Where is it stated/documented that the vaccines cause variants? Some other poster claimed the same thing and I’ve been asking for the source. So far, just crickets. The virus itself mutates into variants the longer it exists. Anti-vaxxers are helping it do this.

Regarding deaths from the vaccine, where are you getting those numbers?

From the CDC:

Reports of death after COVID-19 vaccination are rare. More than 380 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through September 13, 2021. During this time, VAERS received 7,653 reports of death (0.0020%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. FDA requires healthcare providers to report any death after COVID-19 vaccination to VAERS, even if it’s unclear whether the vaccine was the cause. Reports of adverse events to VAERS following vaccination, including deaths, do not necessarily mean that a vaccine caused a health problem. A review of available clinical information, including death certificates, autopsy, and medical records, has not established a causal link to COVID-19 vaccines. However, recent reports indicate a plausible causal relationship between the J&J/Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine and TTS, a rare and serious adverse event—blood clots with low platelets—which has caused deaths

After ALL these years and MANY, MANY, MANY deaths, why hasn’t the flu & pneumonia been cured also? Why do we expect to eradicate this SO quickly? Malaria? AIDS? What about TB? MRSA? Common cold? Why does anyone of adult age believe that exclusively mandating these vaccines & wearing masks will eradicate this type of airborne corona/Sars-2 virus beyond all concerns? If defies all logic and common sense and medical knowledge/history. There are PLENTY of ways to stay well and even treat this is you get it. Even the WORST AND DEADLIEST flu season I’ve ever seen didn’t even begin to get near the public attention this has AND it didn’t shut down the whole world economies, threatening to do it again at every variant strain.
 
The data tells us that 90-95% of those severe Covid patients occupying ICUs are unvaccinated, often with other co-morbidities. If vaccinated folks were clogging up ICUs and dying preventable deaths, the data would show it - and it does not. Your risk of dying of Covid is 10-30x greater when not vaxxed - and goes up if you've got other comorbidities, obesity being the primary one.

Don't take the internet's word for it, go ask your MD (not your neighbor who does medical billing, nor an LPN, nor a politician)... they'll inevitably tell you to get vaccinated.

There's a reason why we didn't close schools and businesses for the flu or previous viruses... they didn't fill up ICUs and fracture families in anything close to the numbers that Covid does.
Great post!

Treatment + natural immunity > Vaccine. Treatment is what helps you get better, not a vaccine. Natural immunity doesn’t create escape variants, vaccine does. Natural immunity also has full spectrum and longer lasting protection.

Because if you do get the virus(and you're vax'ed), you don't end up in the hospital, you lessen in the risk of DYING.

You dont have a huge medical bill. The government and the hospital aren't taking the bill anymore.
I’m all aboard once we get the fatties, the smokers, alcoholics, and druggies forced to reform their ways and lessen their cost to the medical system. /s

I don’t understand you. The links and text you provide are contradictory to what you are saying. For example…

”Article from 2021 explains that unless vaccination is done quickly, there will be a high probability of escape mutants:”

So then… get vaccinated quickly!


“CDC warns COVID-19 may be a few mutations away from evading vaccines. The virus isn't mutating to avoid the vaccines because of unvaccinated people, it's because the vaccines are putting evolutionary pressure on the virus:”
https://nypost.com/2021/07/27/cdc-covid-19-may-be-a-few-mutations-away-from-evading-vaccines/

Did you read the article you linked? It basically says the opposite! From that article:

“Right now, fortunately, we are not there. These vaccines operate really well in protecting us from severe disease and death”

”The agency chief said the possibility is even more reason for people to get vaccinated — so that the virus can finally be off at the pass before it mutates into something that requires another vaccine.”

“Health officials have stressed that rising coronavirus case numbers in the US are being driven by unvaccinated Americans.”

”Currently, people who are not vaccinated are responsible for around 99.5 percent of COVID-19 deaths and 97 percent of hospitalizations, officials said.”


Moral of the story is…. GET VACCINATED.

Ah so you completely disregarded my studies and decided not to read them. Why can’t you respect someone’s personal choice?

perhaps it’s because you yourself were fooled, and feel the need to push it on others? Kinda like a pyramid scheme, really.

