1 Death, 1 New Hospitalization, 113 New Cases Reported
Press release from Humboldt County Public Health:
Humboldt County Public Health reported today the death of a resident aged 80 or older due to COVID-19. Staff in the Department Operations Center extend their condolences to all who have lost a loved one to the virus.
An additional 113 new cases of COVID-19 were reported, bringing to 12,619 the total number of residents who have tested positive for the virus. One new hospitalization, a resident in their 70s, was also reported.
As of Tuesday, Public Health and other local vaccinators have administered a total of 171,028 doses of COVID-19 vaccine. Local vaccination data has been updated on the Humboldt County Data Dashboard. Highlights include:
- Since the last weekly report on Jan. 5, a total of 973 vaccine doses were administered, and 477 additional residents completed their vaccine series.
- Nearly 63% of the county’s total population were fully vaccinated as of Tuesday.
- A total of 85,372 residents, or approximately 71% of the county’s vaccine-eligible population aged 5 and older, were fully vaccinated. Approximately 7% of the population aged 5 and older have been partially vaccinated as of this reporting period.
The California Department of Public Health has updated its guidance on isolation and quarantine for workplace settings aimed at allowing certain vaccinated people to stay working in specific situations if they have been exposed to the virus and don’t develop symptoms.
State health officials recently expanded booster eligibility to children aged 12 to 15 if it has been at least five months since they completed their primary vaccination series. Appointments can be made on the state’s updated vaccination portal My Turn.
Public Health continues to monitor the surging case counts that officials say suggest the highly transmissible Omicron variant is rapidly increasing in Humboldt County.
Health officials are continuing to say that hospitalizations, rather than positive case numbers, are the best indicator of how the county is being impacted in the most recent surge of cases. Vaccines and boosters provide an increased level of protection from Omicron, Delta and other variants.
Those individuals who are fully vaccinated or boosted typically develop milder symptoms, shorter illness duration and have fewer hospitalizations and less severe outcomes. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention rates of hospitalizations by vaccination status, unvaccinated adults are greater than 8 times more likely to be hospitalized than those adults who are fully vaccinated. Locally, that number is currently 17 times higher.
Public Health officials continue to stress that residents, especially those who are unvaccinated, continue to protect themselves and their families from all COVID-19 variants by following mask requirements in public settings, socially distancing and getting vaccinated or boosted when eligible to do so.
As always, Humboldt County’s vaccination and testing services are available free of charge. Although walk-ins are allowed at most regular Public Health clinics and many pharmacy vaccination sites, an increase in demand for boosters has caused delays at some locations. As a result, appointments are required for pediatric clinics and for clinics at Public Health’s main office. Appointments are strongly recommended for all other clinics and are the best way to ensure a shot is available during your visit. Appointments can be made at MyTurn.ca.gov.
Vaccines, including boosters, are available at local pharmacies. To check the availability of a specific vaccine, visit the vaccines.gov page, or text your ZIP code to 438829 to locate a nearby pharmacy offering vaccines.

🕯🌳Hmmmmmm Watson we might need to investigate. 🖖🖖
WHO says half of Europe and US will have covid in a few weeks. They say give up the losing fight, accept covid as part of the human existence, and get on with our lives.
mir, that is not what WHO says. Just yesterday they released a long statement that among other points says, “In the context of the circulation of Omicron SARS-CoV-2 Variant of Concern, the TAG-CO-VAC urges broader access globally to current COVID-19 vaccines for primary series and booster doses, in the hope that this also mitigates the emergence and impact of new VOCs.” That is not giving up…
They did however state something I think is important. “With near- and medium-term supply of the available vaccines, the need for equity in access to vaccines across countries to achieve global public health goals, programmatic considerations including vaccine demand, and evolution of the virus, a vaccination strategy based on repeated booster doses of the original vaccine composition is unlikely to be appropriate or sustainable.”
https://www.who.int/news/item/11-01-2022-interim-statement-on-covid-19-vaccines-in-the-context-of-the-circulation-of-the-omicron-sars-cov-2-variant-from-the-who-technical-advisory-group-on-covid-19-vaccine-composition.
So, since it’s not working anymore, give it to someone else to make it fair, before Omicron gets there?
Yes. So the jab can fail for them too. Now that the vax doesn’t work so good we are ready to share ..and aren’t we just so nice and fair?
Except, even at a reduced efficacy, having been vaccinated is better than no vaccination in terms of how sick or likely to die you are when you do get the seemingly inevitable infection.
So getting injected is selfish and not selfless like so many think. Injected folks are still vectors of transmission and mask do little to nothing to stop transmission.
Realistically, what is the exact difference, vaxxed or not, in how sick, or likely to die, you will be, if, “you do get the seemingly inevitable infection”, considering that most, most likely won’t even get the infection?
And why won’t you acknowledge that it provides absolutely zero benefit, ZERO, when you don’t get, “the seemingly inevitable infection”, and that most people may not.
And why don’t you address co-infections, like with RSV, that lead to the mis-portrayal of the severity of Covid19 if not even tested for, or identified?
