I've seen enough breakthrough cases that I'll mask indoors when not eating or drinking while case rates stay high. But I don't think it will stop me from doing anything I want.

I got two doses Pfizer in April, mostly stay home and avoid indoor crowds. Got the Delta breakthrough last week. Feel like crap. I hadn't been masking lately at the grocery or hardware store, etc. I do wonder if the mask would have helped, and I worry I infected others before I was symptomatic. Masking is easy, and I got too complacent.

Will the delta variant allow me to dream of seeing 80+% of my SS?
You can use it to pay off your existing student loans... :cheers:

Certainly it will be paid off by the time I get SS.  Although at the rate covid is burning through the dry/obese maga wood I might defer until then.  I have adequate retirement savings to have no need for SS.

I hope you feel better Porky.

Sadly, our president told us all that if we were fully vax'd it would be "impossible" to get Covid.  Our CDC director told us fully vax'd folks we could take off the masks and didn't have to worry anymore.

You were simply going by what a key member of the Biden Covid Super Team said, so no worries.

Again, hopefully it passes soon.

Definitely dumb to say i.possible. its weird that they came out with new guidance after new data with a new variant but Dax wasn't tuned in the past couple months I guess.

By May the Delta Variant and it's high level of transmission was a known quantity from it's emergence in India three months prior.     Seven days prior to our highly emotional CDC director making her proclamation, the WHO had placed the Delta Variant in the classification of highly transmissible.   

#blueanonGe, particularly #blueanonGe CoronaBro Phil will never recognize that our CDC director was simply trying to score political points for her boss.

Symptoms are like a summer cold/flu but with added exhaustion. No fever. Weird thing is no sense of smell...horseradish, peanut butter, whiskey...all smell like empty air.
Dax, appreciate the well wishes but no need to blame anyone. There is a virus out there and I caught it. Because Pfizer I won't need the hospital. End of narrative.

Thank goodness for the chip.

Not really blaming, just noting that you paid attention.   You got vax'd, you were told you didn't need a mask and you were told you couldn't get the virus once you were fully vax'd.   

The moral of the story:  Pandemics are hard

dax, can you explain what you are doing itt? you say you are pro-vax but then post every stupid right wing thing about vaccines not being the absolute 100% fool proof cure in this and other countries. what's the play there? it's 100% confirmed they are the answer to us getting out of this and I know you agree with that, or do you? is it just politics because "your side" is anti vax?

Dax’s point has always been that there is no leader or method succeeding against COVID and you’re all pieces of crap for criticizing trump’s way of dealing with COVID and using those criticisms to help steal the presidency from him.

Our 1 shot or more in the US is approaching 200M people, that’s nearly 80% of the 18 and up population.  Surely if such a thing as herd immunity exists we have to be approaching it?

one shot is considerably less protective than two and even two doesn't completely prevent infection.  and last i saw two shot % was around 50% (all ages).

iirc, the r0 value for delta is thought to be like 6-8, something like that.  which would put herd immunity at like 85% or so.  so, basically never (unless we get more effective vaccines).

I am trying to figure out when you became so dumb.

I was told that whipping this pandemics ass only required #blueanon favored politicians. 

It was just going to be that easy.

BTW, there are still tens of millions of unvaccinated non MAGA and non MAGA populations still poll at some of the highest vaccine hesitancy rates in the country.

What trim is really trying to say is that black people in his mind don’t really matter. In essence for trim they’re utterly inconsequential and thus they don’t need to be held to the same expectations that CoronaBro #blueanon has for white people.  If black people die, that’s nothing to trim, he’s still going to rail on whitey.


As of 8/16 the approximately 3.6 million black people living in Texas had a vaccination rate of 38%.
