Amen. Third-wave shutting Europe down again. Seems like they are always running a few weeks ahead of us.
I have seen it ravage seemingly healthy people and also do nothing to others who are not so healthy. I think the medical community has failed us that they cannot properly identify what puts a person at risk. Shutting everything down, with the exception of people in power is bad policy and has not seemed to work. Now the economy is in turmoil and people are also financially unhealthy.
Where is the accountability from those in charge? Where is the watchdog who is supposed to keep these people in check? There are questions that need answers and nobody is even asking the questions.

He’s just mad I will not take a paternity test without a court order. I tried to explain to him that what I did to his mom couldn’t have produced an offspring. I’m good but not that good.

Is COVID spread by Butt Chugging?

Way to avoid the point, and Don’t flatter. I hated the vols well before I came across him many a website ago.

A Hog fan calling out anybody about football is LARGE.

Some states might, but that (a shutdown) is not going to happen here at the nation wide scale again to the level it was last summer

Only in Mississippi.
Tennessee and Louisiana just started vaccinating high risk people under 65 last week. Georgia started two days ago. Alabama doesn't start until Monday. Florida has started, but makes the person go get a letter from a physician documenting their CKD or cancer, or whatever, first.
It was very important that we vaccinate all the healthy 26 year old medical billing clerks and data analysts before millions of cancer patients, organ recipients, and diabetics.

Watching young people, in their 40's, with no significant health risk, other than going out to eat or stopping to by something at a Walmart, literally die a long drawn out death in the ICU while going thru multisystem organ failure would probably change your mind.
I've been transporting them from the time it started. I worked a covid related cardiac arrests on a guy that was my next door neighbor for 10 years and another that I'd known for 40 years. I had it and was on the verge of being hospitalized myself.
None of that changed my mind.
Just compare Florida to California. Cali has been locked down forever. People are miserable and bankrupt. Disney is closed (and if smart will leave the state and never reopen). Florida has been open for months.
Their covid stats are virtually identical.
The choice isn't about whether we choose the economy or health. The only choice is are we going to live life and have an economy or hide in the corner and go broke because the same people are going to get sick and/or die whichever route we take. That fact wasn't so clear 9 months ago but it is utterly undeniable now.

^^This. People have no fricking idea what they're talking about. They speak from a position of privilege because no one they know has died from COVID. A friend of mine who is in his early 30s just lost his wife to COVID. She had no preexisting conditions or risk factors. He only got to say goodbye via a video phone link. Plenty of people will get COVID and turn out relatively fine but plenty will die or be permanently damaged because of it.
Let's all get vaccinated and stop fricking arguing about it. Social distancing isn't hard. Neither are the small steps people take to stop the spread.

Deaths are tragic but when folks under 75 with no preexisting conditions have a 0.02% chance of death we should have reopened everything. Wash your hands, do the basic stuff you should be doing during a normal flu season before vaccination was a viable option.
Yes people will die, but life is a terminal event. You can die in a car accident, from a viral infection, from a blood clot, or old age but at the end of the day we all die. Choosing not to live is worse than dying for most folks.

Nothing stops the spread, just slow it and prolong this nightmare, or open everything up and let this thing run its course.

Interesting. Now that Phatamous has been
paid off (again) to leave and is in exile,
his curse and a foul air still lingers over Rocky Top.

I know many, many, many people who have contracted COVID over the last year. None of them have died or even had remotely worrying symptoms. Thus the point that locking down the 99% for the 1% is a massive overreaction and should be corrected.