CDC guidelines call for testing for Covid19 first, if a patient comes in presenting with respiratory symptoms, and then only to test for RSV, if the patient tests negative for Covid19, not the other way around, or both.
This may be leading to disease and death being misattributed to Covid19, when something like RSV, might be the more dangerous infection when they co-occur, especially with certain age groups.
At one time, recently, something like 25 of 45 children in Texas children’s hospital, in the ICU, I believe, also tested positive for RSV.
Many were infants, as well.
Address that, nooo, if you please.
“in the hope”
Was just watching a segment on CBS about opioid addiction and overdose deaths that are approaching 1 million over the last 12 months… (notice that 1 million dead in 12 months did not lead the show… that was reserved for the bare shelves and sharply rising inflation. No mention was made of less than a million dead in 2 years of COVID, with over half of those under the Brandon administration)
Anyhow, I digressed… the drug companies have a vaccine that will treat addiction!!!
What could possibly go wrong?!
I can hear it now! The liberals will be screaming, “Vaccine mandates for the homeless, downtrodden and addicted! When do we want them??? NOW!!!!”
Amirite???
I doubt they’d take them.
You could threaten to take their jobs if they refuse.
It’s for their own good.
It’s not for them — it’s for others.
Just like the Jews were vectors of disease in 1940s Germany, so removing them from society was accepted because it was for the benefit of others.
If Republicans are one day taken to re-education camps, democrats will be fine with it, because it’s for the benefit of others.
The economy!?
Inflation is a tax on all Americans, and it has gone up every month of Joe Biden’s presidency. The newest inflation numbers showed that prices in December leaped 7% from a year ago, the highest inflation rate since 1982.
They are eroding your rights and everything you own down to your currency and they’re doing it intentionally.
7% is the annual rate of inflation. Most economists would prefer it to be around 1-3%
And wage gains are 5% so Brandon wiped out 2% of our income and even more of our savings
Did you get a 5% raise?
5% is the average
Most economists are imbeciles (think Paul Krugman). Only in recent history did they start to parrot the LIE perpetuated by the Fed that somehow, losing 1-3% of your purchasing power annually, is good for you.
Listening to idiots is idiotic. Said another way: who’s more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows ( a maxim i recently used on RHBB and had my comment banished because of it?????? LOL)?
“It easier to fool someone than convince them that they’ve been fooled”
Ain’t it the truth?
Bidenflation is wrecking our personal finances
Inflation measured honestly, the way it was in the 70’s, is currently double digits. Those of us that understand goverment isn’t Santa Clause (non libs) have been warning for years. Blaming capitalism, followed by price controls, that don’t work, are next. Liberalism is a mental disorder.
I have left this video many times over the years
https://youtu.be/zPkTItOXuN0
Heaven forbid that conservatives keep trying to live in a world that no longer exists. Things change, people adapt or fade away. If liberalism is a disease, then conservatives who say such things are zombies- already dead but still spasming.
Hmm…so you’re saying that no one should ever fight for what they think is right? That we should all accept that, “things change?” That anyone who thinks we’re heading the wrong direction is already dead but still spasming?
But…wouldn’t that leave your life devoid of meaning? What would you do if everyone agreed with you and thought everything was just peachy-keen?
Talk about zombies.
🕯🌳Same could be said about agreeing with you. 🖖🖖
If everyone agreed with me I would be bored stiff.
The only entertainment I’d have would be questioning their motives.
Of course I never said that. You said it in order to condemn me because I didn’t say anything worthy of condemnation and you really, really want to express contempt. But don’t feel picked on because I point that out- lots of people do that. They argue with their inner stereotypes because it’s much harder to argue with what was really said. It is a sort of rhetorical schizophrenia quite common.
Oh, the irony. This: “If liberalism is a disease, then conservatives who say such things are zombies- already dead but still spasming,” followed by this: “You said it in order to condemn me because I didn’t say anything worthy of condemnation and you really, really want to express contempt.”
But who am I to say anything? I’m over here still spasming.
Knock it off, both of you. I’m too busy for this. Either stick to ideas or get banned.
Bidenflation has Wholesale prices are up 9.7%, the most recorded ever, so expect bigger consumer price increases in coming months
Hey… I’ve been told democrats care about me and the health and safety of society???
You must have not been watching closely, here’s the actual quote “A study released Thursday by the National Center for Health Statistics, a division of the CDC, found that 932,364 people died in the U.S. from fatal overdoses from 1999 through 2020.”
1 million in 21 years, not 1 million per year
🕯🌳He exaggerates.🖖🖖
Awfully presumptuous of you to state what gender I am in todays day and age, isn’t it, Willie???
Cornpoppy?
Mebbe…
you have a gender? I thought we got rid of those?
Probably right that I wasn’t watching a liberal hack news source like CBS closely. However, COVID news was relegated to being behind Brandon’s bare shelves and the new vaccines to treat addiction. Got any further observations, Big Man?
So why were you watching?
