Very interesting. I still believe that Covid was spread around much earlier than everyone first thought. Maybe that is part of it.

Got my Moderna booster today, easy in and out, took abut 10 minutes total.  They also said I didn't need to wait around for an additional 15 minutes afterward this time, but I could if I wanted to.

I expect this will be the last shot I get, unless/until they start developing variant-specific shots and manage to get ahead of the game with them.

valuable info
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

That’s not good for his or her health.

Or I got your blood flowing which I don’t know if that’s good or bad for your health

Inside the building?  Is that still legal up there?

I'll just say that the pharmacy team at the Walgreens I went to was not worth sticking around for.

Arm is already getting a little sore, that's about all I had with the first two so hoping for more of the same.

Too early to tell if it'll hold, but the US death numbers (7-day MA) might be hitting a plateau a little under the 2400/day mark. 

That would be very positive, as the UK data showed from Delta peak -> Omicron peak a roughly 50% increase, which here would suggest a number closer to 3000/day. 

I personally was predicting the 2600-2800 range as our Omicron peak, and if we stay under 2400 I'd say that's a good thing.

I gave up on looking at case numbers months ago. All I care about now is hospital use and deaths.





Now, it IS interesting to compare the above with the case rates.

I, for one, am pro where those projected lines go an would prefer strongly that they get there.

Yeah it's still a little early to tell but I think the case/death ratio this time around is going to end up in a better place than the previous waves.

Oh that's already assured... Which is good considering that our case peak was 3x any time previously in the pandemic. If the case/death ratio was similar to the 2020-21 holiday/winter wave, we'd be looking at 9-10K deaths/day. 

Peak deaths then were 3500. With triple the cases I was guessing 2600-2800 deaths/day, and that we might barely hit 3000 but wouldn't eclipse that previous peak of 3500. Although we're still 20% over the Delta peak, the fact that we aren't even as high as my guess is a very good thing.

You think?


It's a certainty. And, while extremely sad, many of those who were most vulnerable have already passed away.

Let's look at OLD Florida.

Death curves are still rising in many states, including Texas.

I think I'll go ahead and wait to get all the way into the endzone before spiking the ball.

So, like I said, it's looking positive.

So is it a 5 month wait?
