I'm stoked, just wish the J&J one had finished up trials at the same time and had the same efficacy rate since it's a single-dose "get it and forget it" solution. I really hope that everyone who has been able to successfully work from home is allowed to continue to do so even after this is all finished. The ramifications for traffic in the DC region alone has been extremely positive.

Did either of you expect to receive the vaccine in short order?

I ask because I know of two individuals who aren't in the "front of the line" categories and they either received it or were told to expect it.

Perhaps availability is better than expected.

At work we've been told that all employees are now part of the phase 1B of vaccine distribution, and we should plan to schedule our shots sometime around late January or early February.

We just crossed the 3,000 deaths mark in Georgia.

You're gonna get hit HARD with that. In MD, our biggest sector of hospitalizations and deaths were nursing homes and retirement communities.

NJ and NY were using refrigerated trucks regularly.

They just requested refrigerated trucks, the morgues have ran out of room.

The University System of Georgia, after two months of stubbornly telling universities they couldn't mandate masks on campus and professors they couldn't mandate masks in their classrooms, finally got shamed into making masks mandatory in campus buildings. 

Out here on 'the farm' still quiet. Maybe 3 cars out on County RD B a day and 3 cars in. Still see roof of closest neighbor.....isolated you bet.

There is a cookie cutter home development going up on 14th south heading to Lincoln, looks like construction stopped. About 7 miles south of me. They are putting 'cable' in, can't see city folks out here without cable TV and internet. My bet they still won't get out to me with cable.

Momma has not even got a guess as to when she is back in her office. She is actually betting that her 'work at home' doing what she does will be perminant as now heating and air is on her, not the city. Feds did give her big check for office in house, cleaning out one of the storage upstairs bedrooms. Reason she thinks she is here at house till retirement.

This 24/7 so far 127days is killing us...we have not talked divorce...murder twice....no divorce.

Nowhere Nebraska, we are fine. Momma working at home since City of Lincoln mayor sent non-essentials home a few months ago. She is Federal Housing Urban Development but County City Building is closed, since Federal still paid but had office set up in living room for what she does. All three kids here in Lincoln still working, one a UNL as Head Groundskeeper (gotta keep the grass mowed), one from home customer service rep for Target, last IT at Lincoln public schools doing the in house teach from home programming. So no near contact jobs.
Restaurants are every other table 1/3 capacity seating now, no more in store customer limits, WalMart and Super Saver 08-midnight, we have drive in concerts on your FM dial, Garth Brooks just did his, Big Screen at Lancaster Events Center. Lincoln is the states 'hot spot' though. Momma is up over 1500 hand made masks donated to health care, I got some GI issue covid 'manly looking' vented disc masks for me, momma wear here own 'patterned' masks (coffee filter filters).
