The site can serve 300 people, but I don't know if it's true that they are serving 300 people a day. Just like the signs that say maximum capacity is so and so, the public relations posting is written in the best of light

And just how is the Morse family making a buck on this?

I just hope they act responsibly and not go into Dunkin’ Donuts for coffee and a donut before or after! Why not do it at Wildwood community center since they are receiving 3 million from the government for Covid related costs!

When antibodies are not at their optimum level, don't the T Cell and B Cells spring into action to fight off the pathogen? Immunity from the vaccine works this way too, doesn't it? Your expertise is needed. Thanks.

There were logistical problems with the open field solution not to mention the cost of the structures. Those particular problems will be solved by this solution.

While this is certainly not an ideal situation, perhaps there aren't a lot of alternatives. A hospital setting would be better but the hospitals have their own set of problems right now.

(and for future reference, the word is outrageous)

The answer is get vaccinated!

For a whole lot of people, that ship has sailed; attempts at treatment are all they have left.

What about using the savanna center, it has a large parking lot and it is isolated!

[Rsenholzi]

My question is how are they going to sanitize the theater to protect those who go to the movies after it eventually reopens . Also, how are they going to prevent those who are sick from walking through the stores and eating in the restaurants. Do you really think those who refused to be vaccinated and refused to wear masks are really going to quarantine themselves after they get the treatment?

As the saying goes "If ignorance is bliss, tis folly to be wise".

Just look at the numbers -- the vaccine IS very, very helpful.

Is it available? I thought I saw previous posts noting that it was currently open and conducting business.

[Gray lady of the sea]

Thank you ! I agree with you

Just heard on the radio that the porta potties in the parking lot are worth checking out. Propane powered with A/C and showers.

In general, you are correct, that's basically how immunity works. While it is probably the same with the mRNA vaccines, we don't know since this is the first time they've been distributed on a massive scale. The mRNA message only codes for the spike protein, as opposed to more traditional vaccines that are broader in scope. Eventually, a mutation may develop that exhibits what's called "antigenic variation"---meaning the virus could camouflage its spike protein to hide from our immune systems. Another reason to get everyone vaccinated
