Getting groceries and you see a no appointment, no cost vaccination site while you've been dragging your feet, hell you might get it then. Get offered by your work to get a shot on a day they have people coming to come do it, sure why not. Walgreens at least has been emphasizing that the shots are free in commercials.

I wish we'd stop just using carrots and start using sticks. No assholes you want to go into the store? Get a vaccine. You want to keep your job? Get a vaccine. You want to keep your friends? Get a vaccine. Either they get a vaccine or society rejects them. Really all it'd take for most is forcing these assholes to wear real masks, or face fines/jail time, they don't have the stomach for any sort of inconvenience. Of course exceptions made to those who can't for medical reasons.

Sticks really can't be employed until the FDA fully approves the vaccines, then we'll start to see sticks taking effect I suspect.

Pharmacies in the US ask for insurance so they can get reimbursed for administering the shot. If anyone tells you they paid for the vaccine they are probably lying or mistaken.

When I got my shots they didn't even ask for an ID, I made the appointment online, and showed up at the appropriate time.

Huh I was under the impression that insurance was required as they asked for my insurance info. But in retrospect that doesn't make sense and walk up clinics are a thing. Point is that if people who have the option to haven't already taken steps to get the vaccine, there's no indication that they will in the future until something changes. I dont mean to be doomer but we are gonna learn the hard way

The government will pay them for vaccinating you, but at least some insurance companies pay better, so it behooves them to ask.

MarcusSA posted:They might be joking but they probably aren’t wrong. Meh. Despite how the Republican death cult is operating, it still strikes me as a reach that the Supreme Court would void a century or more of established case law to own the libs. During the measles outbreaks a couple years ago I read into the matter (disclaimer: I am not a lawyer) and the ability of individual states to mandate vaccination under the umbrella of public health is pretty robust. Not to mention that employers can mandate these things, too.

Well, yeah, I'm not sure the Feds could effectively mandate vaccine outside international travel or a few other specific areas - I'm pretty sure it falls to the state level, much like mask mandates and lockdown stuff.

Everywhere else is just fine!

Also they have to be fully vaccinated, if they're within 2 weeks of their final shot they still have to mask up & socially distance https://twitter.com/davidalim/status/1392911339153154050

I like masks 1. Makes me look like a ninja or some poo poo 2. Prevent spreading disease or contracting disease 3. Can be slightly more anonymous 4. Probably overall just cleaner and safer for food workers and poo poo 5. Don't ever have to look at strangers' ugly rear end teeth or smell their gross breath, in fact considering how fugly the average American is, probably good to not see most of the face in general I'll probably keep wearing one for a while longer edit: Also can't wait for the 5th wave to come roaring and consume the anti-vaxxers

also SURELY this means that people who are anti-vax are going to now be pro-maskers to show everyone how they're anti-vax, right? like a "i'm not vaccinated and you can't make me" badge of honor? right?!?!?!?

Also keep in mind that only 42.5% of adults in the US are fully vaxxed so if you're at an indoor venue or a very crowded outdoor venue you should expect to see almost 2/3 of the adults and nearly 100% of the children over 2 still wearing masks. https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#vaccinations

I don't expect that at all, and you can't convince me I should expect that in this reality.

Like all of this poo poo, though, it's going to fall on deaf ears and we're gonna get a lot of dumb, sick assholes soon. For the next 12 days, at least, I'm not gonna have to see them (not that they really showed up, uh, ever here where I live; we did take it seriously, apparently).
