Anybody want a Corona?

Another normal day in this thread.

nothing to see here, folks. Just some middle aged, middle or upper class white men telling a woman how to act "appropriately".

I'm lower middle class at best, which makes it even crazier I seem to have a more based grasp on this than Dr Doomer Walensky.

If you believe you have a more based grasp than the CDC director, then I think you've gone full MAGA.

Let me go off script here and talk about the recurring feeling of IMPENDING DOOM I have is such a fucking insane thing for the director of the CDC to say. I wouldn't do that. Pretty wild some chump like me has that much figured out and this lady who lives in a 4 million dollar house can't get there.

Hey, I thought the "impending doom" line was a bit much, too. Still, publicly stating that you have a better grasp on the virus and its future than the CDC director is pretty MAGA. I wouldn't do that.

I'm merely stating that my messaging to the public wouldn't involve an off script freak out barely appropriate for your Talkspace therapist let alone the entire American public.

Damn, we were so close:

Missed it by that much: Australia falls 3.4m doses short of 4m vaccination target by end of March

Cut him some slack. We hit 18% of the targeted rollout.

Spoiler: show

With all respect, he's a c^nt.

it's always a shit show when a country starts this up. good news is once the snags are worked out, it can gain momentum quickly.

NEW YORK — Pfizer says its vaccine continues to be effective against COVID-19 up to six months later.

Pfizer and its German partner, BioNTech, announced updated results Thursday from their ongoing late-stage study of more than 44,000 volunteers.

The companies said the vaccine was 91% effective against symptomatic disease and was even more protective in preventing severe disease. Of 927 confirmed COVID-19 cases detected through March 13, 77 were among people who received the vaccine and 850 were among people who got dummy shots.

There were no serious safety concerns and the vaccine also appeared to work against a variant first detected in South Africa, the companies said.

The U.K. and U.S. gave the emergency green light to roll out Pfizer’s vaccine late last year followed by many other countries. The vaccine is authorized for ages 16 and up.

This week, the companies said the vaccine is safe and strongly protective in kids as young as 12, based on a study of 2,260 U.S. volunteers.

Vaccine is open to everyone in my state now (CT). I have to say I think my state has done a good job this last year. My own father who would rather look like a fool than praise a Democrat actually (lightly) praised our Dem governor, and is happy overall with how we managed it. He's not the only one I've heard this from in real life. There's a medium sized concert venue (Oakdale Theater) steps from where I work, so I'll probably venture over there soon.
