I have a contest I want to propose to you and Husker. Team Golf match at Torrey Pines. Crush/Hound vs Espola/Husker? After the match we will take Hound down to Blacks for some surf lessons and sight seeing. We need to put all of our differences aside and come together for the betterment of humanity and the kids. Tomorrow is my last day, I promise.

The "decoupling" you mention is nothing more than the fact that vaccines are better at reducing hospitalizations than reducing infections. (96% versus 79%)As expected, cases seem decoupled from hospitalizations & deaths. The coming freak out over another wave of the Delta variant and masking/business restrictions/school restrictions is going to be a nasty clash.
The Delta variant is not driving a surge in hospitalization rates in England, health data shows. (Published 2021)
Although the number of coronavirus infections has risen sharply in recent weeks, hospitalization rates remain low.www.nytimes.com
Be careful how you word it. Your above wording is quite misleading.
Sigh.
Well, I think the one on the left will win, moo moo moo....lol!!! Look Grace, I need serious help today. All my old avatars have come back in my little brain and are all talking to me. Basically, they want a chance to say goodbye as well. Today is officially my last day to play with all of you. I mean that 100%. No more. I believe after this stunt Dom will have no choice but to block me and all my avatars. I want to be blocked and I need to be blocked for my own wellbeing and safety.
I agree bro. New Wave Dave tried to log in but he forgot his password. He sent me the following for all of you to read.
"Goodbye to all of you and I wish you all nothing but the best for all your dd."

The bad news is life is not only super hard, it's not fair either. However, I want everyone to know that after today, life will start being based on merit and what you do with your talent(s). It will still take hard work folks, but all work will be rewarded fairly and equally based off effort and results. I too want to say, "farewell my dear friends from the past." Make this years July 4th one to remember.

Or one could quit being a weak POS like that guy (yes I’ve seen him interviewed with his partner and they are A-typical insecure, compensating for something, weak minded jerks, sound familiar?) and be a man. The game is obvious.

"Emerging data suggest people infected with the Delta variant - the variant behind most of Australia's current cases and highly prevalent around the world - are experiencing symptoms different to those we commonly associated with COVID earlier in the pandemic."
--
"While we still have more to learn about the Delta variant, this emerging data is important because it shows us that what we might think of as just a mild winter cold - a runny nose and a sore throat - could be a case of COVID-19."

Early Reports on Delta Variant Symptoms Indicate They Are Different From Normal
We've been living in a COVID world for more than 18 months now.

Had a family picnic at the beach for the 4th. Was an uncle in law there who has served in the uniformed public health corp and was posted to nih in the early 2000s. He didn’t know anything about how things went down in the pandemic but did have interesting Fauci gossip. Apparently they called him Napoleon and he had a reputation for being grouchy and he had a chip on his shoulder about how he was criticized after the aids crisis.
But we know that you are too classy to pass on any gossip like that, right?
Funny coming from you Magoo.
I don't believe I have ever quoted an uncle-in-law or any other conveniently anonymous relative, but my cousin's cousin's girlfriend's father suspects that people who criticize Fauci without specific reason are just upset that he made t look so bad.
The" Napoleon" jibe is fairly common for a short person in charge of a large group of people. (Boldly stated behind the target's back with the door closed)
As for Fauci's reputation in the AIDS crisis, it didn't take long to find a more balanced viewpoint --

You can please some of the people some of the time but you can’t please all the people all of the time. Like reading product reviews some people just had a bad experience that sometimes you see right in the review is mostly or partially their own fault . . . or they just have an (political) axe to grind.
Interesting correlation between covid cases and birthdays.
Birthdays were associated with a 31% increase in positive covid tests. Child birthdays were associated with a greater increase than adult birthdays.
Simplest explanation is that indoor birthday gatherings were spreading coronavirus.
Unscientific back of the envelope says, if about one third of birthday party attendees were immediate family, then the birthday parties can account for about 3-4% of all cases.

What’s more interesting is that people in stay at home order states were just as likely to test positive after a birthday than those without. It points to one of the reasons the us lockdowns were ineffective: they didn’t/couldn’t control against these types of informal gatherings.
