Ironically, states with lower unemployment rates also mirror 2020 election results
But that’s not what this thread is about. You try really hard all day long. It’s comical at least.
And so do you. It is so very sad that you feel the need to continue pushing the fear porn!
the number of covid will never be zero.
if you want protected, get the vaccine. if you are more scared, then limit any outside interaction even though you are vaccinated.
CNN....funny.
I understand the number will never be zero here in the USA but it can come damn close.
I am Neither scared nor fearful. Fully vaccinated and out and about making sales calls. Traveling to Mexico on Thursday. Went to Antigua last month. Living it up.
I am however disappointed in my fellow Americans who refuse to get vaccinated and continue to tax our healthcare system among other things.
I made sales calls this morning to pharmacies, one without a mask ( it is in a grocery store ) one with a mask in ( sign on the door ) and also a call to a credit union where I still couldn’t even get through the front door. There is an wide range of interpretation still in effect in Western Pa.
I am certain out of the 3000 plus hospitalized yesterday are more than a few hours of lost work. Any employee at this point who refuses to get vaccinated and costs his or her employer missed time on the job should be fired.
People will always do things that aren't good for them and tax the health care system - look at how many people still smoke every day when everyone knows it will greatly increase your chances of dying early and painfully. That will kill you just the same as COVID it just takes longer and probable drives up all of our health care costs more. Some people just find reasons to do things that are not in their best interests.
Not sure how it works for others, but my company health insurance has a steep surcharge for smokers (packaged as a discount for non smokers). If covid sticks around as more than a spotty nuisance, I could see a "discount" for being vaccinated.
Vaccinated or proof of the antibodies? I’ve had COVID and don’t see the reason to go and get vaccinated unless I need to show some kind of proof.
Looks like he wasn’t totally wrong....

Don’t know, don’t care. I was just commenting on what I could see happening. I wasn’t proposing that myself.
That vaccine is not approved in the U.S.Looks like he wasn’t totally wrong....

People who don’t get the flu vaccine and get the flu cost their employer time....should they get fired? How about employees who get pregnant? They cost their employer time and often don’t come back to work....should they get fired? How about smokers? Poor eaters? People who don’t exercise?
Cletus, good update. Let me add a graph so that people can see (and hopefully understand) that the numbers really are looking good.
The 'worm' has definitely turned!

Another major liberal rag now has set its sites on the possible source.
Why "Thank you Glov!" - Don't mention it.
Glov - It seems you were right all along. "I know" - It's tough being me at times.
Much of that would not be a bad idea. Pregnancy, no, covered by Federal laws and programs I believe, the rest depending on the decision of the business owner should certainly be a consideration given to the business owner. If you are unavailable to work because of pooor decisions you should be replaceable in the work force for sure.
You may not know hockey Glove. But you are spot on with the origin of COVID it is the WIV.The 'worm' has definitely turned!

We're good MacNit07.
I love chewing the fat with you.
Discussion is good food.
Now hurry on over to the Penguins post sir.
Game 6 tonight!!
PS......I DO know hockey and it is about time you realize that Peter-Puck is never coming back on NBC!
And you are unless you’re in a union. But businesses won’t because it would be stupid to get rid of a good employee for missing time for getting sick.
0.9M shots yesterday so total up to 287.79 with the 7 day rolling average at 1.75M. 80.2% of shots administered is the national average, 49.5% of population with 1+ dose (63.8% of the adult population), 39.5% of population fully vaccinated.
So far, 164 million Americans have received at least one dose of a vaccine. At least 131 million people have completed a vaccination regimen.
22,738 positives reported yesterday compared to 27,892 week over week. 7-day rolling average is at 24,668.
Fatality was 669 compared to 325 yesterday and 744 week over week, 7-day rolling fatality at 550.
Hospitalizations reported 7 day rolling average is 23,183 compared to one week ago 27,357 down 15.3%.
Hospital admissions reported 7 day rolling average is 3,171 compared to one week ago 3,633 down 12.7%.
I am assuming because kids in Britain are masked 24/7, has to be the reason.
I think ours does as well and I think you will see more debits for people that choose preventable unhealthy lifestyles - obesity, etc and if they get to alcohol consumption I'm screwed.
Ditto Glove - cheers!We're good MacNit07.

some companies have this already. you get discounts on your health insurance premium if you pass certain tests on a yearly basis (ie...BMI, cholesterol, smoker, etc...) but in general the discount levels are relatively low. so the precedence is there, just not widespread and the $$$ difference between healthy and unhealthy is not that much money when you look at the outlay of money being paid for the insurance premium.
My companies insurance gives a >40% discount if you get a yearly physical (including blood tests)...results are not used against any employee. This way you are more likely to address problems before they fester so consequently only a couple of fools don't get the physical.
mine is you have to get so many points ( by passing so many tests along with other ways to get points over the year, ie..watching on line health seminars, steps per day, gym visits, etc...) but the discount is only 20% and you have to do stuff and pass tests.
I just responded over on the hockey thread three times sir.
You need to fire back at me.
I thought that was racist and that is what everybody said it why there is this Asian hate crime in the USA. How could the admin say/do something like this.
Drudge had a healing yesterday, at one point, that stated "Moderna Vaccine 100% Effective for Teens" . Of course it is. Since infections for teens are in the single-digit percent range and the vaccine is also 95% effective. If the teen rate is 5% and the efficacy rate of moderna for adults is 95% that makes the combo 00.25% or rounded to a statistical zero.
