Summerofgeorge used to be a shitposter, for years. It's good to see him mature with parenthood.

Yep, it already is. Yankees cancelled this weekend. Chris Paul missed playoff games, Bradley Beal out of the Olympics, Jon Rahm having to withdraw from the Memorial he was leading. And some of that was before the recent surge in cases. Wait until the kids all return to school in the fall.

What concerns me are the recent changes in spectator events.

For example, I have some friends who were planning to attend an upcoming concert in another state, and now the dates have either been moved back or are in complete limbo.

It's not a stretch to see this being applied to anywhere that large crowds are expected.

And like last time, it only takes one large, administrative/liability/panic domino to set things in motion.

The problem with the new variant........people who have been vaccinated are getting the new strain. Apparently it is more contagious than the last. I don't understand why everybody doesn't get vaccinated? It is free. I had my two shots at Walmart. I may have spent 45 minutes combined on the two trips.


Exactly, but a lot of uneducated, non-college grads think they know better than the doctors and scientists. Look at the vaccination levels in more educated states compared to, well, the states repped on this board, including my home state.

Enough people are vaccinated that there is a ceiling on how much the variants can spread, so there really isn't any reason to change anything at all.

That's not how virology works.

Yep. Harsh, but accurate. Statistically speaking the south is going to have a much harder time with the upcoming wave than other parts of the country. I expect the SEC schedule will be hit harder than most other conferences. Get the shots folks.

I heard the baby is already calculating ROIs on both traditional and Roth IRAs, and has begun compiling spreadsheets on the various statistical rankings of formula.

Catching it, yes, a small number are.

Getting seriously ill? No, essentially nobody who is vaccinated is getting severe symptoms.

Some have been crowing all along that Covid is just a cold. Get the shots and that fantasy becomes a reality.

Or just stop worrying about whether or not people have covid or have gotten the shot. Their choice.

Does it trigger you to know all the politicians you’ve been dropping your pants for have all been vaccinated? Can you transmit the vaccine through semen?
