12,800 to 1 sounds like pretty good odds.


1 in 128,000. Pretty good?

Same as the odds of having a severe nervous system reaction to the Yellow Fever vaccine.

Pfizer and Moderna are more effective in preventing severe disease. 95% vs. 85%, and GBS hasn’t been associated with them.

GBS is no joke. I know someone who had it in 2009. Woke up one morning, arms and legs paralyzed, and in extreme pain. Very lucky his chest muscles were still working. He recovered several months later.

Thanks.

The county I live in sets the record for lack of inoculations and infected per resident in the state.

Twin records? Well who would have thought it. Almost like there's some sort of correlation.

Is the bring-out-your-dead cart coming by daily?

McDonald's by my house finally reopened their dining room, so hopefully we are near back to normal.

Hallelujah! Duffman can finally stuff his face with sub-par fast food again! All while spreading his potentially contaminated droplets to nearby children enjoying their happy meals.

Great idea, now time for you to take your own advice and "stay home, mask up and deal with your fate."

Ahh, No. I am vaccinated and have moved on despite the "scary Delta variant".
You should really do the same and quit fear mongering.

It's fascinating how you are such an expert on CNN/MSNBC
The only way to know this is to watch a lot
How much CNN and MSNBC do you watch
Must be a lot.
I have no idea what Fox is reporting
I just don't care and don't have time for it
Why do you watch so much left wing TV.
I don't even watch CNN or MSNBC
Why do you care so much about them
Trump ain't President. Our national disaster is over. Hardly anybody watching CNN

Again Ed, just take your meds and go away.
Every post is useless drivel about what you like, what you do, etc.
No one gives a $hit about it Ed.

Since the election
I have watched none
Is CNN on right now at your place :-)
It's really fascinating that right wingers are addicted to CNN and MSNBC

Smart move: I assumed due to the tenor of your posts that you were anti-vax.

My bad.
