Re: COVID is getting worse
I wonder why no one is bothering to fact check Trump's repeated lies about the H1N1 vaccine "nightmare." He keeps talking about how the COVID vaccine is developed in "record time." This is nonsense. The H1N1 virus made its presence in late April of 2009 and within just five months the FDA approved ...

Re: COVID is getting worse
We flattened the curve. The hospitals are not overrun. Don't get me wrong. I wear a mask. The staff wears a mask. I haven't seen a patient who didn't wear a mask since we went back to work 5 months ago. I'd wear a mask even if it did little more than ease the patients mind. But it can also be a fal...

Re: Biden Takes Georgia; Violence on Horizon
Sheep or sheeple is pretty mild compared to what I've seen. Check out some of the rhetoric around this weekend's Million MAGA march.

Re: Pandemic: Life on the ground
We got our warning yesterday. I’m not optimistic. Not optimistic about what? Compliance? I actually welcome the restrictions. I strongly believe that we need them right now in order to carry us to the point where vaccines become available. It's possible that periodically upgrading restrictions then...

Re: Biden Takes Georgia; Violence on Horizon
Res, I appreciate your message; it's not falling on deaf ears. It feels more like an optimistic philosophy than what's really true, but I think I understand the spirit of it. At the very least, I think it comes from an honest and good place. I've been thinking for years that humans are kind of funn...

Re: Remember the National Debt?
I agree that Ajax is creating his own unhappiness. But he doesn't deserve that. No one does. I feel no joy when his unhappiness shows in his posting. I mostly feel bad for him. You have a good heart, Res. I don't wish unhappiness on ajax. I can't say for absolute sure he is unhappy. We're only judg...

Re: COVID is getting worse
This is all particularly disturbing because I thought we were doing pretty good with the whole mitigation thing. Everywhere I go, people are wearing masks. lol. It's a virtue signal and wearing a mask is about as much as we can do. Surely you understood that it didn't make much of a difference. Wel...

Re: COVID is getting worse
And here it comes. Ok Res Ipsa, I'll admit that if this is where we're headed I'm very unhappy. We're going to waste a tremendous amount of money only to delay the inevitable. I can't believe you communists are so focused on the 0.04% that you're forgetting the collective good. A notional lockdown ...
