Well, so far the only thing this plague has done is blow up the housing market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty21 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 There was an outbreak at my work, 5 people were out and management/owners hushed it so none of us would know and now another bartender found out he has it and I’m sick now too after working in close proximity to him (I got vaccinated, but no immune system). Getting tested tomorrow for Covid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and tbh its continuing to follow the same pattern of seasonality we saw last year. Seasonality in Florida, Texas, etc. means the virus will peak in the summer when everyone goes inside into the AC. That seasonality plus Delta and not enough vaccine coverage is driving a major surge in the south. The same exact surge we saw last July. The northeast should be in a better spot come the winter because of higher vaccine coverage than the south but I'd still expect cases to tick up as the whether gets colder in late November through January.

The only criminal act I’m aware of involving disease is knowingly exposing someone to AIDS. Might be others though, but I doubt it would constitute anything other than a civil action. Maybe a regulatory action too, depending on the industry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
