great comeback dipshit. Again, you nailed it:

Where did I say listen to politicians for vaccine advice? The science is showing that antibodies from having the virus is not as strong as the vaccine and doesn't protect as well from variants being formed either.LOL. I’m not afraid of the vaccine. My immune system tells me I don’t need it and I’ve already had the virus. Why are you afraid to think for yourself?
What I am afraid of, however, is succumbing to stupid people who want to impose their will and their agenda on me and those who view their opinions as facts and then judge me when I don’t fall inline. I don’t judge anyone for getting the vaccine - it’s their choice. I choose not to so don’t judge me. I don’t go into nursing homes. If I felt sick I would stay home. If a place says wear a mask then I wear a mask. I gave blood 3 times since the pandemic started and I still have the antibodies so why should I allow some politician to tell me I need to get the vaccine?
Your politicization of all this is very strange. I can assure you that I’ve “done my research” by doing things like paying attention to the people who actually did the research and are responsible for translating its conclusions into action. Up until about a month ago, I was on weekly calls with the CDC and talked with the chief state epidemiologist in Illinois frequently. Maybe that’s one reason why “my research” doesn’t include random people on Twitter who seem to want to believe anything except official guidance.Such a stupid take. You can mindlessly fall in line like a zombie and do what all the politically correct institutions tell you to do. What do you expect the CDC to say? But how many times will Fauci and CDC and the so-called experts change their views? 6 ft? 3 ft? Masks don’t work! Now wear two or you are at risk!!
Look at the real data. Who is dying or being hospitalized due to Covid? Yes, of course there are thousands of cases but the stats for healthy people do not support the level of craziness being pushed on the general population.
Do your research. Don’t just regurgitate the crap from CNN piping in from your headphones while you sleep at night.
There is nothing on this earth that can be withheld from me, as a result of not getting a vaccine, that would force me to get a vaccine. If the human race was in jeopardy then I would do it.
Clemson is not requiring vaccines for students. Are you going to denounce the University and call them out? If not you and all those like you are complete hypocrites. Send tour kid to Michigan or Cal. Have fun with that.
Not a whole lot of trust in the CDC and local officials these days if I'm going to be honest and I'm one of them. I was always a skeptic but I totally lost faith when they seemed to come out of the blue and say "yep no masks now friends!" without any supporting evidence as to why.Your politicization of all this is very strange.

Thanks Doc. You don't know crap about "the science" - whatever that is. There are a gazillion scientists and so-called experts on this subject with all differing opinions on this non-FDA approved vaccine that is supposed to save the world. It has also been shown, scientifically, to have significant side-effects for some who take it and that includes several people I know. I've had Covid and I still have the anti-bodies and you want to tell me that science proves I'm not protected enough? LOL. I guess this virus will be suppressed just like the flu, right? Just stop with your non-sense and feel good that you are protected and quit worrying about what other people do. It's none of your damn business.Where did I say listen to politicians for vaccine advice? The science is showing that antibodies from having the virus is not as strong as the vaccine and doesn't protect as well from variants being formed either.
The more people who get the vaccine, the less variants and the longer this virus stays suppressed.

just so i'm clear, 600k deaths doesn't rly mean shit to you since it's less than 1% of the population and the vast majority are elderly people?![]()
COVID-19 deaths by age U.S. 2023 | Statista
Between the beginning of January 2020 and June 14, 2023, of the 1,134,641 deaths caused by COVID-19 in the United States, around 307,169 had occurred among those aged 85 years and older.www.statista.com
Let me help you out. Just as an example, the above link shows very clearly that the risk of death for this virus is extremely low for children and for anyone under 50. And for those age 75 and older, the deaths are 1 1/2 times greater than all the other age groups combined. The 591,000 total deaths represent less than 2/10 of 1% of the total population.
Now who is being political? What science or research are you listening to that warrants anything close to the pandemonium surrounding this "killer virus" for the last 18 months?
This is incorrect regarding the vaccine being better than natural immunity.Where did I say listen to politicians for vaccine advice? The science is showing that antibodies from having the virus is not as strong as the vaccine and doesn't protect as well from variants being formed either.

I had covid ... i have had antibody tests and I remain strongly resistant ... I am healthy. Why in the world would I want to get a vaccine for shits and giggles? My physician - like many others - has advised against getting the vaccine and many others say the same. The CDC sucks and they do not even recognize natural immunity which shows it it just political motivation.Your politicization of all this is very strange.

Why does Fauci continue to say wear a mask when you have already been vaccinated? It is BS.Didn’t they wait until a study was completed showing vaccines prevented the spread of the virus?

Here’s the science that convinced the CDC to lift mask mandates
The decision was guided by scientific evidence that the vaccines have played a major role in curbing both infections and transmission of the virus.www.nbcnews.com
80% of those deaths are above 65 years of age and they average having at least 3 co-morbidities that are severe.just so i'm clear, 600k deaths doesn't rly mean shit to you since it's less than 1% of the population and the vast majority are elderly people?
CNN may be guilty of story bias but the stories they do report are well vetted and have journalistic integrity for the most part. Fox is straight trash that panders to people who don't like reality.There is no equivalency. Get real. Fox News is straight propaganda. I'm not saying that competing networks don't push the envelope, get things wrong, or ever just straight up lie. But those instances are fairly infrequent. On fox News the entire business model is hot blonds telling Republicans that everyone is out to destroy everything they value.
Ftr, I think CNN is straight trash too. But it's not in the same trash stratosphere as fox News.
Dammit I'd gone like 2 months without getting into one of these. Now I'm done again.
Saying that CNN has so much more journalistic integrity than Fox or that one “panders to people who don’t like reality” more than the other is akin to someone arguing that Burger King is so much healthier than McDonalds… and the food quality at Burger King is light years better!CNN may be guilty of story bias but the stories they do report are well vetted and have journalistic integrity for the most part.

