How are people getting vaccines now?
Are you guys like 70 or something?

work for a hospital; their phase 1a, b, and c were not filling all appts, so they opened up to all staff.

So all these amendments are being put up by R's but they...probably still won't vote for the bill?

Nah tonight Fox was a responsible, real news netw-

Georgia is opening vaccine eligibility to all adults (age 16 and up) beginning on Thursday.

So is Texas on Monday

Daily reminder that liberal "concerns" about the vaccines+Politicizing it back in 2020 are why the vaccination rate in the US is 15-20 points below what it would have been otherwise.

You can thank the liberal media, twitter bluechecks/social media "influencers" for Delta.

Pretty depressing that the new reality seems to be "people don't like being told what to do, and if you tell them to do the right thing and then they don't do it, it's your fault."

CDC has updated their guidance - no quarantine needed if boosted and exposed; 5 days of isolation instead of 10 if you get a test.

I went to New Orleans last weekend. I'm boosted. I fully expected to get it when I went. And I have a PCR scheduled this afternoon.

and in the least shocking of news I tested + today
feelin fine! a little throat tickle.

btw I had a very questionable at home test right after I took a PCR (that later resulted negative) and then took another at home the day after that was quite positive. Make of it what you will! I'm assuming positive.

Never going to celebrate the death and suffering of another but I would like to go back in time to Fox airing this clip multiple times as a cause celebre.
