No, you’re here because you have no place better to be and like telling soccer parents how smart you are.
Actually I tell them how dumb they are. I don’t need to talk about myself since I’m not insecure like Grace Karen.

Be fair guys, California is only 46th out of all states on percentage of vaccinations administered, so there is 4 states worse than Cali. It must be because of population density.

States ranked by percentage of COVID-19 vaccines administered: Nov. 30 - Becker's Hospital Review | Healthcare News & Analysis
Wisconsin has administered the highest percentage of COVID-19 vaccines it has received, according to the CDC's COVID-19 vaccine distribution and administration data tracker.www.beckershospitalreview.com
I read somewhere as of today we are 49th (only behind Alabama.....yeah!) Meanwhile Florida has vaccinated 1/4 of its seniors. By the beginning of March they expect to have more than 1/2 vaccinated (barring any snafus in vaccine manufacture). My guess is by mid March Florida's IFR will be on the floor, with California's still high struggling to vaccinate seniors 65+ and a long list of essential workers unless something seriously changes.
Agree, 100%. He is toast, and any future political aspirations are dead in the water, (rightfully so.)Newsom is toast. I'm on the left...like Bernie Left...and I think Newsom is done.
See @EOTL, here's the problem, draconian rules don't work. Our rates are up because people are just done with the rules. So given that, what would've been a better route he could've taken? Let me tell you. He could've looked at the MOUNTAINS of data from all the other states that didn't shutdown everything and looked at their contact tracing. Guess what he would've found? Let me tell you. Outdoor activities are super low risk. This includes youth soccer as well as outdoor group basket weaving. The left, which includes me, can't cherry pick science.
All you have to do is look at the leadership of each state. DeSantis vs. Newsom. I'd take DeSantis any day.I read somewhere as of today we are 49th (only behind Alabama.....yeah!)

Since this is already in the Off Topic forum....when you say he is toast do you mean he will be recalled? Won't be reelected Governor? Won't be a viable Presidential candidate (realistically he can't run until 2028)?Agree, 100%. He is toast, and any future political aspirations are dead in the water, (rightfully so.)
What's further annoying, is we are supposed to be going out of state 1x a month, (for soccer,) for 3 months in a row, starting in March! Completely unecessary.
Good question- and I don't really have any answer! If you would have asked me 6 months ago, (hell- maybe even 3,) if he was going to be recalled, I would have said "no way". Now- I'm not so sure!Since this is already in the Off Topic forum....when you say he is toast do you mean he will be recalled? Won't be reelected Governor? Won't be a viable Presidential candidate (realistically he can't run until 2028)?
While I wish he were toast, I just don't see it, but if the left is becoming disillusioned with him I could likely be wrong. He's an incredibly savvy politician, but being caught dining out was a huge political mistake. His greatest crime though is preventing kids from returning to school, despite the overwhelming evidence that it is safe with appropriate precautions.

GTFOH. I think your position is very odd. Do you really think Newsom’s political career is ruined because of outdoor soccer and outdoor group basket weaving? You’re talking loud but you aren’t saying anything.Newsom is toast. I'm on the left...like Bernie Left...and I think Newsom is done.

No, I think Newsom’s career is suffering because we are 49th out of 50 in vaccine logistics. People want this thing to be over, and leaving 3/4 of the vaccine in the freezers doesn’t sound good. We should be putting it into arms, not obsessing over complicated rules about whose arm.GTFOH. I think your position is very odd.

Agreed. My kid spends about 4 hours per day at the skatepark and has become a decent skater in past year. I initially thought some folks were embellishing about the mental health issues some kids are doing experiencing and then I recently received this:Perhaps I needed to be more clear. I put the basket weaving in there to capture that fact that this isn't just about youth soccer. We should have been emphasizing outdoor activities as being safe and indoor gatherings as higher risk. The left is all about science....yet in this case they're not using it.
See with EOTL logic that is a win. So long as he was wearing a mask and protecting his grandparents. Kids don't need to be outside and doing the things they love they will be fine.Agreed.

I’m not convinced the problem is limited to CA. I have tried to getAnd now Newsom is making the vaccine available to the homeless and incarcerated before most of the CA population can get it, including those with high blood pressure and diabetes. This state is so f’ed up.
I haven’t had any luck getting the vaccine through the VA hospital either. I think John Muir hospital will be prepared to vaccinate me before the VA hospital.And now Newsom is making the vaccine available to the homeless and incarcerated before most of the CA population can get it, including those with high blood pressure and diabetes.

On the other hand, my aunt and mother in law in FL are bragging that they went through a “drive through” vaccination and didn’t even have to get out of their cars.
Nah. EOTL has been clear that mental illness is just like heartburn. It wouldn’t be a win, just a pesky bother.See with EOTL logic that is a win. So long as he was wearing a mask and protecting his grandparents. Kids don't need to be outside and doing the things they love they will be fine.
Or in the case of the homeless and incarcerated, focusing on the lack of jobs!By focusing on people's jobs like california is it slows everything down because you've got to get organized by work place and get the word out to those people
Indiana residents call 211 and enter their zip code on their phone. They are then connected to a live person in their county and that person asks them a few questions and then gives them an appt time/date. My 82 yr old parents spent <5 mins on the phone, and <10 mins having the shot administered. They were extremely pleased with the process for shot #1. I hope #2 is just as simple.I’m not convinced the problem is limited to CA. I have tried to get

According to my mother in law, the hardest part about getting the second shot administered was finding a place to laminate her immunization card afterwards.Indiana residents call 211 and enter their zip code on their phone.
