I don't know how much it impacts society if they get vaccinated or not. Since they're likely to still be contagious, assuming they coming contact with the virus outside the vaccine. The vaccine will really just keep them out in public as another group of asymptomatic people spreading the thing to people who aren't within the Tier 1 list - people like you and me."The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.

It's to appease the dopes. Look at that list. The ambulance people will all get vaccinated gladly; they have some comprehension of science and medicine. The cops and fire are recruited from the dregs -- it's going to be a crapshoot. A lot of them will have idiocies running around in their brains from Dear Leader or their god myths or whatever.Originally posted by rufus View Post
I wonder if the military is mandating. On the one hand: the grunts have no rights and even if soldiers don't understand science the brass do. On the other hand: pervasive ashattery throughout the services.Last edited by Kepler; 12-30-2020, 01:42 PM.Cornell University

A friend from high school (cow county, Maryland) is an EMT for Baltimore. She posted that her employer contacted her about getting the vaccine next week, she wrote, "I'm not sure how to feel". I interpret it as, she still lives in Trump-ville, surrounded by Fox News believing friends. Even first responders can fall victim to the cult.Originally posted by rufus View Post

I don’t disagree. My poorly stated point was it’s not hard for a company the size of mine to offer vaccines, logistics, etc for all 100+ sites in the US (worldwide too maybe). Each site with an average population the size of a tiny rural farm community and a total worldwide population of less than a third that of Minneapolis. The records keeping and electronic logistics are easy enough to solve.Originally posted by St. Clown View Post
A county government should be able to figure this out; a state certainly should; and if the feds can’t, we’re all ****ed.
Anyways... a state should be able to figure out how to roll up a redundant pair of cold storage semis to a site no matter how rural the location and get people vaccinated. This isn’t hard. It’s just a malicious refusal of some localities to participate.
Exit: Actually, going back to the context, I realize my point was that a state could easily contract with companies and pharmacies to distribute to local communities once we get to a phase where we’re shipping millions of doses a week.Last edited by dxmnkd316; 12-30-2020, 02:25 PM.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

Maybe. But I’d guess the liability is a fraction of the profits they’re losing because we’re all shut down.Originally posted by jerphisch View PostCode:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

I was kind of hinting toward an average. Like it would be pretty easy to find 20-30 sites in Wayne County (Metro Detroit) Michigan. And that would mean some remote county could deal with one. And another 20 in each touching county to that.Originally posted by Fighting Sioux 23 View Post
An obvious location to do this are at pharmacies- since they already to flu shots. And I know of 3 within a mile. Which makes the point about remote counties and people even more stark- it would take some work to find a central enough spot. But using pharmacies that most people have access to would pretty much cover enough people to get herd immunity.
Th greater point is that it's not that hard. Every single person and every single business in this country gets mail every day but Sunday. So to think we can't do multi-millions of things every day is not really correct.Comment

Furthermore, pharmacies would actually get it done. They love foot traffic. Nothing that Walgreens or CVS loves better than handing out free flu shots to the oldsters.Originally posted by MichVandal View Post
I would mandate that every person who walks into a hospital or clinic gets stuck. I don't care if they come in because they have a rash on their ballsack. Vaccinate them. Every single one. They have time to take my temperature and ask me a bunch of questions, they have time to stick me with a needle.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.Comment

OK, sure. But they need a vaccine to stick you with. Whatcha gonna do about that?Originally posted by SJHovey View PostWhat kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?Comment

Well, according to the CDC, 11 million doses or more have been distributed to the states, but maybe 2.1 million plus vaccinated? That suggests there are some doses somewhere.Originally posted by rufus View PostThat community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.Comment

Say that's true. I doubt it, but say it is. 11 million whole doses! For the entire country!!! For a vaccine that needs two doses/person. Wow.
Is that for this week? What about next week? The week after?
Gonna be a lot of sticking of folks just walking into the hospital.What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?Comment

So in reply to one post suggesting that vaccinating everyone is really hard, we came up with the obvious solution to cover everyone within a half a day. One that most people here could agree with. (not vaccinate everyone in a half day, but the potential workable solution)
The big issue now is to get coolers out to places, but those have been ordered for many places already- I had heard that my company bought a bunch. But that was just one of the vaccines.
In contrast, the "leadership" we have still have no idea to vaccinate 1M people a day. Who in the world is running this country?Comment
