There are so many ludicrous doomsday epidemic movies - a few more: Outbreak, Doomsday, and one we just watched last night, It Comes at Night.
Opening scene of Omega Man was pretty epic.
Was Charlton Heston in the 70s at it's peak.
Omega Man - the virus was spread by bats
I am legend - the virus was a result of the "vaccine" for cancer
Last man on earth - unknown source
on point references.

yep, more ridiculous, anti-science plots
my person fav is 12 Monkeys, but that is more about making your own fate
(or maybe about the vortex of insanity)

Moderna or Pfizer?
My wife had her first and I was surprised (and glad) that she didn't have any side effects.

Man too bad this was about your wife and not you!
Now that Cali has reached 7.5% confirmed (worldometers), using the 7x multiplier (CDC),
that exceeds 50% - of the population. We should see cases start to go down because of
a less receptive environment - not counting the re-entry of earlier cases into the pool of susceptible.
The bulk of the cases come after Nov 1, and the current CDC estimate of immunity is "at least"
3 months, and the introduction of a vaccine, which is hoping for a year, should put it on the decline.
will revisit in a month.
North and South Dakota are both over 11% confirmed - using 7x there puts them near the herd immunity estimate.
the graph seems to agree? They also had the worst mortality rate (.18% of population - worldometers) outside the northeast, where the deaths were early
during the unprepared/learning curve time. That number is tight with Rick's estimate -
Combined, the Dakotas make up about 0.5% of the US population.

That means NJ is close to 50% also?

Which means yes, 50%, per your previous post re: California. Same here in Florida, about 50% now, plus another 5% vaccinated. Should start dropping off soon.

Heard this morning that my neighbor's whole family got it about a month ago, carried in by a babysitter. We're friendly but don't socialize so I hadn't heard. Mom was in/out of the hospital a few times.
In better news, my pilot friend gets his first shot today. IIRC, he's 1C.

Stanford study shows lockdowns not very effective - most transmission happening at home.
