I'm not surprised, it's often the case.


I feel like you are trying to insult me, but it’s such a weak and obvious attempt that it’s just a fail.

I saw that tweet, but don’t even know what it means.

But I don’t speak right-wing-kook.


That’s interesting. Just shows you are young. Google Branch Davidian Waco. People my age will remember the weeks long news broadcasts that started with ‘Branch Davidians’. 1993?

I don’t think a human could be as stupid as you are so I must assume you are pretending so I must assume you are a bot.

'Canadian researchers concluded that people who didn't receive the COVID-19 vaccine were 72% more likely to be involved in a severe traffic crash – meaning at least one person was transported to the hospital – than those who were vaccinated.'

'A total of 11,270,763 individuals were included, of whom 16% had not received a COVID vaccine and 84% had received a COVID vaccine. The cohort accounted for 6682 traffic crashes during follow-up. Unvaccinated individuals accounted for 1682 traffic crashes (25%), equal to a 72% increased relative risk compared with those vaccinated (95% confidence interval, 63-82; P < 0.001).'

Conclusions

'These data suggest that COVID vaccine hesitancy is associated with significant increased risks of a traffic crash. An awareness of these risks might help to encourage more COVID vaccination.'

The authors – after examining government-held records of more than 11 million adults – theorize that people who don't comply with public health recommendations might also "neglect basic road safety guidelines."

The unvaccinated, the researchers suggest, might "ignore" the rules of the road because of their distrust of the government, a belief in freedom, "misconceptions" of daily risks, "faith in natural protection," "antipathy toward regulation," poverty, misinformation, a lack of resources and personal beliefs.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Sounds like a bunch of researchers pretending they are intelligent because they have a degree but in reality are book smart but street stupid.

They said theorize. They are trying to come up with a reason for the data they are seeing. Feel free to explain it your way.
