I’m not entirely sure whether your aim is to sarcastically call out the year long fear porn published by MSM and pols or you are truly worried.
25% of Americans will not take COVID Vaccine

He didn’t wait to reopen until July last year-why would he this year? Guy opened amusement and water parks last summer!!! Then said kids can’t go to school. Stop your nonsense questions
The latter. I am not going because the recent trends the last few days. @Merge is not up to date with the latest data. RT rate is almost at 1 and cases)hospitalizations have been increasing the last few days. Ms Judy mentioned in today's article she expects hospitalizations and cases to "creep up" the next few days because of the variants. Please remember I did predict this.
N.J. reports 48 COVID deaths, 2,820 cases. Hospitalizations down by half since December.
Gov. Phil Murphy said news that Merck will help rival and fellow New Jersey drugmaker Johnson & Johnson produce its new vaccine will “supercharge” the state’s vaccination efforts.
The risk outdoors is different than the risk indoors but we have a vaccine now so things are different.
I am just asking what your view is regarding how he should respond that would not be self serving?
Ok... So things are improving, hospitalizations and deaths are down and the action you want Murphy to take is to stand up to the teachers union?
The President keeps moving his goalpost. He said he could see a somewhat normal for Christmas 2021. Now he is seeing we will probably be back to normal in March 2022. A year from now!
He should’ve months ago but he doesn’t care
Well off kids are learning
The vast majority aren’t
And he doesn’t care
so you think he shouldn’t try to do something?
@Merge Hello. RT rate is .99. Ms Judy expects the RT to go above 1 tomorrow. Ms Judy has been warning about the outbreak to go above 1 for awhile now. She warned us if we couldn't get down to .7 we would not be able to avoid a march spike.

N.J. reports 63 COVID deaths, 2,957 cases as J&J doses arrive at vaccination sites
The update comes a day before the one-year anniversary of the first case of COVID-19 being confirmed in the state.
Watch the video. Toward the end of the video. Did the Governor just admit he's never removing his indoor mask EO? It looks like I will be right! We will be wearing masks for a very long time.
Hello. Nj cases up 14% from the previous week. RT now stands at 1.01. Its ok if you do not want to listen but there will be a variant surge.
Also interesting read below. I remember reading from this doctor just a couple weeks ago how he was optimistic about the effectiveness of the vaccine. That optimism has now faded completely. He is now "losing sleep at night" because he thinks variants are going to evade immunity.
A peer reviewed study found the brazilian variant is completely evading vaccines. Not good, not good at all.

@Merge Hello. Positivity rates increasing week over week for a few counties and NJ went up from "Moderate" to "High". Rt is above 1. Is the outbreak increasing or decreasing? It appears I am going to be right. We are heading toward a variant spike this month.

N.J. COVID activity returns to high after brief drop to moderate. Here’s what that means for schools, nursing homes.
The northwest region of New Jersey moved back into the high category for coronavirus activity levels this week.
That is probably the highest compliment someone could receive in PirateCrew!
In the last 7 days.
How many positive / number of tests
Compare the 7 days prior, and 7 days before that? and so on....
Yep, and lowest number of patients hospitalized with Covid since October 26th.
Those metrics combined with the rate of vaccination is why I am optimistic on returning to normal
Same thing it did back when I posted this..
That's the thing about finding the right metrics to use. Once you believe you have the right metrics to understand the trend, you get to let the data tell the story instead of hunting for the data that will tell the story you want to it to tell. Funny that you never post about rt on a down trend...
Positivity rate and change in hospitalizations.
Those are the metrics I let tell me what is happening.

Dr Osterholm has been a voice of reason during this pandemic. He will be right again. Osterholm said that we are walking into a "monster" because of the variant risk increasing and states opening up. Because of these circumstances he sees another high surge in March and April.
@Merge Should we listen to experts such as Osterholm and Fauci? Or no?

Widespread vaccinations are seen as one path on the journey back to normalcy in the Covid-19 pandemic | CNN
As the US moves closer to widespread vaccinations, many states are changing their policies around Covid-19 restrictions.
I agree, and I meant it that way. He seldom goes into the weeds, is rational and intelligent, just maybe a bit too responsive to the troll. I don’t always agree with him, and he is a bit of a generalist, but his debates are always the best.
You agree states opening up with no mask mandates? You don't think the virus will spread faster again in those states? This will not push back our recovery?
Yes. Governments should not force their citizens to wear masks. If businesses want to, that is their right. If people want to wear it, fine, go ahead. Just don't force people who don't want to.
