CDC: More Freedom for Fully Vaccinated

The CDC took a step forward back to normalcy today.  The government agency said individual who are "fully vaccinated" against Covid-19 can socialize with other "fully vaccinated" people without a mask or social distancing. The new guidelines give some more nuggets of good news:

Fully vaccinated people can:

  • Visit with other fully vaccinated people indoors without wearing masks or physical distancing
  • Visit with unvaccinated people from a single household who are at low risk for severe COVID-19 disease indoors without wearing masks or physical distancing
  • Refrain from quarantine and testing following a known exposure if asymptomatic

For now, fully vaccinated people should continue to:

  • Take precautions in public like wearing a well-fitted mask and physical distancing
  • Wear masks, practice physical distancing, and adhere to other prevention measures when visiting with unvaccinated people who are at increased risk for severe COVID-19 disease or who have an unvaccinated household member who is at increased risk for severe COVID-19 disease
  • Wear masks, maintain physical distance, and practice other prevention measures when visiting with unvaccinated people from multiple households
  • Avoid medium- and large-sized in-person gatherings
  • Get tested if experiencing COVID-19 symptoms
  • Follow guidance issued by individual employers
  • Follow CDC and health department travel requirements and recommendations

lol whatever. I have yet to wear a cuck muzzle and I’m not taking the genetic modification injection. I will keep on just like I have always done.

It is good to know that I can visit among my vaccinated family members without needing to wear a mask. Hopefully the number of vaccinated people will grow and it will again be safe to go to work, to the store, or to a restaurant without having to worry about COVID being in the air.

The end is getting closer despite Tater's best efforts to keep shooting for herd immunity through direct infection.

But I doubt we are anywhere near the end of having to wade through the anti-Reeves droppings that you insist on depositing here.

I've always felt like I needed to ask the government's permission in order to visit my mother. I'm glad that I now have their permission.

Why is this fodder for frivolous, and ignorant, raillery? The CDC seems to be speaking sensibly here. Do what you like, of course. But
as for me, I will continue to mask in public, will not dine indoors at a restaurant, or patronize businesses that have no mask mandates. I don’t see the terrible inconvenience, erring on the side of caution. And as for hugging people: ugh. Always hated it, and good riddance to that practice. But...to each his own, and y’all go party on, if it feels right to you.

'Raillry'? Is that even a woid?

I feel much better now. I have been looking over my shoulder looking for Fauci's brown shirts.

As a business owner, i do not understand the “avoid quarantine” section. I’m forbidden to ask employees about their vaccinations as they are medical questions. If they volunteer them, sure. If not, I cannot take them at their word.

Look it up, 8:56. But you will need to spell it correctly: “raillEry,” not “raillry,” you putz.

I am a doctor, I am fed up with basic epidemiology concepts being assigned some political significance. Herd immunity is a real concept and has nothing to do with politics. And if you haven't been keeping tract, we are at the lowest point in the pandemic since the start, with 70 cases reported state wide. Now, if only 290K have had the virus, and we have the same in vaccinations, that add up to about 600k in total either vaccinated or infected with immunity (give or take based on how long antibodies last and if that even matters. So we have 3.3 million documented residents. Do the math 600000/33000000 equals .18 or 18 percent. Herd immunity is reached between 70-90 percent infected or vaccinated combined. Why are the numbers falling? Because the vast majority of infections are silent. so in reality we have had 2.3 to 2.8 million cases in the state that haven't been detected.

It is assuring to hear that not all medical professionals have given themselves over to superstition and propaganda. Why don't 'public health' officials spend a little time on improving health through weight loss and nutrition? More effective than masks.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
