The Coronavirus thread

Quote: rxwine

Also, I don't think your individual right to not have your body penetrated by a needle would always supersede the rights of the public at large if it came to someone carrying around a bad disease and we could cure it with a shot. It may not be the case with coronavirus, but you sadly would have your misconceptions corrected if it did happen.

If it is cured with a shot get the shot and you are safe. Leave those of us with reservations about it alone.

If it works why do you care if I don’t get it. If it doesn’t then why should I get it?

I'm talking about a more dangerous disease and essentially being a carrier. You can carry around some disease and keep potentially infecting other people with it while not suffering from it yourself. I'm not talking about coronavirus as it's short term for being infectious.

Again if they get the shot they are safe.

Sherri Tenpenny, the Ohio anti-vaccine doctor who made national headlines for claiming in viral testimony that COVID-19 vaccines make people magnetic, has lost her medical license.

Florida Health Department "will pay the plaintiffs' $152,000 legal bill and resume regular posting of the data that DeSantis's communications team insisted at the time was no longer necessary because cases had 'significantly decreased' and that Florida was 'returning to normal.'"

Ex-Democratic Florida state congressman Carlos Guillermo Smith, who filed the lawsuit, said, "Twenty-three thousand Floridians died during the Delta surge, and not only did the DeSantis administration restrict information on Covid during that time, they repeatedly downplayed the severity of the outbreak to fit their political narrative and help DeSantis run for president. That decision cost lives. Our school leaders were struggling to make informed decisions about how to mitigate the spread of Covid, whether it be masking or social distancing policies, or other strategies. They needed data, they needed information, but the state made it unavailable, then said it didn't exist."

The Guardian reports, "Smith said the settlement became inevitable when an appeals court ordered the health department earlier this year to produce documents containing Covid data it claimed did not exist."

He emphasized, "The DeSantis administration was caught red handed lying about the existence of these public records in court, repeatedly claiming that the records we were requesting didn't exist, then saying even if they did exist, they would not share them because they were somehow exempt. All Floridians have a constitutional right to public records and receive them in a timely manner. And what's interesting about the governor's arguments about Covid is he repeatedly talks about giving people the choice over masks and vaccinations, but without critical public health data how are they able to make informed choices?"

Researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) and Universitätsklinikum Erlangen have examined a man who has received more than 200 vaccinations against COVID-19. They learned of his case via newspaper reports.

Until now, it has been unclear what effects hypervaccination such as this would have on the immune system. Some scientists were of the opinion that immune cells would become less effective after becoming used to the antigens. This proved not to be the case in the individual in question: his immune system is fully functional.


Certain immune cells and antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 are even present in considerably higher concentrations than is the case with people who have only received three vaccinations. The results have been published in the journal The Lancet Infectious Diseases.

The man who has now been examined by researchers at FAU claims to have received 217 vaccinations for private reasons. There is official confirmation for 134 of these vaccinations.
