This is despite places like bars / indoor dining being highlighted as one of the real world spots for new case creation.

no way dude, flu vax rates in a normal season are only like 40% (of adults, not even total pop).

i get that infant/childhood coverage is high, but there's a mental dividing line for people when it comes to their newborn kids

we'll hit the elbow in the covid vax curve, like every other country. won't be as soon as america, but probably not much different to the uk at around 60% fully vaxxed. there will be a long, long tail to get to 80%, nationally.

although the mass death will probably help motivate people

One thing, other than mass death, that could help push us to a high vax rate is that states and Feds here won't be afraid to implement vaccine passport measures like needing to be vaxxed to enter pubs and restaurants etc, travelling interstate and internationally, and we have centralised digital vax records to back it up

The Feds / Sleepy Joe won't do anything since it's part of the federalism ! Let states do what they think is best.

Sleepy Joe also thinks if he's nice to GOP base they will vote for democrats in the next elections.

Yeah about that ... the government lost my application to get a non-medicare vax record and then never followed up when they said they would. The only proof I have is some nurse's writing on a card, like a goddamned American or something.

And here they won't add your second dose to your original card because they don't want to touch it, so I lost a bunch of info about the exact dose I had.

The NSW open er up roadmap contains a tier where the restaurants are open for indoor dining but you can't have family gatherings. Because. And understand this really is the reason given. Because the businesses have the facilities and knowledge to ensure the safety of their guests but private family gatherings do not.

Wife is sick as hell but she tested positive for flu AND covid. Rapid test was poz

6 year old had a mild fever but it broke within 12 hours. Rapid test was neg

Toddler has been puking for the last 2 days with congestion with mild fever, we think he's puking because he has a headache so we're giving him Tylenol. He got a PCR test, waiting for results

The worst part is wondering if the kids will just start nosediving out of nowhere even though they're fine right now

i ordered from mastervlad, what's shipping time to the US like these days from RU, lol

skullmask is cool enough that i might just ditch my envomask; need to get more filters for my 3m mask.

edit: also I was an rear end in a top hat who never got flu shots until I had kids and my partner nudged me to look at the data on parental vaxx vs kid mortality, I did and that convinced me.

then COVID happened and I have been wondering "was I a carrier for infections that killed other people I never knew, that I could have avoided with a shot?"

i realize I'm not making myself sound very bright, okay, perhaps I am not, but that basic concept was never part of any messaging I got about flu shots, and I was too self absorbed and "young and healthy" to think about it any deeper until we were actually in a crisis

i bet that fucker is vaxxed, anyway. he pals around with Sam Harris, right? Harris sucks too much for me to give him any mental real estate but without checking I'd expect him to be on the right side of the vaxx issue
