  1. Glennon Trubisky Foles Wentz! 4th time's the charm
  2. Kendall County is doing big vaccine clinics for 1a and 1b this weekend, so maybe that's a sign we're done taking weekends off.
  3. It's not entirely rationing. West Virginia was able to get the shots on-hand into arms much, much quicker than most other states. It really seems like Walgreens and CVS have dropped the ball in getting the 1a shots out as quickly as possible.
  4. Russia's Sputnik-V adenovirus vaccine posted solid phase 3 efficacy data as well.
  5. More general econ than stock gambling, but the job market for people 18-59 has been flat for 20 years. All job gains over the past two decades have gone to people age 60+
  6. We're still taking weekends off for some reason
  7. Yeah, Walgreens changed their site so that site no longer works, but also isn't really necessary. If you go through Walgreens' website, it now searches for available time slots within 25 miles. It used to be you had to select a store, then a day, then look at each 3-hour time slot. Rinse and repeat for every store you want to check and every day you want to check. There's nothing available anywhere in the Chicago area or any of the other half dozen metro areas I checked, though.
  8. Don't know when they started production, they owe 100M by end of June. That gives them roughly 18 weeks to produce and deliver 98M more assuming they get EUA in late February. 5.5M per week. I have no idea how many Moderna and Pfizer are producing a week right now. e: looks like 4.4m/week each which isn't enough to meet their targets In the last few weeks, they've each been steadily delivering about 4.3 million doses a week, according to an NPR examination of vaccine allocation data. But to hit their targets of 100 million doses on time, they each need to deliver 7.5 million doses a week for the next nine weeks.
  9. J&J has 2m doses ready to ship whenever they get EUA https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-28/j-j-covid-vaccine-supply-to-start-at-2-million-doses-gao-says
  10. Walgreens website is an absolute disaster to try to check for available 1b appointments, so somebody built a website that uses their API to very quickly search all nearby walgreens. https://getmyvaccine.org/ Looking through all the ones I see in the western and southwestern suburbs, it looks like they're preparing for some shots on the 11th and a ton on the 17th.
  11. How is DOGE different from any other crypto?
  12. One of the major takeaways people should be having is that letting this thing run rampant to get "natural herd immunity," while always an absurd and deadly proposal with little to no chance of working, is making it harder to effectively vaccinate against because we've got so many breeding grounds for new variants.
  13. All of these first gen vaccines being so effective at preventing severe disease and hospitalization really is great news. I think there'd be stronger positive response to J&J's data if they had come first, and then we slowly built up to the mRNA platform's 94-95%. e: also possible that the earlier trials of the mRNA vaccines benefitted from going up against fewer variants that have had selection pressure to avoid antibodies, and if they were run now they'd see similar results. The Oxford/AZ data still looks like a complete mess, though. There are so many poorly handled parts of the trials in various countries that it's hard to really know what's going on with that one.
  14. Cool, thanks. Checking out their website, and it's so much more user friendly than Walgreens. You have to check store-by-store, day-by-day, 3-hour-chunk-by-chunk with them. Some great news/bad news on Novavax: 90% efficacy against most strains, but only about 50% effective (with large error bars, so maybe much less, maybe as high as 70% effective) against the SA variant.
  15. Is Jewel only doing 65+ or anyone in 1b?
  16. Why should we take WeBull's CEO at his word, though? e: and how do you square that with RH's "we're doing this to protect YOU" message?
  17. Is it true that RH and possibly others were allowing you to sell GME but not buy it today? Seems like pretty blatant market manipulation.
  18. abolish all common stock corporations imo
  19. The top 10 are 1 New Zealand 2 Vietnam 3 Taiwan 4 Thailand 5 Cyprus 6 Rwanda 7 Iceland 8 Australia 9 Latvia 10 Sri Lanka The US is ranked 94th and the UK 66th
  20. This guy with Shaw media does a good thread every day on the IDPH's press conference/data releases. Daily state number updates, then vaccine numbers, and then region-by-region info.
