COVID-19 2020

[Julian, Forum COGNOSCENTI]

4.58 million vaccine doses administered in the US today

New record.

Want to cycle back to this now that I have returned -- this number is insane considering where we were on January 1. The vax process wasn't in as bad of a place as people think when Biden took over (similar to how the economy was improving when Trump took over in 2016) but Biden's team has truly ramped this up incredibly well. The J&J and Merck partnership and the ability to get single-dose immunity out (that doesn't have a 3-5 week latency period) is a game changer for watching our numbers fly up.

I have read that the partnership was already in the works...


Doesn’t really change anything in my book..my conclusions are the same...

Team Biden is doing a good job

It's a 55th birthday present for me.

Day 1: @POTUS  set a goal of vaccinating 100 million people in 100 days.

Day 33: We’re already halfway there.

Looks like we'll reach 100 Million shots 31 days early

so do we call them the 'do-something-dems' now

[hutch]

Seemingly everyone felt the 100 million target significantly undershot

I do think it’s an accomplishment nonetheless

We played Fountains of Wayne as we drove this morning to get our first jabs.
Waiting 15 minutes post-jab, they were playing "Won't Get Fooled Again." Seemed like my 80 year old "I'm not letting them put that poison into me" mom was playing DJ.

Congrats!

That’s great space


Am jealous...


Although I been informed that even if I get the shot I have to live my life like I haven’t cause I could pass on the covid to my kids who haven’t been vaccinated

I plan on doing everything the same, except I'll fly for the first time in July, with unvaccinated kid. She also wants me to take her to King's Dominion again this year...something we've been doing together every year (except 2020) since she was little...would be hard to say no to that one.

If your kid has no health risks, the chances of having a serious case of COVID are very, very low.

I just got an appointment in MD ahead of the 2B schedule using this site

A pretty far removed cousin had his around ten year old son catch covid recently and go through hell and the kid still isn’t recovered...hospitalized and everything.. real suffering ... kid had no preexisting issues

But like you am sure will do some things differently.... still, doesn’t seem like bars or concerts are in my future for a good long time...

I've heard hearsay that Moderna will have a vaccine ready for 12-15 year olds prior to the start of school. Are your kids in that range?

Also, wouldn't your kids be more endangered by being around (many) other unvaccinated kids all day in school than from their (one) vaccinated dad going to a concert a couple times a week?

They're in phase 3 of a trial around children and phase 2 of a trial around infants but I do not know the age ranges for where those two split off.
