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.


Simple. There is no reason for the correlation, just a random thing.

Maybe the people who got the vax are just more afraid to leave their houses so get in fewer accidents?

I strongly disagree. People who refused to get the vaccine show a clearly irrational view of risk/benefit. It apparently carries over into other facets of life. People who make obviously stupid decisions have shown that they are…. People who make obviously stupid decisions!

Anti-vaxxing is an aggressive, anti-social move; ergo it follows that anti-vaxxers will act similarly in other aspects of their lives, driving aggressively, arguing excessively, and (saving the best for last) defecating continuously as they really are full of "it."

Actually the opposite. People who take the vaccine to "be safe" probably figure they have seat belts and airbags so can just take the risk.

Seriously, people need to get over those of us who do not want the risk of the vax. You have it, you are safe. Let the rest of us choose what to do with our bodies.

Meanwhile, seems like Elon should stop tweeting stupid Covid BS and start focusing on…. other things.



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.



I would PM a mod about this insult, but you’re not even worth the effort cause no one responds to your posts other than to mock you. ✌️

He probably bought into the big red wave and cant deal with Walker, Lake loss and Dems holding onto the Senate
No doubt he's supporting Lake's lawsuit to bypass the voters and have the court simply declare her Gov of AZ :-)

Where in my post do I challenge your right not to get vaccinated? My post just elucidates my opinion that anyone choosing not to be vaccinated shows a striking lack of ability to understand a risk/benefit concept. I have never said there is zero risk to getting the vaccine. I had what would be termed mild side effects myself after I think two of my shots. In summary, the risk of the vaccine is far lower than the risk of not being vaccinated. Of this there is NO doubt.

It will take a decade to know for sure if there are no long term side effects. The common thing I see among those declining the vax is they have been lied to enough by the establishment that they have major concerns. At least all the ones I know. From our government to out corporate employers lie after lie. The need for booster after booster alone is confirming our roubts.

People buying into prevention and treatments that didn't even have enough time to go through one proper trial destroys your credibility.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?
