    The correct law is basically "shall issue", so I think New York law will have to change. That said, there are a lot of restrictions New York can legally do. Things like requiring safety classes, basic proficiency classes, requalification and denial of permit for various legal infractions (domestic violence, etc.).

    RIP, and condolences to family.

    I used to work with a surgeon who nearly died after a bike vs car encounter.

    "The remaining eight institutions will work together in a collaborative manner to thoughtfully and strategically position the Big 12 Conference for continued success, both athletically and academically, long into the future.”

    So the Big 12 will be 8, not 10? Hmm.. I'm spotting a trend.

    Orlando goes code red:

    AdventHealth, Central Florida’s largest hospital chain, has once again elevated its emergency status due to rising COVID-19 patients, health care officials announced Monday.
    The hospitals have been under a green status, or business as normal, for a few months when vaccinations were increasing but on Thursday AdventHealth announced it was elevating its status to “yellow” and now AdventHealth is again upgrading to a level “red.”
    AdventHealth Orlando Chief Medical Officer Dr. Victor Herrera addressed the change on Monday during a COVID-19 update with Orange County officials.
    “We are approaching an all-time high, in terms of our inpatient, number of COVID-19 cases, which is a stretch in our capacity,” Herrera said.

    I was just talking about vaccination hesitation with a pharmacist friend of mine. He doesn't think this current event down here will move the needle very much. I disagree. I've always said it takes a certain amount of dead or extremely sick people, before you get some folk's attention. I know we have some breakthrough cases - more than I'm comfortable with - but we still have a lot of unvaccinated people, especially in the rural areas.

    I think the current COVID fais do-do will bump another 10-15% of the state's population into being vaccinated. Then again, I've been wrong before...
