And nice beaches. But God help you in a hurricane's storm surge or the high wind.

Or a Covid surge.

Or a Covid surge.

Both are sure bets.

Born and raised in Portland Metro baby. I can complain all I want about these a-holes moving here.

I was born in Emanuel Hospital and spent most of my life living in Portland metro. I do love living in Tennessee, though.

wasnt that filmed closer to your neck of the woods? Lol.

my parents were total hippies. Tried living off the land and did fine until they had me. Then reality kicked in that they birthed a trouble child and had to move back to the city so they had help. Lol.

I’ve been absolutely skewered on here for making the same comment.

White House to ship free at-home Covid tests via USPS, finalizes first contracts

About time...

About time...

Coming to a landfill near you.

 

[Phatguysrule]

Coming to a landfill near you.

Why would you request it if you were just going to throw it away?
And nearly everthing in these packages is completely recyclable. It's mostly cardboard and plastic wrapping. The rest is like a Q-tip

Well, dang.....

NFL Rumors: Aaron Rodgers threatens to boycott Super Bowl LVI

Aaron Rodgers is on his way to a fourth NFL MVP award for his play this season. The Green Bay Packers are 13-3, own the top spot in the NFC, and are Super Bowl favorites, thanks to his play.

Yet the main storyline following Rodgers all season has been his comments about COVID-19 vaccines. He is, himself, unvaccinated and has made numerous comments about how he thinks the NFL's policies on testing are unnecessary.

So far, Rodgers has not made any drastic stand. But could that change?

Former NFL quarterback and current analyst Boomer Esiason received an interesting text and shared it on his radio show. It all had to do with what would happen if Rodgers made the Super Bowl..........(CONTINUED)

Nearly everything on the planet is recyclable, landfills still exist and are full of recyclable items.
These 500 million tests have to be made and stored, and when they aren’t used they will be sent to the landfill. But hey, the lab who made them (and their stock holders) will make a shit ton of money! Wonder who the investors are?

Yeah, I'm not at all interested in preventing people from getting access to tests during a pandemic just to stop some corporations from making money. That's asinine.

500 million Q-tips is not going to be noticed in our landfills. They wouldn't be noticed in any 1 landfill.

If you want to change America to prevent corporate profit taking feel free to do it without preventing access to healthcare.

Testing doesn’t prevent or treat covid. Focus on sick people and quit trying to incite hysteria by counting “cases”. A Billion asymptomatic cases is just a bunch of people walking around.

 

[riverman]

so after all that you're counting cases too?...testing is how you stop the spread...not cure it...back tracing is where we dropped the ball in 2020 and where New Zealand had the best success rate at containing it....false propaganda to say testing doesn't help protect the uninfected....it sure as hell does.

I can see it’s working really well right now.

 

[jonnyboy]

A bunch of people going to get tested after they’ve already spread the virus, then waiting for results, THEN quarantining. Real effective. Counting cases is as effective as counting sheep at this point. Put those resources toward the hospitals that are supposedly overflowing.

 

[riverman]

I can see it’s working really well right now.

Taiwan yesterday....4 cases...100% mask compliance..7 day quarantines upon entering the country..read it and weep....also backtracing and quarantine for anyone in contact..pretty good for a country not far from Wuhan.safety protocol .worked in Taiwan New Zealand and Denmark....first wave of covid Taiwan's totally masked population with closed airports had 7 cases......today they have 4 out of 23 million population.....scientific methods are demonstrable but hey....go cure syphillis in a sweat lodge if you like and continue to have unprotected sex......you don't trust big pharma right?

Brilliant. They probably fired all the unvaccinated staff, then were forced to bring people to work who literally had covid…because there was a staffing shortage. They must be following the science.

No, actually they were very explicitly not following the science when they brought in the positive cases.
