about 95% of the Active-duty Air Force and Space Force members are vaccinated. It is IMPERATIVE that the remaining 5% get their COVID-19 vaccination shots. You need to understand, you cannot be in a group of guys/gals if you catch the virus, and end up spreading it to others. That’s why you need to be vaccinated.

This philosophy applies to other entities. If you are an EMT / Firefighter / Police officer, you need to get vaccinated. How are you suppose to lead by example if yourself aren’t vaccinated? How are you going to tell the general public to wear a mask if you’re not wearing a mask, and be vaccinated?

The COVID-19 vaccine is coming soon to ages 5-11. This is huge. Parents want to return to normalcy. They want the kids in the classroom in a safe environment. They need the ability of the teacher/professor to take off their mask when they speak so they can address the classroom. But, teachers/professors cannot do that unless their entire classrooms are vaccinated.

Until Next Time!

While Sama’ Abdulhadi did not make the DJ Mag Top 100, she did make the Alternative Top 100 DJs 2021. I was very happy. The number one on that list is Charlotte De Witte, and she does Techno, so that’s pretty cool.

I was furious with the 0-5 result for MUFC. Things better change with the next match. At first I was very mad at the coach, but then Rooney made a good point: it’s the players who were on the field, and they need to ask themselves who was at fault. The Manchester Derby is coming up. More UCL matches. We cannot afford to make mistakes.

Until Next Time!
