I started thinking about employees who don't want the vaccine but want to continue to WFH. If your employer decides that everyone must come back to the office, does the person at home get to stay home, can they get fired or could they sue if threatened with firing? Gonna get ugly I'd think. Sent from my Pixel 4a using Tapatalk

that's just the 5G messaging back to Gates

Weird, I get periodic PCP emails and thought this message was odd given where we're supposed to be going with the pandemic. Maybe it's not covid-risk related at all but cost cutting/saving method? I know telemed was being used more often since last year, but they seem to want to make this more permanent. Not a bad thing, but I just interpreted it as more of "the pandemic is getting worse, we must distance from each other more" kinda message. "During the COVID-19 Pandemic, with your health and safety in mind, we are making changes to how we interact with our patients. We have started using Telehealth visits (computer and smartphone video visits) through our patient portal."

75% will still be wearing masks

who knows. Why tell the public that if you're vaccinated you can remove your masks outside, but have to wear them in big crowds. Some may interpret that message as masks work better than vaccines.

Let's see if we can get Stein'd through Fri. Frcst is for 0.5-1.0". Doubting that.

I can't keep my thumb out of my nose

thanks man.

glad the govt is telling me I can return to normal now. I don't know what I would do without them.

certainly seemed to work for the a-hole guys in HS and college in picking up all the hot girls

same here. I'm actually yelling in my car because of it.

Added a little clarification to one of the article quotes: " Despite the impending updates, Dr. C. Michael Gibson, a professor at Harvard Medical School, urged people to continue to wear masks indoors. Vaccinated and non-vaccinated people are likely "very safe" to be outside without a mask, according to Gibson. "

Isn't Biden supposed to have some presser today about masks?

How many suits is TSLA having to defend for accidents like the most recent one where the idiot driver wasn't in the driver's seat, but the car still crashed on auto pilot.

There may not be a causal link (yet?), but the % of cases are much higher than AZ's clotting issue. From the report above:" The condition developed in one out of 100,000 people who received the shot, while the incidence rate for men of 18 to 30 years was one in 20,000. Two people died and the rest recovered. ". while no link found between clots and myocarditis, what is it about the vaccine that is potentially responsible for these issues, as they are the same as actual covid infection. Does the spike protein cause so much inflammation either due to vax dose and/or carrier molecule? This won't help more people want to get vaccinated.

Wondering if we're done here

20% RH lately isn't helping.

I certainly hope this message never becomes reality, but from the same people who said 2 wks to flatten the curve, anything is possible.

sure, if u say so

what I disagree with is the notion we should all wear masks seasonally to ward off respiratory pathogens that have existed for centuries, excluding covid.

totally disagree, but not debating this.
