My ex got an interesting anonymous newsletter in her mailbox. It starts out with COVID skepticism:
However after that, things rapidly begin to get weird.

Surprisingly, the âunmasking the surgeonsâ article and quotes appear to be genuine. I guess we should suspend all mask usage until we can figure out what the hell is going on.
A friend of mine replied that we need a Santorum-like campaign to coin a new word meaning âresearchâ, but in the sense of just googling stuff and reading Facebook posts.

I didnât count how many Covid positive patients came through my ED last night, but I took care of 3 directly. All young-ish, one got monoclonal antibodies, all went home.
Ironically, last night and the night before have been the least-busy nights in at least the last month or two. Probably because of the holiday. As recently as last Tuesday, it was hell on wheels.
I imagine the Tuesday night after the holiday will be rough. Thankfully Iâll be off for that one.

Got the third shot at 4:15pm yesterday. Was mostly fine through the rest of the day, little tired (likely unrelated) and arm was slightly sore. Woke up at 4:30am uncontrollably shivering and with a splitting headache. Finally made my way out of bed at 8 to take a baseline temp for the day and it was 99.9, so not too bad. Felt a few degrees higher overnight. Still have a bad headache and sore all over my body, very similar to my experience post shot two but not quite as bad currently.

Lets lighten things up in here. This is an actual serious post by actual people that I assume are able to tie their shoes and manage to get dressed in the morning:

Maybe Iâm the one being excessively cautious, but I see headlines like this and just go âWTF are people thinking??â
Edit: I know, I know, theyâre thinking, âIâm young, Iâm invincible, and if anything goes wrong I know where the feed store is.â
Movie theatres here still are only selling to like half capacity and itâs a great experience.
Have to be fully vaxxed too.

Wrong link? I mean, I know superhero flicks arenât for everyone, but this seems like the wrong thread to talk about, or the wrong link got pasted.
Iâm not going to crap all over vaxxed people who want to go the movies.

Sorry my point wasnât clear. Delta still tearing shit up, hospitals overrun, and also weâre breaking holiday box-office records seems incongruous to me. Maybe I missed the memo about how theaters are considered âsafe(r)â now but ~15 people a day are still dying in my county. Even fully vaxxed I think Iâd need about a 6-seat buffer to be comfortable sitting near strangers for two hours. I wouldnât trust theyâre all really vaxxed and the masks are coming off for eating and drinking as soon as the lights go down.
Iâm not trying to judge anybody whoâs made a different risk calculation and wants to see a movie. It just seemed like another sign that people refuse to acknowledge the severity of whatâs really happening.

Iâm still avoiding theaters, but I get why people are going back to them now.

Got it. I totally wasnât following. I would not begrudge people who were vaccinated and going to a masked theater, but I would estimate there arenât actually many of these, given how much they need concession sales to make money.

I think someone posted that they were able to rent out an entire theater in Manhattan for $200 to watch a movie (max 20 people IIRC). Seems like you can pull off a pretty safe theater experience if youâre willing to splurge a bit and have some friends/family that want to see the same movie.
