Serious question for you, zelmo. I'm not trying to start an argument--I'm legitimately curious. Will you take the vaccine when it's available?

[RCMerchant]

Yeah! Trump is gonna make it free!  
Next April! That lights my fire, baby!

Serious question for you, zelmo. I'm not trying to start an argument--I'm legitimately curious. Will you take the vaccine when it's available?

Considering how nobody knows how long that the vaccine will actually work as intended, and that you will have to quarantine for as long as you would if you caught the actual virus, I think not. I will probably just take my chances with COVID-19 itself. There is way too much guinea pig potential in what the government has planned for the gullible masses.

The RNA technology being tested in human volunteers is promising, but questions remain about safety, whether it works and how long it might last.

"I don't think we know," said Peter Jay Hotez, dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. "It's a brand-new technology, and we've not really had large numbers of [vaccinated] people walking around for years."

I disagree with your analysis but I appreciate your answer.

heres the east village in NYC

but kids can't go to school ( unless they are private schools in which case they can????)

[RCMerchant]

^ and that was taken...when? Yesterday?
I doubt it. Short sleeves in November?

Here are some folks in Poland in 1938!



And even if it was taken yesterday-
What does that prove? Except some folks are idiots? 

[Allhallowsday]

That's the outside dining thing they've been doing in NYC for months.  Masks are not required in out of door eateries; they get in the way of mouths.

Here in town there's a video that showed a bar that had patrons not following guidelines and the person taking the video was harassed for it.

I finally personally know someone who's tested positive for Covid: my cousin's teenage daughter. The entire family just finished quarantining.

I did have a friend on Facebook who was positive, and another friend who had relatives who died from it, but this is the first person I've actually met who's turned up positive. It's going to get worse before it gets better, but hopefully the vaccines will have this thing wiped out like polio by 2021.

I'm getting the vaccine the moment it's available and I hope all of you will too.

New Yorkers parting during covid

lets be honest, this is supposed to be sympathetic. you're supposed to watch and say yes I miss going out and so forth. If this article had been about people in nebraska it wuld have been about how stupid and evil they are.

[Zapranoth]

My favorite (sarcasm) latest headlines are of the format [insert name of official] found going to [insert verboten get-together], only hours after telling [area governed] to not gather."

Geez.

Can we have some effective leadership please?  And less hypocrisy, thank you.

Rev, I'm getting the vaccine the instant it's available.

Seventeen people in my church (of 45 members) contracted the virus, one died.
Seven of my students tested positive in the last week, along with numerous  members of their families.
It's bloody awful, and I'm tired of people denying and downplaying it.

WEAR A MASK, AVOID LARGE GATHERINGS!

The vaccine is coming.

Just a little longer.
