Prayers for him blueboss...
Today's news predicted in yesterday's post: all our AZ is going overseas.
Thanks!! Mrs boss took him a couple of over the counter nausea meds. Hope at least he can get relief from the nausea.Quote:

60+/- seems a likely ceiling of willing percentage.
Cincinnati had an open vaccination event this past weekend in Paul Brown stadium - 5,000 doses available, only 1,000 taken
Make it required for getting the stimulus money and the bonus unemployment money. that would fix it. it's not like they aren't just sitting at home doing nothing right now. They can get there and get a shot.
Ditto for a co-worker who get her 2nd shot yesterday--had to go home early.Quote:

I feel like Vincent Smith after he met Jadaveon Clowney, but still am at work.
Hey, Gog give me the opportunity to see another day and I am fever free; just feels like I am going through a whole-body frog.
Hopefully this will pass fairly uneventfully...
Passed around mid-day.Quote:

This times 10. They do not realize that they never had the measles, mumps, chicken pox, rubella, polio, diphtheria, tetanus, and tuberculosis, because their parents were REQUIRED to have them vaccinated before they could attend their first day of public school.Quote:

Multiple variants of Covid19 and the race to find a universal vaccine to treat them all.
Dan, I view it as promising, rather than disturbing.
I think we know that there are variations already, and viruses tend to mutate (the flu is damn near impossible to predict year to year). To think of a single vaccine that could wipe out all variations permanently is a panacea.
(I didn't read the whole article, so if I said something stupid, just slap me and tell me to go back to lurking.)
Some group home back east, all vaccinated, all came down with it. I could not find it but an RN told me the story as I was getting ready to render my vaccine utterly useless.
This is a false story. It is a variant on a similar false story that came out a few months ago stating that the vaccine gave a bunch of people COVID. Even the number dead is the same!Quote:

I will tell her. She and duke girl were exposed last weekend so we are quarantined apart because of this rumor. We are all vaccinated. But I am reading that certain drugs render vaccines useless due to their targeting (a certain type of blood cell critical to the immune system).(b lymphocytes) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32591357/
Albertsons/Safeway stores have availability in Bozeman, Belgrade, Whitefish, Kalispell, Polson, Missoula, Butte, Helena, Great Falls, Billings, Miles City, Glendive, Lewistown, Cut Bank, Hamilton, Deer Lodge and Dillon. (In other words every store in the state has vaccine.) The vaccine shortage is over, and the people willing to be vaccinated shortage has begun. Now the authoritarians will want passports and punishments.
I think that CBBN had the right idea that if the citizen was drawing any stimulus money they had to be vaccinated to get it, but I would extend that to those covered by medicaid and or medicare, and anyone with obamacare benefits.
I would not do any of that. Your body, your choice, as it were.
Anybody recall the sugar cube vaccine. Not sure which vax it was but I recall it as a child.Quote:

I remember the sugar cubes in the 70’s but they weren’t dosing a vaccine.Quote:

Definitely. A famous Kentucky boy had a big hand in it all.
The problem being that in this case there is a definite externality for someone getting Covid. They pass it on to others.Quote:

With waste oil we don't wait until adjoining property or downstream water is contaiminated and then take action b/c by then it's too late in many cases. Instead we regulate that private property cannot be used for such purpose without oversight, to avoid such contamination.
Same thing here.
Now, I'm not 100% OK with that direction, and I see it as ripe for all kinds of abuses, many of which we have seen ongoing during this pandemic. But I'm no fan of spreading the virus either.
the standard set with other vaccines, as Dan said, is that you cannot go to public school without them. I would think we can find some line there that helps prevent spread and encourages vaccination without going Chinese/Michigan Governor on us all.
But probably not. I'm ready to embrace the Chinese model of Fascism with a Leftist Coastal twist. Heavy use of social media, cameras and AI, but with more hypocrisy than Chinese Communists. :)
Polio, and we did not have a choice if we wanted to go to school.Quote:

I am your Pappy. I am here to spoil you silly; get used to it." will be more than worth it all. Miami, here we come!Quote:

I forgot one, and that was the smallpox vaccine. It used to tell one a lot about their age as it left a round scar on the upper arm that did not go away for years and years. They stopped giving that vax in 1972, if you had the scar you were born before then.Quote:

That round scar lasted near forever.
