#319. Mayhem

I walk by the Heinz Field (and the PNC Park) Covid vaccination centers on pretty much a daily basis.  When they first started administering the Pfizer shots, there were lines outside that extended the entire length of a football field.  Then, a couple of weeks passed and there was rarely a line outside.  But it was still crowded.  Relatively steady walk up crowd.  Then, last week when I got my second shot, it was steadily moving but relatively sparse.  

But just this last week, there has been very little activity.  Hardly any vehicles.  In fact, the Heinz Field location seem pretty much deserted.  Just a cop with a clipboard sitting outside Gate A... who's debating whether or not to publicly pick his nose.  To pick or not to pick.  Not a good sign.

It seems there's a similar trajectory unsurprisingly manifesting itself around the country.  Coinciding with the Trumpaholics, science deniers, and Foxy fake newsers become an increasingly larger percentage of the non-vaccinated pool who identify as members of the human race.  Like I was saying.  That... was an inevitable predictability.  

Now for the China Virus, Kung Flu, whatever you wanna call it, it's my general understanding that herd immunity starts to kick in if you're able to fully vaccinate around 70%-80% of the population.  Right now we're around 40%.  Now taking into account my anecdotal, observational timeline... but more importantly, considering the blanket dumb-shitted-ness of Americans in general, I am experiencing increasingly diminished expectations for a "back to normal" summer for concerts, sports, etc. 

Sucked!

Dedicated to Mike Pompeo and all of the other Trumpian stooges who willfully and obnoxiously use the term Chinavirus.

Covid the kicked up drama, it's chaos time
Fuck all you vaccine seekers, shit isn’t fine
The nurses don’t care to seem to care which arm
As long as the dose is strong
Thrustin’ so true and pelvic
And too many on the far right wrong

Pfizer his Johnson Johnson, it could be wise
Moderna him ’til he’s gay, he will despise
The world won’t ever care that’s right
There’s always a dude that fights

So tragic and all (so tragic, so tragic and all)
Mayhem (so tragic and all)

Worry the bottle Mamma, it's grapefruit wine
Kick off your high heel sneakers, it's party time
The girls don't seem to care what's on
As long as they play 'til dawn
Nothin' but blues and Elvis
And somebody else's favorite song

Give her some funked up muzak, she treats you nice
Feed her some hungry reggae, she'll love you twice
The girls don't seem to care tonight
As long as the mood is right

No static at all (no static, no static at all)
FM (no static at all)