You got called out and now deflect.
Because it was on after the local news and I was cooking dinner and didn’t take the time to change the channel. I didn’t deflect, I agreed that I probably wasn’t watching closely. Don’t you have some forms to fill out for free government shit, instead of questioning what someone does during a news segment?
🕯🌳There you go deflecting again poppy.🖖🖖
You say deflect, I say bong rip.
Wrong again. I’ve never filled out forms for any “free government “ s…
Deflecting some more?
What do you know about free government s…?
You don’t have to fill out forms to get “free government s…” it now just arrives. I got my third stimulus check in the mail despite having zero loss of income.
But then, filing a tax return these days can do the trick.
Do you not keep up with alternative opinions to yours? Do you only read information that confirms your bias?
Facts. Not for the commentators who want to get in a shot at “Brandon”.
Too funny that anyone thought 1 million people died from overdoses in one year.
49% of Americans say Biden is appropriately called the “Divider-in- Chief”
How come you never cite your sources for your “data”?
100,000 in 2020
1,000,000 in 21 years.
Watch it again. The 1 million figure was for the last 10 years
Big Man said 21 years. I said I wasn’t giving the show 100% of my attention and agreed I might have missed the time/figure.
Either you or Big Man is lying.
Hark, ye without faith: Second booster soon available. Like in a week perhaps.
It’s all good mlr, 7 percent of the 5 and older been partially vaxxed, in otherwords,93 percent of that crowd think it’s not necessary. Finally there is hope.
Investigate what?
Good one. The Fauci lies are too obvious for even liberal media to ignore anymore
The CDC lost what credibility they had when they took on social and political work accoding to politician’s demands well over 20 years ago. Or should have if anyone had bothered to notice. If you can dig back in your memory a couple of years, they failed to create a working covid test, refused to allow private companies to take up the slack and sent out the one that didn’t work anyway. And then dismissed the failure as “it could happen to anyone” rather than fix the deficiency.
However that does not mean what anti vaxxers say it does. They lie even more. Much more.
It’s nice to see you slowly acknowledging the failure of our public health agency to earn the respect that you demand we give them. It’s a shame you can’t leave your straw man behind as well so we can actually address the problem.
Seems to me that’s exactly what the anti-vaxxers are saying. Perhaps you mis-spoke?
Translation: I FINALLY understand that the CDC is full of shit and “anti vaxxers” were right all along, but rather than be embarrassed and admit that, I will call them liars to convince myself that I’m not actually agreeing with them…….even though I am agreeing with them.
In just the past 24 hours:
Jake Tapper admitted Rona hospitalizations are inflated.
CDC admitted 75% of Rona-deaths are of people with 4 or more comorbidities.
Big Pharma exec admitted vaccines have been ineffective at stopping the spread.

Yup.. Read the Daily Mail- that insightful journal of integrity. Their readership has not fallen.
For breaking news before it happens, read the Babylon Bee. Their satire has turned out to be truth uncomfortably often.
Take your pick if you don’t like the far left rag from England:
https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=CNN+viewership+falls&atb=v278-1&ia=web
Nope, heard exactly what she stated. 75% of Covid deaths are due to people with 3 or more comorbitities. Nice try but I go with the horses mouth, not her trainers {cnn, abc, nbc, cbs, etc) bunghole.
Nope.
Even if that is true, that leaves a quarter without. And that was a cherry picked anti vaxxerism. 75% of VACCINATED covid deaths have fourcomorbidities. The non vaccinated are much more successful at dying without any at all.
It’s never enough to just spin the truth, so we might as well start wringing it again.
So what’s the percentage of unvaccinated hospitalizations that had 4 or more comorbidities, nooo?
You know, right off the top of your head…
And how many of both groups had 3, 2, or 1?
A quarter without…4 comorbidities. Not, as your deceitful wording seems intended to imply, without any comorbidities.
That comment sounds like you pulled it from exactly where it smells like you pulled it.
Really?! CNN is not a reliable news source! That’s like a conservative citing Breitbart!!!
Lol!!!!
Uh huh……..

CNN Fact Check? Isn’t their viewership down like 90% since last year? I wonder why 🤔
https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-997037269628
Cdc director was explaining the effectiveness of vaccines. That 75% of people who died from covid even though they had received vaccination also had at least 4 or more comorbidities.
So your telling me that if I’m on my last leg , the miracle drug won’t save me and any little flu will take me out. I thought covid was killing young healthy people? Thanks for clearing that up fog dog.
Vaccine cult still undeterred.

There are dozens, probably hundreds of scientific journals on youtube. This may be news to you, just not to anyone else.
https://youtu.be/HEDuybgrJXQ
I hear they are gonna start putting sick people, positive cases in the old folks homes again. So that should get the numbers back up there where they want them.
Well “people are saying”.
Fauci and his cabal have abused their claim to be scientists and severely damaged America’s faith in what they say
Don’t question the science!
Anti vaxxers never had faith in science to lose.