Yes, it has happened before. Just like the vax, the purpose is mitigation (i.e. reducing the chances), not a guarantee.


The risk of seatbelts is way less then the risk of the vax vs the risk of covid. Consider 95% of covid deaths were over 55 years of age and over 85% where over 70 years of age. Considering the age of most apple employees I would say the risk of the vax is higher then the risk of covid.

You chose to ignore the discrepancies I pointed out to you. With the exception of the first article from one doctor, the basic message is vaccinate.

Your ”personal choice” is fuelling the problem, not the solution. It’s as clear as daylight, even from the articles you posted.

Yes. Everyone here talks like COVID 19 will be eradicated if we just "vaccinate" everyone. I will happily wait for someone to name the respiratory virus with animal reservoirs that has been eradicated through vaccination. Zero COVID is a fallacy and a fantasy. The "vaccines" are very effective at protection (NOT transmission). Get one - to protect yourself! But please stop playing into this us vs. them mentality that is tearing us apart. It needs to stop.

To me, these issues are more about logical arguments instead of a personal thing. It’s mostly those people wanting/pushing universal vaccinations /boosters (pass cards/restrictions etc) that I observe are getting really nasty and divisive about it. And yes, I whole heartedly agree that aspect needs to stop 🛑
 
Great hyperbole…because the facts aren’t in line with the hyperbole.
Actually the facts are in line.

It’s funny that no scientists or Pharma companies or governments can prove the data wrong that’s appearing from places like Israel and Guatemala
 
If the only workable solutions to your (real, imagined, whatever they may be) health problems of the day depends on what others do/don’t do (or forcing them to do/don’t do) then in all likelihood you’re just plain screwed. If you’re that afraid then reorganize YOUR life to satisfy yourself. The cold and flu and pneumonia and hundreds of other contagious diseases can’t ALL be completely avoided even under the most ideal circumstances. Life just doesn’t work like that and when tyrants try to use force to eliminate all their fears the world ends up with Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. That’s WAY more dangerous to human life than covid 19… and we actually have history to show us that!! By the way…when do you think the cold & flu will return since it’s been oddly absent during the COVID fiasco? Oh wait… hospitals aren’t getting paid extra for those!
The cold and the flu are much less dangerous than covid and don't overflow the healthcare system. And don't you think maybe the cold and flu weren't as bad because everyone was wearing masks and keeping their distance and staying home? And of course you think covid is a scam crafted by hospitals...
 
Says who? Politicians and TV stations? Politicians and TV stations are paid to say these things.

Jab works? Why worry then?

Jab doesn't work? Why you want me to take your jab that doesn't work? Huh? You pick, but it's either A or B. If it doesn't work, and that seems to be the argument, "it doesn't work 100%", then why TF would I be taking it? No thanks, that shot hasn't even passed animal trials, the only people who say it works are people who directly benefit from it financially, and now you also say it doesn't actually work? Whyyyyyyyyyy would I take this? There's a considerable risk - I believe it compromises the immune system.

That being said - I have natural immunity, I've had covid - immune for life. You don't need to be afraid of me. I am healthy as can be, I have no diseases I could be transmitting - you can give me a hug, and nothing will happen to you!

That's the beauty of being healthy.

Once upon a time, people were aware that other people who are healthy do not pose any threat to them!

I think we need to go back to this time, where common sense prevailed over fear motivated by an unprecedented grab for cash and power.

Stop being afraid. Speak what you think. Let others speak what they think. Do what you think is best. Let others do what they think is best.

This is America! This is how we do things.

We don't hide under the cupboard until daddy state gives us our injections and puts muzzles on us. We stand up. In this time more than ever it is crucially important everyone finds their spine, and that includes moderators on tech forums. Your future depends on it.
Politicians and tv stations? No, science says the unvaccinated are the problem. Liars spreading misinformation are the problem.

Stop being afraid of a little shot like a toddler. Stop pretending there are considerable risks. Stop trying to equate masks with muzzles. You're not a tough guy, you're not a strong patriotic manly man, you're just scared and desperate for some sense of identity. Grow up.
 
