Rick, you are not alone, I know friends & family members that have not left their houses since early March, because they have other other health issue, and can't afford to get the virus. The only time they get out is to go the doctors, or if they go for a ride and don't get out of the car. I hope this Corona virus doesn't last as long as the Spanish flu that lasted from Feb. of 1918 till April  of 1920.

Crossed fingers.   No fun to deal with it.

Yeah, I've actually been doing a slight comparison. It's going to be close to 2 years because the time it will take for everyone to get the vaccine. What followed the Spanish flu was the roaring 20's. People were so tired of being locked in homes in fear of the flu, it launched a surge in people going out. It's pretty wild. Something similar could happen. So things could be really fun later this year, but the scary thought is that the great depression came in the 1930's . Hopefully we don't copy everything. lol

Well it is offical. The NEW YORK JETS now have the longest streak of not making the playoffs at 10 years. The last year we made it was Rex Ryan in 2010 when we lost in the AFC Championship game. I'm 42 and I'm starting to think I will probably NEVER see the Jets in the Super Bowl.

Damn sorry to hear that, how was it before you guys locked down

To be honest the numbers have been getting worse and it was something that we expected.
 

Even with the vaccinations it was never going to eradicate the issue but with the new strand of covid apparently it’s 70% more infectious and the numbers have skyrocketed.

Address lottery for vaccines?

 

No it’s being dealt by a tier system. So starts with the old and vulnerable. Health workers, carers, police etc. 
 

My wife is having our 3rd baby in a few months so we’ve been shielding just to be on the safe side because apparently if you test positive at any point for Covid in the pregnancy they apparently take the baby for tests straight away.
