Covid was so bad in one NC jail that the state is releasing 3500 low level criminals to settle a lawsuit about their rights being violated quote:If a Wake County Superior Court judge approves the settlement agreement and the state abides by its commitment to trim about one-eighth of its more than 28,000-person prison population, the North Carolina branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People would dismiss its lawsuit alleging prison conditions during the coronavirus pandemic have violated inmates' rights under the state constitution.

lol “The restrictions have been lifted in Iowa, our unemployment is back down near 3 percent. We’re out of the pandemic. There are people who are troubled, who are sick, we are still seeing the effects, but the unemployment has moved back to near where we were pre-pandemic.” — Iowa State Sen. Jason Schultz, R-Schleswig, said during a meeting on reducing unemployment benefits in Iowa.

My company has extended the office COVID plan through March, but now they're planning on openerup April 5th, because cases are trending down. Reevaluate in 2 weeks. Goddamn I love how they can't just commit to a damned thing. This is the first time they actually committed to anything for more than two weeks. I'm looking forward to getting more close calls this year

My roommate had her entire spine straightened out, and that's a long recovery process that I don't recommend on anyone. We're just thankful she got it done in 2019 before the world went to hell. We were lucky that she ended up in a nursing home near my work, so I could visit her for lunch and dinner every day, I don't even want to know what it would have been like if I couldn't have come to visit.

RIP to me... My workplace finally did the shoveling people back this month (We need more to face to face meetings!) and sent out emails how all the proper controls were in place like social distancing / Re-design of office spaces. When I visiting my workplace a year later (lol) the whole workplace layout was essentially the same like 4-5 people being packed into a cube layout.

She, like just about everyone else at my work, doesn't wear a mask until someone is in visual range. When she has a day off, the guy who runs document control does it, and he's always there on time and at the desk, and always wearing a mask.

I got fired once for taking a sick day as a server and not having anyone to cover (I just didn't want to work that day), but the guy who fired me didn't have the authority, so the guy who did called me like a week later and said I could come back if I wanted to (I went back).

Allegheny County is pushing a mandatory paid sick leave law and the news stations are tripping over themselves to interview small business tyrants who are threatening to leave because 2 hours of paid leave per 80 hours worked would ruin them. gently caress small business tyrants.

line cutting is a moral imperative when the vaccine rollout is done in order of “whoever can refresh the CVS website quickest”. the key is to help at risk people line cut, too, though. help some old geezers out on Facebook, there’s a zillion vaccine hunter groups. the one in my city has 90,000 members which tells you how loving confusing this rollout is.

Just interviews with small business dickheads. Local news are absolute scum. Something like 2/3 of the teachers in my city's district said they wanted to remain fully remote at least until they've all received their second dose. They also staged a protest outside of city hall on the day in-person classes were supposed to start. What do all the local news stations do? Run articles about how awesome it is that schools are reopening where they interview the handful of teachers they could find saying how happy they are to be back. Not one loving mention of the protest or the fact that a large majority of teachers didn't want to return.

It's real and it's a consequence of every state in this hell country using trends and positivity rates instead of absolute case numbers as a basis for policy. We don't have nearly the vaccination rates that we'd need to make a dent. The number is going to go back up.
