Fauci says vaccine for under 5s could be EUA’d in Feb.

day 5 with covid. i can't taste coffee but can taste peanut butter. so weird. coughing up some pretty viscous gunk.

my wife lost her taste yesterday.

we are both vaccinated and boosted.

Short of dying long term sensory loss sounds like the worst possible outcome. Hope this passes quickly.

The chronic fatigue also sounds awful.

It’s odd, we could taste just fine when we had it. Now that we’re like ten days out, we both struggle to taste things in the morning, but by lunch everything is back to normal. Been like that for five days.

Maybe you're just eating oatmeal for breakfast. There's no taste to that.

I stand by it. Oatmeal is bland on it's own. The real flavor comes from what you add, be it fruit (dried or fresh), brown sugar, sliced almonds or other nuts, milk or cream.

Yeah this is correct, no one puts plain oats in a bowl and is like "mm, yummy."

"I will bring every single gun loaded and ready to, I will call every..." and then she gets cut off. I honestly think she was trying to say something like loaded for bear, and it was just an awkward turn of phrase. Obviously she should choose her words more carefully.

I will donate ten dollars to Moms Demand Action if she ends up doing gun violence at the school.

What do you mean by “loaded for bear”?

It's a colloquialism, lenny.

"to play on the big stage that is New York, you'd better come loaded for bear"

[dad]

ah, okay…

so unlike being cum-loaded for bare.

[doug rr]

i lived in new york for 10 years and the only bears i encountered were at a bar below 14th st

[spike]

But she didn’t say loaded for bear at all.

[macphisto]

But that’s what she meant.

[dad]

is it tho?

[macphisto]

She’s harmless.

[spike]

But that’s what she meant.

Because they share the word loaded?

[macphisto]

Correct. It’s a nuance thing.

[spike]

Yes very subtle

Fauci says vaccine for under 5s could be EUA’d in Feb.

Does he also tell you when it’s ok to take out your pacifier?

[simple schoolboy]

How many under 5s have even been hospitalised with this? The risk profile for any vaccine for such minute benefit seems to argue against giving it to under fives.

Spike's not your enemy, bammer. He's a reasonable guy.
