I understand that, but the poster didn’t mention politics at all in that statement. You did.

Thanks for the update.
Yep as a person who used to get 2 allergy shots in both arms twice a week, a sore and feverish arm is quiet normal indeed. Its an annoyance but nothing more than that

C'mon man. There's a lot wrong with Democrats (and Republicans), but if you can't comprehend the significance of what happened yesterday, you're lost. I'm generally conservative in my views, but the fringe radicals in the Republican party lost a ton of support from most people I know yesterday. Good luck winning on the Trump platform. Time to burn it down and start over.

Glad to hear you got it and it's a normal reaction for you compared to most vaccines!
More than half of Covid spread comes from people without symptoms
About 17.3 million vaccine doses have been distributed to states, while 5.3 million people have received an initial dose, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

More than half of Covid spread comes from people without symptoms
Nearly 60 percent of all Covid-19 spread may come from people with no symptoms, according to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published Thursday in the journal JAMA Network Open.Using mathematical modeling, CDC researchers estimated that 35 percent of Covid-19 spread is from people who are contagious before they develop symptoms, called presymptomatic transmission. Another 24 percent comes from people who are truly asymptomatic, and never go on to develop symptoms.
Such widespread asymptomatic transmission means that simply identifying and isolating people who have symptoms of Covid-19 "will not control the ongoing spread of SARS-CoV-2," the virus that causes Covid-19, the study authors wrote.
Rather, the findings mean that everyday behaviors to mitigate the spread of the virus are even more critical.
"Measures such as wearing masks, hand hygiene, social distancing and strategic testing of people who are not ill will be foundational to slowing the spread," the study authors wrote, "until safe and effective vaccines are available and widely used."

I have a feeling this is a contributing factor to the spread in LA.

Those numbers don't seem to be getting any better. What concerns me is with Covid fatigue its going to get worse.

It makes me a little bit angry that on CNN, which likes to present itself as the more august, responsible news network, a siginficant portion of the adverts while I was watching updates on the riots this morning were for travel destinations. Not exactly responsible during a pandemic, but I guess money is the most important thing even now.

Man, we gotta do a better job of getting needles in arms. People were definitely right when they said the vaccine supply wouldn't be the limiting factor, logistics would be.
My cousin’s father in law is dying from covid. They live in SC where the positivity rate is around 30%. He and his wife are anti maskers and hoax believers so they weren’t taking precautions.
Let me be clear- Nobody deserves this- nobody deserves to die a horrible death. Nobody.
I DO get angry at the fact that it didn’t HAVE to happen. He didn’t HAVE to get sick. From leadership all the way down to his personal actions this could have been prevented.
He exhibited symptoms Christmas Eve after attending a church bible study group with no distancing and no masks. A woman attended even though she knew she was covid positive (which debunks the whole ‘sick people will adhere to the guidelines and stay home’ theory). He was rushed by ambulance to the hospital after struggling to breathe with oxygen down in the 80’s.
It was too late for that drug with an R? He was on oxygen supplementation but would not rest or stop talking like the doctors asked him to. The other night his oxygen went down to the 60’s and they couldn’t get it back up. They ventilated him at that point. He was fighting the tube so they sedated him.
Last night his kidneys stopped functioning. Other organs are showing signs of following. They told my cousin and her family to be prepared.
Luckily she had not gone over there with her child because the mother and father in law were not willing to take the precautions. I’m so grateful they were vigilant in their precautions so they didn’t get sick too.
He has prior conditions. He’s 70 years old, 400lbs, and a diabetic.
His wife has since apologized to her son and my cousin saying that she wishes they had been more cautious and not believed it was a hoax and that she’d never wish it on anyone. (Yes she was + too but mild)
This whole situation is a dumpster fire. Florida is on fire. I can’t WAIT for some true leadership in 2 weeks

I can't watch anything on YouTube without getting a 90-second ad for visiting Canada. Did the Canadian tourism board forget that they don't want us coming over the border???? Also, I find the ad incredibly annoying even without the dissonance between their ad and their policies so I just skip it as soon as I can.

A few days old news article (may be a bit redundant to other past posts):
www.clickorlando.com
Johnson & Johnson will be up for EUA probably in February.
Right now I just want to hear that Florida has successfully administered the shots it is receiving. I hope they are figuring out how to ramp that up, since having a dose of a vaccine in state is not the end goal, rather its having it in the arms of citizens.
Governor announces plans to ramp up COVID-19 vaccination efforts throughout Florida
To kick off the new year and the state’s fourth week of administering COVID-19 vaccines, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced plans on Monday to double down on vaccination efforts statewide.

What would be great for Disney Public Relations and Employee moral is for Disney to figure out how many cast member (and perhaps on-property subcontractors) it can vaccinate on a daily basis with the resources it can guarantee to have on property. If that number would imply a long time to get all cast members vaccinated, then they should offer some cast members training on administering the shots [The state should specify the minimum amount and type of training to administer a vaccine], to increase the throughput. (Of course they need a small set of professionals to deal with the rare allergic reaction, but non-professional can be given training to do some of the basic work of administering vaccines).
Would be great PR to say that Disney facilitated it's cast members being vaccinated, that all it needs is the doses and state approval, that they are ready to help themselves, their community, and the state succeed in administering vaccine when it is available. Proactive vs reactive.
