I couldn’t find any normal masks to wear, so on went the respirator. It was somebody (maskless) selling something, and he looked incredibly surprised and took like 10 fast steps backwards when I answered the door looking like Bane. It was funny as hell.

The Conversation had a breakdown of the outcomes of Australia's covid cases. It's probably quite a good indication because we've been doing a huge amount of contact tracing so it's unlikely that too many asymptomatic and mild cases are going undetected and skewing the results. Since it's data from Jan 2021 it will be influenced by the vaccination of a lot of older and more vulnerable people, I imagine it would look a lot worse for a completely unvaccinated population.

On the flip side, if you have uncontrolled spread of Delta then a shutdown will help control it while a vax passport system will not and will probably just contribute to breakthrough transmissions.

My overly impressionable cop friend who moved to Texas because the rural Oregon coast was “too liberal” posted an Instagram story that said “Kate Brown wants you to call the police on your neighbors who don’t wear masks, don’t do that, the police have better things to worry about” Except Kate Brown was describing it the same way people who have loud parties have the cops called on them if people ignore mask mandates in public Oh and it was last November when this was said, so I guess my friend saw some old rear end Facebook post and got in a tizzy It sucks seeing friends disappear into a malaise of social media cop-brain Covid denialism

I started reading an article I suspected was antivax out of curiosity because it was supposedly well researched and well written. The first line used the term "decimate" incorrectly, but I thought that was just me being picky so I kept on with it, then in the next paragraph it started talking about Native Americans performing child sacrifice. Guys, I'm starting to think even the best antivaxers are not the critical thinking geniuses they claim to be. Edit: this article is just really really bad. Apparently over 15 million people have been infected in New York City. Marmaduke! fucked around with this message at 11:00 on Aug 26, 2021 |

stab posted:Unvaccinated people will be barred from doing anything deemed non-essential in Quebec. Yeah. I maintain that mandates with actual teeth, like this, will move most of the unvaxxed in the U.S. into the vaxxed column. It's easy to be a contrarian rear end in a top hat when it doesn't actually cost you anything other than increased risk of Covid which you don't really believe in anyway. The percentage of people who will be willing to stay unvaxxed when it means they can't be employed or go to a restaurant is a lot smaller than those who are currently unvaxxed.

Yeah that's the point. Those of us who did the right thing and got vaccinated have no appetite for another full lockdown just to keep 18% of the population from overfilling the ICUs. If everything was open and everyone was vaccinated we'd still have spread but it would be more limited and it wouldn't matter because such a small number of people would end up in the hospital. Ontario currently has about 150 people in ICU for COVID and something like 7 of those are fully vaccinated. And we have 75% of people 12+ fully vaxxed.

Probably although it’s a bad statistic because it doesn’t tell you if child cases are increasing or adult cases are decreasing. The population of adults who aren’t vaccinated and haven’t already gotten it once is rapidly declining.

My school district is (currently) making masks optional. They had an open forum discussion on Tuesday about this. Here are some paraphrased points from the anti-masking crew: "Why are we living in fear? The Devil makes fear. My children will NOT be afraid." "Masks do not work because I can still smell this room. How can a mask stop a virus if it can't stop a smell?!?!?" "I don't have any children here but it breaks my heart to see children's faces covered." (I hope someone is investigating this woman) "If kids were REALLY in the hospital, we'd see this ALLLL over CNN. Don Lemon would LOVE to report on this!" So these first few weeks of school are going to be insane.
