"get rid of"....so your goalpost is now at zero COVID as the goal?
The goalpost, as always, is sustained R<1.
Not quite the same as eradication, as we are both aware. But both fall into the category of "getting rid of" the virus.
Or "getting rid of" those who lost 37 lbs in 12 months and think differently and have zero fear of death?
Took roughly 13 months, but even CNN is now starting to understand that a healthy lifestyle can reduce the impact of this “deadly disease” (not my words or those of the extremes right media outlets....)

A few gems:
- The Kaiser Permanente study, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, looked at nearly 50,000 adults with Covid-19. The research found that those who met the target of the US Department of Health and Human Services' physical activity guidelines -- of at least 150 minutes per week of moderate to vigorous physical activity -- showed significantly lower incidences of hospitalization, ICU admission and death due to Covid-19 illness.
- With all those benefits regular movement brings, it may not be that surprising that physical activity meeting these guidelines also would lessen the severity of symptoms of Covid-19. Indeed, acute Covid illness is just one of the many potential negative impacts of sedentary behavior, a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, stroke and some cancers.
To date, the risk factors for severe Covid-19, as identified by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, include being of advanced age, being male, and having underlying comorbidities, such as diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular disease.
Many of the listed risk factors are difficult — if not impossible — to mitigate, so it's understandable if you feel powerless in the face of some of them. However, the results of this new study could, arguably, add inactivity to the top of that list.
Reduce risk of severe Covid-19 with regular activity, study says
Physical inactivity is strongly associated with more severe Covid infection and a heightened risk of dying from the disease, found a large US study published online in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. Here's how to get more active, with just 22 minutes of daily movement.

Well, with 40% of marines having refused the vaccine, the number of vaccine reluctant probably going up after J&J, people ready to move on from the restrictions now that soon almost everyone who wants a vaccine having gotten it, emergency authorization label still on the vaccines, children under 16 still ineligible, new variants that can break through the vaccines (however rare), even the mRNA vaccines not 100% effective, the border crisis (actually we seem to have 2 problem borders now for COVID) and most of the world not reaching substantial vaccination levels until 2022, it's going to be a tough haul. Or we can worry about deaths and serious illnesses instead of cases.....
Listen up to those crippled with fear and those who practice fear to their little ones. WTHUP!!! Stop eating all that red meat & red wine and stop acting like you read up on everything about this BS virus that you know nothing about. The gig was always up and the sheepish are always going to be sheepies. I'm hear to WTF up to the sleeping Lions who have been napping on the job. Lukewarm Lions are stupid and lazy and not using their strengths for good. Not too late to get healthy and join the fight. Time to wake up girls and boys. Game on!!!
No.
With 95% effective vaccines, there is plenty of flexibility for individuals to refuse the vaccine. The country will get to herd immunity with or without putting a needle in crush.
Congrats on the weight loss. That isn’t easy to do.
O.K. this is a bit of a conspiracy theory, but it does kind of make you go hmmm.....a poster known as Ethical Skeptic has, based on the latest WHO news that there were several variants (15) already in circulation in January 2020 has been speculating that China has had a low level outbreak since the winter of 2018. He points to the fact that it is unlikely that multiple variants could quickly develop from an emerging virus, along with that in 2018 China seems to have had an economic event that led to lower cell phone subscribers, a drop in Co2 and economic prosperity, and some secondary events in key Chinese trading partners and what seem to be high levels of immunity in those partners. Why hasn't it been noticed before? Because it potentially mutated along the way into something more severe. Again, total conspiracy theory but one that does make you go "hmmm".

If those measures work for 80% of the folks that believe your fact-less nonsense the 20% should be wiped out in no time. Problem solved. If the 20% is not wiped out, guess who the reservoir is?
Instead the media message was that we should hide in our homes.Took roughly 13 months, but even CNN is now starting to understand that a healthy lifestyle can reduce the impact of this “deadly disease” (not my words or those of the extremes right media outlets....)

OK so I gave Fauci the benefit of for a long time, but he said this morning the pause on the J&J vaccine would give people more confidence in the vaccine when it resumes. Yeah, may be in the mind of those that live in a medical bubble, but couldn't be farther from the truth for the general public. He is clueless. Any Covid public policy duties he may still have should be removed. STAT.

Yes I know and it mad me go crazy inside my soul for the longest time because you seem like a fantastic dad and one who cares for his employees. I truly mean that Wat Fly. You have tremendous good in you
Now, we need to watch closely with our eyes and ears and make sure this never happens again. Dr F was up to no good and his fake Dr BG is a joke. Dude went out and bought up all the farm land as if we will allow him to cut our meat and pick our fruit and veggies. Hell no!!!Why is BG buying up all the farmland?
Why are you buying so much farmland?” posed by one Reddit user, Mr Gee ((I wonder what he's really up too)) indicated that seed science and biofuel development were major drivers of the acquisitions. “My investment group chose to do this ((Ya right, and I'm sure you have great reasons why you were flying around and doing big non profit with Jeff and his pals )).

This falls under the bad news thread.
Just like the post yesterday with the WSJ talking about Youtube taking down a video....here we have Twitter taking down someone who dared to criticize BLM and in specific one of the founders who has been running around spending millions on houses.
It is not good news when you have organizations controlling speech. FB, Twitter, Youtube are the biggest platforms in the world. If you get dinged there...you are effectively cut off.
Not a good trend.

This all started with the Normal family and the Know It All families. You know, those with the means to get what they want first before others. Now that they know they lost the game, Mr. Normal and his Sit Still and Look Pretty wife and Mr & Mrs Know It All need to make one last stand and go as low as humanly possible. True loserville!!! It's poor sportsmanship where I come from at bestThis falls under the bad news thread.

I admire you continuing to attempt to talk common sense in here. It’s a noble effort yet it is in vain. These fucks don’t care. Until it happens to them it ain’t a thing.

dad deals in fear. Cost / benefit? He is unaware of that as well. Advocates shutting biz and places down that scare him.
Advocates masks, won't get his vaccine and go back to work.
I think that is the gist of what he offers.
Not all in vain. Every so often, someone has a strong point and I learn something.
Just have to learn to filter out the Breitbart nonsense that is 90% of the posts.
Why Hüsker Dü? I haven't heard of them in years.
It did happen to me, thank you very much.
A little harsh but yeah. I mean he's shared his tournament hypocrisy, his not flying, his once a week take out, and he advocates for all of us sharing our vaccine status via vaccine passports, so if he's had it, I'm surprised he wouldn't just say "I've been vaccinated....it went great and it's a good idea for everyone....get yours today too", esp. considering many of us who have been skeptical have shared such info.
