SEE HOW SMART WE WERE NOT TO WASTE TIME WITH VACCINATIONS!
so this lambda variant is vaccine-resistant, huh
Whelp, just found out my golf partner on Saturday for almost 6 hours (match went 6 extra holes) texted positive, even though vaxxed. We were outside the whole time, but sitting a foot from each other in the cart a lot and def high fived/shook hands a few times. He had Moderna, I have Pfizer. Wonder what my odds of catching it are? This is where I really hope my immune system has beefed up it's response with work travel, even pre-vaxx.
That's what you get for slow play. I would bet you're fine though.

Serious question: why would you touch someone who is not in your normal circle at all these days?
It’s also been around in Peru since 2020 and consists of less than .02% of US cases.
Meaning it is significantly less contagious than the delta variant.
This is literally the Jude law plot in the movie *Contagion*. Just making bank selling some "vitamin" cureThis is an actual FB post from the wife of a guy I used to work with. She also posts videos talking about this nonsense. It is both sad and scary that people believe this, but how do you even reason with someone that is telling you to do your own "research" and to go buy these drugs from this kook website.View attachment 1269
I have no concern re: covid transmitting by touch or surface
am I wrong?
He's a neighbor and buddy of mine I see regularly. We were both vaxxed, outdoors, and celebrating a birdie with a fist bump or high five seems pretty natural/not high risk. I guess maybe even the vaccinated should go back to full caution these days.
If you're saying non-household humans shouldn't shake hands, hug, etc. for the foreseeable future (at this rate, maybe forever), that's quite an argument to be made.
I just don't see the point. I've been doing the forearm/elbow bump thing with golf buddies. No reason to touch hands, which like it or not you eventually rub your nose/eyes/mouths with. Just an easy vector to avoid.
