Update.
This guy is a farmer. All of his employees but 1 are now positive, probably 6-8 people. Multiple people at his daily breakfast spot are now positive and blaming him. He is today in the hospital with an O2 of 80.

Looks like a HCA candidate
I still canât root for covid, just for his daughters sake, even though he was already near the top of my least favorite humans list before these events.
So⌠cases look to be dropping nationally. Our # of Covid cases at my hospitals are much lower and dropping. ICUs are still full but thatâs to be expected as the people who will die die. Things are ⌠getting better? Maybe?
Stonks seem to think so. Cruise lines have been having a very good run going back to last week.
Is it just Republicans hawking this? My definitely not Republican nurse wife is recommending them to her colleague and colleagueâs mother.
SCOTUS is specifying N95 or KN95 masks for lawyers in the courtroom (except when presenting an argument).
I was referring mainly to the likes of Abbott and DeSantis who both have a financial interest in Regeneron and are extolling the therapies in lieu of a vaccine. I assume your wife is pro-vaxx and also recommends the antibody therapies if you get sick nevertheless?
Evidence is not great, but if I wasnât vaccinated and I got ill Iâd get them too. If I got sick today while fully vaccinated? Maybe because I have a history of myocarditis already, but probably not. Personally we can order this from the ER, but I generally donât. Itâs not indicated for sick covid patients and weâve been too full to spend ER resources on not that sick covid patients.
I havenât been following the national trends, but weâre definitely over the hump in Oregon (at least for now), although as a state weâre still above last winterâs peak highs (Portland metro remained below last winterâs peak, though. Ya think vaccine hesitancy is at work here?). Hopefully we keep getting better, but the Wookie househould is definitely grumpy that weâre going to have to cancel our planned Thanksgiving with MrsWookieâs family because only 5 year olds might get vaccinated by then. I doubt national case loads are going to be low enough by then that weâd consider it, certainly not in Texas where her family is.
Yes, her colleague got sick a day or two after her second shot, so the patient was not fully vaxxed. I think the mother is high-risk. She is definitely pro-vax as wellâthat would be grounds for divorce for sure.
Seeing that âdozensâ of Mass cops are quitting due to vax mandate.
What we call a win-win situation.
Starting salary for a Massachusetts state trooper is $70,000. Imagine quitting because you donât feel like getting a COVID vaccine.
And their pensions if they stay long enough are almost unmatched in society.
No unemployment for you.
The median pay is about $150k, so itâs even more preposterous.
But you can also flip it around- imagine how big a deal this vaccine issue must be to you if youâre willing to sacrifice not only a high-paying job with fantastic benefits, but for most of them a whole lifestyle, basically your whole identity. Mind-boggling.
I imagine for a lot of them itâs less about the vaccine itself than about being strong-armed, being pushed around. Reminds me of something I read or heard about Joe Manchin (probably here): if he feels like heâs being strong-armed, he just digs in; youâve got to find another way to get what you want.
Iâm curious to see the data on how many actually quit (not told a media outlet they were going to quit) vs. how many gave in. I bet itâs like 1 to 10 or more.
The ones that quit may already have their 20 years. So they get a pension and they can work somewhere else.
Is it just me or is allowing random assholes to walk around a hospital yelling âTHEYâRE TRYING TO KILL YOU HEREâ not a thing that should exist?
