COVID-19 2020

Because I'm concerned about the midterms, I'm looking into a new mask
(my old birdwell one has gone missing…would possibly buy again, but the latest offerings are not to my liking)

I don't like any mask that hangs on my ears…so limits me, but found some nice options and curious what people think
I mean we are going to be wearing these everyday for the rest of our lives, might as well be comfortable and stylish

Biden hasn't done anything wrong but appeal to reason.

Every anti-vax politician is heavily invested in the drug companies that make drugs for treating COVID. Vaccines prevent the illness, and vaccinated people don't need to be treated.

Spread antivax propaganda through political messaging, evangelical churches and conservative school districts, and get as many people sick as possible. Sure, some people will die, but drug companies will profit, as will their shareholders.

Yikes, not sure I buy that whole scenario… but some truth there

This is exactly Rand Paul's script (remdesivir) and DeSantis (regeneron)

Think they're the only ones?

I thought they already said they were going to mandate is for the military? Perhaps I'm wrong. Anyway, that is big, and good news. Only 50% of the military has chosen to be vaccinated so far. Could they possibly fire the other 50%?

"Per the FDA–
Pfizer's now fully approved Covid vaccine will be marketed as: Comirnaty, for the prevention of Covid-19 disease in individuals 16 years of age and older"


How is that even pronounced? [font=Verdana]Come-'ere'-Natty?[/font]

Got comorbidities? Get Comirnaty™!

apparently TFG said that the vax was good and people should take it this weekend in AL

he also got booed when he said it.  he immediately backed off, saying that he got it and maybe others should consider it too but you have your freedoms so do whatever you want…  i guess it's better than nothing (which is more than we should expect from that POS).

Federal government needs to start compelling people, organizations and businesses to ensure more people get vaccinated… carrots and stick

I wish it hadn’t proved necessary but for many reasons it’s now evident it is

This is a battle that could go on for years so might as well get started… there doesn’t seem anyway around it

Biden urges employers to require Covid vaccination
The president’s call for schools and business to require vaccination comes amid stiff resistance by some Republican governors and lawmakers.

This:

All of this, we can hope, will create an atmosphere in which being unvaccinated by choice will mean voluntarily marginalizing oneself from society. If you’re determined to make that statement about yourself, that you’re the kind of person to whom “freedom” means taking the chance of infecting other people with a virus that has killed millions, we’re going to do everything we can to isolate you.

From the same op-ed:

Experts now say we’ll never reach true herd immunity; rather than covid being eliminated, the pandemic will end with it becoming merely endemic, a part of our lives that never goes away but is suppressed to a level of infections and deaths we can tolerate, like other viruses.

I'd like to see an age breakdown of vax refusers. I have a sense that they're mostly over 40, even 50, and thus will age out of society (die) in a couple of generations. Younger generations will routinely get vaxxed for school and COVID may get to be a mumps-like rarity.

Never mind, goddamn it... (sorry, Forbes.com link)

The KFF poll, conducted May 18-25, found that the highest share of unvaccinated respondents were 30-49 years old (41%), followed by 29% ages 18-29 and 20% ages 50-64, while only 9% of those unvaccinated were 65 and older.
