COVID-19: Chapter 7 - Brags, Beats, and Variants

oops

Haven’t heard a lot about a backlog but from a couple of anecdotal examples from the past week it seemed like it wasn’t too hard to get a vaccine. My parents have shot #1 of Pfizer at Swedish Covenant in the next hour

I’ve been told children won’t spread this disease, tho.

I was all cued up to take a train for shot #2, but now I’m driving because the Amtrak schedule doesn’t work and my pharmacy doesn’t have a provision for rescheduling.

Yes all travel is the same, whether it’s a car with 2 different families going to a sporting event or a car with a person going to get a vaccine

Are you trolling, or are you so uninformed about this subject that you think what was said there supports the baseless hypothesis you were peddling earlier?

I think every other first world country in the is limiting internal travel through fear of spreading the unknown but now realise this is an alien concept in the US

US news must be full of school bus drivers dying after 15 mins at the wheel. Genomic surveilance has improved so much over the pond, infections can be tracked back to vehicle rides. Must have been the first time those kids been in a car for months ;)

Do we know whether the car’s internal fans were on recirculate or whether any windows were open… surely we can learn from this

it’s always interesting to me how petty someone can be in reaction to, correctly, being told that they were wrong.

What the shit does any of this have to do with someone driving to get vaccinated?

Do we have any other J&J folks here? I don’t think there have been many if any yet. Good to see that it is getting out to regular people.

Tripling down now!

I kind of think in the US it is being used for hard to reach populations. My 95 year old homebound grandmother got J&J (at home).

Yeah, and I think someone posted an article here about giving it to the homeless, which is a good idea, but I also am in favor of shots in arms, so more shots of more kinds available to more people is good.

So with 4 million shots given today, and 101 million Americans vaccinated total, it seems like Fauci’s long ago prediction of general vaccine availability by sometime in April turned out to be… pretty spot on? Fauci GOAT. Wasn’t it like sometime last year that he was making that prediction?
