How contagious is it?

We will find out soon. Last go around I understand they had 300 infected and 100 of those died. Also they took it seriously enough to kill 1 million pigs.

The media is again stovepiping fascism

Yeah, it's the same group of insane people who go to every school board meeting in mostly white areas, hooting and hollering, and the media keeps giving them uncritical airtime instead of just mentioning that they're loving morons and moving on. It's infuriating.

quote:

At least 25 students and a few parents were protesting outside the entrance to Greater Latrobe Senior High this morning.

“I feel students have the right to choose whether they want to wear a mask or not,” said senior Spencer Bowman, who organized the protest. “I started wearing a mask in 10th grade.

“I feel I’ve wasted most of my high school career. I really just want to have a taste of normalcy before I leave.”

He's going to bars three times a week and all the talk about a deadly disease is making him feel bad. Like every other shitlib, the disease no longer exists for him and he doesn't want to be reminded that people are dying.

September 20th is a week and a half away and as far as I know there's been almost no clarification beyond Biden announcing and the FDA bitching about it.

I am going to be beyond angry if he backs off of it because it does not harm anyone if people get booster shots, society has left us to fend for ourselves so at least let us fend for ourselves.

the clinic I go to for primary care has taken a solid "gently caress all y'all equivocating, the data is clear" stance and are doing boosters at 6 months, Pfizer and Moderna, no special circumstances or qualifications required.

it varies across the state

43k tho with a masters at step 10 (I assume) sounds low for even Pa . that means they are starting people at 35 or so which seems kind of unbelievable

might be the case in coal country

This is definitely not a lie



Here in Canada, on a MS Teams call with my work, my manager loudly wide-smiled proclaims her children are finally back at school. My supervisor echoes the sentiment and says she's relieved to have them back so she can get some nice quiet work done. Everyone is grinning and smiling. I feel like a loving alien.

Anyway here's a cat
