thewhyteboar Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Microchips have also been a thing for years with some evangelical groups. They fear that they will be microchipped by the government and the scar left behind or the chip itself will be the mark of the beast. And of course, there is a ton of overlap between QAnon and evangelicals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitizenVectron Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I guess my city is overrun with the B117 variant, the assumption is that over 90% of cases are suspected. The rest of my province has seen a big drop over the last month, but my city has remained high (50-60 cases per day, pop 280,000). Lots of cases in schools, too, though the districts are insisting there is no spread inside the classroom. Of course. However, that is why my city got 100% of the surprise AstraZeneca shipment, so at least the province is dealing with it (though they also lifted some restrictions last week...)

CitizenVectron Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Meanwhile, not being dummies, Canada expands the use of AstraZeneca to all people (including 65+), citing real-world proof that it is safe for all ages: NACI says AstraZeneca vaccine now recommended for use on seniors WWW.CJME.COM OTTAWA — The National Advisory Committee on Immunization says there is now enough "real-world evidence" to show the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine is both safe and effective for seniors. The decision reverses a recommendation made by the body on M... Quote Health Canada's Chief Medical Adviser Dr. Supriya Sharma said last week there is no biological evidence that would show how the vaccine could cause blood clots. The company said a study of more than 17 million patients who received the vaccine did not identify any blood clots that were caused by the vaccine, and Thrombosis Canada also issued a statement saying the vaccine was safe. Also, this interest tidbit from Canadian government analysis of real-world data: Quote She says while the clinical trial data show the two mRNA vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna were more effective than AstraZeneca's, the data on the vaccines since they began being widely used shows similar levels of effectiveness.

ort Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 If they can stick to this pace, where like 3+ million shots are going into arms every day, we can be out of this mess pretty dang fast in my opinion. I know all the Fauci nerds of the world are all like... "we have to wear masks until the end of the year and blah blah blah..." I don't think it's gonna happen. We're gonna be sucking and fucking in the streets in like 2 months because people are sick of this shit and ready to get back to real life. I'm not saying being overly cautious isn't the correct move, I'm just saying, Americans aren't gonna do that. If they see people aren't dying anymore and the numbers are down, it's gonna be hard to convince people to continue with all of these precautions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneticBlueprint Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 My wife was able to receive her first dose a week ago. She used to work at a dentist's office as an assistant. She still goes in to work once in a while for a day here or there. So her boss got her a note. That was cool. I still don't think I'll be able to get it until the last group, however.

The data keeps streaming in and looking better and better that vaccinated people are 90% protected from transmitting the virus. Once vaccinations slow down in June as most of the very willing people have had both doses, it’s over. The government will have to change tactics toward incentivizing the holdouts.

Summer 2021 will be back to normal for the majority of states. I mean you look at at the Bloomberg website and the US overall will get to 75% in five months at the rate of 2.4mm shots per day on a 2 dose vaccine(a number which is steadily increasing). That's august! Virginia is 4 months to 75%, and Georgia is 7 months! Those are the best and worst I've seen, and doesn't really account for the one shot J&J! States like VA might be in great shape by Late April or May if you combine reasonable restrictions on gathering, masking, and vaccine distribution with the ability to finally test and trace known cases. Summer is looking better and better every day. 9 minutes ago, Chris- said: PA’s is literally just a GIS map with a bunch of contact information. Absolutely worthless. Wow.

Unless the site you're using lets you make a profile and you can store your insurance information ahead of time, I'd say don't bother inputting your insurance if it's making you type it in every time since it increases the likelihood that you wind up missing out on an appointment from going too slow, just click the button saying you don't have any so it lets you skip that part. You can always try to provide it later if you really want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The myturn.ca.gov site has been shit up with showing you a bunch of places like CVS and Safeway where it doesn't actually tell you directly on the myturn.ca.gov site whether or not there's appointments. It's pretty atrocious right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