You know the CDC has lost all credibility, when a small independent So. Hum. news website, will defer to HCDPH”s errant version of the percentage of their eligible population that are full vaxxed.
(HCDPH says it’s 69.9%, the CDC clearly states it’s 66.4%).
(The CDC also shows Humboldt’s previously eligible group, the 12 and up, as being 69.9% fully vaxxed). Hmm…
HCDPH just changed the 12 to a 5 apparently, and must have made no other adjustment for the additional 10,000.
Do you think that HCDPH, might have neglected to properly adjust, from the eligible 12 and up group, to the newly eligible 5 and up group,when the 5 to 11 group became eligible 10 weeks ago?
(Yes, that is a rhetorical question… I watched it happen, or rather, not happen).
And it still hasn’t.
Which agency, do you think that the small, independent, So. Hum. news website should defer to, if there is a discrepancy?
The CDC, or HCDPH?
(Another rhetorical question.)
🤔🧐 The CDC and I, apparently, have something in common.
Kym Kemp doesn’t believe either one of us… 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Cue Hoffman stomping, and yelling, “I am science!”.
Everyone made their choice – Vax or don’t – now’s time to live with the consequences. Enough government imposed restrictions on our lives, let freedom reign! Return to normal! Brandon and his leftist control freaks can f-off! This movement is growing rapidly, even CNN coming on board, so Brandon better adjust his strategy or risk falling even lower than his miserable 33% approval. He’s dragging down the entire Dem slate in the midterms.
Even Hillary can smell Joe’s blood – she’s dusting off the 2016 playbook egging for a rematch with Trump. The most unlikable politician in history thinks even she’s better than crazy old Joe.
🕯🌳And who will run against them?🖖🖖
What’s it matter? You have no say in who it is, crack me up. Essentially you have zero say, but keep voting.
Cornpop?
🤔🧐More like “cornpoop” will be running against Biden.😁
I’d still vote for President Biden over Hillary, any day.
The further he drags them down the better and I have no doubt his idiocy will continue
Wake me up in another 2 years when this is all over.
Sorry Janice 3 years.

Maybe…
Be ole camel by end of next year , got to give a woman the oval office for a short stint just to say they did.
At this rate were on track to reach endemic status this summer.
Smh. Slow and enjoy, yer trump mag, hand, in a cabin, out there, moving rapidly.
Is that a, “Sometimes A Great Notion,” reference?
Right. I spent my life not trusting big pharma or politicians and I thought most people had that sense. Evidently 62% ish (vaccine nazis) will believe the evils and try and shame others. Remember, you were not forced to be jabbed. Good luck.
Living in Humboldt used to be for those who questioned authority and said f*ck the man. Not so much anymore.
Have you looked at the global charts. Freedom reigns in the US. We far out pace countries with 5 times our population. FREEEEEEEEDDDDOOOONMMM!
Who’s Brandon?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0Y-3Fz5w8zs
Lol!!!
“Bare shelves, Brandon!”
“Mask up, Brandon!”
“Gas is up, Brandon!”
“Inflation King, Brandon!”
Byrd’s friend, Brandon!”
Yes, Joe Manchin!”
Lets go Brandon!
How original. Let’s hear the usual liberalism is a mental disorder 😆
Well… you have to believe in liberty to be a liberal.
Liberalism is a mental disorder!
Brandons Inflation numbers:
Gasoline up 56%
Heating oil up 42%
Used cars: 37.3%
Car rental: 36%
Natural gas up 31%
Hotels: 27.6%
Beef: 18.6%
Pork: 15.1%
Furniture: 13.8%
New cars: 12%
Chicken 10.4%
Fresh fish: 10.2%
Oranges: 9.9%
Jewelry: 8.8%
Dresses: 8%
So much for Brando being the “party of the poor and middle class”, huh?
Street drugs like crack and weed are down so druggie liberals are happy about that.
Those numbers are because of evil capitalism. We just need another goverment agency, perhaps the ministry of inflation. That’ll fix the problem. Price controls anyone? Mmmmmm socialism.
🤔🧐Maybe it’s Gopher?
Does anyone know who Gopher is?😁
I’m upvoting use of the correct ‘reign’.
CDC website
https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#county-view?list_select_county=06023
Note: a difference in % partially vaccinated against dashboard %
Kym Kemp, Dr. Hoffman, County of Humboldt, Gentle Readers, esp. ☕,
Please tap read more,
beetlejuice,
You are the man!
(Regardless of gender).
Thank you so much!
You just showed CDC proof, from today, 1/12/2022, of what I have been trying to say for over two months, that the county has been wrong in it’s statistics, starting when the approximately 10,000 5 to 11 year olds became eligible, which was about November 3rd, 2021.
They never added them to the subsequent equations…
From your CDC information;
5+, fully vaxxed = 66.4%*,
12+, fully vaxxed = 69.9%*,
18+, fully vaxxed = 70.7%.
Also shown;
5+, partially vaxxed = 75.3%,
12+, partially vaxxed = 78.8%,
18+, partially vaxxed = 79.6%.
