  1. CDC finds less than 1 percent of fully vaccinated people got COVID-19 https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/548440-cdc-5800-breakthrough-covid-19-cases-documented-among-millions-who-are?fbclid=IwAR21_N3d8TElv223lvgeTrCWX1ZMr2MHp3wbe6_mxYj_AtyXyIh7g5ni6_s 1 percent of the people who contracted breakthrough infections died. So, if you get the vaccine, that is a .00008% chance of dying from the virus if you get the vaccine. 12500 to 1 Vaccinate everyone in the country, the most number of deaths that would occur would be 26400 (assuming a population of 330 million and everyone receives still gets the virus, which is impossible but never mind) In others words, significantly less than die in a typical flu season.
  2. Exactly, we have no idea where we will be in the spring of 2022.
  3. We know natural immunity last around 10 months. The general duration is 8-12 months I believe. I expect the vaccines to be similar. I would hope in a year from now covid is an endemic and no longer controlling the world. https://www.prevention.com/health/a34864421/tom-hanks-rita-wilson-covid-19-antibodies/
  4. Yeah you're not fully vaccinated until 2 weeks after the second dose according to CDC
  5. I doubt that happens now, that forecast is based on current vaccination rates. Not to mention J&J being taken off the shelf will greatly reduce that percentage.
  6. 50% will have first dose by end of this week. 60-70% is vaccine threshold. I'd say about 3/10 are not getting it. With prior infections, that is herd immunity, unless variants cause this thing to last indefinitely....In which case things will never be normal again. Moderna applying for full FDA approval. https://abc7ny.com/covid-vaccine-veterans-connecticut-coronavirus/10513978/

  9. I really hope there isn't a booster shot every 6 months though. I think I'm going to be a one and done guy. That would especially be true if the vaccine made me sick for a few days. The first shot was just a sore arm for a day.
  10. There are exceptions to everything. But statistics dont lie. Vaccine protects me against severe covid and long term covid complications. If a statistician did a risk/benefit analysis for you specifically it would 100% be in favor of getting the vaccine. But I respect each persons choice. Just don't make it seem like you are some zeus and can't get really sick from covid, because that simply isn't true. I know you've had it, but other athletes are getting pretty sick from it. Hughes was on several IVs and lost 10 lbs, and he is an elite athlete with the best care in the world, one of the best skaters in the NHL. I mean I can deadlift 500 lbs and run 3 miles in 20-21 minutes and I got it.
  11. Tell that to Quinton Hughes on the Vancouver Canucks.
  12. New England about to get a paste bomb in higher elevations. 12"+ in some spots
  13. She most likely got the virus before the vaccine was able to work. You can still get the virus but those symptoms seem a little high once vaccinated.
  14. Almost done finalizing my trip out west next month. Hitting up Grand Canyon, Capital Reef, Bryce Canyon, Zion national park, Canyonland, and Moab.
  15. Getting A/C installed this weekend and finally getting my fence fixed in the next few months just waiting on supplies. Still waiting to hear back from my lawsuit 6 weeks later...
  16. This is the perfect running outside weather. Not cold and not hot with little wind.
  17. Looks like a pretty big snow event for the Adirondacks.
  18. 3 years ago my wife and I were at a wedding in Perry New York. At 8 pm we were eating dessert with my good friend who was 27 at the time, at 9 pm be passed out on the ground and after an hour of trying to bring him back he was dead at 10 pm. There was a doctor and several nurses at the wedding. Brain aneurysm at 27. I'll never forget that night.
  19. A personal story I just got from my wife in regards to the J&J vaccine. My wifes friends friend from church got the J&J on Friday. She was dizzy over the weekend. She passed out and went to the ER. She had a blood clot in her brain, the clot is now draining and is in stable condition. Pretty scary stuff...I'd stick with Moderna/Pfizer.
  20. It's pretty bad. My instagram and facebook pages are on fire with online protests on requiring a vaccine for bills game lol. I think I'm going to stay out of those, people are mad.
