Just signed up for a booster under a fake name. What should I do if my work mandates a booster? Get a fourth? Should I try to level with my vaccinator and tell them it's my third and ask them to just give it to me under my real name? Cancel this appointment and wait 3-4 weeks for my official booster eligibility?

how exactly are non covid colds spreading at all or am i just in a wfh/software area where people aren't horrendously going to brunch every single day for the last 8 months and completely treating this as never existing in the first place

everyone unmasked almost at once after a year of pretty strict and uniform masking. we were all pretty vulnerable to any respiratory disease since none had really spread much in the past months.

at least that's the excuse i've heard. i'm convinced at least like 30% of all the "it's just the summer cold" stuff is actual, undiagnosed covid

Well, that guy who got like 20 (or more) shots was fine, so you probably could just get a fourth if your job ends up requiring a booster.

The other day my wife let a neighbor that we were talking to in the driveway hold our baby because he put on a mask so it was safe.

A cloth mask, and the guy is vaxxed but followed CDC guidelines and has been acting like 2019 since May. We uh, did not agree on that.

the funny thing is a decent chunk of my coworkers are indian/asian and have either been through "2021 relatives back home with delta in fire pits" or "sars 1.0 epicentre hell", never stopped unmasking at any point in the pandemic including outdoors and started masking in jan 2020, and you can very clearly see a delineation between the people that have seen it before and the people that haven't

just be honest and say you got a booster sooner than they were authorized for reasons that are none of their loving business. maybe you have a health issue that prompted you to get a booster sooner than later, and you have the proof.

I do wonder if there are actual limits to DeSantis' "own the libs" politics. Like how fast do the bodies need to stack before people are like "wait... my dad coughing up blood doesn't own the libs at all!"

pretty sure this is the experiment being conducted right now. desantis is gauging floridians' reactions to full throated death cult fascism. sort of a pre-trial so he knows what he can get away with, when he becomes prez. he keeps leaning harder and harder on the controls to cause more death and suffering. in the background his loyal maga fans scream and cheer for more, and literally threaten death to those who oppose him in any fashion, irl or online

Higher education vax mandate by October 18. Employees only, though. Not students. Dunno if it covers private institutions.

And "religious reasons" for exemptions.
