We didn't have a wave in the summer last year because the weather is not favourable for viruses. On top of that we are doing well with the vaccine roll out and by summer most of the adult population will have been vaccinated. Keeping the population scared is how you control them

They’ve all realized how much money they can collect from insurance companies.

April 21, 20215 yr 14 minutes ago, we_gotta_believe said: So the fear of an increase in cases is unwarranted? Have I got that right, Joe? I believe so yes. Summer months, population mostly vaccinated, bit by bit easing of restrictions.

We're on pace to revert back to late summer levels in about 4 weeks or so. It's Joe that might have a hard time reconciling these two conflicting positions of his.

We're currently in a dead heat for doses administered per capita. At the end of summer, maybe they'll be at 60% total population while we're at 55%. It's not a step function, you can't crow about doom and gloom while pretending it's all a lie so the government can control you. These two positions are at opposite ends of the spectrum.

I just find it infuriating because it just gives such a negative message and i just don't see the logic behind it.

I can't speak to the messaging there, and while I think there's room for improvement here as well, to be fair to them I know here it's particularly difficult because of how regional outbreaks can be. Michigan is on fire while California is already back to summer levels. Makes it tricky for pubic health officials to speak generally when such disparities can exist.

If we are only at 55% that is not good , How many more variants by then?

April 21, 20215 yr Ok someone spin this as positive https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/21/health/vaccine-nursing-homes-infections.html "Altogether, 26 facility residents were infected, including 18 who had been vaccinated, and 20 health care personnel were infected, including four who had been vaccinated."

We we have all the best variants in the US. Nobody does variants like we do. In fact we might ship some of our variants to other countries and we’ll tax the hell out of them for it.

And that's fair enough but in the UK we are still talking in total rather than by area or region. Or should I say we are talking by country (England, Scotland, Wales) rather than region.

April 22, 20215 yr PLEASE GET VACCINATED. WE NO LONGER HAVE NATIVE CASES OF MEASELS AND POLIO THANKS TO VACCINES. PLEASE GET VACCINATED.
April 22, 20215 yr Daughter got her 1st Pfizer yesterday. She was hesitant last month as an educator taking the J&J and opted out. She had to stay for 30 minutes after as she has some known allergies. She was a little emotional. She wasn't sure if it was her emotions getting the better of her (she hates taking anything!), and that could have contributed to all her joints aching and she had fatigue more than her usual fatigue. She is up and at work today. I told her as always how proud I am that she did it! She's now asking me, do I have to take the 2nd shot? I told her since you had reacted to this one, the 2nd one should be easier. If not, it's only a day or part of the day that you will feel it, but then you will feel better. You can do it!
