Hoosier Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Missouri is bucking the national trend with covid. They had their highest daily case number today since early February. They are behind the national average in vaccinations, but still almost 40% of the state is fully vaxxed (that is 40% of all Missouri residents, not 40% of vaccine eligible). Combine that with prior infections and now being in summer, it's "impressive" to see rising numbers. The deck is stacked against it in multiple ways and it still found a way to happen.

I don’t think anybody really gives a shyte anymore about COVID. It is what it is. It’s endemic in the population. It’ll eb and rise like any other respiratory virus. Lockdowns and masking are over. If people want a vaccine, it’s there. If they don’t get one and get sick and or die it’s on them. Some will get sick and or die that are vaxed. Life’s full of risks but life goes on. At this point all this testing is pretty useless. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for nations vaccinating their way out of this. Some of us have been saying the world is going to need to get off the treadmill or it will never end.

TalcottWx Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Why don't you respond instead of posting a weenie? You know why you think masks don't work? Because no one actually stayed home and followed precautions like other countries. People in this country are too stupid Not to mention the massive numbers of people who went to all of their family events and didn't wear any 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powderfreak Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Brutal Sox loss. No hitter into the 8th. Pitching only allowed 2 hits and lost 1-0 in bottom of the 9th. The Yankees are going to steamroll us this weekend. The momentum is completely reversed from the first meeting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
