Rumor has it Disney is capitalizing on the opportunity with a special Cicada and Booze Festival at Epcot. Collectors magic band, popcorn buckets, and cupcakes will be available to enhance that magical memory.

This is a slightly silly but true story. I went to physical therapy today and there is one employee there who is 21 years old and is the only person not vaccinated in the building. Every time I go I give him a hard time about not getting the shot yet. He had Covid this year so he isn’t really worried about it but he knows he needs to get it eventually. It’s a good natured relationship. Anyway today I went in and he said “guess what you’re going to be so proud of me! I got my first shot.” And I was like “oh yeah is that because you can finally take your mask off if you get it?”And he said “no I have a friend whose mom will not let any of us come over to their lake house until we have the shot. Summer is here and we need to be able to use the lake!”
moms unite to get these lazy college boys to the clinic!

Can’t wait! Also see a ton of outdoor masks in the photo. Was this today?

Yes about 15 mins ago. I’d say there’s still at least 30% wearing outside. It’s a super nice night so maybe if it were uncomfortable it would be a bit lower.

Or maybe slimy yet satisfying?
So good to see.
As the week closes so does the daily reported cases of over 30,000 a day in the US. Today is a great day, the US is now averaging 28,933 cases a day and dropped 4% in one day. The average number of cases per 100,000 is now 8.73. There are now only 15 states with cases of 11 to 16. Yes, the top two states for cases are Michigan and Maine are down to 16 cases per 100,000. With 10 days left in the month how many of those 15 states will be left at 11 or above on June 1? Better yet what day will the US fall below 20,000 cases a day? When will the CDC finally admit we broke the back of Covid19? As for Florida. I am still disappointed with Florida's average of 2,839 cases or 13 per 100,000. I know it's improvement but slower than it should be.

Just looking at Indiana vaccination rates this morning, noticed they have added breakthrough cases that will be updated every Thursday. (Currently at .05%)
Any other states reporting these now?

My parents registered for the Ohio vaxamillion lottery. They let us know that if they won, they will split the money evenly among all their vaccinated children and grandchildren.
(It still likely won't sway my sister and step-sister, but who knows.)

We all agreed if we won in my family we’d share with each other too. Got to love the dream! LolMy parents registered for the Ohio vaxamillion lottery. They let us know that if they won, they will split the money evenly among all their vaccinated children and grandchildren.

I read that the CDC is not tracking any breakthrough that does not result in hospitalization or death any longer. Haven't checked Georgia's site specifically to see if they even track that, but imagine they all do.
Many people are resistant because of potential side effects, which mean they have to plan on having some downtime - times 2 - after getting the shot. So lost days where they will be staying at home because they are sick. So they are checking calendars to see if the stars will align, without finding a convenient time to be sick.
At some point when cases stay flat, we don't need to be tracking any cases that don't result in hospitalizations and death to the extent we do now - meaning we don't need a daily report from each state.
Hoping that part ends soon.

I can't wait until the pandemic is FINALLY over in USA this year. I can go back to normal as no more masks and social distancing for good. Also nice normal summer.

Agreed, that‘s partially why I suspect the doses have been much higher towards the end of the week and on the weekends since appointments became readily available. That’s also why I’m optimistic that we still get a number north of 70% of adults vaccinated. It will just take some time, but we will get there

COVID is still a reportable disease, so they are tracking these cases... but they might not necessarily have a rigorous database that is able to identify if the case represents vaccine breakthrough.
