Let's think about that for a second.
I got you to admit that you'd have sex with a man. (I can prove it.)
I got you to admit that you support a law that makes polygamy legal. (I can prove it.)
Before it's over, there's no telling what I'll pull out of you.

The vaccine rollout isn't old. It's the most important thing happening in the world today. You just don't want to talk about because Trudeau failed your country and you have your tongue so far up his ass that you can't bring yourself to admit it.Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
Good News
More than one-third of U.S. adults — about 90 million people — have received at least one shot of a coronavirus vaccine.
Nearly every state has announced that it will meet President Joe Biden’s directive to make all adults eligible by May 1. Only two states — Arkansas and New York — have not laid out their timeline for universal eligibility. Check your state here. Wyoming has also not said when all adults will be able to get the shot, but 20 of the state’s 23 counties now allow them to.
The exact threshold for herd immunity for the coronavirus is unknown, but recent estimates range from 70 percent to 90 percent. If the U.S. can continue at the current rate of vaccination, about 2.68 million doses per day on average, that point could be reached by mid-July.
Case numbers remain high — an average of 60,545 cases per day over the past week — so coronavirus testing remainsessential.Good NewsComment

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
FOX Business and Fox News senior guest booker, Eric Spinato, 52 passed away suddenly last weekend due to complications from COVID-19 according to his family.
... the deadly pandemic is far from over when it can suddenly take the life of a healthy active 52 year old and the danger remains for all who have second thoughts about getting vaccinated.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
More cases of concerning P.1 variant confirmed in Vancouver lab than entire U.S.
A lab at a downtown Vancouver hospital has uncovered more cases of a highly contagious COVID-19 than has been recorded in all of the United States and CTV News has learned they've detected a spike in recent days.
A team of researchers at St. Paul's Hospital first detected an entire cluster of cases of the P.1 variant – most commonly associated with Brazil – that were previously unknown earlier this month. In subsequent days, they’ve found even more. As of Friday at noon, they revealed they've discovered a total of 215 of the P.1 variant through their screening, a number not yet reported by provincial officials.
The B.C. Centre for Disease Control's website says “the variant first reported in Japan but later identified in Brazil, which may be able to re-infect people who have had COVID-19, and may hide from the body's immune system” and there have been concerns that current vaccines may not be as effective in preventing infection.
There's a growing consensus among virologists and epidemiologists that it may be the most dangerous of all the variants: the spike proteins are "stickier," making them more likely to infect people and their positive charge repels antibodies, making it harder for the body to prevent infection.
The death toll in Brazil is soaring, where thousands of people are dying daily and ICU capacity in several states is overwhelmed, despite having a younger population than Canada.
While the country’s president is blamed for badly mishandling the pandemic, epidemiologists say the P.1 variant is spreading with ferocious speed, re-infecting those who’d recuperated and being far more contagious than traditional COVID-19.
Epidemiologists have emphasized that it's natural for RNA viruses to have variations or mutations and the emergence of variants that perpetuate the coronavirus haven't come as a surprise.
In Canada "close to 100 per cent" of positive COVID samples are screened for variants. In contrast, the United States is sequencing a tiny fraction, raising concerns they have little true idea how prevalent variants are there.
“We’re about to have to deal with the third wave — it’s already arrived in Ontario, it’s inevitable, in my opinion, in British Columbia,” he said. “We’re just at the cusp of seeing an influx of variants. So it’s a critical point in the pandemic and now is not the time to be complacent.”Comment
