July 13, 20214 yr Tennessee health official was fired after releasing a memo - That simply reiterated the state law concerning medical care of teens. Tennessee has also halted all vaccination outreach efforts towards minors. LINK She is right to be afraid for her state.

A party that has gone completely and utterly insane when they used to be the adult in the room. Now we are forced to trust the 16 year old with the keys to the country over the petulant toddler stomping his feet and refusing to take his cough medicine.
July 13, 20214 yr I know I've said this already on here, but I got the measles in high school and it's brutal. Totally kicked my ass.
July 13, 20214 yr I should be clear: Tennessee will no longer support flu shots in schools, no reminders for boosters for kids, the even stripped their name from any vaccine info sheets. This is a massive failure. They’ve essentially caved to the anti-Vaxxers.

Bricking a lay-up like this would leave me terrified of what other inconceivable awful decisions are being made.

July 14, 20214 yr Biden allied groups, including the Democratic National Committee, are also planning to engage fact-checkers more aggressively and work with SMS carriers to dispel misinformation about vaccines that is sent over social media and text messages. The goal is to ensure that people who may have difficulty getting a vaccination because of issues like transportation see those barriers lessened or removed entirely.
July 14, 20214 yr Terrible fearmongering headline, cases are not surging here, because they were so low any slight increase will seem dramatic if you just use %. If we had 1 cases last week but 2 this week you could say oh my cases increase 100% https://edition.cnn.com/2021/07/13/health/us-coronavirus-tuesday/index.html

There really is no better way to get the information out there. I know every person that knocks on my foot gets at least an hour of my time

July 14, 20214 yr Judging by the crowds at the airport and out and about on our vacation I'd say most people are over the pandemic. And not one anti-masker encounter at the airports or on the planes. I'd also say 95% of people aren't wearing masks at all. One thing I will say is that restaurants and some stores are really struggling with finding people who want to work. Lots of staff at restaurants are pulling triple duty. Bartenders were taking orders, running food and bussing tables in some places.

I know every person that knocks on my foot gets at least an hour of my time oh I don't disagree that it's a stupid approach. I made it known here that I believe a better approach would be for the administration to engage with PCPs and if necessary fund some sort of outreach there, have PCPs actively calling their patients and communicate as medical professionals. Even include some outreach to spiritual leaders in various communities to make the case to their congregations. But knocking door-to-door is stupid. And any of this SMS stuff absolutely smacks of overreach and will be played up by the right. Again the left is its own worst enemy. But that said, the mistakes the Biden admin is making are pretty small compared to the idiocy of the right-wing machine turning its anti-vaxx propaganda up to 11.

I figure it won't be until school is back in session that you see a return to the workforce for many. there are a lot of moms that work in the restaurant service industry, and a lot of those moms are deciding they can hold off until their kids are back to school.
