The image above is not the one I meant to show but it pops up automatically with the url. Click on the link below. Scroll down. It will show Vermont is now worst in the nation for covid per Mayo Clinic:
The airport has been jampacked for several months, everyone is back to traveling again. Hell more people traveled over the Labor Day weekend then traveled in 2019.
Don’t blame the leaf peepers, no one here wears masks anymore, it’s like Covid doesn’t exist.
🤔
I'm triple vaxxed and have made peace with my god. If I die I die.
You’ve also apparently made peace with taking other people down with you

should've got the vax
What about people who can’t get the vaccine, or are so immunocompromised that even if they’re vaccinated getting COVID could kill them?
Bummer. This is the world we live in and people need to accept it. It's just a new Flu. It's not going anywhere.
Enjoy hell lmao
Can't be real if I don't believe in it. If you're still scared of Covid, after all this time. I feel bad for you. You should get your life together.
I’m sure the devil will be very sympathetic to that arg
I'm sure he will.
I mean- it kind of is? Like cases are down and most ppl are vaxxed.
Yeah ok sure but my comment is in response to OP blaming other states for Covid spikes in Vermont as if Vermonters are perfect and unable to spread Covid to one another.
Everybody in vt blames “flatlanders” for everything. Why are you surprised by this
I’m sorry you misunderstood, but did I say I was surprised? Nope, I didn’t say that.
Cases aren't down, the current strain is extremely contagious, but it's much more mild. That said, I am back to masking and being careful because I'm pregnant, and therefore more susceptible to getting sick. And COVID can cause increase the risk of stillbirth or preterm labor ☹️
Stop just stop please we're living with covid indefinitely... So just quit it.
Take my free award. People need to move on.
As long as a more deadly variant doesn't emerge, I think society is content to live with Covid with the remedies we have the same way we live with Influenza
Yea the whole "irradication" mentality needs to stop.
*eradication
No they said "irradication".
Cool username
Business in the front. Fungi in the back.
How is this data even being collected anymore? I have a hard time assigning any real meaning to any covid data at this point when there’s essentially zero tracing or individualized data collection going on. As I’ve said before, when I got it in the spring the department of health had zero interest in it so I get that they might be doing some representative sampling of waste water and such but seriously knock it off trying to make strict and specific conclusions from such extrapolations.
What a pain in the ass
Are you quoting the New Yorkers when they see a bus from Vermont pull up in Times Square?
Lol probably. I was actually calling COVID a pain in the ass, but you are probably right.
Real New Yorkers are nowhere near Times Square. 😆
Stop talking about COVID. It’s never going away. People need to live and enjoy their lives and not stay in a bubble
Edit: Sorry my original post was a bit sarcastic. Here's the reality: The disease is here. Its been here for years now. If you closed the state borders tomorrow it would still be here in 10 years.
And money.
I wonder if the Northeast and Alaska are just better at reporting positive tests. It seems terribly fishy that the rest of the country has such low numbers.

Everyone else has moved on. Rightfully so. No more LARPing.
Agreed completely, I keep telling my dead relatives to stop faking it! "Like, okay grandma, I get it, you died of covid complications and you're a corpse, you can get up now!"
Sorry to hear about her. Statistically she likely passed at the start of covid before we knew how to treat it and before it evolved to be less deadly. There is also a strong chance other sicknesses could have done it if covid didn’t. We need to move on with life. Most people have. I feel terrible for the people who still live in fear. Everybody dies but not everybody lives.
😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing this, it's amazing you can see from the timeline that it definitely corresponds to leaf peeping season as you said
Oh is it 2020 again? With vaccines and Covid becoming less threatening its irrelevant
It's not less threatening. It's a neurological and vascular disease that can continue to damage someone, unnoticeable until they have a stroke, or dementia, or very bad cases of other infections.

Every virus has that same potential. Go live in a bubble and leave normal people alone please.
What? Never heard any of that
It’s well known that even a mild case can cause heart, long, circulatory and even brain damage although these injuries are generally suffered by the unvaccinated.

Strange, VT has an extremely high Vax rate... Its almost as if the vaccine wasn't a vaccine at all, just a therapeutic.
Seriously folks, the current strain is weaker than the flu. We need to stop with the dramatization of it. We've lived and learned. If your srill truly worried, just make smart decisions for yourself. Don't force anything on others. We tried that, doesn't work.

The general gist I get from neighbors, coworkers, folks I know around town, etc is that Vermonters have been travelling more this summer and fall as well, probably in line with the rest of the US.
Weekends in NYC, busloads down to Foxborough for a game, flying down to the coast somewhere warmer, the casino in CT, Jersey Shore, Vegas, Nashville, whatever.
More movement, more potential for anything to spread.
It's like people forget that tourism goes both ways. Anyone who has pics of their own trips on social media isn't allowed to complain about leaf peepers or skiers or any other visitors to me.
