  1. Just discovered this thread (side effect from a search for something else), and can offer a non-US perspective. I'm just outside of Toronto. At this point, in the province of Ontario, we're at 88.5% of people 12+ with one shot, and 85% with two. Most people have 12+ weeks between the first and second dose. Though this was not recommended or tested protocol (I'm leaving politics out of this), it does seem to provide a more durable immune response. The guess is over time we'll get to 90%, but that's likely as good as we'll get. Flareups are primarily in the pockets of unvaccinated people (they seem to flock together). We had the curse/blessing of being hit hard and early by Delta, and virtually all of our cases are currently Delta. The benefits of being one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world. We also had one of the longest lockdowns in the world, which has loosened up only recently. Masks still in indoor settings unless eating/drinking. The current projection is that we'll have restrictions until next Mar, of course subject to change based on reality. All this is a long-winded way of saying that we're moving into the endemic stage. Earlier in this thread there was a discussion of viable alternatives to live performances. After playing four recent gigs, I've come to the conclusion that there aren't any. The shared experience, the warmth of people getting together - I've really missed this. And the feedback we've received has been that the audience has missed it as much.
  2. So, I thought I would check it out after a VERY long time. So long that the email address was with an ISP that went bankrupt 15 years ago. And my saved password was older than that. That I remembered the password and ID is a certifiable miracle. Glad that this forum survived.
