That and too close to other people......The idea of the mask is to wear one if you can’t maintain social distancing. It is not meant to be a substitute.....anyone that suggests a mask is supposed to be an effective substitute for staying away from people is lying.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 12:36 pmI guess that means they weren’t wearing masks.ardilla secreta wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 11:59 amNever heard of an air powered costume.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 10:56 am https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/03/health/u ... index.html

you know (i hope) i am not referencing you with any disparagement. just this line of discussion in general on here is... tiring.
There is evidence, imo. Look at the total, not number of distributed, vaccines. Ability is there. That IS evidence imo. Rollout, not do much, again imo. Do manufacturing is there.... perhaps we should look at americas clearing house for distribution? They can get that stupid sweepstakes to everyone why not home tests?
Death by a thousand cuts starts with a single slice.....
production is a mystery.
if ed mcmahon can make it to our doorstep, and everyone can buy a coke tomorrow if they want one, should it be available? sure. in theory.
truth. lot of that going around.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 1:22 pmThat and too close to other people......The idea of the mask is to wear one if you can’t maintain social distancing.

I played against Ted Williams’ son in a college hoop game. I don’t remember much about him. I am sure the feeling is mutual...Ted was in the stands. Body attached. EDIT: I believe he was pretty good.

we were also discussing rapid at-home antigen tests. not vaccines that could be left out overnight. room temperature works for the antigen tests.
didn't see this before. i don't know the answer to this.a fan wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 9:48 pmYes. And we discussed this over the summer. Did the Federal Government throw its shoulder into that effort.
Can you point to a story where the Feds expanded the ability to manufacture ( building manufacturing infrastructure) the vaccine exponentially from where it was before the pandemic?
Not distribute the vaccines. Manufacture them in the first place.
I can't either. Why? Because we didn't do that, that's why.
No other country has a GDP of $19.5 Trillion. We're supposed to leverage that it times of crisis.
and there's lots of first world countries that are in the ballpark for per capita gdp. would only have to put similar dollars to cover their pop.a fan wrote: ↑Sun Jan 03, 2021 3:59 pmNo other country has a GDP of $19.5 Trillion. We're supposed to leverage that it times of crisis.
Put it another way: what are the odds that these US pharmaceutical companies just happen to have the infrastructure to roll out a vaccine for the entire nation, as fast as possible?
Not high.
The fact that we're almost twelve months in, and you and I can't point to an in depth paper detailing US vaccine production infrastructure tells you all you need to know.
We don't have a leader in the Federal Government that thinks in these terms---meaning: time matters. We did in WWII. It's why we won.

I've been thinking about my area: about 250,000 people, but pretty localized geographically within a few square miles, empty beyond. Two hospitals, plus two large non-hospital medical centers that MIGHT have the freezers needed.
So if we want to get everybody vaccinated within 9 months, we need roughly two thousand shots a day, every day.
I have no idea how this happens. Where are the personnel to administer these shots? Who organizes them? Who pays them? Who organizes the sign-ups to get a shot? Or do we wait in line for days like in Florida?
Seems incredibly daunting.
I'm supposed to get jabbed tomorrow afternoon, fingers crossed. Will let everyone know how it goes.CU77 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 04, 2021 1:26 am They had federal leadership back then.
