Early bird gets to name the thread.
Plenty of vaccine doses available . . . go get some today (before the kids get them in a couple of weeks).

Well, Lora Reinbold just got covid, and the headline is predictable: "Airline-Banned Anti-Mask GOPer Gets COVID, Predictably Treats It With Horse Pills"
I was at Disney this week in Orlando, FL. You must mask up indoors but could be mask less outside at the parks. At Disney Springs they even have a mask vending machine. I understand though that Disney is a tourist attraction and will charge for everything, LOL. Mrs. goreds2 and I had a great time.
In Ohio, most stores supply a mask for free. The Columbus, Ohio airport provides masks for free.

Back on the Rogan point. I think he is an entertaining guy who a lot of times has pretty good and candid conversations with interesting people. I also think his point about individual health and fitness is very important in battling Covid.
All that said, in the Gupta interview, he took an article on a study that he kept bringing up, but wouldn't listen to Gupta when he tried to tell him why it was misleading. While I do think Rogan is intelligent, he doesn't know how to read a medical study or paper. Gupta was trying to debunk Rogan's point, but Rogan was talking over him.
On another note, we have gotten to this point in society where influential people have their "fanboys" who do the influencer's bidding. I used to be on an OSU website where a lawsuit came out that two of the owners were screwing (or attempting to screw) the members. Even during this time, there were people out there doing the disgraced owners bidding. Attacking anyone who dared say something negative about the guy screwing them over. Same thing with Rogan, he can say he wants to sue CNN, but he can't. If he took ivermectin, which he did, what grounds does he have. He is just drawing attention and fame to himself, letting his fanboys out there fight his battle. And you can lump in the former pre...................

The greater point is, had Rogan been able to sue, he would have. Ivermectin is a horse dewormer with a very specific use in humans. Treatment of Covid is not that, in essence, CNN reporting that he took horse medicine was not factually incorrect.
But Joe Rogan would be glad you are taking up his battle for him.
I was watching TV Land last night. It was one of my favorite episodes, here is part of the script:
Setting: Night time, stall. Camera zooms in to Mr. Ed sleeping - he snores! A noise is heard off camera, Mr. Ed wakes up.
Mr. Ed: Who is that? Wilbur is that you?
Wilbur: Ed, its just me, go back to sleep?
Mr. Ed: Wilbur, what are you doing back there? Are you in my medicine drawer?
Wilbur: Just go back to sleep (wheezy cough)
Mr. Ed: Wilbur, why are you taking my medicine? I have worms from that cheap food you've been giving me.
Wilbur: Ed, (cough, cough), I'll replace the medicine in the morning (cough, cough)
Mr. Ed: Wilbur, you don't look very good - kind of gray around the gills - and why are you going through the fish tank supplies?
Wilbur: Ed, its just a little flu, it's nothing, go back to sleep.
Mr. Ed: Wilbur, you look terrible - and why are you so close to me?
Wilbur: It's nothing (cough, wheeze, cough). (Wilbur falls over)
Mr. Ed: I can't intubate you, I don't have any hands. Ugh...
Wilbur: Can you at least kick that bleach over this way, I need a little sip...

It is so bizarre to me that the horse dewormer folk get so irate when you dare to not take their Joe Rogan binky seriously.
To intelligent people who chose to get the vaccine, it is totally irrelevant whether the horse dewormer came in pill form or paste form. It is chemically the same thing. The pedantic argument they are trying to make makes them look even more stupid.
