Canada did 400,000 vaccines on friday
but I don’t even need it, confirmed immune and unable to spread, it’s science.
**some of this post may not be true
Well that pretty decent, I thought I had read on here from some of you guys that Canadia was moving really slow with them. We’ve gotten to a point here where the facilities have more jabs available than people asking for them. This week I heard about a couple friends that just showed up without appointment and got their jab in like 5 min. 2 months ago it was hard to get an appointment.
hopefully that means y’all can get back to life soon. Other than masking and distancing precautions, things are fairly normal here. Lots are still working remotely or homeschooling, but businesses are getting their groove back.

Have you ever thought about giving fishing seminars in Windsor, Ontario? The fishermen there could really use the help.
I just took my dog to the park and this coyote tried to mean mug me. As soon as it heard my door start to open it bolted.
Please stop posting city parks and nuisance creatures in the outdoor thread. Thanks in advance.
You’re a nuisance creature.
I dare you to do something about it.
You know I’m on parole.

@Grateful Dude I found some info from FWC (Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission) on the coral snake as well as how to distinguish most venomous snakes from non-venomous ones:
Most potent venom ?
With the Western Diamondback rattlers, the eyes/pupils and the pits are very east to spot. The head shape is different too (usually), venomous snakes have a more triangular shape while non-venomous are more rounded. But there are exceptions - like coral snakes don't have a triangular head, and some non-venomous snakes can flatten their head to look triangular.

Most potent venom ?
I just read that only the Black Mamba is the only snake with a more powerful venom. But corals don't really strike a pit viper, the bite and chew while releasing venom. A coral snake bite can disrupt the connections between the brain and muscles, resulting in slurred speech, double vision, and respiratory paralysis.
You may also find this interesting:
Antivenin is scarce and enormously costly - the only American manufacturer ceased production on 2003, and a finite amount of Mexican-produced antidote is held exclusively in Florida.

As much as I enjoy talking about nature with smart people like
@Grateful Dude, one problem with discussing these things publicly is that there are a lot of stupid people who read my posts:

It is moving very slowly.
I looked it up today and the page
I read said CA is 3% fully and about 30% with one dose.
Why the snail pace? Supply? Distribution/implementation logistics?
A coworker said she heard they were also making people wait longer than 4 weeks for second dose, is that true?
No vaccine production. Then under pressure from its member countries the EU brought in export bans on the vaccines. America, although having more vaccines than willing recipients wouldn't sell them off. So due to the shortage the government decided to vaccinate everyone once and then give out the second doses later. So yes, they have us going 4 months between doses.
What a clusterfuck. Is any of this improving or accelerating? Or is that just how it’s going to be for the long haul. I would like to think America will be able to start distributing as our vaccine numbers continue to get higher. Places are starting to have vaccines without all the appointments being claimed. I think we’re still moving at a good clip, but I also think people aren’t scrambling as much to get their appointment scheduled. Wait times are going down. No idea if the pace has slowed down or if we just have a lot more vaccines available now.

The pace has definitely slowed because demand has slowed.
We're currently at 46% one dose and 35% two doses. Biden said he wants to hit 70% one dose by July 4.
We're now at a point where Americans are simply declining to get vaccinated so now Diamond Joe will sell vaccines to Canada and Mexico. So it's improving here, but the politicians are too afraid of admitting the 4 month 2nd dose gap is a mistake so they're hanging in there with it, but hoping we get larger vaccine shipments and can shorten the window.
