I'm sorry, do you think because I have a goofy screen name that I'm pretending to be an actual doctor? Do think this dumb screen name I have because of some dumb joke we had in college is implying I'm pretending to be a real doctor? Are you serious? Have you ever been on the Internet before today? Also, last time I checked, Joe Biden was just the president, not a medical researcher, so I'm going to just tell you now, you're really grasping at straws with this reply...

Vaccines aren't about "stopping" the spread; they dramatically reduce the spread, which they were very successful at. They also dramatically decreased hospitalizations and deaths.

And no, I don't want people to evaluate potential side effects, because too many people lack the basic scientific literacy to actually do so. The vaccines were proven to be both safe and effective and you still have idiots out there calling them "poison", so no, I don't think I want those people making decisions that affect the health of society.

Maybe they should have started by just tearing down the Newport Grand and putting something there. How much space do they think they need? Do we need 25 more acres for a bunch of stores to sit empty?

My own slight hope is that when it's done, maybe there will be more lanes in places that make sense, but I'm not hopeful. The layout just doesn't make any sense to me. It just seems like you've taken a full duplex road and converted it to half duplex with the stupid lights.

This design seems insane. There seems to be a lot of pinch points that will just create a ton of traffic. And now because of all the lights, your stopping people from getting on the bridge to wait for people getting off whereas before there were two separate ramps for each. I hope they have a plan on how to fix this, because it seems like a total mess that will lead to more accidents.
