Yes I take covid seriously.
But itâs Thanksgiving.
I think we can be certain that the companies and various health agencies are following up with the partial data from the Study purportedly with 1/2-full.
Until there is effin data the rest is pure speculation. Donât pull a [redacted ashole] at my old fermentation plant and start changing things on partial information and cause the whole process to crash.
It will be great if we can increase capacity by 1/3 but we are already on a super compressed timeline. Itâs going to take a bit longer to test.
To me the worst we can do is to give people a false sense of immunity of an ineffective regime and then they YOLO us into even more spread and death.

Yep.
I just received the Moderna vaccine via a drive-through clinic specifically for practicing healthcare workers. Arrived 20 minutes early (6:40am) to a line of 30 cars, but received my shot at 7:25. Overall it was an efficient, pleasant experience with good vibes all-around. Iâm very grateful we still have our competent dem governor instead of the incoming R sociopath/science-denier.
Thanks so much for the encouragement here or I might have deferred my spot. Itâs a relief to know that my family and clients will all be a little safer soon. But you donât have to be jealous that Iâll be running around partying like a moron. I donât plan on changing anything until all of our vulnerable (including my family) are also protected. I recognize this is a privileged spot to be in and donât take it lightly.

With regard to the vaccination clusterfuck, how important is the timing of the second dose? If people arenât getting the second dose exactly at or very close to the time indicated, is it likely that will have an impact on the vaccinationâs effectiveness? The task of getting a shot into hundreds of millions of people in as short a time period as possible is already daunting. Getting those hundreds of millions of people to then return on a specific day justâŚdoesnât seem like something we as a people are capable of achieving. And whoâs making sure, as we pump out first doses as quickly as possible, that we donât get ahead of ourselves and dispense so many first doses that there arenât enough second doses when the time comes? Like, in these stories weâve heard of some vaccines being given to otherwise non-eligible people because they were about to expire, when itâs time for those people to get their second dose are they now more of a priority than the at-risk people who havenât yet received a first dose?
I am now ready for Space Karen and the Billionaires to show that it is in fact their leadership and brilliance that has made them so successful.
Also: I happen to have one of my kidsâ immunization record handy, and they were not vaccinated against polio. They are currently 15 and we are in California.

Biden is definitely aware of the logistics of getting the vaccine out. He was interviewed on the Late Show last week and he said getting the actual vaccine injected will be the most difficult part.
My sister was vaccinated last week. She said they set up an appointment for the 2nd shot before you leave the Dr. office. I assume most places will be like that.

I donât comprehend why any of these wealthy countries didnât massively over order all possible options.
Whatâs the worst that happens, you donate vaccines to poorer countries if you end up with too much.
In none of the cases is money a legitimate limiting factor.
Plus you can structure deals in a manner that the manufacturers have to meet certain milestones.
The US should have at least a billion vials in order given we are dealing with numerous manufacturers.

I believe they accidentally gave some people a half dose by mistake then backtracked the results she saw a potential difference.
Doesnât seem like it is well established.
The founding fathers would say, âJim, why have you dedicated your entire life to protecting and defending rapists?â
Founding Fathers would wonder why the fuck Ohio is a state.
