Awesome bro. So glad you’re taking your health seriously.
If only 100% of everyone got this jaxxed up, there would be no more viruses.
Got a tip for us?

You've been skipping leg days. Loki does not approve.
Wait, everyone here is triggered because of the anti vaxxers, the question i have about this story is “staff shortages” does it have to do with the mandatory Apple COVID policy as well?
I’d have to agree that the virus would disappear. After all, a virus can’t spread without living hosts.
"Phony crisis" used up all the ICU beds in some hospitals in Texas and caused them to order more trucks for overflow of dead bodies
Texas Requests 5 Mortuary Trucks as COVID Cases and Deaths Soar
Texas has requested five mortuary trucks from the federal government as COVID-19 cases and deaths surge in the state
It’s been detected in papaya fruit, motor oil, wastewater, bare swabs, etc.I’d have to agree that the virus would disappear. After all, a virus can’t spread without living hosts.
But my opinion is irrelevant.
You find a way to see coronaviruses reliably and effectively at 1 micron, and can clearly distinguish from others, then what you “agree” with might be true.
If not, and without some groundbreaking future innovation in research capabilities, it’s all just idle speculation/sensationalism.
If all adults get the vaccines, children don’t have to. Hurd immunity requires 80% of the population to be immune. Note vaccines are not 100% effective. So, if 90% of the population gets on average a 85% effective vaccine, that will get you 0.9*0.85=76.5%, which is not enough for herd immunity.
Yea let’s just throw out numbers with no backing….
well aware, my point is unvaccinated Americans isn’t why we have delta
Too funny. No, hilarious!
First vid: Harris said she would trust Dr. Fauci's assessment, rather than trump's. Spot-on and correct response. Especially after trump was going on about bleach and hydroxy treatments to combat covid.
Second vid: Seriously? An RNC propaganda video of truncated sound bite cuts with no continuous context, all designed to mislead.
As an informed voter, is that how you form opinions and conclusions regarding covid, and politicians worthy of your vote?
False equivalency so I can’t respond to this. A plague is not the same as car accidents. Also the argument is to take safety measures- a shot in the arm or a seat belt in a car.
As such harm reduction is always the goal- harm removal from any situation is impossible. Not masking is not taking any steps to reduce harm.
anti Vaxxer arguments are easy to knock down. They are not based on fact. You won’t win this.
He never said ‘American’s’ … I guess your reading skills need a bump. There is no edit of his post you quoted either. So technically he could be right … regardless of where the world is.
A variant being discovered somewhere doesnt’ mean it couldn’t evolved in people elsewhere.
If the spread were stopped, delta wouldn’t have spread. It’s not complicated.
You seem to believe we can stop the spread or have the capability of doing that. No country with widespread seeding of this virus has been able to stop the spread.
When you hear the term ant-vaxxers in any sort of context over the internet, it's typically talking about Western countries, ussually conservative American's. The point is, blaming a variant that came out of India which did not have widespread access to a vaccine on Florida is not at all accurate or fair.
What? Manhattan has 75% of adults fully vaccinated. What’s Alabama’s rate again?
Do you not understand that those overflowing hospitals are full of unvaccinated people? Unvaccinated people are the problem and who are prolonging this pandemic.
Explain. If you and lots of other are vaccinated, why do you care what happens to the unvaccinated?
Yup...true...they should get vaccinated, not sure why you prolong a pandemic when the preventing their deaths and hopitilizatoins is 99% possible. At this point I'm done making an effort for people who won't make an effort themselves.
If the unvaccinated lived (and died) in a bubble, I wouldn’t. But:
1. No vaccine is 100%. Some people are medically unable to get the vaccine, some people are too unhealthy to have a worthwhile response to the vaccine, and some people just have bad luck. They are vulnerable despite being vaccinated, and the higher the spread the more likely they are to get sick.
2. The unvaccinated are selfishly filling up hospitals and taking up space needed for people with non-COVID emergencies. Oh, you had a stroke and need immediate intensive care? Sorry, some jerk who was too lazy to get a shot took the last bed.
I‘d say it’s as accurate and as fair as your statement “ant-vaxxers in any sort of context over the internet, it's typically talking about Western countries, ussually conservative American's” you’ve just validated that the original commenter and myself stating he didn’t say ‘American’s’.
Just cause a ‘term’ started one place doesn’t mean its specific to that place - just like ‘Spanish Flu’ … it didn‘t start in Spain contrary to popular social belief - which is lack of information.
Fair enough, willing to bet that is what he meant though. You don’t hear people in third world countries who can’t get a vaccine being called anti vaxers
I can agree to that, and I’ll go with yes probably what that poster meant.
regarding third world countries mentioning anti-vaxxers … for those countries with non-English native languages (that I surely don’t understand) I wouldn’t know/understand if it was spoken in native tongue anyway lol. not even sure a direct translation of a western N.American term would work anyway. Also mentally people’s of other countries would think about such topics differently I’m guessing.
Either way those that choose to/not to vaccinate is purely their choice, in their right. Just for those that do not should understand and be careful that their solely responsible for their health and be mindful that their choice ‘may’ affect health those of others. We all share in this environment. Victimizing those that chose not to is wrong - I’ve done that months ago and changed that action to not do so and respect others choices.
I would suggest you take a look at this. It says otherwise.
