So, the CDC removed the Covid guidelines. I’ve never had Covid. I’m afraid people will come into work not wearing a mask and be inconsiderate… ughhh so distracting and disgusting. I’m also at risk to develop complications. Not sure if I should talk to HR. Not even sure if I should ask for accommodations to continue being able to wfh at least most days of the week to reduce risk. Idkkkk 😩This is so unprecedented. I always wear my mask at work. I’m getting pressured to attend firm events as well

What is the best objective source for determining whether to get the COVID 19 vaccine? Looking for sources and raw data and documentaries. I’m not looking for opinions I am looking for references to a variety of medical authorities.

So now I plan to approach this as an objective question to answer like I would any thoroughly researched legal question.

Let’s say the world has 1 woman interested in pursuing advertising and 5 men interested in pursuing advertising. On their first day on the job they come across a river too deep to wade across. They find a small canoe which can carry either one female CD or two male CDs. The canoe cannot hold one male and one female CD at the same time. They only have one canoe to transport the creative department across the river. Everyone can row the boat. How many one-way trips for all to cross the river?
