Will gladly trade Covid bucks for vaccine.  
That should really be an option.  I get it that some people are still out of work, or not quite making it, but people going skiing on the weekends are probably not one of those people.  

I'd trade it for the vaccine in a heartbeat. Better yet I'd trade my stimulus to get my parents and 90 year old grandmother (who looks and acts like she's 60) the vaccine first.

I always felt like healthcare workers should get it second wave. You know, just in case. Let the politicians go first. We don’t really NEED them.

[Schif]

Politicians walk a fine line with getting the vaccines. For some reason people look to them for what to do with medical decisions instead of, you know, healthcare professionals, so it's a double edged sword. Turn down the vaccine and say that they should go to healthcare workers first and risk looking like you're avoiding a vaccine and sowing doubt or take it right away when you know you don't really need it over other more deserving people. 

The theater of national politics really gets in the way of actual usefulness in most cases.

Same deal with my wife but a week different.  She got the questionnaire last week and didn't qualify, but a bunch of other people who shouldn't have qualified fudged answers and got the vaccine last week.  My wife was pissed, but all is well since she will get it only a week later.  

Evidently they changed the scheduling process now and dropped the questionnaire.
Wife gonna get the shot next week.

They’ll be allowed to close Razors and set gates now.

Seeing restaurants and bars lose their busiest and most profitable time of the year is also depressing to me.

I didn't realize until this morning that you can't get your 10% season pass discount if you buy lift tickets for someone else in advance online.  This seems like something they should fix.

The indoor seating area at Wegmans is open again and filled with olds.

The testing site at the Lehigh valley iron pigs stadium already hit their limit for the day at like 1pm.  I believe they’re doing about 400 tests daily. I think that one is free. There’s another testing site in the Trivit parking lot doing tests for $89 it’s a new start up. You know what they say, more tests more cases lol.  Wolf is already toying with the idea of closing bars and restaurants from the super bowl until Valentine’s Day.
