My husband tried to pull #2 on me when I asked him to stay masked at indoor residency events. he said, “you know I work at a hospital right??” I asked, “oh, they got that same hospital HVAC system at [program director]’s house????  ”

Stereotype posted:hawaii will lock down again, they're considering a curfew now but that isn't going to do anything but we have to make absolutely sure that our lovely nonsense half measures without even a working theory are indeed worthless before we can try the thing we already know works. Last I heard about Hawaii it was from locals shouting at the top of their lungs to please stop going on vacation to Hawaii, we're full. Are they going to keep letting tourists in?

I got the J&J in March. Just got back from my second Pfizer. I am going to suck so much gently caress. Real talk tho, that was the most painless shot ever. I can't even tell where I was jabbed. If my arm isn't sore tomorrow, I'm gonna worry that I got bamboozled.

was smallpox endemic at some point? i keep hearing people saying "well it's too late now, covid is endemic and we can never get rid of it ever" and, that's super depressing and doom and also not true? i know the deer all have it or something, but i can't believe how quickly everyone gave up after doing essentially nothing. our entire nation is apparently an ungovernable mob of deluded self-important lazy idiots.

Der Meister posted:all this is happening and not a peep about a lockdown That's not going to happen. What we're doing now is an intentional exposure of everyone to Delta with the gamble being that it won't lead to widespread unrest and that it induces enough population immunity that covid becomes a background endemic disease with a death rate that can be normalized.

COVID doesn't burn out because it only kills a very small fraction of people. Delta is almost peak efficiency for virulence:lethality and its ability to infect literally everyone

the answer to "was <x> terrible virus endemic?" is usually no, it was lethal enough to burn itself out during epidemics.

Really only pay attention to them when they are immediately adjacent to critical structures like large vessels, spinal cord.

They want as big a labor pool as possible to keep costs down. They don't care about climate change since they have residences worldwide and will be the last people on earth to feel any consequences.

Yes but the development of the vaccinia-based vaccine which conferred sterilizing immunity coincided with the great public health campaigns of the 20th century and they were able to eradicate it. Neoliberal capitalism makes any public health measure beyond miniscule PR stunts impossible.

Stereotype posted:yeah but it's not their fault anymore. it's spreading all over the community and we don't really have any restrictions on anything. At some point it becomes the responsibility of the residents of an area to defend themselves. If the airlines won't stop bringing plague tourists to your island home, if your governor won't enforce two week quarantines on incoming visitors, if your state health authorities cannot stop contagion from spreading because new vectors are constantly being introduced to the population, then at some point drastic measures are merited. Or you can say, "it's not their fault anymore, they're helpless victims," when they are not actually helpless.
