I've been fully vaccinated since mid-March but almost none of my behavior has changed. I still wear KN95s in any indoor public setting. The only things that have actually changed for me are 1) I don't wear a mask in the hallways of my small condo, where everyone is vaccinated 2) I visit my neighbors in their homes, and vice versa, without a mask (again they are all vaccinated). Same with my parents who are in a senior condo, but I wear a mask in the common areas of that building. 3) I've had patio beers with goons a few times, but even then when I go inside to order I wear my mask. no gatherings of more than a few people, no travel, no "events," nothing.

this gap is only going to widen as more of the old white folks are vaccinated vs. none of the others and people of color continue to die in coming surges. there really is no way to close the gap without just euthanizing the white folks. it's just going to become an internalized part of america's horrible culture, that yeah of course white people live 10 more years than anyone else--always been that way, always will be that way

My wife and I are expecting and we've managed to coordinate her FMLA leave and our PTO plus some help from grandparents such that we won't have the kid in daycare until January and since it doesn't look like there is any chance of a vaccine being available for infants before then I just kinda gotta hope that COVID either goes away or that the fall surge is enough that by winter there are protections in place again because what we are about to do to kids in a couple weeks where we march them back to school en masse without vaccines is terrifying.

I mean you could say this about literally everyone, but this is an incredibly small building (15 units on three floors), so it's quite rare to even see another person on the way out. Given how transmissible delta is, I'm not sure how you would completely avoid it, even with a mask on. Can you get delta through surface transmission, like a door handle?

Gunshow Poophole posted:lol maybe not being "prevented" in the sense that there may well be a needle waiting for them at a site in somewhat close proximity There seems to be a lot of poor/minority/poor minority people who do manage to get vaccinated so it doesn't seem to be the sole reason. Is there a study how long it takes to get a vaccination? It can't be as time intensive as you're making it out to be. I heard they're being offered in grocery stores. Maybe there are vaccination deserts, I am not an American. But at first glance, if you can type in your zip code or just call a phone number it doesn't seem insurmountable for anyone who is literate, not disabled or mentally ill and has access to internet of some sort. And just for fun I checked vaccine locations for the top ten poorest zip codes in U.S. and the longest distance in them was 4 miles which you know, sucks for Bon Secour, Alabama and it's thousand people I guess but the next longest was 430 meters which you can just walk in a pretty short time. I just feel like someone would have made an article about people wanting vaccinations not getting one who don't live in a developing countries. I get that America is a shithole in many ways but it seems to be easier to get this vaccine there then it is here. I'm honestly sort of impressed at being able to pick any random rural zip code and finding multiple locations within a five mile radius. I live in the largest city in this country and we have like five spots in all. mod sassinator posted:hahahaha please source your quote The mass vaccine sites don't seem to be gone (read above) and nothing in your article suggests that? Being worried that you can't take time off work if you get side effects is understandable but uh, that is way less likely then getting covid and ah, you probably need to take time off work if that goes bad too so Especially when due to all that racism, communities of color have much higher chance of getting worse covid outcomes or worse treatment of covid. The "vaccine indifferent" or the "vaccine ambivalent" examples in there are just dumbasses of a different vein. If at this point you still believe the vaccine is an insidious government plot against minorities (which your article did not show either, anecdotally or statistically, I feel like it is way less of a reason then people make it out to be) when white rich people are like the most vaccinated group, you're just a moron, sorry. They ask for insurance cards? Even undocumented people are getting vaccines in the U.S. I find that pretty unlikely too. Not raised in your article either.

They do ask for insurance cards, but they'll bill the government if you don't have one. I'm recalling a tweet a few months ago where a journalist was like "Duh people. It's free how much easier could we make it you stupid proles?" and her replies being filled with people with receipts after being charged for the vaccine.

personally I'm in a sunk cost situation where I've forgone my salary and benefits for 16 months so that I can watch my kids at home and feed them without sending them to a daycare or school so it feels like to just give up in September when poo poo is as bad or worse than it's ever been... it just feels like giving up. gently caress.

mod sassinator posted:are you loving high? Mass vaccination site is not the same thing as a vaccination site, which there seems to be an incredible amount no matter which zip code you put in. Why do people specifically need to be vaccinated in "mass vaccination sites", especially if they have issues getting there? I'd personally go for the convience of a walking distance. What paperwork, what barriers, what historical issues? Is the government site lying to me and none of the places actually offer any vaccines, they all ask money, or ID, don't exist, or are part of an insidious plot to experiment on minority populations? If I would somehow be teleported into a random location within U.S. with zero dollars in my pocket and access to no other knowledge then the zip code of where I am at the moment and no other website besides vaccines.gov, it would seem to me that I could get a vaccine pretty easily. To all information available to me. You have posted nothing else then people making either dumb risk calculations or just dumb points in general. (And no, I am not white before you go there)
