No worries. I do that too.
I think you’re confusing Dole and McCain, and I’m also going to take this opportunity to lol @ tOSU.
Wow, my dad got jabbed at St Johns yesterday as well.
My second trip at Yankee Stadium was the most efficiently run public operation I have ever experienced in New York. Literally 5 minutes from getting in line I was waiting out the 15 minute allergy warning in the Legends Club. There was even street parking less then a block away! Would have been nice if they let you take a celebratory run around the bases but I guess you can’t have everything.

Nope - it was intentional - Dole had a badly injured right arm. When Bush died, he had to salute with the left hand:
The old soldier raised his left hand — a proper military salute is done with the right hand, but Dole lost use of it after he was badly injured in the war — and held it to his eyebrow. Well done, faithful servant, the salute seemed to say.

Whatddya know, two old GOP senators with arms that don’t work well.
Well Pops, seems to me if you can figure out how to post on an internet forum you should also be able to make your own vaccine appointments.

Someone posted on my town’s FB page about having gotten his first jab yesterday at the town’s outdoor vaccination site, and complaining that the process “was neither smooth nor fast,” given that he waited almost an hour for the jab.
He’s being properly eviscerated in the comments.

Dole had a messed up arm too. (Maybe just his hand. Also war injury.)
Roughly 1/3 of adults say they won’t get vaccinated. Will be a bit lower than that it practice, we will probably get to like 70 percent this time next year.
Going to be a bit more problematic then just let the deplorables die too (not directing this at anyone) as likely minorities and poor will skew light on vaccine uptake. I don’t have a good solution as asking vaccinated to keep lives on hold indefinitely isn’t tenable either
I was looking for a estimate of annual COVID deaths after widespread vaccine availability. And specificallly deaths among those who couldn’t get the vaccine for legitimate medical reasons and those who got the vaccine but died of COVID anyway.
Ah gotcha. Not smart enough to have a number there but I’d guess US society might accept a number as high as 50-75k a year for “normalcy” and that number may be low
sorta covid related:
This is the kind of stuff I was talking about wrt several months ago.

I’m not a doctor either but it is my understanding there is roughly a billion other random pediatric viruses that can cause pneumonia.

Walmart uses that. Seems like a cool idea. I didn’t get any noticable amount of bleeding.
Got my jab scheduled about 3 hours away. Will probably use Amtrak for the 2nd dose.

Ya got questions about blood clots and hemorrhages?
Basically the cliffs are that they are rare, clots are more common in women (estrogen is dumb), hemorrhages are more common in men (I’m like 90% sure on that), and while they are rare and more likely to happen as you get older, can happen to anyone.
