I mean I think that's ok at this point. Kids are at greater risk of a lot of other things before Covid. We're going to have to figure out how to get our kids to become nose breathers again and fix their enlarged adenoids.

Not really. I have so many shitty Razr and smartphone videos that I wish I had just enjoyed the moment instead of wasting time capturing something that has the quality of a gameboy camera. Now I am thankful my dad endured the pain and capt

> If you’re suggesting everyone should get Covid without being vaccinated Never have I said that. I'm just saying it's time to get vaccinated and move on with life. Everyone will get Covid at some point.

Yea you have a point in our futile efforts to develop flu vaccines. If we ever have something that's actually deadly infect the world we're probably just screwed. The governments have used all the clout on Covid. Best just to g

I mean we went back to normal after Spanish Flu and Hong Kong flu didn't we? Spanish flu killed 50 million (edit). Hong Kong killed 1 - 4 million. People will forget, it's in our nature to push on and survive. > Technology ad

The world will go back to normal when we accept that everyone will get Covid and there's no need to hide from it. People have some kind of mild mental illness from Covid and they haven't even gotten it. > Still better than cov

Hint it's the internet, mainly social media. It's a poisonous parasitic infection that oozes puss throughout society. If the 2000 election happened in this era, America would have been blown up by now.

In my opinion this is a sign of America becoming a utopia. Most people have so little to worry about we start fighting on stuff that literally doesn't matter.

I think other countries (maybe England) are going to start recommending tetanus shot every 30 years. It's probably one of the biggest medical misconceptions that everyone has. The shot lasts for a very long time. Also the chance of

I've been using Open Pilot for the last 3 months (Rav4 Hybrid). I've really enjoyed it a lot on the highways. It also works really well in stop and go traffic. I'm starting to agree with George Hotz about making driving chi

I have a son in first grade and he's been really down about masking since last year. We've been kind of sad about it it too and worry about him, but honestly this makes me feel a little better. I'm not being sarcastic.

They're filling up with unvaccinated people because people aren't sure how to be sick anymore. Stay at home and check your oxygen. If it dips to 95 or 94 then start thinking about going to Urgent Care. Not really ER. It's

Yes but if we sent everyone a Peloton in March 2020 and required use of it how many people would we have saved by now? Just pay people to use it which seems more ethical than paying people to take the vaccine. Pandemics come and go. We mi

I mean you could get Osha to start banning foods or do whatever with the jurisdiction they have now. Tax sugar out of existence. Then government subsidize all healthier foods. I mean the amount of money we spent no Covid we could have do

I assume I'm not high-risk. One of the people I know that got it was probably considered high risk because he was overweight. Not obese but overweight.

I assume everyone was working on treatments. My sibling works at Pfizer as a Sas programmer / manager (mostly cancer trials) and they're working on a study with an old HIV drug. That's just one small team in a huge company.

It looks like the whole "treatment plan" is only to scare more people into getting vaccines by letting people die. When I had Covid I went to urgent care to get tested. They sent me home with a paper that said I had Covid and tol

We need a backup plan. While there a lot of drugs being developed for the treatment of Covid-19, it's easier to use a drug that has already been around for a while because the safety profile is pretty much known. Spray and pray drug d

Why is everything so black and white in studies, hospital reporting and government policies? There are 5 groups of people. There's really more if you want to get detailed but here are the basics. Vaccinated Vaccinated then infection

More than likely Covid-19 will have the same long term side effects of any other Coronavirus or the Flu. None of the long term side effects seem particularly surprising, other than they are publicized more. More than likely Covid-19 viral

A virus doesn't become more contagious and deadly. It can only do one or the other. Think good, fast, cheap in programing terms. Pick 2.

The vaccine isn't a vaccine, it's a treatment. Cases are a poor indicator. It's time to go back to normal.

Is every hospital getting overwhelmed though? I keep seeing reports of staff getting fired or quitting because of vaccine requirement. Maybe I'm getting fake news?

I took J&J and I agree with you. Why can't be people be scared. I don't judge anyone who won't take the vaccine. I will say that we should have focused more on treatments instead of vaccines and then had a more traditio

It's because they're trying to code the problem instead of solving it end to end. As you can imagine if you're trying to code driving scenarios you're never going to finish. Only Tesla and Comma.ai are on the right tra
