looks like it's in orange county, ca

4 dead. ugh.

 

jesus christ - I can't even fucking keep up.

 

1 dead was a child

 

this country couldn’t even get everyone to wear a mask in public places...

 

lol

"Being asked to show I'm not a vector for a deadly virus before I walk into this crowded situation where it could easily spread is basically nazi germany!"

I really hate these people. I wonder how they've dealt with mandatory vaccinations all their lives.

 

Pfizer says vaccine protection lasts at least 6 months after 2nd shot

Gonna have to pour one out for the antivaxers argument that "it's not really approved, it's just got emergency use authorization" soon.

 

Depressing story of the day

Jump in cancer diagnoses at 65 implies patients wait for Medicare, according to Stanford study

 

I also saw a "If you think the voter ID law is racist but the vaccine passport isn't please unfollow me now"

OK!

 

lol.

 

Has to be dril

so is it expected this will be an every six months for the foreseeable future type thing?

 

I think this is just saying that six months is the longest data they have

 

No not yet I think it's just saying that so far after 6 months they haven't seen reduced efficacy yet. I don't think they have enough data for longer than that yet.

But knowing they're applying for full authorization soon just warms my antivaxer hating heart

 

There were 47 mass shootings in March alone? How does this ever get fixed?

 

What the hell kind of pull-up is that??

 

Of all people, I want her to catch Covid and suffer harsh symptoms purely out of spite

 

Why is she doing the worm?

 

And here I was thinking that COVID was over and it was safe to have tens of thousands of fans pack a stadium:
