    My wife and I both had it a few weeks back, while our kids kept on testing negative.

    Tell that to the co-worker of mine who died the other week because of COVID.

    Maybe those Delta flight attendants should've been a little less giddy upon the mask mandate being struck down.

    I'm not sure how you get there from that good doctor's interpretation, but I must say that that good doctor's interpretation is ... questionable.

    It doesn't matter how anyone interprets it. We've decided as a country that we don't care that much about this anymore.

    100 flights ... Delta flies 5,000+ a day

    That's still 5 percent of its flights, and airlines aren't sending out half-empty planes anymore.

    True but it's not really accurate when they include weather-related cancelations.

    That's 2% of its flights ... at most. And it's for a month.

    Delta's taking a smidge of its flight crew capacity and setting it aside to ameliorate imbalances that may occur. Quibble with the why and wherefore all you want ... but in my humble opinion (which is, of course, gospel ... right @Brian J Walter ?), this is hardly analogous to one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

    I don't think that. At all. Just saying, most people have given up on caring about it.
