No and afaik you can rent a hotel convention center for like $2000 for the weekend

I'm honestly starting to feel like I need some more needles in me. I already got my 4th booster shot last week but that's not enough for me.

I think I'll go and grab some MMR tomorrow or on the weekend.

Have any Goons gotten fourth shots without being immunocompromised? Like I'm just wondering if it's worth it. I got my third dose (dose, not booster) of Moderna back in late August and my current understanding was that there was no real point to trying for a booster or a fourth full dose until at least four months after that - so late December or early January was my current plan.

I'm kind of in the same boat. Got a full third shot of Moderna in August and I'm wondering if I should try and get the Moderna booster in December.

All joking aside, along with the elastomeric elite information, it might not hurt to put in the OP the current known stuff and goon doctor recommendations WRT booster banditry and when to do it. The sad reality is that our government health agencies and for many of us even our primary doctors have failed us completely and now for many of us - or at least for me - this thread is sadly one of the best sources for information.

Yes. And many more reports of COVID causing ED since, you know, blood flow issues. Also given that many Long COVID sufferers have described being unable to perform simple tasks like dressing themselves or getting out of bed without getting winded, I cannot imagine that many penis-havers with Long COVID will have the physical stamina, even if their dicks still work, to gently caress.
Plus I imagine that for those with reasonably functioning bodies but mental impairments, that yeah, finding dates when you have brain damage is probably not the easiest thing.

I strongly suspect that even in nations where the death toll from COVID doesn't much make a dent in the overall population numbers, that the effects of Long COVID will probably cause substantial declines in population growth.

You know how Moderna can give you really bad night sweats? Some of the women in my office took that to mean it was giving you hot flashes and thus messing with your hormones. Therefore it might mess with your fertility. Therefore nobody under 40 should get vaccinated.

Edit: This also added to those concerns that the vaccine was up to something related to fertility: Covid vaccine: Period changes could be a short-term side effect

there will NEVER be another lockdown in america like we had for two weeks to stop the spread.. not for at least two more generations of people. if there mere hint of a lockdown comes up it will be immediately shot down by blue and red MAGA folks of all stripes with every single piece of misinformation and propaganda we've seen. over time history books will slowly be updated and written to write out any effectiveness or good aspects of lockdown or pursuing covid zero

lmfao the whitehouse is so loving useless. they are already hinting the vaccine mandate for federal workers/contractors has some "flexibility"

https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/10/28/covid-delta-variant-live-updates/

quote:

On the other side of the Atlantic, the White House’s coronavirus response coordinator indicated that the Biden administration could be flexible as it enforces the president’s executive order requiring federal workers and employees of government contractors to be vaccinated.

“To be clear, we’re creating flexibility within the system. We’re offering people multiple opportunities to get vaccinated. There is not a cliff here,” Jeff Zients said.

It depends very much on who is president at the time, I think. If it's a Republican things may be better since you might have, as with last year, blue states enacting at least semi-impactful (although far too weak) NPIs to spite the president, as they did with Trump. But if it's during a theoretical future Democrat president* then you'll have the what we're seeing now, only probably even louder shrieking from the Republicans.

Liberals believe that Covid is Over, while Republicans believe it was never real in the first place.

*I do not believe there will ever again be such a thing.

It’s really interesting that he’s publicly calling them out. I don’t quite get the motive. I assume he’s generally a high-level grifter and not altruistic or utilitarian about keeping people home for non-Covid illness. That wouldn’t be good for number!
