Our local daycare has an e-mail chain going around to get people to sign a petition to reverse mandatory masks in schools. (Not that it has a chance) It did a good job showing who all the nutcases are. One parent posted a link to this clown - Matt Walsh https://twitter.com/MattWalshBlog/st...78511915577344 - a self proclaimed theocratic fascist, philanthropist, beekeeping influencer, fashion icon. This is who people are listening to these days. It's pathetic.
Wonder if we'll open the mass vax clinic up again.
Here's who is is eligible for a Covid-19 booster shot
From CNN's Maureen Chowdhury
Health officials announced that some fully vaccinated US adults will be eligible to receive a Covid-19 booster dose starting in September, during a White House update.
Here are key things to know about the booster dose roll-out and requirements:
Who is eligible for the booster shot?
Fully vaccinated adults (18 years and older) who received two doses of an mRNA vaccine will be eligible.
When will people be able to receive an extra dose? Booster doses will be available starting Sept. 20, 2021.
How long after your initial vaccination do you have to wait? The booster dose will be administered to qualifying adults eights months after their second Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccine. For example, if you received your second vaccine dose on Feb. 1, 2021, you would be eligible for a booster Oct. 1, 2021.
What about people who got the Johnson & Johnson vaccine? US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy said that he anticipates that those who received the J&J vaccine will also need a booster shot, but added that more data should come in the following weeks.
Health officials said the rollout ensures that vulnerable populations — who were first to get initial doses of the vaccine — will be eligible first for the booster shot. This includes health care providers, nursing home residents and other seniors.
Murthy noted that the current roll-out plan is pending on "FDA conducting an independent evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of a third dose of the Pfizer and Modern mRNA vaccines. And the CDC's advisory committee on immunization practices issuing booster dose recommendations ,based on a thorough review of the evidence."
US officials on vaccines: We don't have to "choose between America and the world"
The US just announced plans to begin booster shots next month, but the World Health Organization has said it still recommends the world’s most vulnerable get fully vaccinated before booster shots are offered.
Asked about the US's booster shot plan in regards to global vaccination efforts, US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy said the US has a responsibility to do both.
"I do not accept the idea that we have to choose between America and the world. We clearly see our responsibility to both," he said.
Murthy continued:
"When we see data that is giving us essentially indications that protection is starting to diminish in terms of mild and moderate disease when we recognize that if this trajectory continues, that people who are well protected today may see more vulnerability in the future, we have to act. The science tells us that. Our clinical judgment tells us that, and that was a collective decision of the top public health and medical experts in this administration.
"Again, we will do everything possible to protect people in our country. That's why we're announcing this booster plan, but we will also continue to accelerate our efforts to vaccinate the rest of the world," he added.
Jeff Zients, the White House Covid-19 response coordinator, agreed, saying both global vaccine efforts and protecting Americans are "critical."
"During the coming months, when we talk about booster shots, we expect to give about 100 million boosters in the United States and at the same time we will be donating more than 200 million — twice that number — additional doses, to other countries on our way to donating more than 600 million vaccines," he said.

Actually, I kind of know what's wrong with a lot of these people, I just can't understand how it's tolerated.

Only a massive, giant, sand-filled pussy would be afraid of this, and it just looks like there's a good 30-40% of Americans who are just that. They put on a disguise of being better-informed and anti-government and pro-choice, but really they're just adult babies who are scared of a little discomfort. I know 7-year-olds on my daughter's softball team (shoutout to Kayleigh!) who are tougher than these leeches of society.
Wait, can we still call people 'pussies' in 2021?
Just call them Karens. Male and Female

Any good sources to find vac rates per zip? Believe it or not, not easily finding anything for Idaho zips.
Watch out, Lambda is coming down the pike...

Looks like WA is going back to masks everywhere.

Our local fall music festival which triples the size of our town for three days has just announced that you must provide proof of vax to attend.

As the Enabler of Self-Organizing Teams for our three bike valet stations, I’m pleased they will be sorting the vaxxed from the idiots at the ticket check-in station so my 50+ volunteers don’t have to deal with the inevitable “Mah Freedumz!” bullshit that is bound to happen. All the venues are outdoors or under shelters this year but masking in the more crowded venues is gonna be interesting…
