interesting and very predictive.

The most relevant part of this story is that it is incredibly easy for Google to do this kind of porting because THEY RUN LINUX.
Linux reliably supports these multiple architectures so easily that many major distributions have x86 and ARM versions ready for download.

How is the weather in St. Petersburg?

Qatar is giving the plane to the DoD.

For use by Trump.

So Trump will never own the plane, will likely never fly in,

Bullshit. If Trump says he flies in it, he flies in it, which he will.

it will be given to the Trump Presidential Library as a gift in the collection

Which Trump will then have use of by the agreement.

What is the threshold where Presidents need to get Congressional approval to accept a gift?

The constitution says that the president cannot accept any gift from another government, so anything would require approval.

It is clear to everyone that this is just a bribe to Trump. Your legal excuses do not fool anyone.

But why? What if I am having a conversation with my friend Bob? He talks, I talk, you can hear us both. If I talk to my cell phone, and Bob talks out of my phone, you can hear us both. In both scenarios you hear two people talking.
What is it about cell speaker phones that makes you all so uptight?
