So the vaccine is nowhere near as effective as we were told, its not permanent like we were told, it has circulatory and cardiac side effects, a higher risk of death than any vaccine in history, it isn't keeping up with variants, and we are already on our 8th COVID-19 variant in less than 2 years.



Many studies have shown it to be very effective against Delta (60-85%).

I'm with you being against mandates. But I also believe getting this vaccine is better than not getting it, even against Delta.

I post a few times a week. I have better things to do than to sit on here all day.

Why do you believe that? Do you know how effective this vaccine will be against NEXT year's variants? Do you know what the long term side affects of the vaccine are? Its actual mortality rate or even how long you will be protected? Do you know what your personal risks are if infected with COVID19 or how natural immunity might protect you? Why do you trust these Pharmaceutical companies and lying politicians so much?

Put differently, if Trump were urging you to get the vaccine this desperately, would you be so trusting?

I mean, Trump himself got the vaccine. And he spearheaded its development. And, he has urged folks to get it.

why did you leave out the part where I said "this desperately"? Did Trump offer free cash, beer, or lotto tix for the vaccine? Is Trump out there blaming the unvaccinated, many of them POC, for the recent spikes?

Here's the issue I have right now. We ALL accepted a completely new and experimental vaccine technology developed in mere months, based on a shite TON of fear and the idea that it was 95% effective, permanent, robust against variants, and had no side effects. None of that happened. There are more question marks than ever. Now, the bait and switch has begun - even Mickey said it; "but its better than nothing!".

My response to that is; prove it! Tell me my true risk profile, show me the reinfection rates, and give us the breakthrough cases. They wont give us the data, but we are expected to get this jab that's looking more and more pointless by the day.

It's a fukcin virus like the flu for christ's sake.
The main test the world's been using since day one can't differentiate between covid and the flu, HTF would it know what "variant" somebody has?

Because of so many studies I’ve seen, infectious disease specialists promoting the vaccine, and an infectious disease doctor I personally know in New Orleans recommended it.

I personally never believed any of these about the vaccine. I figured it would be about as effective as the flu vaccine 67%, likely to require additional boosters, and with side effects similar to the flu vaccine.

I vaguely comprehend the whole MRNA argument, but I'm honestly not equipped to decode its meaning in relation to this vaccine. Instead, I rely on three GPs who are friends of ours, and they universally (1) took the shots and (2) recommend it to their patients with few limitations.

No, he just spearheaded the project to get it created in record time. He was out of office by the time the vaccine was in wide-release and being incentivized for distribution. And, in fairness, Xiden didn't offer cash, beer, etc. either. Those came from Krispy Kreme, Budweiser, and individual states.

My wife works at North Oaks in Hammond, and she isn’t a pro-vaccine person, and she tells me they are full, and more people are being placed on ventilators daily. She has no reason to lie and I could tell she was genuinely concerned.

What are the profiles of those entering the hospital. Still affecting old, fat and diseased the worst? Further, what are the profiles of those entering the hospital and being placed on a vent? Still the old, fat, and diseased?

So, the vaccine doesn't work?

At this point, if you have a working effective vaccine... the amount of food remaining is disappearing at a great rate.

I felt like dog shite two days last week. Slept real hard. Feel fine now other than a persistent cough. Is it Covid? I have no idea. I’m not getting tested.

ETA I did hear the bar I religiously hang out at has an uptick with the regulars.

Delta variant
If I get sick, I get sick

I’m definitely over the whole shamdemic and the reporting about it


And if I die, I will die...although I am VERY low risk for that from this.

Hell, life is fragile. I could die driving to work tomorrow. I could get struck by lightning going to get the morning paper. The Energy Drinks I consume every day might stroke me out. I have accepted death will come.

We don't know when we will die. That is the Beauty of Life and I Love it and Live it every day.

Now let me frickn live my life until that time comes.

LDH website shows 127 Covid ventilator patients statewide. During the peak of this OLOL was running 98 vents by itself.

We will make it.