Hoffman stated, @ 105:20 in the Supervisors Meeting video, (after correcting for a transcription error), that about 76% of
[the eligible] population,
(5+), have received one dose.
And that, as you can see in the CDC information, is correct…
However, he also said, (after correcting for another transcription error), that “we are just shy of 70% of [the eligible] population, (5+), that are fully vaccinated”.
And that, as you can now plainly see, is a mistake.
Just shy of 70%, (69.9%*), fully vaccinated, is clearly for the 12+ population, and not for the 5+, population, which are at only 66.4%*, fully vaccinated.
As you can now plainly see, straight from the CDC.
Just like I have been trying to say.
The same mistake the county has been making for over two months.
Like I’ve been saying for over two months, since November 10, 2021, and has been falling on deaf ears, including the County’s.
(* The proof. )
Can we get this corrected, please?
Sincerely,
Guest.
Another interesting statistic from CDC website. They list 20.3% of the population of Humboldt County living in poverty.
Thank you
For mentioning the forgotten.
And it has been foolish everyone of the hundred times you repeated it. Which accounts for the deafness you feel.
Foolish?
Nooo, Its been the truth all along.
It’s just that no one will admit it.
Or correct it.
Look at the CDC chart for Humboldt, at the 5 and up, and at the 12 and up, fully vaccinated percentages of the respective eligible populations, nooo.
And then tell me, which group’s percentage coincides with HCDPH’s errant, “just shy of 70% eligible population, fully vaccinated”, statement?
The 12 and up, or the 5 and up?
Do you see the mistake that HCDPH has been making for 10 weeks?
And then tell me what has been so foolish for so long?
Open your eyes, and admit it, nooo, it’s plain to see.
It doesn’t get any more obvious than that…
Even if you refuse to see it.
This has been getting swept under the rug for ten weeks.
That rug must be getting pretty lumpy and bumpy, by now…
Pretty obvious.
The deafness of others that I am up against, is one thing, dealing with the blindness of others, in combination, is quite another.
👍 👍 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
The CDC takes its counts from data reported by the county. It just posts later. It’s a time lag, not a discrepancy.
Riiight, Nooo!
You’ve outdone yourself this time…
“It’s a time lag, not a discrepancy”…
🤔🧐Yep,that makes perfect sense…
Due to a “time lag”, by the time the CDC gets the “data reported from the county”, for the 5 and up percentage of population that is fully vaccinated, the data has aged, and therefore becomes the percentage, fully vaccinated, of the 12 and up population!
Perfectly logical…🤷♂️ 🤦♂️ 🤪😜🤡
⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Congressman Warren Davidson (R) today did that old stupid thing rightwingers are prone to: comparing vax mandates to what the Jewish people suffered under the Nazis.
Will folks like him ever learn?
Leaders of the Auschwitz Memorial responded:
“Exploiting of the tragedy of all people who between 1933-45 suffered, were humiliated, tortured & murdered by the totalitarian regime of Nazi Germany in a debate about vaccines & covid limitations in the time of global pandemic is a sad symptom of moral and intellectual decay.”
It’s people who refuse to understand the psychopathy of a certain breed or class of people, who try to convince you that there’s nothing to worry about, when it’s pretty fucking clear that there are more questions than answers.
Here’s a kicker.
Can you please find me a survivor of the holocaust that will back up your beliefs?
I doubt it. Id rather you be happy and jabbed and leave the rest of us alone, instead of preaching like a false prophet, supporting scientism, instead of the scientists who are being threatened for speaking out.
Now what were you really trying to say?
” Id rather you be happy and jabbed and leave the rest of us alone,”
Yup, nuff said. It’ll never happen tho.
Just seeing this … Ms/Mr Wreck.
WTF kinda question is “Can you please find me a survivor of the holocaust that will back up your beliefs?”?
I quoted a reputable source, y’know – those who know well what actual Nazi’s did.
And did you lift the following from , where, exactly?
“It’s people who refuse to understand the psychopathy of a certain breed or class of people, who try to convince you that there’s nothing to worry about, when it’s pretty fucking clear that there are more questions than answers.”
Really, where’d you get it from?
You don’t see it because you would have been the person who allowed your neighbors to be taken away on a train without questioning it. The average German had no idea what was going on in the camps, because they never asked.
I’m talking Nazi leadership and active minions. I’d guess the “average German”, during Hitlers rise and reign, was eventually nationalistic (listening to their, ahem, leader), ignorant, scared (by Hitler, sound familiar, cough, carnage, cough) and/or simply duped by him.
Ps- my Father, USA, was in the war, occupied France and on into Germany.
How many people are you here, on RHBB?
Speechless
113 positive, out of 354 tests…
31.92% positivity rate…
62.80% fully vaccinated.
6.50% partially vaccinated.
For a grand total of…
69.30% with one or more doses…
I don’t know who came up with 76%, but that was a mistake, and it looks like it may have been from adding the partially vaccinated twice to the fully vaccinated.
