We keep telling you... the unvaccinated are not worried about it. We all know you guys can't wait for those "moron rednecks" refusing the vax to get sick and die. No need to parade such a macabre viewpoint around here, though.
-
Number 1 factor causing a drop in deaths and serous complications, right there. That's the group that we really needed to get vaccinated to end this.
-
You can say this at any time, though. Take all the folks dying at home or in nursing homes now and stuff them all in your local ICU. You will see issues.

Two TOR warnings so far down here in DE but so far just breezy and pouring. How’s CT holding up?
-
If this little storm causes 100,000 outages in CT and very little damage elsewhere does that mean it hit Cat 3 status briefly over the state? Seems to be the logic at play here.
-
I thought the “Hamden destroyed” thing was in 1989? Just because CT’s Africa-tier infrastructure is “heavily damaged” by certain storms does not mean that those storms were necessarily very strong or damaging themselves. CT’s risk of severe and damaging weather is no different than most other northeast states. My place in MD has days long power outages sometimes when a tree falls down. That doesn’t mean I was hit by a hurricane. It means our local power grid was built in 1908.

Always safer to raise ducks than chickens in a rainy tropical high-damage region such as New England.
-
Lol my post came off way harsher than intended on second read.
-
It seems rather silly to pretend restrictions could never return to VT if cases spike in the fall from a variant that evades the vaccines. But ok… maybe FL will bring back masks first. Sure.
-
Let’s hope.
-
Have any examples from this century?
-
Are you talking about some place in CT other than Tolland? A tree falling down there is big news.
-
Or shitty infrastructure that fails in 30 mph winds. CT has generally very benign weather.
-
I could def see VT locking back down.
-
You have posted a lot over the past 13 months about deaths, cases, breakthroughs, failed vaccines, etc. Just seems like these variants have you spooked. You'd most likely be perfectly fine if you got COVID.
-
CT loses power more than Haiti.
-
There is definitely a reason they are doing this now. I haven't quite nailed down why, but none of the obvious answers are good. People need to just turn it off and tune it out.
-
The media coverage of the variants has been absurd and criminal. I have been telling the Boomers in my family to just turn off the TV.
-
Sorry to hear that. Stats are what they are, however.
-
Yeah, and not surprised to hear it's hitting some folks hard. Not a lot of immune system exercise for some people (especially kids) since March 2020.
-
Definitely a surge of summer colds right now. It passed through the summer camps here in MD over the last few weeks.
-
You should just give yourself COVID and then recover (which will be easy) so it doesn't scare you anymore.
-
How are the lake and reservoir levels in SE Mass, tho?
-
Yeah, I am very happy the sane people won out instead of folks such as yourself. It is a relief, trust me. Restores my faith in humanity a bit, although I'm sure it was mostly an economic decision to suddenly lift all mandates basically overnight. Stay safe out there with Delta and Lambda!
-
I think there are still some places out there with leftover mask signage they haven't bothered to take down. I could also see leaving it up as a liability thing and then not enforcing it. Kinda puts the onus on the customer to read the sign and then choose to ignore it anyway. The number of businesses turning away customers over masks must be vanishingly small at this point.
