Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

If you're vaccinated, you're good to go. Live your life.

Willing to be fiscally/morally responsible for that advice?

Absolutely.

We need to get you some flakes, dude...

...easy. We know some people are more responsible and some are morons. Most of the Morons around here have gone

I am sick of watching people have to repeat the same lessons over and over again, yet never learn.

 

[monothingie]

Cool. So that means blood on your hands when you make it sound so simple and tell someone they are “good to go” and then they get infected anyway and die.

I’m vaccinated. I’m following the science. I’m not succumbing to irrational paranoia and fear mongering.

"COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. have dipped below 300 a day for the first time since the early days of the disaster in March 2020, while the drive to put shots in arms hit another encouraging milestone Monday: 150 million Americans fully vaccinated."

US hits encouraging milestones on virus deaths and shots

The U.S. has reached a pair of encouraging milestones as the COVID-19 pandemic’s grip on the nation continues to loosen.

Yesterday for the first time in a long time the average number of cases in the US went up. It was only an average of 105 cases but 2 states are now in double digits, 3 are at 9, 1 at 8, 2 at 7 and 4 at 6. That means 12 are at 6 or more and 39 are at 5 or less.

that’s a common frustration for most of us. Unfortunately you’re gonna keep running into that until this space rock we live on explodes.

You are….but to be fair - there are still too many fools who won’t do what they’re damn told and it puts all our “comfort” at risk.

Same. Except I follow all the science/evidence, not just the stuff I wish to be true.

@Tony the Tigger

Realism!

Absolutely! There can be positive and negative developments happening at the same time. There usually are.

To wit:

I can't be certain the United States would have been any more proactive in this circumstance.

I highly doubt there was much willingness to sink money into ventilators and PE prior to this.

Imagine the outcry from the populace if states and the feds spent millions/billions on stuff that just sat in warehouses unused?

Actually I can imagine it. “Why are you wasting money on this when it could be better spent on (insert program here).”

…you went “ole” on that one…

If Covid19 came from the lab, it does not mean it was a bioweapon. The leak most likely was a normal lab mistake. That is why experimenting like they do in China is illegal in the US. It is also why the CDC should never pay a foreign lab to conduct these experiments either. But in no case does proving it came from the lab prove it was a weapon.

There if scientific evidence that casts doubt on the idea that it leaked from a lab at all. There were actually two different lineages of the virus spreading early on and as discussed in the paper below, this is much more likely to have happened from a natural source then from a lab leak. The paper also points out the environmental samples showed that the virus was much more prevalent in the areas of the markets that sold animals, then in other areas, further supporting the idea that it came from an animal in a wet market.

And all these elitist politicians and media lied and are still lying to the people from the start of this virus . Proof is coming out fauchi e-mails where he knew it was a bioweapon that his NIH funded also knew masks were useless and covered that up too!!

The media an others really wanted there to be a bomb shell in those e-mails, but it turned out there really wasn't anything there.

yes they did…so when it didn’t happen, they just went ahead and rewrote the narrative.

[Heppenheimer]

Of course it’s entirely possible to disagree with both sides. The choice isn’t binary.

There shouldn't have been a "both sides" with regards to COVID-19.

Legitimate disagreements about policy responses are one thing, flat-out denial of accumulating evidence, and latching onto or encouraging fringe theories is a whole other ballgame.

Wasn’t my point but ok.

Or an infected lab worker doing some food shopping unwittingly transported the virus to the market in question. Possibilities (lots of them).