Making that mistake would add up to 75.80%, and someone, it’s not clear who, said nearly 76% in the article about Hoffman’s resignation.
Clearly a mistake, but maybe not his…
CDC is saying 71.3% partially vaccinated/total population.
75.3% partially vaccinated 5 & up. Any idea where they are getting their numbers?
And the 66.4% for 5 & up fully vaccinated?
Guest never mind.
No problem, beetlejuice.
I see what you are saying.
I think the CDC numbers are fairly correct.
But, 71.3% doesn’t jibe with the county number…
Could the county partially vaxxed 6.5% be being applied to only the eligible? Or maybe also only to the 12 and up? Or even the 18anf up? The 6.5% would increase a little, but not enough to reach 71.4, when added to 62.8% fully vaccinated. It would have to be 8.6%. No telling.
It’s the County that has been improperly using the 12 and up fully vaccinated percentage in place of the 5 and up fully vaccinated percentage, in error, for over two months.
As you can see on the chart from the CDC that you provided, the 12 and up, fully vaccinated percentage is the one that is 69.9%.
Which is, as Hoffman stated, (“just shy of 70%”),
But that is not the 5 and up, (eligible), which are, as you can also see, only 66.4% fully vaccinated, as the CDC,
(and I), have claimed.
The 66.4%, that the 5 and up represent, is well short, (4.6% short), of 70%.
Thanks again for the CDC chart.
From the same place they get covid deaths lol. 50 percent haven’t gotten their 3rd booster, so now currently 70 percent of the nation is unvaxxxed, crack me up.
We’ve had a paucity of information on how prevalent Omicron is in Humboldt, but a Times-Standard headline states that it is now the dominant strain. That’s good news.
Yes, better to have a strain we barely notice than a strain we hardly notice.
Don’t forget to get your booster and continue to wear your mask!
Better to have a strain that’s like a bad cold than one that can kill.
How many people getting paid to major in the minors?
Just remember Covid was never bad enough to shut down the southern border.
hmmmm
There is that…
And Dr. Hoffman worked for the “Clinica de la Raza” before coming to Humboldt.
If a name like that ain’t racist, I don’t know what is.
“The mission of La Clínica de La Raza is to improve the quality of life of the diverse communities we serve by providing culturally appropriate, high-quality, and accessible health care for all.”
For all of which Raza???
.
All but the evil white opressors
This one? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Raza_Nation
Culturally appropriate healthcare?
It’s done on a point system.
Anyone who is not a white male heterosexual get two points!
The clinic of the race.
The increasing diversity of the nation brings opportunities and challenges for health care providers, health care systems, and policy makers to create and deliver culturally competent services. Cultural competence is defined as the ability of providers and organizations to effectively deliver health care services that meet the social, cultural, and linguistic needs of patients.(1) A culturally competent health care system can help improve health outcomes and quality of care, and can contribute to the elimination of racial and ethnic health disparities

People down vote the truth.
There can only be one reason.
Hey liberals!! Can you tell me if it is still widely accept in your circles that Those people that believe the the virus originated in a lab are conspiracy nut jobs and racist?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Just trying to figure out where we are in the timeline.
Hey Trumpers! Can you tell if it is still widely accepted in your circles that the election was stolen from Trump (that Trump won)?
Just trying to figure out how many the con man holds hostage.
Yes!
🕯🌳Stolen from a loser. How funny is that?🖖🖖
Yes we still believe that the election was stolen. It seems like there’s a two year delta for the truth to be realized by the normies on these big lies. You know like Russia Russia Russia, lab leak theory etc.
So I think in another year we’ll all agree on what happened in the election. My theory is the establishment will flip over the card table before then.
🕯🌳17 Federal Judges disagree with you and most of them were appointed by Trump. 🖖🖖
No Willie it was 17 intelligence agencies, and that was Russia Russia Russia.
“Yes we still believe that the election was stolen”
Duly noted. And as we know lots of other opinions on issues follow suite, there-in lies the grander virus threatening Liberty.
LOL.Zackly!
This county is hilarious. Has Facebook become too boring for these commenters or did some of y’all get banned? Why does local health news reporting even need a comment section, Kym? I can see why comments are good for local history posts, or posts that as for input—but some reports truly do not need an echo chamber (nor a battleground).
Yet…
Here you are!
Welcome!

Oh man beat me to it.
Isn’t Facebook for teenage girls? Never had a account. Seen it once.
Speaking of comments. What happened to Gray Fox? She always got firsties. Just disappeared. Hope she’s ok.
I think grey fox is maybe on vacay for a month or so, with TRB, nooo, and maybe, Yeah, Sure?
But I’m not sure. Probably on some island somewhere warm.
Must be nice.
Or it’s tax season
They dang sure are NOT on moderation.

Ya. Copy that
So why are you commenting here?
They won’t let us gather in person.
Trump hangs up on NPR reporter like a boss.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyCBPEM-pHw&t=50s
Well he did say thank you very much before he hung up, so I see nothing wrong. Also, GEOTUS was so coherent, so on topic, so well spoken and informed, it’s a striking difference from potato head. I miss his leadership. I miss mean tweets. Sigh.
