Cases are starting to peak, as the rate of increase has significantly slowed down, especially in the states where the current spike began, in western Missouri.
All good news, but does this make any sense? It’s not like residents in the US are being cautious, or limiting indoor or stadium capacities, especially in the states with the highest per person case amounts. Delta is about twice as contagious as covid classic, so why wouldn’t the virus just keep peaking? I don’t think we have run out of unvaccinated people just yet?
To steal a line from Game of Thrones:
Winter is coming…
This thing won’t finish running it’s course for a while.
and with natural and vaccine immunity only lasting a few months, this could easily keep reinfecting the same people over and over again.

Also, school is just starting in a lot of places

oddly, throughout this pandemic, here at least, kids were the smallest group affected by covid. very very few infections in school when it was actually in session. we'll see with delta, I guess. thankfully both my kids are fully vaxxed.
Has the Delta-fueled Covid-19 surge in the U.S. finally peaked?
The number of new daily U.S. cases has risen less over the past week than at any point since June, as you can see in this chart:
The New York Times
There is obviously no guarantee that the trend will continue. But there is one big reason to think that it may and that caseloads may even soon decline.
Since the pandemic began, Covid has often followed a regular — if mysterious — cycle. In one country after another, the number of new cases has often surged for roughly two months before starting to fall. The Delta variant, despite its intense contagiousness, has followed this pattern.
After Delta took hold last winter in India, caseloads there rose sharply for slightly more than two months before plummeting at a nearly identical rate. In Britain, caseloads rose for almost exactly two months before peaking in July. In Indonesia, Thailand, France, Spain and several other countries, the Delta surge also lasted somewhere between 1.5 and 2.5 months.
* Between February and July 2021, depending on the country.The New York Times
And in the U.S. states where Delta first caused caseloads to rise, the cycle already appears to be on its downside. Case numbers in Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi and Missouri peaked in early or mid-August and have since been falling:
The New York Times
Two possible stories
We have asked experts about these two-month cycles, and they acknowledged that they could not explain it. “We still are really in the cave ages in terms of understanding how viruses emerge, how they spread, how they start and stop, why they do what they do,” Michael Osterholm, an epidemiologist at the University of Minnesota, said.
But two broad categories of explanation seem plausible, the experts say.
One involves the virus itself. Rather than spreading until it has reached every last person, perhaps it spreads in waves that happen to follow a similar timeline. How so? Some people may be especially susceptible to a variant like Delta, and once many of them have been exposed to it, the virus starts to recede — until a new variant causes the cycle to begin again (or until a population approaches herd immunity).
The second plausible explanation involves human behavior. People don’t circulate randomly through the world. They live in social clusters, Jennifer Nuzzo, a Johns Hopkins epidemiologist, points out. Perhaps the virus needs about two months to circulate through a typically sized cluster, infecting the most susceptible — and a new wave starts when people break out of their clusters, such as during a holiday. Alternately, people may follow cycles of taking more and then fewer Covid precautions, depending on their level of concern.
Whatever the reasons, the two-month cycle predated Delta. It has repeated itself several times in the U.S., including both last year and early this year, with the Alpha variant, which was centered in the upper Midwest:
The New York Times
What now?
We want to emphasize that cases are not guaranteed to decline in coming weeks. There have been plenty of exceptions to the two-month cycle around the world. In Brazil, caseloads have followed no evident pattern. In Britain, cases did decline about two months after the Delta peak — but only for a couple of weeks. Since early August, cases there have been rising again, with the end of behavior restrictions likely playing a role. (If you haven’t yet read this Times dispatch about Britain’s willingness to accept rising caseloads, we recommend it.)
In the U.S., the start of the school year could similarly spark outbreaks this month. The country will need to wait a few more weeks to know. In the meantime, one strategy continues to be more effective than any other in beating back the pandemic: “Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine,” as Osterholm says. Or as Nuzzo puts it, “Our top goal has to be first shots in arms.”
The vaccine is so powerful because it keeps deaths and hospitalizations rare even during surges in caseloads. In Britain, the recent death count has been less than one-tenth what it was in January.
In a few countries, vaccination rates have apparently risen high enough to break Covid’s usual two-month cycle: The virus evidently cannot find enough new people to infect. In both Malta and Singapore, this summer’s surge lasted only about two weeks before receding.
More on the virus:
• Two top F.D.A. vaccine regulators — upset by President Biden’s announcement that adults should get coronavirus vaccine boosters — will leave the agency.
• A New Jersey woman who used the Instagram handle @AntiVaxMomma was charged with selling fake vaccine cards.
• Tom Wolf, Pennsylvania’s Democratic governor, will require mask-wearing in schools.
fuck candace owens. I love how she always brings up that democrats were the racists a hundred years ago, knowing full well it was the conservative party at the time. FUCK YOU POS.

