    Your insurance might have something to say, too.

    Do you mean, like:
    "We (provider) will pay $100 toward the vaccine by X, which has a price of $120 and is 85% effective. If you choose Y, which is 97% effective but costs $980, the additional cost must be made by you."

    Something like that?

    Yep, but just for starters... How about if in-network physicians are “encouraged” to only provide 1 (preferred) option?

    Frankly, most people won’t even know or care which vaccine they are getting.

      Most providers will only get one kind, at least at the beginning.

      I’m prepared to shop around to get the one I want, if I need to.

      Only non-witches get due process.

            Personally, I think the US Market for vaccines will be a lot lower by late January.

              And Luke’s test came back positive... That’s one less vaccine needed (for at least 9 months...)

                Not a surprise, but a disappointment nevertheless. Please keep us updated on Luke, and the rest of the family, of course.

                  Sorry to hear about Luke - hope this he avoids the long haul.

                    Odds are very much in his favor.

                    My nephew was 24, and shook it off in four days, with mostly flu-like symptoms.

                      I’m indifferent to Pfizer and Moderna. If Astra Zeneca gets to 90% I’m indifferent to that as well. I don’t care about the diff between 90 and 95%. Not exactly sure when I start thinking about it maybe under 85%. I don’t know. I will make sure everyone I know gets it fast, that matters most.

                        On another note, my wife's friend is doing a bit better. She may make it.

                        Part of her problem was a bleed, and they did give her one unit. SIL says they are seeing a lot of bleeds with patients on Remdesivir.

                                    Sounds like her meds are helping! That and weeks of time. Gosh, that's awesome to hear.

                                      “Presenteeism”. 😬

                                      That is a problem. People feel their company is going to collapse if they are not there. (I guess in this case, he actually was not having symptoms at first.)

                                        Was the guy wearing his mask? Trav shouldn’t have gotten it if they were both wearing masks!

                                        That’s the kind of stuff we are hearing about Luke... Oh, we also have people from Church that saw him two weeks ago wanting to go get tested now.

                                        The mask thing gets me, though. This pro-mask-anti-mask thing has gotten irrational and in my opinion the pro-mask has gotten to be as dangerous or even more dangerous than the anti-mask group.
