Remember when I laughed at Fauci saying everyone could get a vaccine by end of April.

I definitely did.

We'll see if I get my first dose by then. I definitely won't be fully vaxxed

So how in the world can the flu even rebound in 22?

Well, a lot of people aren’t going to wear masks or social distance even when they are sick

Will there be higher rates of vaccination for the flu?

No

But will there even be enough flu out in the wild to get a foothold to spread again?

We don't deploy countermeasures like masks/lockdowns and focus the pharma science world like we just did for the common cold for a reason.

I think a lot more people are though.  Now every desk jockey can work from home when they are sick instead of riding the bus or train to their crowded offices to save PTO.

LOL my point was lots of people won't take simple low-cost low-effort measures that could(?) wipe out the flu because they equate those measures with being afraid of "The Sniffles"

The rest are Patriots

Tired: Spring 2020 "It's not going to be as bad as the flu, so who cares"
Wired: Spring 2021 "I hope we don't have to wear masks anymore, there's no reason to wear them."

I think most people recognize benefits of masking but don't think those benefits would be worth the inconvenience. At least in this thread

Right. That's why I'm mocking the shift in narrative from acknowledging that the flu is a deadly disease to acting like suddenly it isn't a think anymore. All of the reasons to wear masks still exist, and while there certainly won't be the need for the mask ubiquity that we have now, they still have a place. Nevertheless people will still make up reasons to not take sensible measures to keep themselves and others safe. It's not even like wearing a facemask in an airport, airplane, or grocery store is some new concept. People still don't wear seatbelts and people still smoke in front of their children.

Accurate summary.

Got my second dose (chip upgraded from Vista) on Friday.  They told me since I already had Covid to expect a bad reaction to it.  I drank lots of Gatorade and took some tylenol when I started feeling crummy.  I was just achey and tired on Saturday and that was about it.

NE has finally opened the floodgates to all who want it. By the look of available appointments you can pick your chip over the next month at about a trillion different places in the Omaha metro. Feels so good guys.
