Crazy..the US back to 23% of worlds reported covid cases today
1000+ deaths (nothing like the 4000 at peak)
We -along with the world- are definitely riding a new wave now

As you probably know, UMD is requiring all students, faculty and staff to be fully vaccinated by the beginning of the Fall 2021 semester (Monday 8/30). Their update letter today says that we've attained a 92% rate, and it should be even higher when classes start in 11 days.
Fuck yeah!

Attestation or verification?

Not exactly sure. They somehow automatically got my info, probably from allowing such info to be shared with such parties. I seem to vaguely remember such a question (about info sharing) when I made my vax appointment (when it was limited to certain occupations, e.g. education).

For me it says "You have satisfied the vaccine requirement (either because your vaccination record has been verified or your exemption approved)."

Now that we know that vaccines hardly work, does it even matter?

That's great. 92% verification is the dream….

Anybody notice that roughly 35% of covid deaths in America have happened during Biden’s presidency?
What happens if we hit 50?

School District in TN where parent were seen losing their stuffing over the recommendation their precious children wear masks, now has a school closed because too many staff members are sick… also they can't do remote learning due a state mandate against it…

Am I crazy or are liberals now saying and rallying around idea we need to learn to live with covid that were outraged when Trump and his crowd were saying this?
Is this cause in the near future more people may have died under Biden than Trump?

It's mathematically inevitable this will be true, but biden will get dinged for those who died after jan 20th, when infact they likely got infected dec/jan
But don't we all need to get to the point where we need to live with covid and the risks. Can we really social distance and mask forever?
I wish this would impact people to get healthy as the overwhelming majority of fatalities were due to someone being in poor health to begin with (correct me if I'm wrong, but that's my understanding)
Now that's a little different for old people as that's not really an option

Why would it be more difficult for old people to make healthy choices than it would be for people younger than old people to?