Except that one does report on things that are real and the other doesn't. Just like the Republican party is no longer about conservatism but a slavish devotion to Trump and his fact-free election claims, Fox is no longer about the truth but as a confirmation outlet for those that believe his lies.Saying that CNN has so much more journalistic integrity than Fox or that one “panders to people who don’t like reality” more than the other is akin to someone arguing that Burger King is so much healthier than McDonalds… and the food quality at Burger King is light years better!
People need to recognize that they are both garbage.
It is not.This is incorrect regarding the vaccine being better than natural immunity.
I get the impulse behind ornery individualism. Nobody likes being told what to do, and they especially don’t like being told what to do by a bunch of egg heads with knowledge not everyone has access to. But pretty much every country around the world has gone through some extraordinary measures to stop or slow this virus down. They weren’t going to disrupt people’s lives and slow their economies down for no reason, and based on no evidence. I think it’s also important to realize that very few of us are really competent to judge the evidence on these matters. The best we can do is to know who’s reputable, and then to figure out prudent actions based on reputable evidence. Unfortunately, that means trusting authorities, and that we can’t be an authority unto ourselves. It’s kind of an interesting democratic problem, really.Thanks Doc.

Fauci actually has said you don’t need to wear a mask if you’re vaccinated, and most recently has said the WHO’s guidance on masks doesn’t apply to the situation in the US. I’m not sure why you think he’s saying otherwise.Why does Fauci continue to say wear a mask when you have already been vaccinated? It is BS.
There is no virologist who will deny that natural immunity is equal or better than vaccine immunity. The discussion of vaccinated vs unvaccinated (look at the own damn video) is politics and virtue signaling. "I will put a gold star on your badge for getting a vaccine because we are better than you who did not get a vaccine".
I am sick of it.
Keep eating your Big Macs or Whoppers.Except that one does report on things that are real and the other doesn't. Just like the Republican party is no longer about conservatism but a slavish devotion to Trump and his fact-free election claims, Fox is no longer about the truth but as a confirmation outlet for those that believe his lies.
I don’t know if there’s solid proof of that being true, or if the issue is that they’re less sure about how natural immunity works than they are of vaccine-induced immunity. It’s pretty likely that natural immunity is robust, but vaccines can boost that immunity.It is not.
You are following well.
No cause I'm not getting the vaccine. See if you use a little thought process Trump was in charge when it was developed and I'm still not getting it. Maybe you'll understand one day it's not Republican against Democrat it's us against the Government. Here's the story. Good luck.You are following well.
So you put more faith in this just released report on Spanish TV than you do in our own government agencies? I have no doubt that this will be found to be misleading, meanwhile we have another "patriot" jackass trying to discourage people from getting a vaccine that has proven to be effective and safe.

One of the ironies of cynical anti-establishment attitudes is that they frequently lead people to believe things that are very unlikely to be true, just because they’ve found that mainstream sources are sometimes also untrustworthy. Instead of weighing relative trustworthiness, they just start to assume that the more outside of the mainstream, or the more something questions the mainstream, the more likely it is be true. It’s why so many of those people are attracted to conspiracy theories.You are following this article for confirmation bias.

Until you look thru the microscope and see for yourself, you're in the same boat as everyone else. Just going by faith.Your politicization of all this is very strange.

That and $7 won't even buy a cup of coffee because they would charge you extra. If you think this is about being anti-establishment, then you have a blind eye to what everyone has witnessed and a deaf ear to what everyone has been saying. It turns out that if the people pushing vaccines were a little bit more respectful of those who do not wish to take, then more people may get them. Needless to say, there are rational reasons not to get this vaccine.One of the ironies of cynical anti-establishment attitudes is that they frequently lead people to believe things that are very unlikely to be true, just because they’ve found that mainstream sources are sometimes also untrustworthy.

Id say lowering the chance drastically of 600k people dying in a year from a virus is very much worth it.Very little risk reduction worth.
But he still thinks it's only about himId say lowering the chance drastically of 600k people dying in a year from a virus is very much worth it.
Id say lowering the chance drastically of 600k people dying in a year from a virus is very much worth it.
The safest and most effective way to lower risk of someone who is vulnerable is to take the vaccine.There are ways you can quantify that. The best way for a vulnerable person to lower their risk is for themselves to limit their exposure to people who have been vaccinated and there are those who are doing that. Forcing others to take a vaccine is not right.
Not only is it less than 1%, it’s almost 1/10 of 1%. So to turn it to you, we should shut the country down and create a pandemonium reaction to something that afflicts about the same number of people (in terms of deaths) than deaths by texting while driving (about 400,000 per year). Look up the stats. Are you clear now or do you still need to be spoon-fed how to think rationally???just so i'm clear, 600k deaths doesn't rly mean shit to you since it's less than 1% of the population and the vast majority are elderly people?
