First option if you read carefully is a 14 day home quarantine (in home state) OR 7 day home quarantine and a negative Covid test (when taking own vehicle) that first option is what has kept the travel industry afloat in VT -

Vermont seemed to finally break thru their Covid Inversion Wonder what they will do shortly to address that and what it will mean for resorts / skiing . Maybe they do nothing I will ponder that from the Von Trapp lodge In 36 hours . Might not be able to travel there soon . -

The blame game is always easy to play for anyone pointing different fingers but not in other folks shoes. Still a bad decision is a bad decision. I would guess testing the nurses/ aids every morning prior to shift Would seem like the humane thing to do...or does that cut into LT care profits too much. Seems Stimulus money going toward funding those sort of policies would save the most lives. -

Are they still bringing Covid postive patients back to Elderly care facilites to recover after hopsital stays or just leaving them in there to spread in THAT community -

I really have a heavy heavy feeling in my heart of those folks, who are so isolated , so vulnerable (and the workers subject to huge viral loads) . It is really sickening to me. I wonder how many folks have been pulled from nursing homes since it became obvious these places are ground zero -

I have heard from reliable outlets that less than .5% of USA's total population ( Elderly Care facilities ) are responsible for 40% of the Covid deaths. That would heavily skew the elderly mortality data between those in elderly care facilities and those in other situations (such as living at home or with family) also as viral load maybe a leading cause of severe cases that would sort of emphasize what a gargantuan disaster governors who argued to "discriminate against returning covid positive patients back to their home would violate their rights" . I would like to know what the policy is this year. Ruin the economy, and then you are dependent on Government. That sounds...like the direction the globe is headed. What an opportunity for a Reset of Capitalism . I'm being cynical and somewhat tongue in cheek ..but the fact remains their is tremendous opportunity. A financially depressed globe full of debt stressed soverign nations, depressed industry , highest % of populations collecting pandemic unemployment EVER (and it's not close) and depressed citizens of all ages .. tends to be open to ideas that they otherwise would not be. That doesn't mean such solutions will come to fruition but to ignore that is to ignore some history and human nature . Also great when your counting on a congress that can't pass pandemic aid since August. If folks want to entertain ideas like Biden's "covid man" Osterholm...you can't do it without causing forced poverty of millions MORE unless congress actually agrees to pay folks replacement wages like Osterholm (to his credit emphasizes/ suggests). Because some countries certainly have Tremendously dropped their numbers, so it can be done, the key is the cost has to be minimized from a humanitarian perspective. Knowing the USA and Moscow mitch we will probably/potentially? see a blend of a worst case scenario for lives and economy thou we would see a better chance of a good response (if cases go sky high and economy re-enters recession) -

And they haven’t and this is Washington’s biggest fail compared to what other developed countries are doing several states pay a maximum of 299 or less a week for a worker who’s industry has been decimated by Covid And PPP loans are needed months ago by industries crushed . Also the unemployment rate is a joke many folks are falling off the “go to” unemployment number that governments love to use (U 3) because folks who have been out of a job for more than 6 months are (poof) no longer Counted as being in work force. When you realize 20 million lost their jobs in March and April that 6 months is up and poof unemployment rate looks much rosier . Congress is a embarrassment And both sides have serious issues one doesn’t see much of a problem , only a “V” Recovery and the other over played their hand betting on a blue wave instead of making McConnell vote against a bill that dems and Trump could have agreed at 1.9 T for . Now unless Georgia sees both run offs go Blue there is a slim chance Moscow Mitch passes much above 1 T and who knows if they will even agree to all the parts of the bill (unlikely ) minus a economic recession coming back . So folks will suffer and out side of what happened in Elderly care facilities that is the biggest disgrace of Covid . -

Hippy. One more for you. This guy went from Far left fringe that most centrists dems didn't pay any mind to or hear of (for a decade or so) to now being one of the several fighting to have his hands on the global policy steering wheel. Look at his book...its a good one. Most will just eye roll...The Great Rest (his book) and Build back better have very close parallels. Here's a Idea of Klaus's Thanksgiving and wether you should be sent to the Gulag. Nice fellow . -

