I thought a few months back we'd end up with surplus vaccine here because of the antivaxx situation.  Seems to be happening, I'm seeing all sorts of inducements now to get a vaccine, versus hoping to find a place somewhere to provide it.

I should have held out for a free pint of beer, or something

Miss Jo on Twitter: "Dr Fauci wrote about the “risk worth taking” in 2011 in The Washington Post. That risk was “gain of function” experimentation on how viruses can mutate and jump to humans. It is extraordinary that he now denies supporting such research now. And disingenuous. https://t.co/jfF704vRvS" / Twitter

He appears to be talking about influenza studies in Europe and the US about zoonotic behaviors.  I'd agree it's important to try and understand that.

His denial I think referred to GoF in terms of lethality in China, not the same thing, if I read this right.

Covid crisis going from bad to worse in India. From TIME:

"The true scale of the COVID-19 outbreak in India is impossible to accurately quantify. Officially, confirmed daily cases are plateauing just under 400,000 but remain higher than any other country has seen during the pandemic. Experts warn that the real numbers are far bigger, and may still be rising fast as the virus rips through rural India, where two-thirds of the population lives and where testing infrastructure is frail. The University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) estimates the true number of new daily infections is around 8 million—the equivalent of the entire population of New York City being infected every day. Official reports say 254,000 people have died in India since the start of the pandemic, but the IHME estimates the true toll is more than 750,000—a number researchers predict will double by the end of August. Since the beginning of May, dozens of bodies have washed up on the banks of the river Ganges, with some villagers saying they were forced to leave the dead in the water amid soaring funeral costs and shortages of wood for cremation."

Well the Wife had Pfizer #2 yesterday.  Started feeling real poorly last night, I think she even had a slight fever.  Today she feels horrible.  I think she will probably feel bad the rest of the day and hopefully tomorrow be better.  

I wonder if we applied the side effects that we are willing to accept from this vaccine to other vaccines what else could we stamp out?

They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

I take Moderna #2 next Monday and am hoping for a mild-to-zero reaction.  I've got to grab the RV on Wednesday and prep it, then take it to Circuit of the Americas racetrack on Thursday to set up for the weekend-long NASCAR racing event.  

Important stuff!

I had a reaction to my second Shingles shot (Shingrix).  We went to bed and I had uncontrollable shivering, I put a pencil in my mouth it was so bad.  The wife got a Tylenol and it stopped in a few minutes.

COVID made me tired, but I figured that meant my immune system was reacting.

Fully vaccinated people no longer need to wear a face mask or stay six feet away from others in most settings, whether outdoors or indoors, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will say in updated public health guidance to be released Thursday, two people briefed on the matter told NBC News.

There are a handful of instances where people will still need to wear masks — in a health-care setting, at a business that requires them or on an airplane — even if they’ve had their final vaccine dose two or more weeks ago, CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky is expected to tell reporters at a press briefing scheduled for 2 p.m. ET.

The announcement from the CDC comes just ahead of the Memorial Day and Fourth of July parade season. President Joe Biden has said he hopes to see enough Americans vaccinated by Independence Day to safely hold outdoor gatherings.

To the extent these are guidelines, I have no issue, and a business can require them, also fine with me.

Not fine with me.

The messaging sucks. 

Why should I wear a mask if I'm fully vaccinated and had Covid already?

Why should I get vaccinated if I still have to wear a mask?

How does anyone know who and who is not fully vaccinated?

What a crock O' shit.