From what I understand the Delta variant is not only more contagious all around, but affecting children much more.
My g/f is a teacher, and they are going back to school next week with nearly 0 preventative standards in place. She teaches 6th grade, so nearly all of her students are unvaxxed. It's going to be a clusterfuck in a couple weeks.

My daughter has been back in school for 3 weeks now. She is >12 so she is vaccinated. Luckily within our zip code 75% of people >12 are vaccinated (about 67% of those 12-18). So it's likely that her high school has a high level of vacinnation.
Waiting to see more data as it comes out. There are only recommendations for masks in the high school. I think only k-6 require masks. My daughter wears hers in the hall ways and some other situations, but has taken it off during classes some of the time. They have changed the standards so that vaccinated or masked students that have a close contact do not need to quarantine. I suppose we will see how everything shakes out. Interested in more data becoming available. School system did a nice job overall last year.

Here in metro Richmond, masks are required for classes. When you go one county out, into the sticks, it's a total free for all.
I got my 2nd 5G/wi-fi shot yesterday and am feeling some effects from it I would guess. Head feels like it's in a daze. Other than that I'm ok.
Hopefully this is gone by tomorrow.
Besides my new found Magneto like powers, I was just achy & lethargic for a couple days after my 2nd shot.
It was a good excuse to ride the couch for the weekend, even if it wasn't completely necessary.
Hope your side effects pass quickly.
I was sickish for about a day after my 2nd Dolly Parton shot. Ever since I've had an affinity before big blonde wigs and every time I fart my TV changes channels.
It seems to be the new normal. Again, how do you handle a minority faction that is acting like an overtired toddler? If we aren't comfortable out-crazying them (and I'm having more and more days where that feels appealing), how do we handle them?
I'm not sure what happened, but we were traveling yesterday and when our flight landed four of San Diego's finest were waiting to handle "some issues" that arose in the back of the plane. Frankly I'm surprised that this was the first flight I've taken where that happened.

Something needs to be done. Zip ties for a principal? Duct taping passengers on planes? Vaccine clinics not able to operate? It's all a complete shitshow & absolutely shocking and disgusting.

It certainly was. Sorry---just got on a roll there. What I meant by that was we should all be responsible human beings that are looking out for each other by wearing masks and getting vaccinated. That idiot didn't give a damn about anyone but themselves.

i'm getting to the point where ignorance is bliss. I know it's important to be informed, but when we were out at the lake with no wifi, I was in heaven. and I know not only because of the beach and the calm, but no news. no social media. no AMT (LOL).
sometimes I believe that news, ALL news, regardless of political leanings, sensationalize everything to keep you engaged. and I keep falling into that trap.

I fall into it as well. I've don't come to AMT nearly as much as I used to and have tried to tune out the news, but it keeps creeping into conversations. Ugh. A lake vacation sounds ideal right now.

I'm with you... I've been playing bass a lot more this summer, and doing as much as possible to stay off my phone / social media.
Doesn't work all the time, but sometimes it does... my wife can tell when I'm on twitter too much, I'm cranky AF.

I’m in the same boat. I went as far as getting a dumb phone. We don’t have cable so I rarely if ever see the news. If something isn’t affecting our local community here in Austin we likely aren’t going to hear about it unless it has a huge impact somehow. Anyways the whole family has been a lot happier acting locally.
I gotta say... all this talk about how vaccine passports are causing 'division' in our society.
The province of Alberta.... a province that did away with all restrictions on July 1st... finally admitted that the pandemic is far from over and that their hospitals are filling up too much once again predominantly with the unvaccinated.
So therefore... restrictions are back. (no shit) Mask mandates are back. (no shit)
And this one really gets me...
They are offering $100 to anyone who gets vaccinated who are not yet.
That means.... to the lazy, immoral, dumb, irresponsible people who did not bother getting a vaccine can now get $100 for doing what 70% of the population already did.
Rewarding the morons.
You want to talk about division in society? I can't wait to hear the blow back about this from people who did the right thing from the start and got the vaccine as soon as possible.

It's a weird time for sure. As of next Wednesday, all state employees in MN need to have shown proof of vaccination or submit weekly Covid tests that are negative. The kicker is that we as the employer need to pay for the tests, allow leave time to get tested during work hours and reimburse mileage if applicable. On the other side, I get why the state is paying for it because they created the work mandates, but all this is doing is divided people more. Now everyone is going to know exactly who is and isn't vaccinated based on who's leaving to get tested every Wednesday. My staff who are vaccinated are annoyed because they're basically giving incentives to the unvaccinated (paying for testing and time off to get tested). I told them they get the health benefit of being vaccinated, but I don't think that really makes it seem fair to them. It's just a giant mess.
