or i wonder if this is a war between CDC and FDA now

CDC whiffs the ball and comes out and says "yeah we think boosters after 8 months are good, that makes us look competent still"

FDA looks at the data and says "lol no we need them 6 months, they are already late"

LMAO the entire administration is so clown show incompetent and trying to cover their asses

God, and with no hospital space available and triage, there will be a lot of untallied COVID related deaths.

I legit wonder how many will die before this pandemic is over. I am convinced American might lose 1-2 million alone at this point. My pessimistic brain even thinks more. But I am also thinking it won't be over 2025. And that's just America.

i got my moderna booster over the weekend. i scheduled online with CVS and checked the immunocompromised checkbox. i actually have something that could maybe, kind of qualify, (but probably not?) so I brought some paperwork on it but was never asked about anything. they just gave me the booster with no questions asked. from what i've read here people seem to have better luck scheduling beforehand online rather than walking in. good luck!

duly noted hoping to schedule during the labor day week which would be 4 1/2 months past shot 2

IHME excess death forecast has us at a bit over 1.1 million right now: https://covid19.healthdata.org/united-states-of-america?view=cumulative-deaths&tab=trend

after a rocky start they have been pretty trustworthy and correct with that death model. it predicted 250k dead in the fall surge and nailed it.

we'll probably come out of this pandemic after 5 total years or so and see 3-5 million dead total. that's just a rough 1.5% CFR times the entire 330M population of the country and so far we're tracking almost precisely to that even with vaccines and such

Enforcing IP restrictions on the vaccine should put the entire Trump and Biden administration up for trial in the Geneva convention for crimes against humanity. I can't imagine how much better things would be if the Vaccine didn't have IP protections in place.

I expected exactly this thing. Historically, humans don't deal well with disease. Some assholes just ruin poo poo for everyone else.

If we were rational as a species, we could destroy covid in 40 days with lockdowns. However if we were rational, we would be eradicating diseases left and right. No more STD's, no more polio, no more measles, mumps or rubella. Gone from the earth. Poof. Go a little father and if we were rational there would be no war or famine. We wouldn't destroy our environment or have threatened the world multiple times with nuclear annihilation.

We're not rational. And as a group we're frequently pretty dumb and irrational. A lot of people, in fact most of them, don't know how to assess risk.

That’s part of it, but an equally large part imo is that self-best-interest and group-best-interest often do not indicate the same behavior. Many of these assholes are acting rationally, but selfishly.
