In today's Tales from the ICU, I was updating a spouse on a patient's condition (spoiler alert: it's bad):

Me: It says here he didn't get the vaccine, is that right?
Wife: Yes that's right
Me: How come?
Wife: Our family is just not going that route
Me: Why's that?
Wife: We know people that got it and had really bad side effects
Me: Don't you think being in the ICU is worse than some side effects?
Wife: You know you're putting all these chemicals inside your body and you don't know how your body is going to react! And we don't want to be test dummies for the government. Should we pray for him?
Me: Yes.

HOO BOY, is that a time gap from "his condition is bad" to "he got tubed and died." August 2nd to today. Lotta misery for a lot of people in there, including the people keeping him alive.

Yeah, Michigan is basically a Trumper state, and as soon as Biden got elected Whitmer did a complete 180 on her COVID management. MI is basically following the same protocols as Florida at this point. When all the schools are open next week it's going to be a bloodbath here. Michigan had a huge surge of vaccinations early on but it's been almost nonexistent since May.

It's gonna be a rough fall.

Do you have a Japanese residence permit? Then take a vacation and come back to the US for a month to get vaxxed twice. Just don't go out.

Back in March my sister was posting bar room dance vids and I asked if it was a good idea to be partying when the people behind the bar were unvaccinated and she lost her loving mind at me. Gotta wonder what's going to happen to her and her husband (45 year old with a pacemaker) in the coming days.

It was never possible for most people to really hunker down and it's even less possible now. I'm back to being incredibly worried about my mom and my partner's parents because none of them have the option to just hide out at home this time around, and no help is coming.

The usual. Holding super-spreader "MUH FREEDUMBS!!!" ... "Don't vaxx me!!" ... "Masks are a sham!!" etc. idiot rallies.
Usually around crowded train stations. Some of them also get in your face because you have a mask.

One such rally they even called "The Superspreader Rally" and it was just oodles of unmasked chuds running into crowded trains shouting at people how Corona was a sham. lmao

Some are now getting into miracle cures/horse paste... lmao

Basically some medical bureaucrat suggested it.

Here is (sadly only in Japanese / use google translate to get an idea) a article from the NHK (the national television) basically imploring people to "Please don't eat the horse paste" lmao:
