Chancellor's cited article is consistent w what I previously had read about likely CV-19 immunity. States may or may not end up recommending and administering booster shots. But what if your state doesnt provide a booster shot but, because of the uncertainty of the longer-term protection that vaccines provide, you want to get one anyway? Will you be able to, even if you offer to pay for it? This is an important question that I havent heard anyone talk about yet.

Now this is what a world leader does:
"The Biden administration is purchasing 500 million doses of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine to donate to the global supply, the White House said Thursday. That will provide enough shots to fully vaccinate 250 million people.
The U.S. is donating 200 million doses this year and 300 million doses in the first half of 2022, the White House said. All of the doses will be distributed through COVAX — the global entity that is working to ensure equitable access to COVID testing and vaccines — and will be given to 92 low- and middle-income countries and the African Union.
President Biden will announce the purchase Thursday in his remarks before the Group of Seven summit in Britain. The White House says the vaccines will begin shipping in August."

In today's senseless COVID news:
A grocery store cashier in Atlanta was shot to death by a customer after an argument over a mask. A reserve deputy working security at the store fired at the suspect, who returned fire. Both were injured and taken to local hospitals.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

He will now be a drain on our societal resources for who knows how many years. Anyone capable of murdering a stranger over being told to wear a mask could never be let into society again."I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

Do you have a problem with assholes like this gunman being executed? He doesn't deserve to live."I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."
