Coronavirus Thread VI: Are We Nearly There Yet? (READ OP)

[The Huskar Social Union]

San Francisco may be the first major US city to reach herd immunity. Eighty percent of the population has received at least one dose of the vaccine and individual cases do not appear to be turning into outbreaks.

Excellent stuff.

Yes, it is definitely promising.

Outdoor Mask mandates Seem not to have effected covid #'s, Indoors did.

I have a couple of issues with the article, but it makes its basic point.

The chance of catching covid outdoors is so unbelievably low. My mom would constantly be like "you should take two masks even if you aren't going in anywhere" and it's like "I'm gonna be outside with two friends. I need exactly zero masks."

However, indoors mask mandates worked.

"Friends" ?

This may be a cultural thing, but when I'm feeling particularly close to my friends, I lean in. Doesn't matter if there's no-one nearby to hear, it just feels right to get close and speak softly.

Which I probably wouldn't do if I was wearing a mask. But that's my point. Wearing a mask changes the way we interact with people. Raising your voice, is usually not friendly.

Never mind. If the shape of your mouth is essential to your identity, then do your thing.

But what does the shape of my mouth have to do with it?

I always bring one with me as a precaution even if im going outside just in case i need to dip in doors somewhere. Same with some hand sanitizer.

Same with some hand sanitizer.

I don't like smearing my body with weird chemicals, but I don't mind so much when they're 80% ethanol.

Probably keeping a sugar cane farm in business.

I don't bring hand sanitiser, since at this point basically everywhere has some, but I have started treating a mask like my wallet and bringing one every time I leave the house, even if I expect not to need it.

Vaccines cause people to magnetise now apparently. And its linked to 5G towers.

This rampant malicious stupidity is not funny any more. It is legitimately dangerous.

Nonsense, if I have to go to the bathroom I will use a bush and toilet paper ain't a concern cause leaves exist.

It means that you and I have fallen into a General Misunderstanding Substratum of the forum, and nothing you type will appear truly to me, nor anything I type appear in recognizable form to you!

The only recourse is for you and I to put each other on Ignome. The Ignome filter will have some confusing effects, but at least not as bad as the GMS filter.

Just dont do it with poison ivy or anything prickly.

When I happen to go outside, I usually bring a mask too. It just feels weird now without wearing or bringing one outside.

Cool, the age of quirks! I wonder what kind that I'll be getting once I get vaccinated

Speaking of vaccines, I heard that there is a free vaccination event in my uni. The problem is, the uni is located in another town and 'border checks' are tightening in some places. Not to mention the recent family drama *sighs*
Idk whether I should just wait for one in my own city or prepare to head to uni for one free AstraZeneca shot.

I usually dont wear it outside at this point, just stick it on if i go in somewhere. The only time id wear the mask outside is if im going past a large group of people or am waiting in line outside somewhere to go in.

Just one dose? That's great. Even 80% full vaccination stopping the spread, would be quite encouraging.

I hear scary things about the new strains. A ratio of 6 means more than 80% herd immunity is necessary.

And 68% are fully vaccinated. Any sign of herd immunity is definitely promising though.

In ny we seem to be using 70% as a standard. Probably take a week more or so to see if that was a good idea.

It's long since become part of my pocket check before leaving the house. Front right - keys, back right - wallet, front left - phone, back left - facemask.

I accidentally forgot some hand sanitizer when I was out last weekend. I almost felt naked without it.

It seems like one of those things where you don't know you've achieved it until you see it in action.

Apparently San Francisco has an advantage because it has relatively few children, who aren't eligible for the vaccine yet as well. I don't know how that works for NYC or other cities in the USA.

Personally though, anywhere achieving herd immunity seems like a light at the end of the tunnel.

For me that moment was when I sat down inside a diner and had a bacon, Swiss and Mushroom omelet. It had been 14 months since I ate anywhere near inside an enclosed restaurant . It felt good.

We felt the same when we ate at a Denny’s several weeks ago. It felt nice, although I was nervous.

Just got my first vaccine, when do I get my powers?
