This acronym is going to completely fuck with my life

my claim…

I cannot remember the acronym for this study but I assure you it’s happening - not a far stretch when above shows you we test 150,000 people monthly for antibodies and another 150,000 random asymptomatics or otherwise, many under 12yrs, since April 2020.

Yeah, don’t nail me to a tree, yet.

You’ve been asked for this citation multiple times, and you’ve always failed to provide it. You should expect to be getting questioned on why that is. Like, if you can’t recall enough detail to find it, why should anyone believe that your recollection of it is accurate?

I think I’d prefer the rowboat to the plane. Extreme social distancing.

I would think this is what Churchill is taking about.

The results are publicly available.

My mother says that in NYC, appointments are extremely difficult to get as the demand massively outweighs the supply. She got on Walgreen’s waiting list weeks ago but hasn’t heard anything. She’s 60+ so I figured she’d be eligible for an appointment.

Some of my family members in NYC only got it because they know somebody at an urgent care clinic who tipped them off to come in at the end of a day where they had extra vaccines.

One of my sisters changed her mind and is awaiting her second shot. She told me that her efforts to convince my other sister and her boyfriend did not work.

Tons of appointments on Walgreens in NYC right now. Just checked while I was editing my own appointment. You might want to help her make the appointment.

Dodger Stadium closed early yesterday because they didn’t have enough people show up to get vaccinated.

Yeah, I second Meraxes. I think you can find an appointment if you spend an hour or two looking. This Facebook group was very helpful when I was scheduling my appointment.

Also, not sure where your mom lives, but lots of sites showing availability here: https://vaccinefinder.nyc.gov/

I took my 16 year old to be vaccinated today about an hour outside of LA. They don’t have any real ID, but we brought their old school ID, a birth certificate, and some documentation to support their eligibility to receive the vaccine. We were asked to show exactly zero of any of that, as far as the people at CVS were concerned, there was an appointment, therefore a needle was going in an arm.

Seems like a huge leak not to verify age. If they’re under 16 and anything happens CVS is gonna have to pay out like a slot machine.

Agree, and doing anything to a minor without documenting parental consent also seems pretty risky.

They didn’t have you sign the consent form?

They didn’t have us do anything. We checked in, waited in a line, and they vaccinated my kid.

No paperwork at all? There had to be a form where they asked the standard questions (e.g. have you had an allergic reaction to vaccines, are you pregnant, etc.)?

They skipped that too? That’s fucking nuts.

I was asked that stuff online when I made the appointment.

There should be a form like this:

(Section 1 is different everywhere, but Section 2 and beyond are standard everywhere).

I guess if that was done online in advance with e-signature, I suppose that would fulfill the requirement. I’m not sure what the laws are on that.
