If you took the ineffectual jab, do you now feel hoodwinked?

[HymanKaplan_rivals48997]

I am literally the only person I know, in day to day life that didn’t get the shot.

I’m also one of only 3 people out of that group to not contract Covid. This includes a NYE party I attended, where 12 of 15 people there ended up with it.

Make of it what you will. It’s worth noting that I’m not exactly a Spring chicken either.

So, anecdotally anyway, the shot is worthless.

The deluded think it's everyone else that's crazy.

The only deluded people here are the ones that have an issue with people getting vaccines. It's probably also a safe bet to say they have uttered the words "fake news" or "hoax" and actually believe that. That is true delusion.

 

[American Dragon]

Uh, do you get 4 flu shots that are derived from experimental technology in roughly a year’s time?

Besides, flu shots have been around a long time.

No, but the shots and COVID are still relatively new. We're still learning about how long the effectiveness holds up and how well it holds up against different variants. We haven't had 90+ years experience with COVID and COVID vaccines like we do with flu and flu vaccines.

It's also not uncommon for vaccines to require 3-4+ shots.

Lastly, the technology has been in existence since 1987. That's not experimental.

Maybe, but I'd be more careful with that "only" qualifier.

Some 50% of democrat voters thought some 50% of infections led to hospitalisation. It's far easier to brainwash people than most people are capable of realizing.

We can agree on that.

make sure you get your 6th booster!

I don’t have a problem if someone wants to get a vaccine, just as said person shouldn’t have a problem if I abstain.

Dig?

Nor should you be "restricted" IN ANY WAY (vaxx passports, masking, etc)... because, for the 10 millionth time, if the vaxx works, those vaxxed should have no problem... right?

I agree with you on government mandates. However, a private business has the right to set whatever conditions they want in regards to masks and vaccines for their employees and customers. Customers are free to take their business elsewhere. Employees are free to secure employment elsewhere.

mRNA vaccine research began in 1987 so try again.

I'm on about my 35th flu one.

Exactly. Been worked on since they were given immunity, but couldn't get it safe enough to move to human trials phase. All of the animal trials were 100% failures with the animals dying at most within 6mos. Some died immediately upon injection. Fauci gave a speech about this and said in 2015 they were "still 20+ years away from human trials" ... until/unless there is a pandemic.

The reverse is true for Republicans. It's been pretty well established that Democrats over estimate the severity of Covid while Republicans underestimate the severity of Covid.

Exactly. If someone was dead set on treating themselves with injected aluminum, mercury, and some other stuff to prevent them getting herpes, who am I to say no? It's not my decision. Have at it

Math and Science should be about finding absolute truth.

this pandemic has exposed science as being able to be manipulated/framed by those in charge and in charge of purse strings. This is undebatable and frightening.

EVERYONE has the right to be suspicious/cautious. ‘The Trump Vaccine’ started the muddying of the waters of trust and placing doubt in the govt ability to handle.

Plaquenil was quickly removed from allowable treatment regimens. Ivermectin too. Why? FDA approved meds that cost nothing to produce.

Doctors were not allowed to treat their patients with anything BUT the vaccine(s). There is always ALWAYS a right for a medical second opinion… Covid Squashed any right. doctors who didn’t follow the meandering CDC guidelines were vilified, cancelled and pilloried as dangerous kooks. Has anyone actually listened to the two doctors who appeared on Joe Rogans Podcast? Or did folks who now hate Rogan as a lunatic just pick off headlines and add it to the bag of repeatable talking points?

Science and vaccines also brought about Thalidomide which I’m sure some forget to look back on… but the point remains, and side effect of these Covid vaccines should be examined and not swept under the rug.

Not to the same shocking degree it isn't, wasn't at least.

One of the silver linings in all this is that some people on the left are starting to realize they've been lied to too, that yes, your fake news chit stinks too.

At least the wild eyed facebook conspiracy theorists saw the BS for what it was.

 

[WildcatofNati]

Not even close to correct. The survey in question indicated that Republicans also ridiculously overestimated the hospitalization rate per case. It was a ridiculous overestimating. But not AS ludicrous as the estimate from Democrats. Independents were in between.

No man, he saw 1987 and that was enough. No worries about how long it’s actually been given to humans.

More for you!