His interview was scheduled for 15 minutes. But “Trump hangs up like a boss” after 9 minutes, TKOing himself.
😂
Why? Busted once again (and again, and again) for lying. But y’all just keep eating it up [edit]
Don’t attack the other commenters.
The % of voters who think the election was stolen, that Trump won, is absurdly high, even in the face of being wholly disproven. Hence Trump is not “well informed” but doubling down on The Big Lie. Continued belief in that, by so many, is an indication of moral
and intellectual decay. I mean, the next thing we know they’ll repeat that Health Dept and CDC directives, and businesses requiring vaccination of employees, is akin to Nazi practices. Oh, wait …
If one acknowledges missing Trumps lies, including his “mean tweets”, what’s next, the assaulting the Capitol, hunting men and women of the Congress? Oh, wait …
Hillary Clinton still says Trump stole the 2016 election from her. And on much slimmer grounds.
This is exactly what I’m talking about. The twists, missing factual info, the squirming.
Here’s verbatim from
Clinton, November 9th, following the election:
“Last night, I congratulated Donald Trump and offered to work with him on behalf of our country“
But when Biden wins? No such thing. The opposite, actually and live in color. Trump and his losers go full-on carnage, trying to disrupt the Congress, hunting lawmakers.
What she said in a speech but what actually happened was that she kept on saying it was stolen. Still does. And what did the Democrats do? Within 6 months started impeachment articles in Congress over Comey’s firing in now totally discredited Steele /Russian election interference claims. And kept at it until they squeezed something out of it. This is what happens when people start believing their own propaganda.
I’m sorry but your claim of Democrat statesmanship doesn’t hold water at all. Trump is no bastion of integrity but he learned how the big boys do it to do it from the Dempcrats.
“she kept on saying it was stolen”
False equivalency’s will get ya nowhere.
She conceded the election. Did not contest it.
She not plan and direct thousands to disrupt the outcome. Only one Prez in modern times has done such.
Yes, Trump used words. Surprisingly protected by the Constitution. But took no actual steps other than court cases and speeches. He didn’t even do the petty sabotage that Bill Clinton’s staff did when he left the white house.
Clinton used the Congress, the press and falsified documents her campaign had created to push to impeach. Who is the worse villain? Trump can’t restrain his mouth but the Clinton’s- they knew how to do dirt so it sticks.
Trump “took no actual steps other than court cases and speeches”
Pretty sure we’ll find he had direct knowledge of, and likely approved of (if not contributed to) “steps” taken to disrupt the election outcome. Even a casual review of available, reputable sources indicate as much.
Stay tuned, the weeks and months ahead.
How’s that Russia investigation going?
🕯🌳How’s that looking for Hunters computer coming along?🖖🖖
Hunter’s laptop is well documented, and well hidden by censors.
His wife just wrote a book, things take time to be revealed.
Especially when so many will be brought down by the revealing.
Hunter’s computer was found. Haven’t you been keeping up? He was brokering deals with 10% held back for The Big Guy Joe B
Found both of them👍
Deflection.
Do you believe the election was stolen from Trump?
You do realize there are problems with verified ballot stuffing and poll watchers being blocked from overseeing the process. We’ve got so many people who have spoken out against these occurances.
If Bidens wasn’t waging a war on moms and dad’s who want to protect their kids, maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to ignore Washington DC, but the FBI and the DoJ need to be gutted or disbanded. They have a long history of creating problems to blame the American people for.
We néed accountability, or you can pay 2x the taxes, and we can say we are not going to pay for this kind of abuse.
[edit]
“You do realize there are problems with verified ballot stuffing and poll watchers being blocked from overseeing the process”
So nominal, if even, to be utterly inconsequential to election outcome. Hence, conspiracy minded blah-blah.
“We’ve got so many people who have spoken out against these occurances.”
“We’ve … so many people”? How many, what scale, Trump lie lovers?
Kym, is there’s reason why you deleted my comment challenging the “covid” death of the person 80+? I can provide you more details if you think I’m lying…..
You mean this comment? https://kymkemp.com/2022/01/11/1-death-2-new-hospitalizations-223-new-cases-reported/#comment-1471819
I never deleted it.
Coronavirus loses most of its ability to infect shortly after being exhaled and is less likely to be contagious at longer distances, a study from the University of Bristol’s Aerosol Research Centre showed.
Researchers found that the virus loses 90% of its contagion capacity 20 minutes after becoming airborne and that most of that loss happens in the first five minutes of it reaching the air, according to the study, that simulates how the virus behaves after exhaling. This shows that masks and distancing are an effective deterrent.
🕯🌳BRAVO. 🖖🖖
“BRAVO,” for a study which simulates behavior? Still waiting for those studies on actual behavior.
So you’re saying that a virus which is barely contagious becomes less contagious over time and distance?
Who’da thunk.
