Offered with a wry smile, remembering the days on IRC where ops used to auto kick/ban people with @aol.com addresses, esp. the ops in Linux channels

You need two doses of a live vaccine like MMR after age 15 months. If you were born before 1957 you are assumed to have had measles disease. Between 1962 and 1967 there was an inactive measles vaccine that doesn’t count.

Parents of an unvaccinated child with measles sent that child to day care in violation of quarantine orders. I can’t even! Even if you’re a complete sociopath, kids with measles are SICK and frequently die without medical care. It’s not like chickenpox.

If you aren’t sure about your own immunity, you can get titers done. (Unlike mumps, we don’t see a lot if people who need revaccination, though.)

@process
I had many patients who experienced this. Covid is an absolute crapshoot. Maybe a cold? Maybe death? Maybe lasting misery or deficits for your life.

For liberals, this means forging perhaps uncomfortable alliances — with right-of-center businesspeople, evangelical Christians, and dissident conservatives, among others.

A blue-state coalition is simply not enough.

This is often hard work, and it involves compromise.

But an awful lot is at stake.”"

Ironic that I managed to avoid the virus all this time, despite working in healthcare, but now I can’t be bothered whether the snot rags I throw at the wastepaper basket make it in

@LordsofHardwired I have often said that in all my time, I have never seen evidence of any hell, except what humans create for themselves on Earth.

Not letting the people who currently call the shots keep the world on a collision course with doom is an option. Food and water and medicine and clean air for all is an option. No more wars of conquest is an option.

Build a Heaven, instead.
You have engineers.

We are all PASS-THROUGHS, it's just some of us know and respect those who came before and those who will come after...

Everyone expects @Minholkin to always act like a saint. Her New Year’s resolution should be to tell someone who deserves it to .

@duglop I think people are more bent that they dropped the people off on a holiday when everything is closed with no notice and it's freezing outside. It's cruel! And also their chances of gaining asylum without a record of movement inside the US is ruined but they didn't know they had to have paperwork so whoever did this lied to these people. This is sick. They could have been met with appropriate resources.

Happy new year from Philadelphia. Now I’m going to bed like the old fuddy duddy I am.
