Or will they just be like ehhh throw it in the same argument as the rest of them. Then if you get the Omicron vaccine, do you need the other vaccines as well. Now I don't know what the facts on Novavax is but there seems to be not as a huge push behind it as others. What’s up with the military one that works for everything?

But seriously, when it comes to who has helped shape the culture of the board we all love the past 15 years it goes 1. @mugtang 2. @happycamper With no third. Happy has spent so many countless hours directing our favorite awards and games on top of his moderation duties, he has never handed out a warning or ban that was not earned, not once. Posters here are being salty bitches saying because he has the audacity to MWCboard in the same vein as most everybody else and because of that he should not mod. Those saying that are insane and have no idea what the dude has dedicated to this place. If you want Happy gone, I am gone as well. There is a reason why Happy was the ONLY moderator that had Mug's complete faith. Give your balls a tug bitches, happy can MWCboard the same way we all do and still be a great moderator. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I don't know what the facts on Novavax is but there seems to be not as a huge push behind it as others. Too early. Right now, it doesn’t even look like an Omicron-specific vaccine is all that’s needed. Then the next variant? Time to wait and watch on that. A pan-coronavirus vaccine may be here is a year of two.

They still have a lot of testing on it but the issue also is we are going to have other variants form so we don't really know what they are saying is true or not. And if it is true then that brings up more questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the mod in the Wild West days before mug and wasn’t heavy handed at all.. I really had no business being a mod and really all I did was delete links selling golf clubs and the occasional porn. Occasionally I’d edit @Warbowprofile to profess his love of Dog Chapman. I wish someone would find ragtime Joe and tell him it’s ok to come back home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have an issue with Happy, it is most likely because he kicked your ass in some online arguments that have NOTHING to do with his moderating duties. I agree. As someone who has never had his ass kicked by @happycamper in an online argument. Or anyone. Ever. Forever and ever. Amen. 1 Quote Planning is an exercise of power, and in a modern state much real power is suffused with boredom. The agents of planning are usually boring; the planning process is boring; the implementation of plans is always boring. In a democracy boredom works for bureaucracies and corporations as smell works for skunk. It keeps danger away. Power does not have to be exercised behind the scenes. It can be open. The audience is asleep. The modern world is forged amidst our inattention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that didn't answer the question of would they make people get the Omicron vaccine after pushing the second and booster shot vaccine. Or will they just get it if you want or just forget about it? I was holding off on the booster for just this reason. I wasn’t going to get one every four months and was confident in my T cell/memory B cell protection from the first two. I wanted to wait for an eventual mutation that it didn’t protect against. Omicron has spread so fast and so many people that I know recently caught it. So I decided to get the booster on Tuesday because I don’t think I will avoid Omicron in the next 6 weeks. This will be my last/only dose for 2022. I’ve only had one beer this evening@Nevada Convert. A nice 9% Doppelbock @NorthWestCowboy. Side note: I enjoyed a Dragon’s Milk over the holidays @happycamper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Side note: I enjoyed a Dragon’s Milk over the holidays @happycamper I haven't gotten a booster either and don't plan to at this point in time. However that could change because everything is fluid right now. My mom has gotten the booster because they were offering it at work, my brother's partner won't be but he is double vaxxed and even had Covid which his doctor said he wouldn't get it at this time either for him, but again everything is fluid right now. My friend did kind of hint if I went to see them, they kind of would like me to get the booster first, just in case.

wolfpack1 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 So maybe some musings For the last couple of days appears the confirmed new cases have been leveling off just a bit; there is a spike on the 11th but there was a big data belch on that day CDC COVID Data Tracker Deaths also haven't spiked up like cases have which many were fearing and again the spike on the 11th was data belch day CDC COVID Data Tracker Hospitalizations have seem not to be rising as quickly as they once were as they have been right around 152,000-153,000 for about three days now. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/hospitalization-7-day-trend/inpatient-capacity In Québec they have stopped testing for the general public as supplies aren't there to keep it going https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/pcr-tests-stopped-omicron-quebec-1.6304313 In BC they are asking people who are vaccinated and showing symptoms not to test and isolate for 5 days and if asymptomatic can then return to work. In the UK there is more optimism they have reached their peak with confirmed cases, which would be around the time some scientists and doctors thought they would, which if what keeps in the past keeps now, US will probably reach peak at the end of the month if not possibly a little sooner. https://covid.joinzoe.com/post/omicron-waves-had-finally-peaked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKCiuWL0qnw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRycK82LsTE Some big cities in US there is some optimism they may have peaked with new cases 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no reason here to kiss anybodies ass, including telling the new owner he is being a +++++tard multiple times. I am telling you, as a matter of fact, no other single poster has shaped MWCboard culture we all love as much as happy. You don't like him because as a poster he kicks your ass up and down, Convert. It has NOTHING to do with his abilities as a mod. It seems a lot of you shit heads (I say with all the love in me little heart) think a mod can't be one of you.
