Americans had a chance for three free shots. Hope these unvaxxed fools have medical coverage
Not shocking, everyone's out here living reckless with no mask.
The fuck up thing is seeing these people catch it and brush it off due to being vaccinated is just contributing to the publics false sense of security.
This country is so fucked up.
These politicians always talking about not having money for something that can benefit for U.S. citizens but magically have money for war...
Actually the way Europe is going I wouldn’t go over there right now
Well the key to this post was she got vaccinated and it most likely probably saved her life that’s the key of this post she made.
Yep. This is what they wanted.
I've never taken my mask off. Everything is not going back to "normal", I'm not sure why people don't realize that yet...
Because "people" as a collective are very often ignorant and susceptible to groupthink. Especially when they are being deliberately fed misinformation, but it's not like that's even needed in some cases.
It's great that you still wear a mask. I do, too. But that doesn;t change the fact that there is a percentage of the people that never wanted to wear masks to begin with. That group has always been part of why this situation hasn't be contained, and they won't willingly go back to mask-wearing after being told they don't have to anymore. They're just that stubborn and/or ignorant.
Ventilation is even better than masking uts why outdoor transmission is almost none.
Opening windows and getting a crosswind is the ultimate way to help prevent spread
Stephen Wilhite, Creator of the Animated GIF, Dies at 74
As looping animations became a staple of the internet, the pronunciation of ‘GIF,’ short for graphics interchange format, was a frequent subject of debate.
Stephen E. Wilhite, a computer programmer who was best known for inventing the GIF, the looping animations that became a universal language for conveying humor, sarcasm and angst on social media and in instant messages, died in Cincinnati on March 14. He was 74.
His death, at a hospital, was confirmed on Thursday by his wife, Kathaleen Wilhite, who said that the cause was complications of Covid-19.
In 1987, while Mr. Wilhite was working for CompuServe, the nation’s first online service, he led a team of engineers who revolutionized how people could share video clips on the internet. They called the format they created a GIF, short for graphics interchange format, a type of compressed image file with an ease of use that made it enduring.
The technology’s appeal expanded from computers to smartphones, giving the famous and the not-so-famous the ability to share GIFs on platforms like Twitter and Facebook and eventually to create their own loops. It inspired the famous “dancing baby” GIF in 1996, which Mr. Wilhite cited as one of his favorites, and popular apps like Giphy.
“I saw the format I wanted in my head and then I started programming,” Mr. Wilhite told The New York Times in 2013.
That year, Mr. Wilhite, who was also a former chief architect for America Online, received a lifetime achievement honor at the Webby Awards.