Feels good that we have a Guy like Klaus Schwab as the founder of the World economic Forum. Very ambitious Group. Extremely well funded and connected. The W.E.F's call for a Great reset of capitalism (using Covid/ Climate Change/ and Cabron free goals by 2030, and Inequality and sort of twisting them all for effect are the pillars of this very straight forward plan) look up his book on amazon (titled The great reset) ..... This man is very ambitious and may not be successful thou you would be fascinated by just taking a look at his words and speeches. The Build Back Better plan is very close to the initiatives in the Great reset book. Again don't throw the baby out with the bathwater and just take a peek at this fella His latest thoughts lol -

They say they will have enough dosages in 13 months for 650 million globally. So ...this may just change time line for Highest risk folks. Only 50 million doses available for year end globally so we shall see.. Lots of deets to be ironed out. First being safety data. The NEW Messenger RNA technology does have me personally concerned about LT side effects given a completely different mechanism for action that has never been approved. This technology thou was always going to get the M RNA delivery system over the line first. A protein subunit delivery system vaccine has arguably been the favorite by many experts when it comes to guessing which delivery system will have best shot so we shall see how much this data turns that on its head. -

Does the data show that nobody in either the 40,000 person trial (placebo or vaccine) got a severe case of covid. -

Safety data out Next week. When we see the FDA Independent advisory board review this and not Pfizers we will have some extremely solid info -

STILL N OF PIKE replied to Baroclinic Zone's topic in New England
Nobody has mentioned the gigantic COVID vaccine news of Pfizer saying they have 90% efficiacy. That is game changer. They are going for Emergency use ASAP One fly in ointment is that the board reviewing data so favorably is Pfizers own Board , not the independent advisory board the Fda uses. Still thou, this is story of the day ...and sort of the election.. -

Next it will be the homeless I’m kidding completely , however human nature doesn’t change and I believe many would be absolutely frightened of what “good people” would go along with if they were in fear for their life and crazy solutions By “experts on TV” were deemed “hard almost unconscionable choices that had to be made “ Look at the milligram experiment Look at what Americans seemed to be fine doing to innocent men and women and children in Japan when we burned them alive , never can and never will I understand how the public swallowed that one , And doesn’t look back on that as heinous war crimes. -

Maybe discussed prior but Denmark is Killing all their mink. 15-17 million of them . A Scientist discovered a mutated strain past from animal to humans and yup . Seems odd and extreme but wow , the risk would be mutated strain would lead to ineffective vaccines. On the good news front Experts in UK say the Second Wave has peaked, now i guess we see if it stays elevated for winter or falls way back down in a few weeks. -

I would have rather thrown Mitch McConnell out of Washington Thou politics is so broken regarding representing the American people , Build back better is Likely little more than a marketing campaign by xyz to profit and touted by politicians to be good for us , people should not be deluding themselves into thinking solutions will be coming from Washington , even thou it’s as tempting as a weenie looking at the Nam solution 84 hours out . Maybe more tempting . But yes his speech was good , all I could hear playing was “lie to me I promise I’ll believe “. Call me skeptical . Thou the vibe will be much better at least . -

132k/ 1248 final Todays numbers were telegraphed like a recurving .. wave breaking Typhoon 10 days ago Now looking at the curve and trends we are gonna see a 145-150 k one day end of next week And a 1500 death day same time . Deaths lag and are on up swing 2k is pretty much baked in 2-3 weeks from now . I was out in Nashua this evening and filled my belly with as much Fresh Sushi as those chefs could make , great nite . Life goes on . Besides masks, other change is Only seeing my Grandma on face time . Thankfully at 96 she is in her house . I really hope there is a better plan then the elderly death camps this winter . -

Looks like Both Georgia senate races will run off which means the dems in senate have a shot. Flip both and you tie and then tie breaker would go to Biden/Harris (In all likelihood) You would probably see the global coffers open as wide as the Grand Canyon to fund the Democratic interests which can then pursue the globalist great reset “sustainability”!ideals . -

I would agree with that , because what is the harm. I don’t believe you suspend calling election for Biden thou , bc this is just reasonable suspicion to *look* for widespread fraud , nothin glaring that there has been a game changing degree other than speculation and rumors . I can’t take Trumps word on anything really given his obvious refusal to lose , but it’s definitely worth a full audit of at least one swing state given the size of the mail in vote . What’s the worry. Call it for Biden and if there was widespread issues then take a look and deal with it if that bridge is crossed
