That never gets old

Ginxy’s mention of immunity news for me searching. This is promising. But one study https://www.healthline.com/health-news/how-long-does-immunity-last-after-covid-19-what-we-know#What-we-currently-know-about-COVID-19-immunity

Anecdotally, people I know who have been tested are generally being told to expect a 3-7 day turnaround time but are getting the results in 1-3 days. Sometime like Ginx said under a day. I think it depends on where you are getting it done as well

Could I ask why you don’t get the flu vaccine? I know a bunch of people who do not. I know it isn’t largely effective, but my understanding is that it is incredibly safe.
-
Ah. I stand corrected. I’m just going off my memory of what a health care worker was telling me yesterday. I could easily be getting my facts wrong
-
I’ve heard that the manufacturers have had trouble producing enough of some of the reagents (or something?) to keep up with demand for this. Hospitals in this area have been running short/borrowing from each other. A fixable problem but current

So far no evidence of spread in the parks/resorts. They are doing something right there. Cleaning like heck. Masking. Keeping people distant They did test out some fireworks at MK last night.

Our daughter is a theater bug. Nothing since March. The remote learning is awful for some kids. Just awful. I was in a meeting about one of my students yesterday. He has been able to come into the building since we have been hybrid and does great. When he is at home it is a complete shitshow. The chaos and generally awful lives some kids have at home is insane. For some kids remote is perfect. But that is rare. The vast majority of kids in the middle are getting by ok but it is far from ideal.

Yeah. It’s weird. My son’s university has been testing everyone twice a week and have had very few positives since August. Yet a church service in Fitchburg has resulted in over 150 cases with a couple of dozen currently (as of yesterday) hospitalized.

Covid worldwide has killed 1.4 million so far as per Worldometers.

A few. No kids that I know of. One teacher (since recovered) in my building. A couple of parents/guardians. So far nothing very serious. Mostly one to three day stays.
-
Between the vaccine, natural immunity, and hopefully better hygiene and cleaning methods I would expect this. Some things might have to shut down. Very targeted though. Over the weekend my school district announced that after this week we would be moving from hybrid to full remote for 2 weeks. Not that big a deal since the two days before Thanksgiving would be remote anyway. I would not be shocked if they extend it through December
-
After going months since hearing of any friends/coworkers etc, it seems to be really taking off in my life. In the last week I know of at least a dozen people who either have it or have recently had it. plus numerous students of mine have had it or have immediate family members they live with have it or have recently had it. Starting to get out of control.

A guy I know in my town designs and builds snow guns and tests them out at the local bump. Snow Realm

They put out a ton more snow. And can be directed more easily. More efficient as well.

A few flakes in the air among Rte 2 and here in the Hubb of the Loserverse

That edgy food tastes great though. I don't see how the whole industry can be shut down. Going to be a tough year for many resorts. Just go bare minimum and hope for a good year next year

In my classroom we have a huge gallon jug of sanitizer and are having kids use it every time they enter the room. Handwashing is better though

Nice severe thunderstorm warning