Considering that, “exposure,” requires at least 15 min. of, “close contact,” with an infected person, how does that affect your most-of-90%-drop-in-the-first-five-minutes factoid?
Just trying to figure out your point, and how you thought you were proving it.
SUPREME COURT STRIKES DOWN OSHA VACCINE MANDATE…
Split Decision
Roberts voted with 6-3 majority on OSHA rule and voted with 5-4 majority on healthcare rule.
Kavanaugh voted with 5-4 majority on healthcare rule.
Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch and Barrett voted no on both rules.
Next up, to get shut down, hopefully, is Newsom’s executive order… Hopefully.
Those affected by that order have only until February to comply, or 7 months after their most recent primary series dose, whichever comes last… I believe, it’s a little hard to parse.
I wouldn’t be even due for my booster by February 1st, for example, (more like April or May), and I don’t think anyone could hold my job over my head if I didn’t get one by February 1.
I think Gavin wants to run for president, so if the writing on the wall goes against him. He just might renege. Of course, he first needs his speechwriter to give him a good cause that the Dems would accept.
Hopefully quickly!
Unfortunately, by then, many people that were not comfortable getting vaccinated or boosted, may have been forced into a corner and so they got it anyway, against their will.
I think that’s a problem., Especially with a booster, that won’t probably make that big of a difference over two doses, as far as severity or death, and not maybe even that much in terms of preventing infection for long…
It is a problem, I’m trying to be optimistic, Gavin also has to get re elected as Gov. again, and I think many more people are pissed than when the recall happened.
And many of them are in your position.
I’m hoping anyway.
He may have to choose between voters or donners, teachers unions etc..

Biden: ‘I don’t know whether we can get this done’
President Biden in a moment of brutal honesty on Thursday admitted that his push to enact changes to voting laws and the Senate’s filibuster rule may be doomed.
“The honest-to-God answer is I don’t know whether we can get this done,” Biden admitted after leaving a more-than-hourlong meeting with Senate Democrats to persuade them to change the Senate’s rules.’
”Yes, Sinema!”
Just to clarify, the vaccine mandate for healthcare workers at places that receive federal money (virtually all hospitals) was upheld.
The OSHA mandate for vaccines or testing at businesses >100 employees was overturned. However, companies can still mandate their employees be vaccinated, it’s just not enforced through OSHA now.
Yet, health workers testing positive are being forced to work.
I think there’s another case to be heard also, and possibly more to come.
What criteria public health uses to screen is not real life either. It’s just a notch on the bell curve. And certainly this latest iteration of covid is significantly infectious.
Such a study is relevant to assessing risk of spread and what can be done to limit it.
Here is a link to an article on the study- https://www.firstpost.com/health/why-a-group-of-scientists-believe-that-covid-19-may-not-be-as-infectious-once-its-been-20-minutes-in-the-air-10281981.html
🕯🌳The invasion of this thread is complete.🖖🖖
Mm, yes. But they’ll just keep marching, en masse, toward the figurative (if not liberal) doors of Health Depts, Gov institutions, etc, muttering “communist, Nazi, poison peddler” underneath loud chants and slogans of Freedom, Liberty, Trump.
Awfully close to Doublethink:
“the acceptance of or mental capacity to accept contrary opinions or beliefs at the same time, especially as a result of political indoctrination.”
George Orwell, he knew.
Well, at least you got the freedom and liberty part right.
Maybe you can explain what you have against freedom and liberty.
One of the best ways to deceive people is to mix a little truth in with a pack of lies.
That’s what I say about the best anti vaxxers offer. At the worst, it has no bearing on reality at all.
Not my fault, you’re on the wrong side of reality.
And I’m not an anti-vaxxer, I’m a free choicer.
Or maybe to mix a tiny bit of agreement with a whole lot of disagreement.
🤔🧐 Just a pinch of yes, to go with a huge pile of nooo… 😁
LOL Just using Nooo as an avatar is disagreeable, before saying anything. Gives me visions of Nancy Regans, Just say Nooo
Only in Nooo’s case it’s Just say yes, No??
Yep.
“Maybe you can explain what you have against freedom and liberty.”
Troll-like baiting based on twisted assumption.
Let’s look at what Liberty and freedom is not. It’s not a President scheming and manipulating his most easily manipulated (including hired?) base-members to attack the Capitol, to undermine a valid election outcome in the name of Liberty and freedom. (All those flags waving … then
lowered into being spears).
True Liberty and Freedom is NOT active sedition. And it’s NOT sacrificing your little-people then denying and ducking as they (justifiably) suffer Law & Order, law and order managing American Carnage (actively, brought on by Trump himself).
The truth is coming for those who swallowed his lies. Today it’s an Oath Keepers leader. Upcoming, just watch.
You mean that some have chosen to return to the loco hive mind?

Am I hearing that I’m not the only one to get the boot from Hankie’s House? I used to think it was impossible to be uninvited there, until I stopped by to visit one day and found the doors locked against me.
They said I could stand outside the window and look in, but I was unwelcome to join the conversation. Needless to say, I haven’t been back.
