She described it as one of the mildest illnesses she’s ever had, though her senses of taste and smell have not returned to normal. Watermelon tastes rotten to her, beer tasted like Windex for a while and her daughter said Sondgeroth can’t smell certain flowers anymore.
Sondgeroth said she’s holding off on getting vaccinated until more research comes out."

This is such a disingenuous response. There's NO fucking way they change their mind when "more research comes out" as to the safety and efficacy of the vaccines. :rolleyes:Quote:

I wouldn't fly anywhere with an unvaccinated kid. (Typed while sitting next to my 8 year old grand nephew who flew up from Socal but it wasn't my call.)
What are you planning to do in LA? Can you get an n95/kn95 for your kid for the traveling part.Quote:

It's definitely stupid.Quote:

Whether Republicans Get Vaccinated Has A Lot To Do With If They Watch Fox News … Or OANN
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features...yond-fox-news/
Quote:
Overall, Republicans were among those most likely to say they’re hesitant or resistant to getting vaccinated. But 58 percent of Republicans who get their news from mainstream outlets and 54 percent of Republicans who get their news from Fox News said they had either already received a dose of a COVID-19 vaccine or would get vaccinated as soon as possible. Just 32 percent of Republicans who get their news from far-right news sources said the same. What’s more, 32 percent of these Republicans said they would refuse the vaccine, versus 11 percent of Republicans who get their news from mainstream outlets and 16 percent of Republicans who get their news from Fox News. That said, all three groups of Republicans expressed similar levels of hesitancy about getting vaccinated — 31 percent of mainstream news Republicans and 29 percent of Fox News Republicans said they weren’t sure if they’d get vaccinated, compared to 37 percent of far-right news Republicans who said the same.
That's a little extreme. Yeah, they're selfish assholes, but I don't think they're really tantamount to raping the indigent with repurposed paper products.Quote:

looks pretty scary, should i get unvaccinated?
also, do we need licensing to disseminate information on the web? wtf is with these sites, and none of the propaganda munchers ever come back to say mea culpa.
so anyway, small sample size, doesn’t account for combo editors like age, etc.
here’s an article about it too.

MultiVerse had a purdy picture some 7 pages ago (before all that bizarre shit-bag talk) that might be pertinent to this question.

While the paper doesn't look at risk factors it seems like a good idea for the highest risk groups to continue masking and distancing. At least until nearly everyone is fully vaccinated, i.e. when hell freezes over.
Yeah. My 51 year old bride that works out every day and takes no meds is super high risk.Quote:
