Garbage study not much more to say.

Well-run study. I'm sure all 81 counties were a perfect control group.

Nursing homes — once the epicenter of the pandemic in New Jersey — reported infection levels began to decline quickly last winter, once vaccines were widely available to residents and staff. That trend continued through this spring, mirroring the virus’s impact on the community at large. In May state regulators allowed family and friends to visit residents again, albeit with masking and other protocols, particularly when the individuals involved are not immunized. But the expanding presence of the delta variant — which spreads twice as effectively as the original form of the virus — recently changed the trajectory of the disease in long-term care facilities. National nursing-home data indicates a low point for new cases among residents and staff in mid- to late June, but diagnoses have escalated quickly since then. By the week ending July 18, the most recent for which figures are available, cases among residents had grown 124% and staff cases increased 184% over three weeks.

I'm not, you and OSU are the ones claiming the spread is due to the unvaccinated. What I'm saying is the vaccinated spread it as well.

Why would I? I am vaccinated.

Got it, a one off huh?

Aren't they the experts?

Between January 4 and February 28, 2021. Wouldn't that be before the Delta variant?

In yet another unexpected and unwelcome twist in the pandemic, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released on Friday a report strongly suggesting that fully immunized people with so-called breakthrough infections of the Delta variant can spread the virus to others just as readily as unvaccinated people.Jul 30, 2021

Oh I understand that once vaccinated the virus becomes much less troublesome. Not sure there's any definitive proof that you are less likely to spread it once vaccinated. If you know of one please let me know.

How about vaccinated folks without a mask? They can't spread it. Do you have a link to a study?

Summer being summer.

Meh

Exactly, we tried to tell him. He's having a tough tough year....

Bradley is in Mansfield?

Yeah but the heat index.

Glad we don't live there.

Day two of your heatwave fail: While there will be lots of clouds, we do expect some sunshine through mid/high cloud shield. Low levels are cooler today, but breaks of sun will allow temps to reach into the 80s in northern MA and CT valley with 70s closer to the south coast. Moderate humidity levels with dewpoints in the 60s

Are you going to run the AC tonight?

Super more rain.

Here's something I thought you might enjoy https://www.factcheck.org/2021/08/scicheck-posts-misinterpret-cdcs-provincetown-covid-19-outbreak-report/ Must have taken them all day to cherry pick those experts.

Don't mind him he has a bad case of sack fungus. Makes him cranky.
