All right, this winter I will do my Chinese every day, and I will see how low I can get my body fat percentage. And I will declutter and populate the house with plants. And work on getting that greywater system installed. And find some new recipes. And hope my kid doesn't bring covid home from school.

Anyone seen Osprey lately?

quote:

Is there a minimum interval between administering routine vaccines and COVID-19 vaccines?

No. You may administer COVID-19 vaccine and other vaccines without regard to timing. This includes simultaneous administration of COVID-19 vaccine and other vaccines (including live, attenuated vaccines such as the measles-mumps-rubella [MMR] vaccine) on the same day, as well as coadministration at any time interval. It is unknown whether reactogenicity of COVID-19 vaccine is increased with coadministration, including with other vaccines known to be more reactogenic, such as adjuvanted vaccines or live vaccines.

ngl I kind of hate the "it'd just take a month!" take that crops up all the time in this thread too

Doing anything useful would take longer than a month. Everything is way too out of control and we'd need to absolutely squash community transmission to have a chance of coming out clean on the other side, even with a drastically increased vaccination drive. It would absolutely take several months of very real restrictions to break through the low simmering infection floor in the US. We'd probably also have to commit to shorter, localized lockdowns for at least another year or two.

good thing we don’t have to worry about what kind of lockdown is most effective since there will never be any type of lockdown

No joke, this is how I imagined the transport would work. It's pretty funny that a half-baked idea that comes to you while you're taking a dump is more sensible than what actually played out in reality, but there you go

Added some more minimalist UI for the covid simulator. I also added the option to mask or vaccinate your character ( don't have any cool sprites for it yet). I also added some little updates in the bottom corner as things go on mostly for fun

I'm all for caring for the unvaccinated by choice morons on this mortal plane, but discharging another patient that presumably still needed hospital level care? gently caress em, do better triage. The care of the sensible should not be thrown under the bus of morons.
