let me stop you right there and point out that death counts are at least 3 months behind.

In no measurable way is mortality lower this year than any other year in the last century.


all the rest of what you wrote might be true, didn't read it. But that opening is factually and demonstrably incorrect.


Meh, it depends who's stats you read. I'm still not convinced that the mortality rate is any higher this year than in previous years.

It's certainly not the case in my country, and I'd be very surprised to find that was much different in any other country.

provide a source.

If you're not convinced that mortality is higher this year than any other year, why are hospital ICUs full and what are they putting in the body bags to fill up the refrigerated trucks outside the hospital?

Trump is preparing to take on Ben and Jerry since they've been so mean to him and has forced hospitals to convert intro giant ice cream manufacturing plants.

Day three after the vaccine and no issues, even the sore arm is gone.
Be sure to tag me with the 28 day update. Specifically I want to know if your eating habits have changed to more of a raw meat preference or if your coworkers look tasty, in a zombie kinda way.

Just an FYI... I'm going back on the carnivore diet in one week so my eating of a lot of rare meat will have nothing to do with the vaccine.


Unless I start chewing the limbs of people off when they're in my way.

Second dose now scheduled for January 29th. Hopefully my hospital system will realize that they need a separate process for registering for your second dose and I will be able to move it closer to the beginning of my eligibility. As it stands now, people scheduling their second dose are competing with people still seeking their first, which is going to quickly make it nearly impossible for people to find a slot for their first dose soon.

I thought the second dose had to be 19-21 days after. Or is that just the minimum number of days?

That is the minimum
The FDA approval was indeed for second dose at 21 days, but there is no immunological reason why getting it a few weeks “late” would be a problem.

From a regulatory standpoint, I expect the hospital system figures out a way to get the second doses at 21 days. I already sent an email with a proposal that would radially work; I expect people smarter than me have already realized this is going to be a problem and have the issue worked out. We will see.

Seems like they would have it almost auto-schedule the follow up like they do with the Hep B just to make things more efficient.

I don’t think the CDC’s VAMS allows that. Anyone who thinks we should let the government set up online voting should take a look at that site and get back to me. I am pretty sure I could build a site that does the same thing on Squarespace in about an hour and have it work better.

I don't think it's a new strain, I've been giving up cigarettes and using my vape. It makes you cough a lot when you do both.

So you prefer robot dick to cancer sticks?
And yes. I quit smoking once, I wanted to come back from Belgium smoke free. I don't count vaping, they have a million gay flavours, even tho I just have tobacco flavour juice. I'm not into blueberry sparkles and some of the other weirdo juice they have. It's pure replacement for me.

I have no doubt about that.

And after the beautiful handling of everything rona related I'm not sure why I'm a little surprised that the systems to implement a vaccine are lacklustre at best.

But from an accounting standpoint, inventory management standpoint, and sales thought process... If I know that people need two doses I'm going to hit them up when they're scheduling the first, or there for it, and get the second on the books.
