Looking at this graph, I'm more confused now about what is a "wave", exactly? because looking at the whole thing, it seems like part of the same wave to me

Is a wave just "We collectively forget about it for a bit until hospitals overflow again" ?

The peaks. Spring 2020, Summer 2020, Holiday 2020, and now Summer 2021.

It's amazing how things right now are at least twice as bad as they were last summer when tons of people are taking things seriously, and yet so many people are acting like nothing's wrong.

Granted, I live in a deeply red state, but most events here are back at full capacity. The last three Fridays the high school up the hill from my house had home football games, and the photos I saw on the local Facebook showed people packed shoulder-to-shoulder with not a mask in sight.

If COVID was bad enough to cancel the football season last fall, why is it not now, with case/death rates twice as high (and probably fewer people getting tested)? Our state is at like 35% vaccinated, so it's not that.

I think this has to do with the people who take covid seriously being already vaccinated. There isn't a political incentive to impose restrictions on the pro-covid crowd right now. They certainly don't support any, and people in the anti-covid crowd don't really care if unvaccinated people decide to kill themselves off at the end of the day. All that's left is the desire of the vaccinated to not get covid from the unvaccinated, which (for now) is not extremely likely.

Heroin addicts inject themselves with all kinds of unknown poo poo. Is there any instance of one of them injecting something that causes no immediate reaction but causes them to suddenly drop dead several years later? As far as I know if you get injected with something, you will react to it almost immediately, and either survive from that or die. You don't just have some dormant substances lodged in your spine ready to precipitate into your bloodstream and kill you when you pick up the mail.

A bunch of them think vaccinated people will become literal flesh-eating zombies within the next few years, there's no way to rationalize that.

They're almost certainly going to revisit this, since *everyone* else in the world is already doing boosters. Since Im a computer toucher and have returned to isolating I feel good that they'll approve boosters by the time my 8mos past 2nd dose have passed. If not, "This is my first shot" seems to unlock those doors.

Sorry to all the essential workers being thrown into the pit of Moloch.
