Georgia?

Oh yeah good point. I guess I'm already trying to erase the Tom Herman era from my brain.

I don't think Florida has ever played Texas. Ask OU about SEC defense, though.
*3 games pre-WWII

Anyway, is Texas the 2nd or 3rd-most fertile recruiting state?

Yeah I had to look it up, Horns are 2-0-1 all-time against the Gators, with the most recent meeting in 1940.

And I have no idea where Texas would rank as far as "fertile recruiting grounds." It likely depends on how you measure it-- absolute numbers with D1-A scholarships? Per capita? Or something a little deeper, like number of high school players from Texas that are on NFL rosters?

I don't follow recruiting very closely so can't really comment on where Texas might be ranked by those metrics.

Somebody should probably start deleting off-topic posts around here.

Minnesota's numbers today were quite low (only 3,000 and change). It was also too good to be true, as the % positive was back up due to the smallest test volume since October.

December: Health care workers and nursing home residents will likely be the first people to receive the vaccine, as the panel recommended.

Up to 40 million doses could be available to Americans before the end of this year, from a combination of Pfizer’s and Moderna’s vaccines. That would be enough to vaccinate the three million people who live in long-term-care facilities, as well as most of the country’s 21 million health care workers.

January: Keep in mind that both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines require a second dose a few weeks later to be effective. So an initial batch of 40 million doses would be enough to vaccinate only 20 million people.

By early next year, Pfizer and Moderna are likely to be able to ship about 70 million doses per month, Moncef Slaoui, a top federal vaccine official, told The Washington Post yesterday. People will likely receive the shots at doctor’s offices, hospitals and pharmacies, as well as at specially created clinics in some places, my colleague Katie Thomas says.

February and March: The next priority groups are likely to be people over the age of 65 (and especially those over 75); people with medical conditions that put them at risk of death if infected; and essential workers, like those in education, food, transportation and law enforcement.

One exception to this second wave of vaccine recipients may be people who have already had the virus, making them immune from it for at least some period of time.

If other companies in addition to Pfizer and Moderna receive approval for their vaccines, the total number shipped each month could reach 150 million by March, Slaoui said.

April, May and June: The most likely scenario is that even people who don’t qualify as a priority — like healthy, nonessential workers younger than 65 — will begin receiving the vaccine by the spring. The vast majority of Americans could be vaccinated by early summer.

Once that happens, life will still not immediately return to normal, partly because the vaccines are not 100 percent effective. “There will still be risks to people,” as Caitlin Rivers, a Johns Hopkins epidemiologist, told me.

Looks like we'll be in pretty good shape by next summer.

accine side effects.

Much of the vaccine hoopla is focused on the December 10 FDA meeting and subsequent vaccine distribution. Much less attention has focused on informing, and preparing, the public on what to expect once you actually get the vaccine. I think this is a mistake. We must be transparent about what people should expect.

After vaccination, close to 100% of people will experience a local symptom. This includes pain at injection site, redness, and some swelling. I don’t think any of us are surprised about these, considering the vaccination comes with a needle.

A much smaller amount of people will experience intense (defined as preventing daily activities) side effects. In the Moderna trial, these included fatigue in 9.7% of participants, muscle pain in 8.9%, joint pain in 5.2%, and headache in 4.5%. Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine trial, side effects included fatigue (3.8%) and headache (2%). Some participants described that they “felt similar to a severe hangover” or “slight flu symptoms”. Together, 2% of participants got a fever. Chances of side effects are higher when you get the second dose (30 days after the first dose). No other severe systemic events were reported. In other words, 19,000 people did not have a severe event from the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccination.

Why the more intense side effects? The Pfizer vaccination is made up of small strands of mRNA. Basically, it’s a bunch of instruction manuals that need to be sent to your cells. However, in order for them to get there they must be transported in tiny fat bubbles (see picture labeled "lipid nanoparticle"). Some people may have some intense side effects from the fat bubbles.

The higher rate of intense reactions is more than people are typically accustomed to. However, the side effects are temporary. The side effects are normal. And, actually, side effects are a good sign that your immune system is working.

With COVID19 killing 1 in 200 people infected and the possibility of returning to a normal life, this is a small sacrifice to pay. We know that these vaccines are 95% effective. So, if you’re one of the unlucky few with side effects, have confidence in knowing that the vaccine will work.

As one immunologist said, “take Tylenol and suck it up for a day”.

Whats interesting is some media outlets reporting side affects without mentioning that it only affects 5% to 10% of those being vaccinated

Basically they paint it like everyone will have these side affects which is way over blown
