Wow that's pretty low. Calling people idiots because they don't care to join the masses and get an invasive procedure that puts a NON FDA-approved vaccine into their body. For the record I'm fully vaccinated and I still respect others who currently choose not to be.
Still have to view that in context, Georgia has for most of the time had a more severe problem than state that had consistent science based policies, for example the death rate comparison of Georgia and Washington
This is all sorts of incorrect. Every single one of the vaccines are listed as 90%+ or less in effectiveness. None of them are stated as 100% and none of them are FDA approved.
This is a great deal of a high-horse style post. SMH.
Pay attention, he said likely which is the case, facts matter.
And this is the point most people are making. I would say 99% of the masks people wore were NOT N95. Just cloth masks. They are joke to be honest.
Don't speak to me so condescending. Adding the word LIKELY doesn't change a thing. 🙄
I believe the vaccines work because 1) I understand how to read clinical trial data, and 2) places with high vaccinate rates have seen covid rates plummet to almost nothing.
I question tons of things about the pandemic. I question the people who still think we need to wear masks outdoors. I question the people who still think we need to deep clean playground equipment.
Without declaring FEMA martial law powers the feds can't do that no matter who is leading the country.
Well its great to be you! As Asimov noted their ignorance isn't equal to someone else's intelligence. There can be no 'herd immunity' if they don't get vaccinated and so anyone complaining about its lack or waiting for it to happen needs to talk to them.
Be helpful if you'd cite the source for your graphs.
Conservatism is a death cult of ignorance, selfishness, greed, and narcissism. When people compare having to wear a mask to the Holocaust it just proves what I said is 100% correct. For all the whimpering about how oppressed they are because they couldn’t get their nails done for a few weeks, you’d think then they’d WANT to take steps to get this virus under control and eradicated as quickly as possible right?? But no, they can’t even wear a mask for a few minutes inside Wal-Mart, because its “oppressive”, they won’t get vaccinated because they suddenly are worried about side effects or supposed toxic ingredients. These same people literally bathe themselves in thousands of toxic chemicals daily, lots of them smoke, drink, and eat mystery fast food produced by genetic engineering on factory farms. All that stuff is harmless but now they are experts on health and are afraid of a vaccine which is the only way out of this since there are too many variants and too many selfish people.
Both people that have been vaccinated and those that have antibodies are contributing to heard immunity, not solely those with vaccinations. And nobody knows for certain at what percentage of the population heard immunity starts.
Ok, but that’s not relevant to my point. You can include those with antibodies in my 50% and 95% example. I didn’t get a chickenpox vaccine because I had it as a child (before the vaccine was available).
Making judgement calls based solely on your own well-being can be selfish. My point is that the “why should you care if other people choose to be vaccinated if you are vaccinated” logic is flawed. This isn’t just about the COVID vaccines. With many vaccines, the risk/reward calculation isn’t just an individual concern. I personally will have lower risks if everyone around me is vaccinated for a communicable disease. Part of the reason some people are against vaccinating their children is because almost everyone else is vaccinated for the diseases, so their own children will have a low risk either way.
A sore arm is the most common side effect, and one I experienced. My point is that as the total vaccination rate gets high, even minor side effects could enter individual risk assessment. Yes, more severe reactions are also relevant to risk assessment.
You do know you are talking about 2000 deaths in a full year, for a country of 140 million? I repeat, 2000.
