UNDBIZ

It's December and UND sports are back on.

Convicted and charged are 2 different things.

It was a horrible policy, but I'd guess that family separation made more than a few potential illegal immigrants reconsider their plans.

Didn't you used to claim you were a Republican anti-Trumper?

He gets credit for mid-February 2020 through early June 2020

Frozen and I were talking about Bismarck.

In Bismarck?

The majority are certainly wearing masks now (as they were a month ago), but there are still plenty ignoring the signs in Walmart, Dan's, and various restaurants (prior to being seated). Of those wearing a mask, I'd guess around 20% have them under the nose.

Then herd immunity is a real thing.

With Thanksgiving coming up, you should've stayed quiet

The excessive (interpretation to the individual) regulation and Iran deal are likely. The rest is fear mongering and exaggeration.

The mask mandate is in place. Masks are still as out of place (on chin or missing completely) in Bismarck as they were a month ago.

Agony? Really?

7-day average positive rate has been falling for 2 weeks. 7-day average new positive cases has been falling for 1 week. Hospitalizations and deaths are trailing issues, but hospitalizations have started plateauing. In ND due to low total numbers, number of deaths can be highly dependent on the population infected, but those numbers should start to follow the downward trajectory in the next couple weeks barring a new outbreak across nursing homes.

It seems the concerns were over his Twitter and outside the classroom discussions. Not sure if it leaked into the classroom or not.

While I found it an amusing read, I can't help but think he is sadly another mental health victim of the pandemic response.

As I said before, it's not about access to inside information, it's about money.

Once everybody is vaccinated, will we all still need to wear masks in public?

If Biden had a party, he be skewered, rightly, as hypocritical. Conservatives still wouldn't be concerned about potential spread of the virus at said party though.

Get out of the extremes. Washing hands should happen even in the absence of Covid-19.

Good point. And agreed. It's just a little frustrating that a vaccine that is 90% effective on young people and still makes some of them sick is seen as the fix for a virus that doesn't significantly impact 95% of young people anyway.
