the watcher reacted to Mark H. in Covid-19
I have been noticing this for quite some time. It is not exclusive to the poorly educated or the religious, it exists in most groups of people, and in all walks of life.

You cannot challenge an emotional decision with logic. Its like using architecture to explain dance.

^^ And until that happens, I guess they'll keep dithering about group sizes.

the watcher got a reaction from WildPath in Covid-19
122,000 positive tests in the UK yesterday
22,000 in Germany
Pretending any country can isolate let alone a city is ridiculous. You can't keep all " travelers " out because those travelers among other things bring you food, clothing, medicine......all the essentials of life.
One of the reasons this pandemic will be around for years is because we humans have made imaginary borders that the virus ignores. There are impoverished countries that have %5 vaccination rates. When Omicron is done with us there will be another variant coming along. There are things that would help.
1- countries need to send about to expire vaccines to countries in need. It's millions of doses being thrown out.
2- The patents need to be removed from Covid vaccines.
3- A war needs to be declared against Covid. Put the multi country joint effort into killing Covid that we put into killing people. Quit viewing this as Canada, USA, UK, or whatever country you live in fighting against Covid.
I'm sure there are other efforts that would help but those 3 are my suggestion.

The James Webb telescope is in space and beginning it's journey, solo, to deep space. A couple of weeks of maneuvers still ahead.
I can't wait to start seeing some images from this telescope. Hubble has brought us so much insight and the Webb will bring us so, so much more.

This is going to be absolutely epic. I can't wait to see the images it'll produce.

My wife and I are both triple vaxed. We will be seeing our kids and grandkids. All of them who are eligible are double or triple vaxed.
I look at it this way : Covid is going nowhere. It will be here for years in my opinion. I will take whatever precautions I can but draw the line at family and close friends. I am willing to take the risk to be with my family and a few select friends. My wife works in healthcare, several of my kids are teachers. If we/ they are willing to be exposed for our jobs and money, I am willing to be exposed to socialize with them. It's just as essential in my opinion.

I did. The last thing this province needs right now is someone taking a flame thrower to the government. The last thing this province needs is Glover in command.

She's spent most of her entire life in the public eye, TV and music. Her parents, both of them, grifted off her.

Omicron appears to spread at 4x the rate of the Delta variant. And right before Christmas. Yikes !

Agreed, but I have faith that guys want to come back (proven) and attracting FAs will be easy.

Eli is a Canadian citizen, he can't be denied entry, regardless of vax status.
The bigger issue for him and the club would be road games... Why bring back a guy who can only play half the games?

This is not exactly politics but as I read / watched I just kept thinking of Trump in command.

We need no further proof of the Trumpster GOP's insanity and treason. Bring out the gibbets.
