Doc was right, aina?
Right about what?
So you watched this whole thing:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtQ-goeYY8sAnd what you got out of it was that 'I can't go on a party cruise on the 4th of July?'??? Vaccine timeline has been pulled way up, things are on track to "normal" sooner than expected, and the front-man is 100% being honest and up-front. For all that, I'd expect a 🙏🙏 from you.
So serious.
Everything kin, everything, hey?
With the hope of maybe (if we’re lucky) then being able to get together with family and close friends for a 4th of July bbq 🤦♂️Not the speech I was hoping to hear. Between the threat of imposing restrictions again and the general negativity around the message it just didn’t seem to meet the moment or optimistic forward look after such a sh*tty last twelve months.
Blind optimism are predictions that we will be able to get together over Easter. July 4 is realistic and can always be moved up if things go well. (I do think the "no large crowds" thing is going to be completely ignored.)
Memorial day I think we are looking at full open unless we run into shortages and/or problems.
If we're doing dick measuring about who was right and who was wrong regarding covid for the last twelve months, I think its safe to say your micropeen can be put back in your tighty whities. I'll get back to you when I'm done measuring mine, but menards was all out of tape measures last I checked. Anyone got one of these sitting around?Stick to teeth.
Deal kin, if you promise to stick to medical transportation, hey?
I guess it hurts to be constantly owned by someone who only holds a BS.
Always better to under-promise and over-deliver than vice versa.Better to say July 4 when Memorial Day likely than to say cases “will be close to zero within days” or “like a miracle it will disappear.”
Owned? You'd soon be outbid on Ebay, aina?
I mean the vast majority of the country was getting together for outdoor 4th celebrations last year for crying out loud.
Well thats a weird thing to get hung up on.If people got together last july 4th, they are probably getting together regardless of what date is thrown out.
And that turned out so well, ai'na?Bingo. The former occupant made one failed promise after another ("You have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero." (Feb 26, 2020); "Just stay calm. It will go away." (March 10, 2020); "One day, it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.” (Feb 28, 2020); back to normal before Easter; approved vaccines by last October; etc). It's refreshing to have someone give us goals we can actually achieve, while also delivering the realistic tone that we are all responsible for making it happen.
Yep. Especially since July 4th gatherings likely contributed to last year's summertime peak (~70k cases/day on July 24).
I think, like the 100 million doses in the first 100 days, it is an easy, alliterative shorthand for the goal. The 100 million doses are going to be given in the first 60 days. If production holds up, opening it up to all before May 1 is doable, but May 1 is a clear and easy target. And if that happens, almost everybody is going to be peeling their masks off on their own before that. But July 4 is an easily recognizable national celebration. Tying the vaccinations to a patriotic theme is just good marketing. Potential potholes are variants infecting teenagers, side effects, and production issues. Also, I have to assume they are already planning on booster shots for the fall.
Well thats a weird thing to get hung up on.If people got together last july 4th, they are probably getting together regardless of what date is thrown out. I think its realistic that by the end of June everyone who wants to be is fully vaccinated. For some that's important and putting a date on it, even if it proves to be conservative, and is how you communicate in crises.
I thought we’re forgiving the misguidance given early on by damn near everyone? Behind the scenes and publicly the experts were saying the same damn thing.
