He's really out there living his life not afraid like a true patriot

He's truly an inspiration. I'm going to throw out my mask and start being a totally unbearable asshole to everyone.

She actually lives in Nashville! Maybe verb can go console her.

The math says that if only counting Texas public school kids, ~1 in every 100,000 have died over COVID in around 18 months. And because Texas is largely incapable of thinking before reacting, the lack of tracing data means we have no way of knowing if they caught it school. And since we can agree classrooms should not be filled with hazmat suits, we acknowledge a limit exists in efforts to keep kids safe. So if we say that more needs to be done after keeping 99,999 out of 100,000 safe because that is not good enough… what then is the goal between zero deaths and what we have today that counts as safe enough?

People aren't ready for this conversation yet.

We had this conversation last year pre vaccine. It’s disgraceful we’re still having it post vaccine.

It's a different situation though.

- The vaccine was developed against the original version of the virus, there are now variants that escape it
- The vaccine does not provide years of protection even against the original virus, only months, possible as low as six months
- Teachers were amoungst the first vaccinated... roughly 6 months ago
- The majority of school kids cannot be vaccinated (yet)
- The broadest circulating variant is far more contagious than previous variants and reproduces in the nose and throat meaning low-grade or ill-fitting masks (like the kind most kids have) are not as protective as last school year


I agree though that the fact that there are millions of college educated people out there who will not take a free, safe, effective mitigation step because of some stupid political identity group lock-in is disgraceful. Dead people can't own the libs.

Aren't they already making plans for the fourth booster in NZ/Australia? Take the vaccine if you want but there no reason to put life on hold anymore at this point. Science lost.

Israel and Pfizer are working on a modded version for a fourth round there, yes.

I AM LITERALLY SHAKING

My only hope of escaping infection might be the overpowered cologne of my Uber driver somehow neutralizing the virus. HE COUGHED IN THE CAR.

Pray

My friend just lost one of her best friends to covid. 3 weeks on vent and ECMO machine. 39 years old. Unvaccinated.

BUt yea, hysteria and woke people. Cool.

Unvaxxed by choice as a political statement?

[verb_to_trust]

I currently have a fitted flat brimmed USMNT crest hat on.

This sounds like BS.

A 39-year-old should've never been put on a ventilator for Covid.

[dad]

i love the thought of verb walking past people on the streets--any street--looking them in the eyes and saying, "SUNS IN FOUR! SUNS IN FOUR!," as a reference to science losing the battle against covid.
