  1. greg honestly thanks for the links. the reason why i bring that up is that we have been promised if we do xyz then covid will stop. none of it has worked time and time again. 1 mask, 2 mask, shutdowns, vaccine mandates, boosters, etc. now were stuck dealing with variants that no one is prepared for which i doubt anyone has a solution for.
  2. The biggest factor in getting each of us personally and our society as a whole back on track towards a "next normal" is to get vaccinated, if you're an adult over 18yo. Plain and simple. COVID is here to stay for the forseeable future, but people have stupidly made vaxxing a political issue. The most disturbing example of this over the last couple weeks is how much posturing people have taken over Trump's admission to Candace Owens that vaccines help, getting all anti-vax Trumpers in a tizzy.

     

    However...

    What still surprises me is the third-rail of this conversation: how many people of color refuse to get vaxxed. I'm somewhat familiar with the Tuskeegee Study so I appreciate that black people are skeptical of government solutions to this problem, but they are gambling with more than just their own life with this virus.

     

    clay its more than just the tuskeegee study. there has been a steady decline in the health of african americans for the last 40 years. for example, i have been going to mardis gras off and on for 30 years. now it is a regular occurrence to see a high school girl over 300 pounds and barely 5 foot 5 and now starting to see young children who will likely lose a foot due to diabetes in there 30s if they stay on that path. if one can't simply manage the needed physical activity, then its low chances they will be able to manage any other medical treatment.

  3. new york is doing everything your side wants... vaccinations to be empolyed, shut downs, etc and still has garbage numbers vs the rest of the country.

     

    people are born a certain way and not a thing is wrong with that... being 200 pounds over weight is a personal decision.

  4. new york is doing a great job with covid numbers using your logic. genetics has nothing to do with not being able to put down the spoon. sure people are born short, big boned, etc... but rocking 200 pounds over weight is a personal decision.
  5. "U.S. health officials' decision to shorten the recommended COVID-19 isolation and quarantine period from 10 days to five is drawing criticism from some medical experts and could create more confusion and fear among Americans. To the dismay of some authorities, the new guidelines allow people to leave isolation without getting tested to see if they are still infectious."

     

    is this how desperate biden is to save his sinking economy after shut downs destroyed small business, effected minorities at a higher rate, and during another surge?
