Right.  When I said not much problem I meant in getting people to vaccinate.  We've had plenty of COVID and lots of people have been sick, etc.  Right now there isn't much of an issue though.  No deaths for a few weeks and case numbers very low.  Everyone is outside during the summer though so there just isn't much transmission here during this time of the year.

TX and FL are in the dog days too.  The only way to explain the rise in hospitalizations there is the lower percentage of vaccinated population--maybe they are indoors too much (That's a DiSantis explanation) or in some other minds its the flood of illegals coming in with it.  It's all over the place.

 

 

And just like that, another client, Walgreen's has just sent a message that all contractors whether vaccinated or not, wear a mask while in their stores.  Effective today.  Nationwide.  The next argument is going to be over the areas of substantial or high levels of transmission.  Just wait for it, it's coming.

You've contradicted yourself in this post. Troll!  :P

If you think wearing a seatbelt is necessary to keep you safe, it's better to just not drive at all.

That's a great point. The Biden admin is literally bussing, and in some instances flying in, covid-positive illegal aliens all over the country. So either he doesn't think Covid is that serious or he simply doesn't care how many US citizens he kills. Those are the two options.

Do I need to bring my own rock salt and gravel?

See?  Which is it Kz, a virus that's killing people or illegals?  

Trump totally secured the southern border. Great wall, truly beautiful wall.

Unless they are saying he did not secure our southern border.

Ugh.  I'd love to pull a rambo and just pull my gun out when someone tells me to put on a mask.  But, that does about enough good as the ones who refuse to do their part to lessen the strain on our health care workers.  They've been at this for awhile now.  There's no excuse when most of the hospitalizations can be prevented.  So stupid.  Stupid people.  I know, can't fix stupid.

Yeah, I think we are trending this way. I'm vaccinated, but I Wear masks on the Train everyday, Now the condo, I expect my office to follow suit in the coming days. I am starting to worry about Eagles Games and the Concert I have at Citizens bank park later this month. The problem is we can't tell who is vaccinated and who is not, especially at the WAWA or places were the mask less gather. I haven't had Covid yet, don't want to start now.

Sure thing.  One big difference over here in the summer is that we don't do much inside because it isn't usually so hot that one wants to be inside in the air conditioning.  If you're in TX or FL you're going to want to be inside during June/July/August quite a bit I would think.

Trump is responsible for 600,000 dead. Trump is a mass murderer.

Oh, you want risk elimination? Then kill yourself now, because you can't catch COVID if you're dead. No more risk. Otherwise, it's about what we can do to limit risk to ourselves and others.

Well, that was unhinged...

No, I specifically said that this is not about elimination. My point was that, if you're not vaccinated, you might want to wear a mask around your kids. I believe part of the logic behind the NIH official's comment was that Delta apparently can be spread by vaccinated people. Masking at home for vaccinated parents still seems a bit excessive, but unvaccinated parents are definitely putting their unvaccinated kids at risk of transmission.

He was joking.

I was out there less than a month ago.  Still snow everywhere!  14,000 feet above sea level.

You really need to dump that unhealthy cola habit

This is why DeSantis is great. Immediately gets to the heart of the discussion. If coronavirus is so serious that we have to dramatically change our way of life and inflict economic devastation on ourselves and the citizens of the country, we shouldn't be allowing illegals to pour over our borders by the hundreds of thousands every month.

COIVID = real and tangible (hundreds of thousands of Americans have died from a novel virus that has only been with us for almost 2 years)

Border = false threat (the same number of illegals were crossing every day under the Trump admin, as well as Obama, as well as Bush, etc.).  In fact, illegal immigration has been on the decline since at least 2010

Also, nice to see how cavalier he is as his state sets its record for daily hospitalizations for COVID.  What a POS

Just walk outside and aim your magnetic vax spot - you will feel the pull of illegals.

I don't know, but I found an excellent taco truck across town. If Hillary would have won in 2016, they'd be on every corner by now. EVERY CORNER!!

Um, no, just no.

 

 

This is an interesting thread, which also results in breakaway arguments between actual doctors.
