Coronavirus

[Swerd]

All the above makes it really imperative that everyone gets vaccinated. We do need to get 90% full vaccination over the next six weeks.
Everybody, yes, everybody needs to confront those not vaccinated. It is time for businesses to deny access to the unvaccinated. It is totally irresponsible now, not to be vaccinated.

It's worth repeating and repeating!

It is totally irresponsible now, not to be vaccinated.

Irresponsible isn't the word. Trying to talk someone into taking the vaccine is akin to shoveling sh!t against the tide. The keen level of arrogance required to substitute one's own ignorance for the expertise of actual experts is mind blowing to me. This is the kind of sh!t that led to public beatings!

I think we are at the point:

You can choose not to get the vaccine. But you have also chose to pay for your own medical care straight out of pocket and you can't file for bankruptcy over it.

You can choose not to get the vaccine. But you have also chose to pay for anyone you get sick that was already vaccinated or couldn't medically get the vaccine.

You can choose not to get the vaccine. But your employer can choose not to employ you.

You can choose not to get the vaccine. But public and private entities can choose to deny you access and services.

We are now in a national IQ test. By this time in 2022 you'll either have the vaccine or have the virus. I'm at the point if it kills your dumbazz, Sorry, not sorry.

Charles Darwin had something to say about this:

Here's how dumb people can be in their excuses:

No one knows if there are any long term complications to getting the vaccine.

My response is: Well I know of one long term complication to getting the virus.

Them: What's that?

Me: Death you fukking moron. *Yes people are this incredibly stupid.

The unvaccinated just don't get it, until they actually "GET IT".

Young Black Americans Are Most Likely to Avoid Covid-19 Vaccine

A survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau found nearly a quarter of Black adults younger than 40 were likely to eschew inoculation.

Just google search terms that you would never put in google like, "unvaccinated most likely to be young black men", and you will find stories and information on the subject. BMX's statement, while false, is not entirely incorrect. But regardless, this sort of thinking is tribal and stupid.

I've read the last few pages of the thread. Good grief. WE ARE SO SMART. THEY ARE SO DUMB. WE GOOD TRIBE. THEY BAD TRIBE. This thread has turned into a real circle jerk.

You know what looks most like an angry cat? Another angry cat. Everything you hate about "them" manifests itself in you as well. Confirmation bias and the scapegoating mechanism go hand in hand. I am encouraging all of you to examine your own biases, to study your own ugliness first.

And like I wrote on here a few months ago about another scary variant. I'm here to say the same thing again, we're going to be freaking fine. See graph.

I'm out there working seven days a week. Probably going to make more money this year than I've ever made. I wish I had done the same last year and not worried about any of this.

In the beginning, I remember watching this video of a young British man in Wuhan.

He was in Wuhan in January 2020. And in one of his videos, he calmly explained that he doesn't worry, because when you worry, you are hurt twice. Once when you worry, and once when it actually happens. At the time, I thought how can I not worry? And I was losing my mind, buying all kinds of cleaning material, bleaching the sidewalk in front of my house like a psychopath, etc. Worried about what other people were doing or not doing. I didn't pursue the opportunities I had at the time because I was so worried. It's my personality, my own personal Mt. Everest. It's my bias to believe the worst about the future, and I battle it every day.

And here's a real question for all of you. Imagine you're twenty, I know that's a long time ago for a lot of you guys, back when gas was still leaded or the Soviet Union still existed, but I'm sure you will remember that your concerns were some combination of getting laid, getting drunk and getting rich. Young people know the virus poses little threat to their health. We're just finding out that the vaccine does little to stop the spread of coronavirus. What impetus does a twenty year old have get a coronavirus vaccine that's not punitive?

Your not a member of the "SMART TRIBE", apparently.

The unvaccinated just don't get it, until they actually "GET IT".

I just wish they would GET IT faster.

Every tribe thinks they're the smart tribe. You fail to see the point of my post. You're old and beyond help, but I hope you're happy, healthy and die in your sleep on your hundredth birthday.

Your information is false. I have reviewed the case fatality rate for people 18 to 30 years old. With current management it is 2 per 1000 in that age group. Now the peak infection age group in the US is the 18 to 24 years old age group. So in thousands of infections, 2 per thousand is a lot of deaths that could be prevented in that age group. That is way higher than any vaccine risk which is over a million to one. Then paradoxically younger patients seem to be much more prone to long Covid problems. Those with structural brain injuries will be injured for life, and are at high risk of early dementia.

In Louisiana 27 individuals age 28 to 95 have died after being fully vaccinated. There have been no deaths in the vaccinated under 28.

So the risk benefit ratio to 20 years olds is enormously in their favor from getting vaccinated.

So I'm going to come down hard on you as a purveyor of seriously false information.

I don't think you quite thought through your statement. There is an evolution and survival schema to tribe structure. Here's a hint for you: Smarter tribes do better than dumber tribes.

I've been seeing a lot of signs during protests saying something to the tune of "my body, my choice." Personal choice, unless you're a woman.

I've been seeing a lot of signs during protests saying something to the tune of "my body, my choice." Personal choice, unless you're a woman.

It is also your personal choice whether you wash, shower, clean and groom yourself. In which case you could enter a room or shop, and stink it up. It just happens that others can sense the stink and you will get escorted out.

In infectious disease there is no stink, or immediate detection, until someone later is affected. So if you substitute your nose for vaccine detection and or testing, there really is no difference. It really is that simple.

Just to clarify my post; I was being sarcastic as I find it ironic that the very people protesting the vaccine by saying my body, my choice, are the same people who say the opposite when it comes to abortion. The signs they hold are no different than ones pro-choice folks hold during protests.
