There is a massive vaccine distribution about to happen across the country. The next couple of weeks are going to be wild.

Anecdotal evidence but everyone I've personally known that has gotten covid haven't run fevers. I suppose the argument is it can't hurt.. if it manages to catch someone with a fever then it's better than nothing?

Very true. It could catch a case of covid or another virus. I don't mind getting temp checks. I just don't trust that because a fever isn't found a person doesn't have covid.

Interesting. Most places require you to be tested prior to arriving so how is the port of call thing going to work???

As an RN working our Health Dept Vaccine clinics on my days off from my normal nursing job, it's insane starting next week! multiple clinics with large doses available. Next Saturday is a 12-hour shift for me giving vaccines at a Mass site!

The problem is even if transmission is zero after getting the vaccine trying to have two different sets of rules for vaccinated people and non vaccinated people is impossibble to enforce. It just isn't logically feasible.

And for myself I don't care even if transmission is zero I don't want somebody I don't know at the grocery store right behind me in line at WDW without a mask because they claim "they are vaccinated" if I haven't been yet and want to be.

Two sets of rules just isn't workable.

But I think (and hope) that scenario is going to be unavoidable very soon - once the vaccine is available to everyone and has had time to be given to everyone, then you will have no idea who is and is not vaccinated by choice. And mask requirements will be removed before Covid is completely eradicated. So transmission will theoretically be possible for a long, long time - maybe forever.

Agree . My only point is separate rules for vaccinated vs unvaccinated isn't happening. At a point we will drop the rules (or make them optional) but that will also apply to everybody and I do expect we will do it too soon and create one more spike before we are done.

I’ve been calling COVID Coco for most of the past year, so getting on a cruise right now to go to CocoCay cracks me up. Relevant name.

I don't disagree with you here. I just wish there was a way to convince people who are hesitant about the vaccine to get it - and it seems to me that instant gratification (i.e. "you don't have to wear a mask anymore") would be the best way. But I agree with you that, logistically, it would be difficult.
