CNN and FOX were on at the gym today. CNN went straight COVID scare porn for an hour straight. FOX mixed it up a bit more with other stuff, but still about 20 min of COVID talk. I don't know who watches this stuff on a daily basis..but I can see how some people will get riled up by this non-stop mongering. 

Too many people as far as I’m concerned.

Well that's true - their product is information, regardless of whether the prefix "miss" should be attached to the beginning, that is what they proffer, but they do it for money. 

Money money money.  It's a business.  Period.   ( Not preaching to you per se just the straw person...)

And, money moves how money moves.  Otherwise, ...                                                  THEY DO NOT HAVE A BUSINESS         

So, in every business arrangement ..there is a marketer, and a purchaser.    Remove the destination, ...removes the business relationship, and money no longer moves. 

This so-obvious-a-monkey-could-spell-it-out is really a reflection of we the people, in order to form a more perfect union ...lust for drama to the point where [apparently] enough population not only wants it ... their is even addictive patterning to it. 

This actually is the veneer in the whole examination done by 60 min a few years ago, about the e-tropic addiction problem associated with tech.  It really opens just a Pandora's box of sociological issues ...blah blah...  ( also, check out the "Social Dilemma" on NETFLIX )

But straw men and women make up a huge population and that is a sufficient pool to keep the IMC rich and the rest of us pining for truth that is caused to be missed.

If one part is false does it negate his whole premise.

That means the vaccine appears to prevent people from getting sick enough that they develop symptoms

No but you cam still spread it if vaccinated. Unfortunate but it dont bother me.

COVID sucks masks vaccines blah blah blah…

Onto more interesting banter - looks like Sox are interested in Max Scherzer (WAS) and Kyle Schwarber (CHC). Nice to see them in a buying mood.

Tanner Houck was just optioned back to Worcester they announced 5 min ago… whoa.  The dude has been dealing.  Likely to free up a roster spot for a trade… would seem they might add a pitcher soon.  Something is in the works, no other reason to send him back to AAA.

900 in ptown 7 in the hospital 74% were vaccinated, who is causing a problem again. 

Why are you focused on 900 people in MA? Why are you focused on people who are protected against severe covid and death?

The entire point is UNVACCINATED people. Our state is not having a massive spike like the southern republican states.

There goes PFZ and MRNA's stock.

I think we might need one approx once a year. There's just no way to know yet until there are some studies. I'm encouraged that we aren't just jumping right to it without evidence.

 

I believe Israel is starting third doses on Aug 1

I havent seen that article but Out of curiousity, how many unvaccinated were tested compared with vaccinated and what percentage were showing symptoms?

I would expect the data moving forward to be skewed if unvax need tests for work and vax do not.

Not sure.  It didn’t provide that detail.  
This was being reported by a news reporter based on an email she received from the health department for the county

Rosenthal and heyman have both backpeddled and say three other teams just as close

They are all trying to call each other’s bluffs.  Wouldn’t surprise me if someone from the Nationals side leaks that deal imminent with Padres so other teams throw in more and up and wagers.
