Saw a bit of CNN with my dad and noticed something. They have it displayed that there are over 14 million confirmed cases of Covid and counting, but only a few hundred thousand of people died from it.

I can't be the only one that finds that to be nothing worth stressing over, right? Assuming that those deaths were 100% caused by covid..

14 million cases, is that just in the US, which has a population of over 328 million? Does it somehow count all the people that got covid and recovered without ever going to the doctor or getting tested? So many layers of things to think about.

This is honestly heartbreaking and horrifying. More of these stories need to be circulated, if not for the "SHUT IT DOWN!!1111" screechers, but for the normies who can work from home and don't appreciate how the lockdowns and restrictions are cotinually destroying American lives.

This isn't surprising, or even particularly alarming. Many schools/places of employment already require vaccines, this would just be one more added to the required list. I do think that places that didn't require vaccines previously (for example, concerts) may find that adding the requirement will harm their business (I don't know a single person who doesn't already want the vaccine who would be willing to get it so they can go to a concert), but that's something we'll see once it's out and those businesses reopen.

Was that the one where a California bar owner breaks down after seeing an outdoor catering service for a film within the parking lot of her closed bar? The poor woman was at the verge of tears when she talked about her outdoor service getting closed for being "dangerous" while the film stuff was "safe".

Here's the link to the thread on /r/lockdown skepticism, it's a pretty fucked up situation to say the least.

Schools I have heard of, though with exceptions granted usually, but what types of employers currently require vaccines?

Pasadena Volunteers To Patrol Streets, Help Enforce Mask Mandates​

PASADENA (CBSLA) – The city of Pasadena will have volunteers walking city streets to ensure people are wearing face coverings.

Volunteers will walk major streets around Pasadena to hand out masks to those who don’t have them and make sure those who do are wearing them.

Pasadena city spokesperson Lisa Derderian told CBSLA Thursday the Rose Bowl Loop has been an area of concern. Last weekend, code enforcement officers informed 75 runners on the Rose Bowl loop trail that they need to wear face coverings.

“This is something that we need to take very seriously, our numbers are significantly increasing daily, hospitalization is going up, the data shows that we’re gonna need to shut down more,” Derderian said.

Derderian said about 60 signs reminding people to wear masks were taken down or vandalized this week.

Meanwhile, a limited stay-at-home order took effect Friday for Pasadena. It prohibits all public and private gatherings and events with people from more than one household — except for faith-based services and protests.

Despite the stay-at-home order, Pasadena is the only city in Los Angeles County which still allows outdoor dining. Although the L.A. County Public Health Department banned outdoor dining last week, Pasadena is exempt from that order because it has its own health department, which chose not to enforce the ban.

On Nov. 16, the California Department of Public Health approved an expanded orderwhich makes it mandatory for all people statewide to wear face coverings when they are outside of their homes, unless they meet certain exemptions, such as being in a car or actively eating or drinking. The order does not apply to children under the age of 2.
