Sweden had 335 new reported cases yesterday.  Georgia is running around 1,500 per day.

Sweden is reporting deaths per day under 5 now.

Unless we don't ever get an effective vaccine.

Hey, I'm very hopeful we will.

But I don't believe we will.

Regardless, we can't pin our hopes on it.  And we certainly can't make policy based on it.

My kid in Texas had it in March, 32, in great physical condition, found it very unpleasant, is fine now.  I was trying to figure out a way to get out there to take care of him if needed.  He told me not to come, he'd manage.

He did, walking the dog was apparently one issue, but the dog seemed to understand, and then getting food delivered was an issue at that point in time.

I am pretty optimistic on an effective vaccine.  I also think a lot of folks won't want to get it because of the President or the CDC or Bill Gates or Soros and the Kochs or the illuminati or the egg lobby.

If we ever get a vaccine, I suspect a large percentage of the country will willingly get it.  But it'll take a while.  I'll certainly let others go first and wait a few months.

Exactly. I'll willingly get the vaccine.

But I'll flex my privilege and not be first in line, because I can WFH and distance effectively. Someone else can be the guinea pigs for the first few months and I'll follow afterwards. 

Maybe I'll test it out on the kids first, especially if they're going to be physically in school. If they get the vaccine that's one more bit of protection keeping me from virus exposure.

Speaking of, Orange County moved from the Purple Tier [bad] to the Red Tier [less bad] a few weeks ago, so as of Tuesday kids are technically allowed to go back to school. Mine are scheduled to return Sep 29, Oct 1, and Oct 8, depending on district and grade. All schools still offer a distance learning option for people who chose not to send their kids back. 

Thankfully my special-needs son is in a district with a "hybrid" model splitting between morning and afternoon classes, but the special needs classes is full-day instruction. He needs that, so I'm happy they didn't go half-day.

The other school was going to make masks voluntary for kids. They pivoted and made them mandatory, which is great. I won't have to rely just on my own threats to make sure that the kids wear their masks 100% of the time when they have friends who don't... Everyone has to wear them.

Yeah, my 11yo son will be going to in-person school in 3 weeks.  About 50% of kids his age are already back, but we opted to wait until the end of the first grading period to switch him from online to in-person.

My 13yo daughter will be going to in-person school in 5 weeks, which would be the end of her second grading period.  Again, about half the students are already back, and they're anticipating it'll be close to 90% when my daughter goes back.

Our district is almost 3 weeks in with schools running at 50% of kids whose parents voluntarily chose the in-person option, and so far no cases or other issues reported at our regional schools.

Ours is requiring a morning temperature check using a Bluetooth thermometer and phone app, and you have to certify with the app that they're good to go before they're allowed out of the car at drop-off.
