Tupelo band shut down after a few days in camp.
Not a Corona Bro but not a denier either.
Think it might be prudent to hold off of face to face classes til Tue after Labor Day like our forefathers.

It was inevitable given the low vaccine compliance and increased virulence of the delta strain.
Hey at least we got that natty in
The thing amazed me was the JPS shut down last fall and they have been social distancing at Football games for years. They spread their band and dancers out to make the bleachers look full. And their teams can?t tackle or block because they are never within 6 feet of an opposing player.
A guy in town here was basically bragging on how South Mississippi was unvaccinated.Quote:

That depends if they powers that be are going to look at case numbers or deaths. Vaccination (which I am) is not going to stop case counts.Quote:

But vaccination greatly lowers hospital count. The avg wait time for ambulances the past two weeks in the central ms trauma district at hospitals is 6 hours. That means the unit is out of service and sitting on a wall at a hospital waiting to drop a pt off.Quote:

Shoeless Joe brings up a very valid point relative to treating COVID. The death rates should be lower this time, but we are about to enter another very difficult period and it could have been avoided. It SHOULD have been avoided.
We've become so ****ing cynical; and who TF was he attempting to "own" with that BS?Quote:

I agree. My point is simply that, if we are going to shut down schools due strictly to positive cases in the school (which is what the oak grove released statement said-28 positive cases), then the vaccine is not going to stop that.Quote:

Can track the MS data here. Everything has gone vertical. Will be out of ICU beds shortly in MS if trends continue for another week or two.

I'm going to start showing up at people's jobs and telling them how fake they are and how they're doing it wrong. You know, I'm smarter than the scientists, so I must know it all if I'm from Mississippi (Alabama, Missouri...) /s
btw I'm a teacher so I'm exposed to all your little unvaccinated sweet children.
Not if you are vaccinated twice and double mask. There is no way any of our little unvaccinated sweet children can infect you. I saw it on TV so it must be true.Quote:

So does anyone know what happened to Alpha, Beta Variants? When should we expect the Gamma, Rho, and Theta Variants? Conveniently right before the 2022 Elections?
I am not saying this isn?t real, I am saying it was released and planned. Not a conspiracy. A biological war. There WILL be more variants. The thing was lab produced and now it is mutating just like those lab scientists knew it would.
This is the beginning of what will be many pandemics over the coming years. Now that the government has experienced how easy it is to control people, that appetite will grow more and more.Quote:

He also said that if he did have it again that he would be the first person in the county to contract it for the second time. So just to be safe we did the send off test and sure enough it came back negative. After a couple of days of antibiotics for the strep he’s back to his typical insane maniacal 3 yr old self.
What’s odd to me is that this same doctor that just said no one around here has gotten it a second time also recommended gettin the vaccine even tho me and my wife had already had covid. If I had’tt had it I would get the shot but as of now I would get tested for anti bodies before gettin the vax
Our Southern border is wide open and we had 150K come into the country in the month of July- and that’s just the ones we caught and counted. These people aren’t vaxxed and we aren’t vaxxing them upon entry. Just letting them go wherever they want in this country spreading whatever. Until this administration gets serious about C19- they shouldn’t expect anybody else to be serious.
Gamma variant is already around. May not be here, but it's out there.Quote:

This is fact. I have a lot of friends with ranches on the border. The stories I am hearing from them would astonish you. This issue alone shows that there is an agenda, especially since the Canadian and Florida border have different protocols.Quote:

It's a bummer, but Covid is racing through MS. And Lamar Co. is one of the higher vaccinated counties in MS at 39% of the county population. I have heard all the insane/crazy and not so crazy reasons not to vaccinate, but my family and I chose to take the vaccine and follow the science. MS is a chronically undervaccinated population and it could come back to haught.us. What if Covid spikes dramatically again and the decision is made to limit football attendance or cancel...
The vaccines are free because of Operation Warpspeed from the Trump Administration. Money was put toward millions of vaccines being free to Americans.Quote:

This is just not a debatable point. All Sleepy Joe did was continue what Trump started. Even though when he was in office and pushing for the vaccine to be developed every damn dem in office was screaming it won't be safe and they won't be taking the Trump vaccine.Quote:

The New York Post wrote, ?More than 100 illegal immigrants who tested positive for the coronavirus ? after their arrival in Texas since late January ? have been released by the Border Patrol into the Lone Star State and are free to travel to other parts of the U.S.?
______
Now consider an article published yesterday stating the current estimate is that just 68% of illegal border crossers get caught. See the referenced article linked below.
?Report: Just 68% of Illegal Border Crossers Get Caught.
Given the lack of deterrents to their entry, even that apprehension estimate may be high.?
https://cis.org/Arthur/Report-Just-6...ers-Get-Caught
The article is from The Center for Immigration Studies, an independent, non-partisan, non-profit, research organization widely recognized, for providing invaluable information, by such organizations as The Hudson Institute and the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights.
If you take the time to read the article, it is clear unvaccinated citizens are just a small part of the problem. My thoughts go to two things.
First:
Pandoras box has been opened. And, like when she slammed it shut, too late, could it be the only thing left still trapped inside is hope?
Second:
The pestilence spoken of in Revelation.
It honestly is hard to argue with this.Quote:

China did a great job engineering this virus.
