    Is this only for the eligible tiers (i.e. 65 and up, specific health conditions, etc), or can anyone schedule one pending availability?

    The universe must read RedsZone because I just got an appointment for doses 1 and 2 via Walgreens' site.

    I still wouldn't give it to college students. Not first. I'd give it to fat people 39 and under, I guess. Some of them would be college students, I suppose.

    Idk, I kind of think vaccinating all(most) college students would wrap up the pandemic in this country faster than just about anything. Seems like they are the ones constantly spreading it. I live in a community with a lot of bars that kids from Cleveland State and Baldwin Wallace frequent and the pandemic has been effectively over for them since August. Not passing judgement or whatever, but I think they are the ones catching it and then going to family Christmas parties and passing it to their parents and grandparents. I get it, vaccinate the most vulnerable first, but I think we are also waiting to vaccinate the folks spreading it the most which doesn’t really make much sense to me.
    What would you say.....ya do here?

    Agree with this. Also, the most vulnerable are probably better fits for the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. AstraZenaca and JNJ are good options for the young/healthy.

    Two fully vaccinated people can gather individually with minimal risk, Dr. Anthony Fauci told CNN’s Chris Cuomo Thursday.

    "You can start getting together as individual people, even though the risk is not zero, the risk becomes extremely low when you have both parties vaccinated," said Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease.

    How many of you hadn't already figured this out? When's the next time this guy's going to tell us something we don't already know? Another profound statement from Tony...

    It's a bit of chicken or egg, I suppose. If we vaccinate the most vulnerable, it doesn't really matter if it spreads. If we vaccinate the ones who spread it the most, the need to vaccinate the most vulnerable wanes. It will be nice when most all of us have been vaccinated!

    I think those kids have already had it for the most part and are no longer spreading it and this is a good thing.

    You have to be eligible currently.

    So I had my first legit workout at a gym since September earlier today. Sat down at a Skyline to eat lunch. Going to The Eagle in OTR later for dinner.

    Feels good man!

    State Covid Vaccine Dashboards2

    Here's still another article written by an expert (this time a Stanford guy) who says that we're reaching herd immunity:

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/opini...mn/6810858002/

    I think it's really well written and easy to read. He very succinctly explains, using factual examples, why things like seasonality and mask wearing does not explain the huge drops we're seeing all over the world. The media is not talking enough about national immunity, which has immunized a whole more than Moderna and Pfizer have

    It’s very unlikely herd immunity. The numbers would be dropping more.

    There is very likely some partial immunity, particularly in certain areas, and the vaccines are accelerating it in older populations, but it’s not herd immunity.

    Re: Covid-19, Part XI - Rounding Third?

    That study has long been discredited due to it being extremely flawed.

    1.) It was an observational study, not a randomized trial. Multiple randomized trials have shown the ineffectiveness of treating COVID19 with hydroxychloroquine. Due to the fact that they are not randomized, observational studies are worthless when it comes to proving cause and effect.

    2.) Many of the patients in Henry Ford's study were also treated with dexamethasone, which has been extremely successful at reducing mortality in COVID-19 patients. Knowing this about dexamethasone, I wonder why the study patients got better?
