    Anyone else here in favour of mandatory vaccines? It's clear there's some kinds of stupid which aren't likely cured by education.

    Maybe!  I just don't know that it's quite doomsday.  It is like 68 though. Been that way for about 4 years now.  Brutal.

    I do have pictures of the front and back, and I'm sure it's on file somewhere with someone. 
    Made about five copies of front and back and then put the original in the safe, immediately.  
    Figured it would go missing, otherwise.

    I’m not entirely sure the government can mandate people taking something whether they want it or not. In a sense, it’s like the abortion mantra (one which I support, btw): my body, my choice.

    at least we have the social media and internet forums these days. this way at least future historians cannot glaze over or minimize how bad things really are in these times. they will have receipts.

    and they had best be brutally honest and unmerciful about it, so future generations will know how bad the division is. 

    sadly, i do not think there is any coming back to what it used to be.

    Preliminary information suggests that the covid infection rate has been extremely low within the Olympic "bubble" and that, by and large, the measures taken around quarantine, masking, and testing have been effective. No evidence at this point that cases have transferred from the "bubble" to the city's population. Those monitoring give partial credit to the high level of vaccination among athletes and crew, which apparently is around 70% - I would have thought it would be higher, actually.

    TOKYO, Aug 7 (Reuters) - Before the Olympics began, Japan had feared that the 2020 Games, with thousands of officials, media and athletes descending on Tokyo in the middle of a pandemic, might spread COVID-19, introduce new variants and overwhelm the medical system.

    But as the Games draw near their end, the infection numbers from inside the Olympic "bubble" - a set of venues, hotels and the media centre to which those coming for the Games had been mostly confined - tell a different story.

    Featuring more than 50,000 people, what amounted to possibly the largest global experiment of this kind since the pandemic began, appears to have largely worked, organisers and some scientists say, with only a sliver of those involved infected.

    "Before the Olympics, I thought people would come to Japan with many variants and Tokyo would be a melting pot of viruses and some new variant would emerge in Tokyo," Kei Sato, a senior researcher at the University of Tokyo said.

    "But there was no chance for the viruses to mutate."

    The main reason for the low number of infections was a vaccination rate of more than 70% among the Olympians, organisers and the news media, daily testing, social distancing and a bar on domestic and international spectators, organisers say.

    What does one have to do with the other? Get over it. What does she have to do with the constant shooting here in NYC?  I didn’t bring up anything to do with politics or race yet here you are in another thread quoting me and bringing up politics and race. Unreal. 
    Seems she agrees or promotes the type of behavior you’re experiencing in your city. Someone shows up on your porch? Shoot them. Reasons don’t seem to matter.

    I wonder what she says about the religious zealots who come and knock on your door?
    I hate those motherfuckers with a passion....but shooting them would be wrong.
    Guessing they get a pass, though, since right wing lunatics need the religious lunatics to vote for them

    You’re reaching so far. She has absolutely nothing to do with the gun violence in my city. Please just stop. It’s all good until it’s your family member who gets killed by a stray bullet while they’re walking to school, work or simply watching TV in their living room. If NY was a red state you’d be on here babbling away about. Everything with you is politics and race. Same old. Same old.

    COVOD/Vaccine is political in the US, doesn't matter that it should not be a political discussion, the people in this country picked sides and made it so.
