I attended Texas public school in the 70s and 80s and no one gave a shit about hair length. We could wear shorts. But the Assistant Principal got his dick hard by walking up to girls and making them kneel to prove their skirts touched the ground.
Yeah, It’s not an especially useful metric to ask % in hospital who are vaccinated. As vaccination rates rise, that percentage will rise even though the total hospitalization numbers drop significantly.
Yeah, but it does appear to be a two/four month cycle regardless of what actions a society takes. That’s going to mean some increased risk for us here until we can burn through all the antivax nuts two months at a time. There are a lot of them to burn through, too.
Looks like cases are back up somewhat in England and parts of continental Europe - reasoning is waning immunity from shots or low vaccination rates in some countries. Not quite as bad as before, but now I'm worried we're just coming to a mysterious "two months on/two months off" cycle with this virus, with Europe about a month or so ahead of us.
So in line with this question from last week - I got my first 2 shots at Methodist back in Jan/early Feb. Today Methodist texts me and basically says "Why TF haven't you gotten a booster? We show you're going to drop dead because it's been like forever and stuff. What in the actual fuck is wrong with you? Go get one."
This is kind of what I was getting at about a Moderna UTR "booster" - officially I am going to go long time no shot and at some point institutions will notice and care. My magic vaccine passport will lose its fairy dust because it says I haven't gotten a shot in 10-11-12 months. I guess I can produce my new and improved Moderna one, but then that looks like I only got one shot. Or produce both and I look like I bought cards from some chiropractor.
Wonder how big a deal it would be to get a Pfizer booster after the Moderna one and how close they can be? Because that may be where this ends up going.
To honor those here who have fallen from the cloak room, yes I am a bit creeped out by the "surveillance," but that's not really the issue, dude.
I think we should have some sort of legislative hearings on why there were something like a dozen truly good BBQ places in Texas for decades, and most of those pretty far from urban areas. The last 15 years or so proves it didn’t have to be that way.
Turns out Houstonians didn’t have to settle for Luther’s and Gabby’s. Folks in SA didn’t have to eat saddle leather from Bill Miller. Folks in Dallas didn’t need to get stuck eating the guy down the street’s “chopped brisket” from his $6,000 native stone propane grill.
Someone should be held accountable for that. I figure that since they had time to investigate Texas leaving the Big 12, the leg clearly is up for the job.
