Well now that all the lgbt festivals are over I wonder if the spread will significantly decrease.

 

I was pleasently surprised san diego pride didnt see many upticks so maybe it was just a cluster thing. 

They're not over, Vancouver Pride is this weekend (Grindr is BURSTING with out of town gays on the prowl, including tons from the States) and Montreal pride is next weekend :rip:

Should we save the vaccine for the vulnerable (health care workers, restaurant staff, hotel staff etc) or be selfish and get it ASAP?

Seems they were trying to find the right framing on the messaging without stigmatizing. No easy answers as it's primarily, though not exclusively, through sexual activity between MSM.  

 

He certainly has a right to appeal the decision based on New York's new whistleblower laws, etc.

the lack of vaccines and planning is ridiculous. not to mention the requirements to even get one. I don't qualify because I'm not on PrEP or have a history of STDs like what the ****? :hoetenks:

I didn't see that as requirements for the Health Departments in several cities in the states. Has that changed recently? Where are you?

I'd engage on the premise that any qualifications for a limited vaccine for people that have multiple sex partners include requirements to be on Prep if that directive wasn't from Texas - even blue dot Houston. 

 

Nothing they're bringing to the table is in good faith for MSM health. There's absolutely a layer of politics there. Wow.

 

Have you considered travelling elsewhere?

I’d say if you’re likely to sleep around or go to circuit parties in the next few months then go ahead and get the vaccine. If you think you can stay abstinent until the vax is widely available then try to hold off.
 

No point in getting the vaccine if you’re not likely to be exposed but if you think you might get exposed then you might be saving yourself and others you’ll come into contact with in the process.

From what I’ve seen, most places seem to have a rule about living or working in the state in order to qualify for the vaccine but I’m not sure about California or Nevada specifically. I’d kinda expect Nevada to be more difficult about it though.

They're probably booked out through next week, as most of the shipment from Denmark won't start coming to the States until Mid-August.

 

So look tonight and try to book. Don't wait.

I've read and heard multiple stories of gay men flying from LA to Vancouver and NYC to Toronto for vaccines and succeeding, for what it's worth.

 

That was last week though. Don't know if things have changed since then.

I already got vaccinated against MP since last week. According to my GP I should have vaccine's full protection by next week (14 days after the first dose) 


It's also 2 weeks or so after the Lady Gaga's concert. I can eliminate the risk of getting MP from there, but I might need to do some other STDs test cuz it is kinda itchy down there :bibliahh:
