Coronavirus (Covid-19) Discussion

Thank you @Megatron1505 It's been hard on us twins. We miss pop a lot.

[mention]twin [/mention] Richard, in the short time we met in Philadelphia you were so warm and kind to everyone. Your father (and I’m sure your mother) must have made that a priority for you and your brother. I know he will rest well knowing that you and your twin are continuing to be great people. May you be happy, healthy, and strong!
This is so kind of you @Fadez . We have always been good to people. I think it is from being a twin.

And it comes as no surprise that the local fuckwits in my area have gleaned us this unwanted accolade ::)

I was just having some pizza and I was thinking, "wow, this is the blandest pizza ever" then it occurred to me that I probably have the rona again for the 3rd time now.

Man, I sure hope not. Never heard of the Covid hat trick before.

I think I am alright.

Man, that paperwork that they make you sign is terrifying!
Probably the same thing your parents signed when you were a kid, and the same as I signed for my kids. CYA!
Congrats on the vaccine, though. May it shield you, and those around you, well.

Ain't that the truth!
I told my brother the same thing and he said "Clearly you haven't read Apple's terms and conditions recently." LOL
And thanks for the congrats! My wife is nervous about this particular vaccine but the kids are going back to school soon and I need to go back to working in the office soon. It's this or the risk of Covid.

We're having an outbreak in Melbourne at the moment. It's still small, five cases overnight, but the state of Victoria has been locked down.
However, it's also meant that the age at which people can get a Covid vaccine has dropped from fifty to forty, so I now qualify. Furthermore, due to the risks of blood clots, anyone under fifty is being offered the more effective Pfizer vaccine.
So, yesterday I drove about 60 km / 40 miles to the local vaccination hub, and got my first shot of the Pfizer vaccine. I have to go back again in three weeks for the second. I felt a bit ill yesterday, but I'm okay today. I hear it's the next one that has the side effects.
Australia has messed up its vaccination programme, and I wasn't expecting to be eligible for another five or six months, so when the option came up I took it. Especially when I read an article by an epidemiologist who reckoned that the country has been lucky to avoid a major outbreak so far, but the chances are it will happen.

So has Canada! My first shot (Pfizer) was yesterday and my wife’s was on Wednesday and we are extremely grateful knowing that not everyone has had the same opportunity. Our second shots are scheduled for September and that’s not even guaranteed, or the possibility that your second dose will be the same vaccine as the first.
I know not to venture into politics on the forum, but I will say that our Country and Province could be better run by a group of 5 year olds. I could rant for hours on how many things have been continuously screwed up.
