But yeah, for those with issues, or probably good advice for anyone in general, is to avoid strenuous exercise for a week or so after getting the shot. Probably best to just take it easy during that time to err on the side of caution.

A whole week?! Nah bro, gotta lift.

We just had our draft where 10 out of the 12 guys in my league met up for the weekend at a lake a few hours away to play golf, go out on the boat, and basically get wasted for a couple nights. I know for a fact that at least half got vaccinated, and a couple others most likely did but can't say for sure. A few of them though were a bit on the "covid is NBD" side of things and gave off some vibes that they're not gonna get vaccinated for something that's being overblown. Needless to say, I chose to take a rain check on that excursion (I hate golf being the primary reason) but I'll be curious if we ever hear about anyone getting it since I'm sure they hit up the bars, restaurants, and what not for those two nights.

You continue to show your ignorance. VAERS is not what you think it is.

Interestingly enough I never mentioned what it meant to me. You must be chick. 

 

Dry but informative conference call with Dr. Gregory Poland from the Mayo Clinic on a large study they recently released and on covid in general during the Q&A session. 

TL/DW: Vaccines work, really well. Mutation rate of a population is inversely proportional to vaccination rate. Masks work, really well when worn properly. Kids should wear masks in schools. EUA for kids may not come until 2022 :sad:. Thinks we are on verge of multiple variant emergences that will completely escape current vaccine induced immunity, at which point we'll have to start over and relive 2020. :sad::sad::sad:

He didn't extrapolate on that last point, but that's the first I've read or heard about something like that. Not sure what to make of it, but I struggle with taking that at face value given everything else we know so far.

Yeah this DR is talking out his arse. The EUA will be before 2022 and the current vaccines can be  updated relatively quickly. There is zero chance on going back to 2020

Joe Shades just got out-eeyored by a mayo clinic doc. Now I've seen everything. :lol:

He doesn't strike me as an attention seeker, but that also doesn't mean he's necessarily right on that particular prediction. I think his background is in immunology, not virology or epidemiology so consider that context as well. And like I said, it's the first I've heard of a take that pessimistic from anyone prominent and respected in their field that didn't come from someone like Michael Osterholm.

Optimist’s View

The hopeful scenario has Covid-19 infections on the retreat this month. The wave began in Arkansas and Missouri in early June and ended there about two months later. Florida and Louisiana ignited about two weeks after the Ozarks, and they saw the surge last about 58 days (counting from the first sustained weekly increase in seven-day average cases.) In the rest of the country, the wave turns 60 days old on Monday.

The effective reproduction number -- an estimate of the average number of people to whom an infected person will spread the virus -- is declining in most states, according to Covidestim, a modeling project with contributors from Yale School of Public Health, Harvard’s T.H. Chan School of Public Health and Stanford Medicine.

Numbers below 1 signal that cases are expected to fall soon, and 22 states are already below that level, according to the estimates. The majority of the other states are between 1 and 1.2 and trending lower.

Once the U.S. peaks, some prognosticators think it could see a sustainable lull in cases, thanks in part to the immunity built up over the past couple months. Just since the start of June, Covid has probably infected some 20 million people in the U.S., according to Covidestim’s extrapolations. The fast-spreading variant also scared many Americans who might otherwise not have gotten vaccinated, with about 28 million more people fully inoculated now.

So when do they approve the vaccine that vaccinates?

You've been getting waxxed for years.  You've got that part of the raw dog more than covered.

You can find any opinion you want out there from some dude with a resume.  There are ideas all over the map.  The one constant is "get vaccinated".
