Many large ortho groups can probably take care of that. It is wise to avoid the ER right now unless you are super sick. The mom should try an ortho in a large city and get that taken care of.

He leaned into the shutdowns, massive handouts, and the big unemployment payments. He never was really a limited government guy - much more of a populist - and he was happy to open up the checkbook for the giveaways which were necessary to support the lockdowns. He finally realized the error of his ways, but the horse was way out of the barn by then.

If he gave a tinker's dam about the party or the country, he would've done everything in his power to help keep the Georgia senate races from going Democrat, but he was too wrapped up in his own *****

We are incredibly fortunate that Biden has done such a terrible job that he has no leverage on Manchin or Sinema (really the opposite - they can't very well follow him).

---

Trump took a giant dump on Georgia without any regard for consequence. His first mistake on the GA Senate race was going for Kelly Loeffler over Doug Collins. And no way David Perdue should have lost his race. Now Trump's collateral damage with Kemp could put the governor's race in play for Stacy Abrams as he and Perdue, instead of being the Senator, are tearing at each other. Shoe in Lieutenant Governor Duncan has declined to run because of the insanity from 2020, so even that's up for grabs now.

Remember that starting Saturday you will need these three things before heading out:

2. Proof of Vaccination and Photo ID (18 years +)
3. Mask

MSNBC medical contributor Dr. Lipi Roy treads just shy of saying unvaccinated people should be denied medical care, arguing they could be put on a separate "triage list" that would result in them only getting "a certain type of care" though she's "not giving up on" them yet. pic.twitter.com/f2sX7hlX1S

I make arguments appropriate to the tone in the room. Take a look at responses from Sam, from quash, and their peers when I bring up the facts, and see their contempt for anyone who disagrees.

The plain fact is that I am wasting my time with some of these people, they will never stop and consider the facts, never consider that this issue is not about Trump or an election but illustrates the dismal erosion of the federal government's duty to some level of transparency.

I'm not some anti-vaccine nut, but the mandates and lockdowns and bully-gang tactics to smear anyone bringing up the value of treatments and open forum discussion of the virus' evolution are revolting.

I disagree with Canon and Amal, too, when they devolve to name-calling, but at least they tend to do so only in response to some childish tantrum from the statists.

We are learning more and more that while serious, COVID was never the catastrophic threat the media played it out to be. It's somewhere between SARS and The Spanish Flu of 1918 in scale, but the fear-mongering is both useless and sure to provoke a savage backlash.

What happens when a genuine threat exists, but the CDC has no credibility because they went stupid over COVID?

BREAKING: Greece announces that it will begin fining the unvaccinated $113 a month, Austria announces that it will begin fining them up to $4,000 a month, and Quebec announces that it may begin slapping them with a “significant” fine. RT IF YOU THINK THAT AMERICA MUST DO IT TOO!

If you tape a plastic bag around your head, you will not get covid for the rest of your life*

"The AP has recently told its editors and reporters to avoid emphasizing case counts in stories about the disease. That means, for example, no more stories focused solely on a particular country or state setting a one-day record for number of cases"https://t.co/cFCc59K8Gi

Colds are caused by coronaviruses and rhinoviruses Makes sense.

Narrative is changing. Virus no longer as scary as it used to be. Must be a political need to leave folks alone.

I said all this early summer '20. Can't steal life and development from children, people need to be productive to be healthy, just protect the vulnerable, consider the mental/healthcare/economic costs of shutting down, consider "from" vs "with" when looking at these stats, this will become endemic, never go away, vaccines haven't driven away the flu, etc... We just have to learn to live with it.

Buddies, including some left wingers, told me: "people will eventually get there - it will just take a while - they're scared."

I thought it would take a few months. I didn't think it would take TWO DAMN YEARS...

Our institutions and media have caused incalculable damage. We are in a sorry, sorry state.

Bottom line is a lot of people benefitted greatly in the short term from this pandemic. Tech companies, pharma companies, large cap companies generally, govt institutions and actors found themselves suddenly exceedingly important and got to flex, media (loves the fear porn), etc. Upper class and upper middle class living on investments or the laptop economy did just fine. And we were all willing to let young people, working class, small businesses, kids in bad or struggling families, etc. take all the hits. Entire series of events has been beyond shameful. Now, finally, enough people are sick of the hassle and theater that common sense has to prevail...

This is a virus with an extremely high survival rate and reasonable predictability regarding who is really at risk (and it is not young people). Imagine if some really bad **** hit the fan. Imagine what we, the American people, would be willing to immediately sacrifice on the altar of the nanny state for the illusion of safety.

Do you understand why Trump didn't believe you in Summer, 2020?

Trump is a populist and a poll watcher. Despite all his bluster, he's got no real core belief.

Correct
