   Just read a study that noted, “Unvaccinated residents showed higher hazards for transitioning to COVID death.” I am not sure that I've seen “dying” framed in such a delicate way.

   “Is he dying, doctor?”
   “No, he is merely transitioning to death.”

     @augieray It's the only way you can get right wing asshats to care about it. Framing it with a scary word like "transitioning".
