RE: **Covid-19 Discussion Thread** - unmoderated - ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Just curious what you guys get out of this silly 5th grade back and forth?
I would imagine all of us have our opinions/science/echo chamber on this issue, and y'all aren't changing anybody's minds. But you just can't leave it alone, will you?
Let it go, guys. We're all getting embarrassed for you.

Idiots who think children should be forced to wear masks and agree with covid sanctions should always be called out for the idiots they are.

What's the old saying? Don't wrestle a pig. You'll get all muddy and the pig enjoys it.
You're right, bftb.

Some positive news: we've had about 10 straight days of declining Covid related hospitalizations in Alabama per the ADPH dashboard.

I just feel bad for people like them and get baited into commenting back and forth. I shouldn't, but I do. I am embarrassed that people like that are associated with UAB.

14 straight days of declining covid related hospitalizations in Alabama. Seems to be receding as fast as it struck, at least for now.

Good news. Didn’t come close to projections. Now if we could get the celebrating when an unvaxxed dies, to stop.
Since I’m here. I get the 2nd moderna Jab next Monday.

I’ve never celebrated the death of an unvaxxed individual. I feel sorry for their friends and families that there was likely a way to prevent death, and it wasn’t taken advantage of.
I saw this thing turning into a political argument way back when Trump was in office, and new back then that it was going to be a horrible thing for our future.

At some point Gov. Ivey is going to be forced to do something. Saw a stat yesterday that Alabama had the most hospitalized kids with Covid. There are certain things that politicians are not going to risk, and that's likely one of them.
There's a lot of time before we play at home, though, so they'll kick the can a while yet.
I miss some band dad and the answer fear porn. Idiots

RIP Colin Powell. I didn't always agree with his worldview but I appreciate very much his service to our country. One of the more high profile casualties of the pandemic.

Purposely tried to steer clear of the fray. He served in our military for a long time and seemed to be a decent guy. I meant it when I said I deeply appreciate his service as well as that of all current and former service members. My Dad and pretty much all my uncles were vets too. Not sure we'll ever see another generation like them. May they all RIP.

No posts in a month - cases lower. Makes sense, but what happened to the need to shut down going to football games? Maybe we have reached herd immunity with cases plus vaccines?

I wonder if banddad will ever say how great Desantis is doing. Greatest numbers in the country, but this was all political for him and answer. Not a lot of fear porn for those idiots to post about these days

Back in the 80s, I was on lunchroom monitoring duty at WEHS with fellow history teacher Taylor Green. He casually mentioned that his brother in law had gotten a promotion. I was thinking a local bank or insurance company so I asked about it, He smiled and told me that President Reagan had just named him as Chairman of the National Security Council. That is how I found out that he and Colin Powell had married sisters (Alma and Barbra) from B'ham.
Barbra Green later became an administrator for Lawson State and invited Colin Powel to a ceremony there where he spoke as the main speaker. Their son, Taylor Green, Jr (Powell's nephew) is in administration in the B'ham School System (the last I heard)
