The thing about doing lockdowns again is that the blue states are in the worse financial shape for them. That, and the fact that many people even here decided the lockdowns were bullshit, is the reason why I still think it unlikely. They just can't afford it. The Biden administration may try to funnel some money to the blue states. But I think this will be limited and they know it will really piss people off.
If we do have another lockdown, it will be like the one during the winter where the gyms were closed, but outdoor restaurant dining is available. We don't even have masking mandates right now. I'll find out come next week. But this is what I think will be the extent of it.

One thing is certain. The U.S. population will not hit 400 million by 2050. We may even see population decline starting next year.

This ticker was linked in Vanden Bossche's Twitter feed. Someone asked Geert if this Ticker was accurate.

Survival of the fittest. Adjust the food supply downward, with population. Make certain there are plenty of Karen's there as well. The choice between sex and peace will be a hard one.
They could be put on ships and the ships used for target practice. But yes, I like the idea of putting them in a situation where they have to fight, and eat, each other in order to survive.

I saw the "Tiger King" during the first lockdown and learned that there any anywhere between 5,000 to 15,000 tigers in private hands. I can think of a use for all of those tigers.

I was talking on the phone to a friend the other night that I just assumed had not gotten the vax. Just didn't seem like the type. I was talking freely and said something negative about the damgers of the vax. She said, "Well, I've got it in me...."
I felt just awful. She's a wonderful gal. So I just kinda tried to backpedal. I said, well, maybe since you didn't have any bad immediate effects (she told me she hadn't), you'll be okay. And I hope she will be.
Why did this young, healthy, athletic, hardworking mother of two get the vax? Because she wanted to be able to visit her much-loved aunt in the nursing home.
The fact that she once again is not allowed to, that she got the vax "all for nothing," has got her pretty frustrated.

@Tickerguy
I really hope this is one of the posts you do NOT "roll over." (I still haven't figured out how all that works; I can only conclude that you deliberately keep that a mystery)
This is one that REALLY needs to stay accessible.
Pretty please.

Tickergroupie, anyone babbling about 5G being a weapon should be immediately removed from your list of credible people.
Inverse Square Law is all you need to know.
The power levels are not of concern.
Most Cell Tower amplifiers are in the 20 to 30 Watt Range.
Your microwave oven has 100 X more power and uses the metal enclosure to ensure the energy bounces around inside until it is absorbed.
An antenna radiating into Free Space rapidly dissipates the energy.
Even a parabolic dish fed with 30 Watts is not much of a danger at 100 feet away.
Just don't stand in the beam 5 feet away.
Are you good with Logarithms or the Decibel scale?
Your cell phone usually needs close to 100Db of amplification or more in the receiver chain.
I used to use some test equipment that had 148 Db of sensitivity to test Cell tower installations.

Next time a vaxxed asshat tells me it would have been worse if he wasn't vaxxed I will tell him "the science", actually data, says you didn't get as sick because Delta isn't as bad as the original. Like all pandemics have acted, forever.

@Heartlander."just VITAMIN D DEFICIENCY SEASON" As I have indicated before, I have no STEM background at all, but no later than last April I did a search on "Vitamin D and Covid" and saw immediately that people with sufficient levels of Vitamin D were not winding up in the ICU or if they did, were not dying.
The amazing thing was that my dispatcher and the maintenance man in our complex already knew this, I mean that Vitamin D would keep you from Covid's worst effects. The medical community already saw it, too, but they could not pick up the phone and call their patients to come in and have their Vitamin D level checked. And why? Because correlation does not mean causation. No, before they could open their mouths, there had to be studies, of course, randomized trials and the like, ad infinitum. They could not say, because "science," MAYBE VITAMIN D WILL HELP. WE ARE NOT ABSOLUTELY SURE, BUT MAYBE.
From what I understand, these Vitamin D studies are still ongoing. My impression is that Vitamin D is being studied far more thoroughly than the mRNA vaccines, the thing that not only does not help but threatens great harm less than than the inexpensive thing that really does help and would have saved billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of lives.
My respect for the medical community has taken a very big hit. Where is common garden variety prudence and common sense? I absolutely do not want a doctor who is in awe of the CDC or the NIH, who cannot open his mouth to save my life.

Late, but at least additional data ~

Kowa said on July 1 that it will carry out a Japanese clinical trial for the antiparasitic agent ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19. It marks the first company-sponsored clinical study in Japan to gauge the drugs benefit in the treatment of the virus.

The problem bluto is that the vaccine doesn't prevent transmission so it will fail legal arguments foe mandates. There's no point because the vaccinated can transmit to others.

The first round of shot series (Two Shots) : 3-5 years to live before enough damage to your circulatory system is destroyed from creation of blood clots.
First Booster Shot - Reduces above outcome by one year (2 - 4 years to live)
Second Booster Shot (One Year After Original Shot Series) - Reduces above outcome by one year (1 - 3 years to live)
Third Booster Shot - Reduces above outcome by one year (0 - 2 years to live)
Forth Booster Shot (Two Years After Original Shot Series)- Reduces above outcome by one year (Less than 1 year to live)
Who wants the bet on the above happening as the deadly shots continue to pump S Proteins into your circulatory system, and cause enough damage to eventually kill you...if you don't die beforehand?

Thanks sll for your answers. It really is lonely holding out and that isolation is a compliance strategy.
Everyone in my family has taken the shot (I'm an adult and live alone). Everyone in my division at work has taken the shot.
Just got a letter from the VA "Hey, you should get the shot. If you got the shot outside of the VA, send us a copy of your shot card".
This is not going to end well.
