On the rise in Texas too, influenza too. See it all over the children's hospital I work with.
- Greg Abbott would be really mad at this comment if he could read.
  
  He'd be so angry he wouldn't stand for it.
COVID is the real Neverending Story
- I mean, so is the flu.
  As a species I think it’s a little bit arrogant that we’d think new challenges to our survival were over. Aside from the current major ones that we kinda look at with worry sometimes but leave be the majority of the time.
  
  I wonder if we’re going to start taking Covid and flu more seriously, or if we just start to blow of Covid as a nothing-burger like most (Americans at least) do for the flu.
The advisory, released Wednesday by Yolo County Public Health
Somehow this isn’t The Onion
- I was in college when yolo was at its height. I had to drive past the sign for Yolo county every time I went to or from home and always got a chuckle.
  
  My junior high school was called Yolo and I was attending it years before the slang phrase was a thing.
- I think Eureka is in Yolo, for another layer.
I sure hope three different corporations quickly come up with three different vaccines so we can indirectly buy them for an undisclosed amount of money and then get sick two months later anyway!
- If it keeps hospitals from overcrowding and the death toll low, I'll take it ¯(ツ)/¯
  
  It did neither though?
- Does it hurt to realize you're that kind of stupid? Has it happened yet?
- Vaccines like the ones for chicken pox do cause fevers. But it's better than getting sick with the actual disease.
