I just connected with some of my best friends via text message. We are going to our favorite Mexican restaurant Friday night and eat, I mean get falling down drunk and eat nachos and salsa, to celebrate our vaccination and the positive effects it has made on our lives. Getting back to normal is a mind bending thing for me. I'm so happy! (hopefully it'll last).

 

I don't want to be a buzz-kill but the CDC is making a "greater good" choice with their new mask guidance.  Be careful.  Know your local area.  The CDC is thinking in terms of the whole of the United States and they and the federal government want to "reward" people for being good and getting vaccinated.  Still a lot of unknowns out there, as far as variants, plus vaccinated people can still get COVID.  Sorry.  Buzzz....killed.

Here's my region.

Alabama looks pretty good now but you guys had some high numbers for a while.

Awesome!     

Oh... And don't drive.   

Your dog is so gonna love you when you wake up in the middle of the night with the hot pepper and tequila sweats.

My entire family is vaccinated and overall Colorado is more than 40% vaccinated (even with the anti-vax right wing in some areas.) Add to that the number of post-covid people and we're up there in the 70% or better range.  I'll be very comfy moving around with the related guidelines as they develop.

Payback for Buddy's flatulence throughout the night. He eats so fast his food isn't digested enough until about 1a.m then he lets them rip. He used to sleep opposite of me, his head at my feet and the fart cannon at my head. 

Covid-19 to dog poots....

Now that's my flatulence written out.

 

 

 

 

England is open again!  COVID is gone!

• Gathering limits have been eased. Outdoor gatherings are limited to 30 people and indoor gatherings are limited to 6 people or 2 households (each household can include a support bubble, if eligible).
• People can attend indoor and outdoor events, including live performances, sporting events and business events. Attendance at these events is capped according to venue type, and attendees should follow the COVID-secure measures set out by those venues.

I'm sure the NFL and MLS will be the same.

They obviously don't know about the Skagit Valley choir.  Most aren't even trying to fake it with a chin diaper.  Plus the India variant.  Karma?

Bad news for Brits.  Thankfully, the US is safe.

Young people and COVID.  Thankfully, I'm not at risk.  My young days are past.

Some people appear to experience long COVID even after only a mild bout with the disease. The phenomenon seems to have lingering effects on cardiovascular health and cognitive function. Patients also say they experience fatigue.

Shame about your youthful days being in the past, a REAL shame!

I completely understand. Some even end up with a very painful right arm for some unknown reason! [emoji848]

Nah, the lung warts are far too large for my tastes.

Lung warts!?!?!? You must be German!!! Next thing we know, you will be talking about Brustwarze!

 

 

Truth is coming out. Scientists are closely examining the virus and found 4 positively charged adjacent amino-acids in the spike protein.  THIS CAN NOT HAPPEN IN NATURE.

The gig is up Mainland China!...and possibly Fauci/Daszek funding.... who are experts on the details. How long can they hide?
