No one in the world does that, thank God. Every restaurant I've been to (and I've been to many over the last year) is business as usual besides entry, exit, and going to the restroom.

Houston Health Department, Sly & Lina all starting to pump up the CDC double masking push

F that.

Kind of serious question: why not three or four? What number do we reach that additional masks become less effective?

I'd really like to meet the person who typed out an exception for those who are unconscious or otherwise incapacitated. Doesn't specifically mention the dead, so I guess they are not exempted.

I take chopsticks to restaurants now. If you are skilled enough, you can use the chopsticks to insert the food in between your mask and your face, that way you never have to even take the mask off. It takes some practice though. The key is to make sure they are small enough "bites" or you will compromise the integrity of the mask seal at the food insertion point. Also, don't use cheap wooden chopsticks you get free at Chinese (source of virus btw) restaurants. They can chaff the mask which could reduce viral protection if there is fine-weave disruption. Use slick resin ones. They slide in and out with ease. For drinking, get the cheap bendy straws and keep the short end in your mouth. The flex elbow on it makes drinking with a mask on easy peasy. If you are right-handed, have it inserted on the left, that way you can do the chopstick insertion method on the right side with no problems.

More and more are starting to become business as usual, even during entry, exit and going to the bathroom.

It's nice to see.

We have no choice but to destroy the Waugh St. bridge and the Corvid carrying bats living therein.

Have had a tough time finding an appointment for my dad so we've been keeping an eye on things.

Walmart Pharmacies in Houston area just opened up appointments for Covid Vaccines.

If you're 1a/1b eligible, schedule online while you can. Not sure how long they'll last but there were quite a few when I was logged on a few minutes ago.

Thanks, I just grabbed one for my father in law.

this double masking guidance is just retcon CYA since they've got to come up with some reason why CA had such a bad outcome with maximalist policy

PPE works but not the PPE they've been claiming as effective and necessary

also, the anal swab **** is pure trolling out of CCP

steady drumbeat of western demoralization

They're all gone now in all of Houston. Stopped looking when I got past College Station.

yeah, figured they wouldn't last long. They apparently loaded the openings around midnight last night.

I'll let you know if I hear about any more coming up. My wife has become a vaccine ninja of late.

agreed. My dad has every co-morbidity in the book and we've had a tough time finding it, so I'm a little skeptical when I read about how easy it is to get a vaccine in Houston.

I'm definitely seeing a lot more vaccines open up as pharmacies get it, but demand is still much higher than supply.

It is easy to get if you volunteer for 4 hours and post your pics on instagram.

You gotta keep an eye out for the Memorial Hermann mega weekends they do.

Both my parents have gotten their first round through those days.

yeah, my mom is part of that network so she got her shot a month ago. No such luck for pops.

My parents aren't part of any MH network.

I ended up seeing the first round being advertised at NRG on Facebook and my dad was able to get a slot.

Whenever they announced they'd be doing shots last week in Sugar Land, my dad was able to get my mom signed up pretty easily.

I suggest following MH on facebook and other social so when they announce it you can quickly get him signed up.

That's what has seemed to work for them

thanks. He's already signed up for the Walmart, but good to know.

Do they have a Methodist physician or doc? They are also doing vaccine events.

It's going to be hard for the government to keep the panic going past that point, though I have no doubt that certain politicians and "scientists" will make every effort to do so.

I saw a headline this morning, I think on cnbc.com, that said Biden believes masks will be required through NEXT YEAR. Yes, through 2022.

They're already laying the groundwork.

he's just Biden his time to make us a mask society permanently!

All gyms, to include the base gym here in CA are still shutdown. Some of the high end gyms, like the redondo beach bay club have moved some stuff outside but all of the affordable gyms are still closed. Don't know how any of them will survive as they've been closed for damn near a year now except for last summer when **** actually got back to normal here for ~ a month.

wrong thread

My dad got shot number 2 today at NRG. Said it took about 30 minutes to weave through the lines but he's now fully immortal (and maybe a zombie).

Has his 5G come in yet?

Wife just told me that Methodist lost a freezer and have a bunch of vaccines thawing out. Anyone over 18 can come get one

Where at?
