What’s the deal with opening schools? There’s been protests outside my apartment every weekend about opening K-12 schools. I assumed they were idiot covid deniers, but the local chatter online from them is the exact opposite, calling out idiots not wearing masks and fighting against anti-vaxxers, while insisting that “the science” says opening schools doesn’t increases cases.

had a patient's caretaker come in to get a replacement antibiotic for levaquin because the patient had an adverse reaction, i asked the nature of the adverse reaction so i could document it on her file and turns out the patient went after the caretaker with a knife because her fluoroquinolone caused drug induced psychosis

also had a guy tell me he couldn't take mexilitine because it literally made him want to kill his wife

Adverse reaction: Stabbing

If I went into a hospital and asked a nurse to inject me, and they agreed, what are the chances that it will be the covid vaccine? Is it worth it? Just asking questions...

I’m so loving excited for a normal 4th of July where there is totally not going to be anyone dying of COVID and everyone is vaccinated and everyone has their jobs back and with higher wages and rent and bills for the last year have all been forgiven, and all those dead people are brought back to life.

You have it slightly wrong. The lifting of the mask mandate should've been tied to population vaccination rate. If we hit 80% vaccination rate, no more masks, let the fuckers who opted out choke on their own lung juices.

Yup, that’s totally 100% how vaccines and immunity works.

Avoid making out with the dentist just to be safe.

If the painters and insulation people you work with weren't already wearing respirators then they also go to Applebee's and thus aren't worth considering.

How do people like her not understand that everything we're doing to stop the spread is not just because we're concerned for our own personal safety? The way out of this has always been vaccines and stopping spread with distancing.

A lot of people are completely convinced that if they are vaccinated they will almost surely not get COVID and on the off chance they do get COVID it'll be no worse than a minor cold and there is zero chance of it being any worse than that and I don't wanna jump to conclusions or anything but I think our public messaging might be poo poo.

Are the statistics of approx. 0.002% vaccinated hospitalization rates not accurate?

Sorry, I haven't been keeping up about how every single number is made up and wrong.

The CDC says breakthrough rates will be undercounted, so I won't even speak to their numbers. Do you have a source that describes how bad breakthrough cases really are?

I was saying when the news came out that I was worried about getting harassed or assaulted or whatever for continuing to wear a mask, and I'm pretty sure some people thought I was crazy

And this is with my building saying masks are still mandatory. I'm just going to resort to saying "You don't want to get in the elevator with me. I'm contagious, and it's not covid."

I had the somewhat nice realization while I was grabbing groceries today that in a month or so after all mask mandates are revoked my attitude will be able to change from "The minimum bar is wearing a mask in public. I know who the truly terrible people are, but not much else," to "Anyone not wearing a mask could be a terrible person, but the people wearing masks might be cool!"
