The bummer is that all people, vaccinated or not, will stop wearing masks, so we're gonna have at least a little bump in cases.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Let them get their natural immunity; it’ll only get us closer to putting this in the rear view. They’ve had their chance otherwise.

Who cares? Everyone has had a chance to get vaccinated at this point that needs it. Time to move the fuck on. Finally.

This doesn’t matter if your governor, mayor, etc has different (stricter) ideas.

You still have to watch the hospital capacities. It should be fine since we’re moving into summer, but it’s hard to say.

Our dude, in a “stave off a recall effort” I’m sure, gave a date as well. I think June 30. He also mimicked the CDC guideline. So there ya go.

Where are the overwhelmed hospitals? You can argue hospitals were never truly overwhelmed, even in the beginning. Just admit that it's over.

Every single one all over the country. They all got on a zoom call to come up with a conspiracy that the hospitals were overwhelmed when in fact they were completely empty.

I was wondering where all the respirators made under the defense procurement act went... I mean... did we ever actually retool factories to make any of those?

The ventilator that kept my dad alive was made in June 2020. The hospitalist said several of their older vents were sent to rural hospitals and the coasts. I'm sure there was a need for them somewhere.
