NYC. SF. LA. Vaccine passports are rolling out. You claimed they would never come here. I'm not trying to "gotcha" you.
New Orleans, too, right?
I was referring to to enter/leave the country. I didn't see how that could be enforced. Still don't, unless some global coalition effort were to happen.
A "passport" to eat indoors wasn't even on my radar at that time.
I'm going to NYC in November, I'll have to figure it out if it's still in effect. The app they are pushing now (Excelsior) is for NY residents only. Clear is another option.
Vaxpass to leave/enter the country would suck, but whatever. A vaxpass to literally live in your local neighborhood has always been my fear, and what I mean when I talk about a vaccine passport. Traveling internationally is not the same thing as buying groceries.
A vaccine passport to literally just live your life is the end of the West. I say that without a hint of irony or sarcasm.
posted by AutomatikSomeone told me Clear would link up with other apps/services (concerts, sports events, etc) that may require vax passports for entries. So something to research and consider.The app they are pushing now (Excelsior) is for NY residents only. Clear is another option.

CDC is about to recommend booster shots after 8 months FOR EVERYONE.
I just don't see a campaign for a 3rd shot being remotely as successful as the first. So we'll see how Biden manages that. So far, aside from encouraging masks and shots, it doesn't seem like Biden has done anything different from Trump.
lol, Chuck Schumer rapping about the vaccine. This is the weirdest timeline.
I’m just here to remind y’all that everything can always get worse.

Nothing says "hilariously sad" like an old dude usually seen with his glasses on the very tip of his nose trying to be hip.

Will closing the border make vaccination rates of your type get to at least graduation rates of your type?

Do you ask your black friends a variation of this question as well?

Nah they don’t really seem to be too worried about closing the border.
posted by Gardens35Governor DeSantis has acknowledged this "surge". He believes that it's due to people spending more time indoors to beat the heat and humidity, and thinks it will abate (his word) in a couple of weeks.
Update:
It didn't Abate.
FLA #1 at 21, 600+ new cases per day.

Nice deflection.

That would be a big fat NO.

??? They don’t seem to care.
Also my black friends who aren’t interested in the vaccine are also the only ones still wearing masks and social distancing.
The opposite of Quaker and his super spreaders. They are not alike.

You sure they're wearing masks because of Covid? /sleeperd
Jokes aside, I'm guessing the masks aren't N95 so pretty much useless with Delta.

I don’t believe they are.
But is delta smaller particle than original covid? I know it’s more transmissible, but I wonder why masks wouldn’t work? Unless masks don’t work with original covid but it’s just not as transmissible ?

Why do they hate science? So are NY vaccine passports Jim Crow laws? I’m very confused.

I dunno. Do you think it’s bc they were used as experiments for science ? Or is that also something you don’t believe happened lol

No, it's science. The other masks didn't work nearly as well as N95, and Delta is estimated to be 4X as contagious. So non-N95 masks let too much thru, and because it's more contagious a higher viral load comes thru.
So your friends might as well not even bother with a mask if it isn't N95.
LMAO, vaccinated people are getting Delta, but your friend's mask made out of an old t-shirt is going to protect him?

So I still wear masks in group settings at work. Not n95. Just cloth ones. And I’ve now been in meetings where 3 people have tested positive for covid. And it’s all been in the last 2 weeks. So chances are pretty good is delta variant right? I’d imagine it’s mostly from being vaccinated that’s kept me from getting sick. Of course if you listen to antimaskers and antivaxxers it’s the vaccinated getting sick and spreading it. So who knows? Mask? Moderna ?
