Funny, thought he ran his campaign on ending Covid…
Contact tracing with a virus this transmissible, with this short of a doubling time, is a complete waste of time. Full stop. -
How many boosters are you willing to get?
Maybe someone else has posted this, apologies since I havent read thru the entire thread, but in any case, the annual flu shot isn’t a booster, they actually change the virus coded within two match the dominant strains moving around the world each year Since that changes. So not the same at... -
How many boosters are you willing to get?
I am not getting anymore unless the RNA coded within is for a new more serious variant not covered by the first iteration. And the fact is, that really wouldn’t be a booster. -
POLL: Pick the 2024 Democratic Nominee, if Biden Doesn't Run
No, no different. It isn’t the office. It’s the types of folks the inhabit the office that is the issue. No one of any real potential goes directly from that office to contention. Period. Name the most recent Presidential nominee from either party that was a Transportation Secretary just... -
POLL: Pick the 2024 Democratic Nominee, if Biden Doesn't Run
If you aren’t exciting you don’t pull in anybody. Maybe you get a vote on a poll but not at the actual ballot box. -
One out of Every 400 Americans Dead from COVID
You know that’s a solid question. 1) Don’t close businesses. 2) Move quickly on testing and tracing to start but once its clear that its not effective, abandon it. 3) Be truthful with the public. No games to save PPE. No scare tactics. When you don’t know, dont act like you do then... -

This is so wrong it would be laughable if it weren't so sad. -
One out of Every 400 Americans Dead from COVID
It’s too late to be serious about climate change. People say they care. But fact is they don’t. Well except maybe 20% of the population. I am not sure about it myself honestly. Actually being able to do anything that actually matters that is doable. Educate and do our best to... -
One out of Every 400 Americans Dead from COVID
Lots. The urgent cares and EDs are flooded with people wanting to get tested really early. And this is before these meds are available. I would, prior to Covid, agreed with you. Not anymore. -
Smiles all around. Julius EEEEEEEEEEEEERVINGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The crazy thing is, the stuff he was doing then is basically standard fare these days as far as dunks go. -
POLL: Pick the 2024 Democratic Nominee, if Biden Doesn't Run
You mean the former mayor of South Bend who is now the nearly invisible Secretary of Transportation? He just screams leadership. I’d vote for putting him in a tank with a helmet on ala Dukakis. And yes I pray to god my party doesn’t nominate Trump again. FTR. -
Bicyclist dies on Linn County road
The deceased has been named. 73 yo male. IIRC. -
People flying are just nuts these days
Something clearly wrong with this woman. The anger she shows towards him, while her mask is off, is obviously projection rather than fear for her health if she were to acquire COVID. -
People flying are just nuts these days
Well it wasn’t clear how long he had his mask off except what we see in the video during the kerfuffle. -
People flying are just nuts these days
My sentiment exactly. But said much more concisely. :). -
People flying are just nuts these days
Word is he was eating. So if that’s true… he is blameless. Fact is, if you don’t worship at the altar if the cult of COVID these days you are unclean and looked down upon by the true believers. Who believe themselves to be holier than thou. I’m not joking. This is WAY out of hand. If this... -
ERs in Vermont
Which is exactly why we need to move away from 10 day isolation ASAP. It makes no difference except to critical service industries where it negatively affects it. Teaching. Healthcare. EMS. etc. Isolate until fever free 24 hrs and symptoms improving and well enough to work. Then back at it... -
ERs in Vermont
After their federally mandated by EMTALA medical screening exam I’d hope……. -
Iowan dies after a 15-day wait for a medical center bed. His survivors blame the COVID surge
100% Correct. And even if the local hospitals have a surgeon, they may not have the resources they need there in any case to do the surgery. I will say again though, that the staffing problem in hospitals is a huge part of this issue. I’m not trying to distract from Covid. Covid certainly is...
