    You mean deadlier overall, right? (not deadlier for unvaccinated people)

    Not anymore. The COVID-19 deaths so far for police is 231, on pace to exceed last year, when (of course) there was no vaccine available.

    Total Line of Duty Deaths: 362

    I received my COVID-19 booster this morning. I became "eligible" as of Friday (6 months after my last Pfizer vaccine) and made the appointment as soon as I could.

    Bit of a headache and a bit tired, but that could the effects of not sleeping much last night as much as the booster. We'll see what develops.

    That being said, it is well worth it to protect myself, my family, my students (the one who shows up to class, almost all choose the Zoom option), my co-workers (the few I actually see) and the others in my little slice of the world.

    Who would have thought that Puerto Rico has the highest % of vaccinated in the US? Read the thread to understand why this great success story has happened. Embarrassing as well for us in the mainland.

    I'm sure it all was accomplished when the last president spoke with the president of PR and instructed them on how to vaccinate everyone. /s

    This proves that one of the side-effects of the vaccine is to make you Puerto Rican.

    This may not actually be correct, depending on how you define the Navajo Nation

    I'm sure that they put those free paper towels to good use by fashioning them into masks while standing in line for their shots. :thumbsup:

    Does the US not have cheap rapid tests?

    In Germany they've been available in supermarkets and chemists since last year

    They cost less than EUR2 now. We've not used them so much as we just use the nearby testing centre but the kids take them 2x per week in school

    No one feels like translating anti-Vaxxer screeds into Spanish or Navaho?

    Home test kits cost about $10 per test. But drive-through tests at pharmacists are free and more accurate.
