what are you saying back to him?
Really sad. People that don’t care about contracting COVID-19 don’t seem to appreciate that it isn’t about them. It’s about unsuspecting people that they can pass it on to. But I guess you can unexpectedly get hit by a plane like that UPS guy did unexpectedly. No difference.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 7:03 pmJoe, I certainly can understand why someone might call it "privileged"; heck, I would too!JoeMauer89 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 4:50 pmMD,MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 4:31 pmNo really my takeaway.youthathletics wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 4:08 pm Pretty neat video and coding by this person.

I watched Florida's cycle and it doesn't look like hottest versus coldest months had anything to do with timing of flares.
But it's indeed "chasing" people wherever they congregate with lots of 'dry tinder'.
Take away the dry tinder and the flares lessen. Whether that's because folks aren't congregating indoors, wearing masks (yet insufficient-in aggregate #'s- to stop spread when no one vaccinated...just helps slow) or because of vaccination and the easiest tinder already burnt...
That said, I'm looking forward to being in Florida in winter months...just in case (and to be able to walk 100 yds to the range!).
You can see how this post can be construed as privileged and "elitist". If there's a significant wave (Signs are it will be less than what it was in the winter of 20-21, which was not nearly as bad as the late winter of 2020 (Original virus jumping off point in Northeast), You are gleefully extolling how you cant wait to escape such wave, by shipping off to Florida and avoiding any personal hardship spending the winter in MD may cause you. I could care less what precaution's your community takes, not everybody has the opportunity to run wherever they want to avoid situations they don't want to deal with. And the fact you have no problem spewing this tells me all I need to know. Completely out of touch with reality, must be nice!

I'm definitely "privileged", no bones about it. Very, very fortunate.
At least some of that "privilege" has been earned by many years of working hard, taking risk, and having some good luck along the way, including marrying a great gal who had a heck of lot less 'advantages' than me at birth, yet has had her own very successful career. Lucky for me.
But, dunno where you get "elitist". What the heck does "elitism" have to do with having the wherewithal to go to Florida? Sure are a lot of non-"elitists" there, after all. "Privileged", "lucky", "fortunate" fine..."elitist" nope.
You may have missed it, but I'd be willing to wager that I'm a heck of a lot more concerned about the ravages of Covid (and other health epidemics) on those who have far less resources than you've demonstrated on these threads. Heck, the business I help run is very focused on such. I see very little evidence from your posts of such concern about others. But that's getting "personal" and I really shouldn't respond to your latest personal attack by responding in kind. Let's just say, you're mistaken to attack me on that front.
On any upcoming waves, I sure as heck hope they're effectively muted by high vaccination rates and continued diligence, everywhere, including regions where the cold is going to push people inside.
The good news in regions like the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, where btw I have a whole lot of friends and family residing throughout the winter, is that vaccination rates are high and continuing to grow, so we should at least hope this has dramatically reduced the 'dry tinder'.
I'm actually more concerned about future waves in areas like Florida which continue to have large pockets of unvaccinated and where mask compliance is very low...but Florida does have the benefit, at least for me and my family, including 84 yr old mom, of having lots of ways to enjoy oneself outside. And our community indeed has high vaccine compliance and takes precautions seriously, so again lucky to be able to be in that environment.
But let's not kid ourselves, the virus is really, really nasty. I just learned of a prominent lax coach, '50's, fully vaccinated, in good shape, who caught Delta recently, has been hospitalized twice for symptoms now...worse, the coach's father, fully vaccinated, caught it from the coach (they think)... and died. Coach is back to work 2 days a week under doctor's orders; feels terribly guilty about father.
What's your point? I have a good friend, 49 years old, his daughter contracted CV-19, shes 12, she was fine. She gave it to his wife, who is fully vaccinated. His wife had a mild to bad cold and is now symptom free after 4-5 days. It's unfortunate, but CV-19 has become a part of life. Luckily we now have the tools to deal with it, besides, "everybody quarantine in your homes with multiple family members for weeks on end and hope that transmission just magically slows. We should all be appreciative that the days of having no tools in the fight are LONG gone.Farfromgeneva wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 7:42 pmJust talked to a senior ABL banker at a soon to be > $100Bn bank (if the merger which was recently extended goes through) who got Covid last aug, has his fifth kid coming in a few weeks and got sick over the weekend and is terrified for his family.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 7:03 pmJoe, I certainly can understand why someone might call it "privileged"; heck, I would too!JoeMauer89 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 4:50 pmMD,MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 4:31 pmNo really my takeaway.youthathletics wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 4:08 pm Pretty neat video and coding by this person.

Really sad. People that don’t care about contracting COVID-19 don’t seem to appreciate that it isn’t about them. It’s about unsuspecting people that they can pass it on to. But I guess you can unexpectedly get hit by a plane like that UPS guy did unexpectedly. No difference.
CV-19 being so dominant is the major reason the flu hasn't "existed" in a while. I know you don't believe that we have achieved what it takes to eradicate flu but not CV-19, although at different levels of transmissive properties, both are in the same larger respiratory family.

On other sites delusional right wingers continue to insist that covid is nothing more than a hoax, that the casualty count is a fabrication, and that mask/vax mandates are nothing more than government repression. This delusionalism is obviously a form of drug induced mass hysteria.

If it makes you so sick, don't visit those sites. This isn't a utopian society where everyone thinks with the same level of divisiveness as the blimp.
Joe
huh. no flu deaths. what a coincidence.
you post the cartoons and i think it's a joke.
Why are you directing your anger at me? Are you serious with this post? Your wishing for a fellow poster to "croak"? What are, you 10 f**king years old? I wear a mask when its necessary and am fully vaccinated. Your a f**king cartoon character, batshit crazy. Jesus, you really are unhinged. I've always thought you were on the fringe, but this confirms it. I've never once myself seen or wished for a fellow poster to "croak". You should be ashamed of yourself, fool.Brooklyn wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 9:21 pmJoeMauer89 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 9:16 pmBrooklyn wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 9:06 pmTypical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Wed Oct 13, 2021 8:17 pm

I didn't say it makes me sick, nitbrain. The problem is that in their stupidity they are killing off innocent people but they don't a shttt. If you don't want to wear a mask or take a vax, go ahead. Maybe you'll be the next one to croak because of your idiotic beliefs.
