Damn'it Mission. Quit being practical. Are you new to forums? You must take an extreme position on one side or the other and defend it until your death. No wonder they won't let you be a moderator. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

The only surprising news I've heard this whole time is finding out the Pfizer vaccine actually working as well as it did. Since they already announced vaccines would be rolled out expeditiously, that wasn't a surprise. Only reason you would be surprised at anything about the vaccine that's happened so far, is just lack of knowledge. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

I would not say the right is panic mongering. It is more they are just saying it as it is. Like anything else, there is a part of the USA, about 40-45% of the nation, that want safety and protection above all else. They tend to have grown up in suburbia, safe from anything, and think life should be risk free. Nobody dares say, "see, thing is, this virus will be around for years. You might get sick from it. You might die from it. You have do deal with it." Nobody dares say it because the said 40/45% would have a breakdown. The President is a fink. |

Every single word of it is the truth. I just told another hospital nurse about it when I was inquiring about my brother. I tell everybody I come in contact with in the medical profession about it and not a single one has expressed disbelief. They usually say something about that's what you get when you use untested vaccines. I said yesterday that my brothers Hospital is right back to where they were a year ago with taking the temp of everybody who comes in the hospital and everybody wears a mask. Vaccinated or not. Why would most of the people here believe the story when our fearless leader the crime family boss is telling them that they're perfectly safe. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Good, so let's not say it, because the 40%-45% (even accepting your post as incontrovertibly true) have demonstrated that they have the ability and capacity to shut everything down if they feel unsafe.

Tanko Member since: Aug 15, 2019 Threads: 0 Posts: 1995 | The Pfizer vaccine might possibly be just 39% effective against the Delta variant, but it is 88% effective against hospitalizations and 91% effective against severe disease, according to Israel’s health ministry. "99% of COVID deaths are now of unvaccinated people, experts say" |

I keep hearing that number and keep finding it hard to believe. There are also other conditions they keep finding out. Lower testosterone is a factor. Being obese. Blood type other than O. So many things. The President is a fink. |
