My understanding is that america is the only country in the world that puts doctors on such a ridiculous pedastal that they are gods among mere mortals analogous to c suites. In England the doctors put in loving peripheral IVs. If you asked a doctor in america to do that you'd get the same reaction as if you just told them to get in there and clean the poo poo off that cdiff patient. Utterly beneath them.

This may or may not help the thread understand where MadJackal mindset comes from. Feudal lord bishops that graciously provide healing services to the peasantry at their convenience.

t plus one day, moderna booster: actually feeling some side effects, which i didn't with the first two shots (second shot was early feb).

i am hoping this is because i'm in much better shape than i was six months ago, and not because i somehow caught covid in the last couple of months (i get sick a lot, thus my booster eligibility). perhaps my immune system was already yoked for a fight.

it's a weird mix between a moderate hangover and a mild concussion. not too bad. just interesting to get a response on only the third dose (or maybe it's not interesting, i'm thinking as i write this)

oh well just post

school board meetings are descending into chaos. i hope video of this one surfaces soon: https://apnews.com/article/health-louisiana-education-coronavirus-pandemic-fb5400ad8724c2b733d35fbd4d6eae72

quote:

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana’s top school board abruptly ended a chaotic meeting Wednesday without debating whether to challenge Gov. Bel Edwards’ mask mandate for schools, after a raucous crowd of angry parents packed the hearing room and refused to put on face coverings.

The Board of Elementary and Secondary Education’s meeting disintegrated into shouting of “no more masks” as a majority of the hundreds of people in attendance objected when told they must mask up to comply with Edwards’ order, which includes state buildings.

At one point, board members exited the hearing room and controversial pastor Tony Spell, who has repeatedly refused to follow the governor’s previous coronavirus restrictions, began preaching. Others gave testimonials about their opposition to mask-wearing. When board members returned to the tumultuous scene, they urged the crowd to follow the order, to no avail.

“We desire to hear from you and to have this discussion,” said board President Sandy Holloway, as she urged people to wear masks in the room.

But she was greeted with outcry from the audience, with one person screaming: “Don’t infringe on our rights!”

Rather than try to enforce the face covering requirement amid the resistance, the board voted 8-2 to adjourn the hearing. The crowd erupted into shouting about recall efforts for board members, who were escorted out by law enforcement officers.

there is almost certainly going to be a firearm incident or shooting at a board meeting this year

She's pro-mask I think because she believes they do actually help, but more importantly two masked children 3' apart with one of them spewing delta doesn't count as a close contact, so nobody needs to quarantine and schools can keep on chugging.
