How does this end? I think we get herd immunity and open it up. The economy is tanking and folks are getting restless. Eventually this will be just like the flu. With us year round and we have to just deal with it.

The CDC doesn’t give tax advice, so I don’t think accountants should speculate on medical advice.

The issue is there is a lot more than just medical issues at stake here and we need to balance everything - so the opinion of those with business and economic experience also play a part in the calculus of how we handle this pandemic

Lmao, great. op probably lives in Florida or Texas. Keep thinking it’s “smoke and mirrors”manager 1. Also, South Korea has shown that herd immunity isn’t a thing since people have gotten it twice

A2 - There are different strains of the flu and the vaccine is for different types of influenza viruses. If you can get reinfected as PwC 1 claims (against all scientific evidence thus far), then a vaccine wouldn’t work at all.

Deloitte - rescinds hire offer from Harvard grad for threatening remarks.

Also Deloitte - hires this fool.

There only two ways for us to get herd immunity. One, we immunize the population with a vaccine. Two, we expose the population to the virus and the ones who survive will develop immunity. If we go with two, the economy will continue to tank as the population will either be fighting off the effects of the disease or dealing with their friends/family who may be experiencing more severe effects, meanwhile hospitals will be overcapacity.

Tell me how a company is supposed to be more productive when they have a whole plant, warehouse, store, or office floor infected.

Really annoyed that during a majorly stressful campaign (for a client that quite frankly sucks lol) that in every meeting, forum etc Project Management isn’t EVER mentioned in the acknowledgements. I guess it’s normal but I guess since I almost lost my mind and had three anxiety attacks in one just one week alone I’m feeling salty. I can’t even begin to describe the mental, emotional and spiritual fortitude this took. Again I know I’m preaching to the choir, PM is such a thankless job but argh!

We’re getting married next spring and trying to put together our website.
Many weddings we’re attending this year have some sort of Covid-disclaimer on them saying “please have a negative PCR test or be vaccinated beforehand” (paraphrasing), but it’s the honor system, no one is checking.
For 2022, is that type of language necessary? Vaccines will have been out 1 year. The state we are getting married won’t require it (southern state), it feels like it’s on the individual wedding to say (or not).
