NY Times reported that over 900,000 children had been hospitalized with COVID since the start of the pandemic. The actual number? 63,000. 

The lie was so bad that when NY Times got caught exaggerating child hospitalization cases by at least 837,000 they had to issue a retraction.

I'll be at Circuit of the Americas this weekend with 300,000 other people.  I'll let you know how many masks I count. ;)


Well it took more than one hand, but I'd say it was fewer than 50, in crowds over 300,000 for the whole weekend.

There might have been some Tito's consumed over the course of the weekend.  Goes great with OJ...

It seems largely out of the news now, aside from some stuff about child vaccines.

Was there as well for the Sunday race, with my mask, but only to wear when it was required aboard the shuttle buses. 1 out of 50 wearing masks is exactly my observational estimate as well, amongst the 140,000 Sunday-only attendees. And of those 1 out of 50 I half wonder whether it was as a way to keep the sun off their face. (Great event, btw! Brother is a big Max Verstappen fan and i was glad to buy him some gear.)

I got my 3rd shot last week. *shrug* When can we just bundle with the flu shot?

Moderna is working on a bundle, apparently.

I'd rather not. Flu shots screw me up sometimes.

We went to CVS to get both flu and the third shot at the same time, but two shots.  My arm was slightly sore, no other after effects at all, not even fatigue.  The shooter told me folks had fewer reactions to shot 3.

I hope the flu shot is on  target again.

I did the flu shot back in Sept.

Not sure what current guidance is for Moderna booster, for people that don't have complicating risk factors?  I'm at about 5 months out right now, from my second.

Nobody asked us any questions about conditions. Our last dose was 4/21.

I don't feel any need to "get away with it" and avoid questions.  I'll go, when the guidance indicates I should.  The guidance is based on THE SCIENCE, so I'm good with following that.

That Twitter feed you're citing looks more like a misinformation shill than a legitimate source. Anything from there should be treated as false unless and until proven otherwise.


Read the linked report (or at least check the tables on pages 19 – 20). It’s a formal report issued by the UK’s NHS system. Granted the deaths (1613 Vaccinated Vs 722 Unvaccinated) aren’t broken down according to how many were sampled from each group, which could sway the percentages of representation.

When it comes to bastardizing data, the anti-intellectualism noticeable elsewhere on the internet usually recycles the following pattern:

-Demand data
-Put the burden on everyone else to retrieve data
-Dismiss data as conspiracy or misinformation when it’s finally posted and doesn’t agree with assumption
-Still claim that science is on your side
-Repeat

It’s the type of ingrown logic endemic to underfunding the public education system for over forty years.
