From the same article Until now, based on the available data from the vaccine trials, much of the public health messaging around vaccination has focused on the individual benefit. And the efficacy of the COVID vaccines in protecting against illness is indeed remarkable. But with mounting evidence that confirms effectiveness in reducing transmission, it is time to begin emphasizing the societal benefit—and the personal responsibility to avoid harming others.

Regarding the spread by vaccinated people https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-crucial-vaccine-benefit-were-not-talking-about-enough1/ The totality of these impressive data should bolster confidence that the COVID vaccines are extraordinarily effective in reducing transmission of the virus. This suggests that vaccinating a large majority of Americans throughout the country is our surest bet for returning to normal. Entirely eliminating spread of the virus may be an unreachable goal, but mass vaccination—in the U.S. and around the world—will relegate COVID to the background of our lives.

If it were up to me I would be basing it primarily on factors like hospitalizations and deaths. Cases can be a barometer but prob not as important imho.

People suggested that too much testing was happening last year and it should stop. It’s still a pandemic. Might be a good idea that people know if they are at risk. Not sure how this is hard to grasp.

Bad take last March. Bad take today

About to get hit here

I think it will last longer here but still should drop quickly. Delta driven surges seem to be getting done quickly in many countries. And for those question the toughness of S Biles, please do some research. She is pretty damned tough. Has competed with broken bones etc.

That girl from Alaska killed it

Flipping between Sox and Olympics.

My son is at the game at Fenway tonight

That’s pretty cool. I def don’t remember it at all.

I don’t recall that event. I can’t say I have ever seen smoke like this before.

Isnt it FU? Edit. Nevermind. SM is statute miles.

Last October we had some smoke that I could smell and there were numerous reports of people smelling smoke last week (I couldn’t). Today seems to too those

Smoke smell (and thick haze) here in N central MA

It is officially the Icelandic Phallological Museum. When I saw that in the list I was “what the fook”? Thinking it was some translation thing. Nope. It’s about cocks.

Lol. Saw it first doing a quick museum search on Google. Then I saw it mentioned on a travel group on FB

My aunt has been numerous times (my uncle just a couple). She loves it there and knows a number of people there. We are doing it on our own (driving). Mostly staying just outside of Reykjavik. Doing a horse tour, kayaking at a glacial lagoon to the east. Lots of waterfall stuff. Geysers. A lot of time unplanned so we can drive around and do things spur of the moment.

Checking the weather there daily/almost hourly Volcano activity has also been very inconsistent. Could be bluebird skies and decent lava. Or vog and nothing visible.

I was looking at a list of museums in and around the city and that was in there. I think we will be looking at some puffins or something instead. Lol

13 yo skateboarder. Insane

I tried with a penis museum. Ah well I’m enjoying the Olympics.

Good points. Thanks for that
