I'm not a system player. I am a system.
I am in favor of amazing summer.

+1. I expect a pretty damned nice Spring as well.

Even if it was Trump's intention to "kid"... who in their right mind and sober judgment believes that kidding in that way about a coming pandemic is a good thing to do? And who in their right mind and sober judgment would support someone without the judgment to NOT say those things out loud at that time?

Yeah I think May will start to look fairly "normal". International travel is probably a big exception, I don't see that happening probably all year for the most part. Business travel probably won't pick back up for a bit too.

The point is to push the ball down the field and never concede that you’re wrong.

Gimme an open northern border this summer and I'll be good.

Hope you're wrong. Supposed to go to Scotland in August. I'm hoping that with a vaccine it will be possible. But if the worst thing that happens is that I don't get to go to Scotland this summer, I can definitely live with it.

90 total hospitalized Covid patients this Monday with 33 in the ICU. At our peak (11/30), there were 273 hospitalized Covid patients with 80 in the ICU.
Another epidemiologist predicting herd immunity in the Spring:

The study by Columbia suggests that, as of the end of January, more than a third of the U.S. population had already been infected with coronavirus.
“We have great data to know how many people tested positive and how many people have been vaccinated. From there, we can estimate how many people have immunity but never received a vaccine and never had a positive test based on studies that have tested immunity in blood. We are able to put these numbers together and come up with the estimate of when we will reach herd immunity, which is May of this year.”

Good graph on Indiana's % of hospitalizations by age. The ages that received the vaccine are obviously showing signs of improvement.
Amazing how quickly that story dropped off the national radar.

To be fair, things have been fairly normal for some of us.
The important thing is at least our government shelled out for 63 million doses of it, allowing somebody to get rich on a complete boondoggle.
I'm not a system player. I am a system.
If someone wants to take it, why stop them?
What’s that have to do with the government buying 63 million doses of it?
What would you say.....ya do here?