The "vaccines" are very effective at protection (NOT transmission).
The vaccines of course do reduce the risk of transmission if you get infected, and they greatly reduce the risk of infection in the first place.

You understand you cannot transmit covid if you don't have covid, right?

Doctor speaking during FDA advisory panel states the vaccines cause myocarditis. Also states that the vaccine hesitant population is more educated than the vaccinated population.

HIGHLY respected virologist with serious concerns about safety of continued vaccination$. https://www.geertvandenbossche.org/post/the-last-post

Dr. Geert Vandenbossche was mentioned very approvingly in the recent Jimmy Dore video where he interviewed Dr. Robert Malone, the inventor of mRNA treatments. EXPLOSIVE Truth About Vaccines & COVID w/Inventor Of mRNA Vaccine Technology, Robert Malone

https://keyt.com/health/cnn-health/...-like-heart-attack-in-kids-pediatrician-says/ Seven youths ages 14 to 19 were suffering from a very rare type of heart inflammation. It’s one that public health officials are beginning to link to Covid-19 vaccines.

MSNBC Boston Local News Station: At Least 18 Cases of Apparent Heart Problems in Young People After COVID-19 Vaccine


36 people developed a rare blood disorder after receiving the vaccine

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/...ed-rare-blood-disorder-covid-vaccination.html

FYI (important to understand local hospital numbers better) - you are considered unvaccinated on their charts if:

NO vax

1 vax

2 vax less than 14 days ago

Plus Israel added recently: Without 3rd booster

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/fully-vaccinated-guidance.html

"For the purposes of this guidance, people are considered fully vaccinated for COVID-19 ≥2 weeks after they have received the second dose in a 2-dose series (Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna), or ≥2 weeks after they have received a single-dose vaccine (Johnson & Johnson [J&J]/Janssen)†. There is currently no post-vaccination time limit on fully vaccinated status. People are considered not fully vaccinated if they have not completed a two-dose vaccination series or have not received a single-dose vaccine, regardless of age, including children under the age of 12."

Basically amounts to local hospitals are being deceptive with the numbers they are posting up. They are also not including prior comorbidities and still relying on overcycled PCR tests, plus there is that massive cash bonus for listing people as having died from CV19.

The government is now also offering people burial expenses if the deceased is officially listed as having died from CV19, so its a cash incentive not only for the hospitals but also for families that would like free burials instead of having to fork out between three and ten grand to bury someone who may have died from other causes but now gets listed as a CV19 death. Its all conducted to inflate the numbers and carry out the long term plans of the elite which is that vaccine passport tied to social credit scores and online accounts. Its all about control.

In regards to the CDC's vaccination guidelines for CV19 injections, in other words, you could have taken the first shot or even the 2nd shot, then gotten sick, possibly from the shot, and then you are still listed as unvaccinated if you have not gone a full 14 days from completion of the 2nd shot. Its quite deceptive, the way they are doing it. Megan Kelly covers more hospital financial deception in this new video. There is strong evidence that the CV19 case rate has been seriously overinflated intentionally by hospitals in order to receive unlimited CARE Act funds. The video is going viral and has millions of views already.

All medicine comes with contraindications. You're treating this as an all or nothing proposition, which is why I called your post hyperbole.
 
Vaccination status is part of medical history. Try rejecting or firing an employee in most jobs for refusing to take a vaccine. I didn't have to prove my measles etc vaccines to go to school or work in my current job. My employer now requires attestation of covid vaccination to enter buildings, but they're evidently dancing around actually requiring proof, and they're eventually requiring in-office work but have no plan for handling employees who aren't vaccinated by then. There's no clear-cut law for this; it's more just a large lawsuit risk.
As a.person that grew up in the US and my children in the US. I had to provide vaccine status all through school. Including college when I moved into the dorms.

My daughter, a college student, had to provide vaccine status for measles, small pox, polio, etc.

My school age children in high school must provide vaccine status.

I'm in CA. If you research vaccine mandates; Mississippi has one of the strongest in the country, except for Covid.

There is clear cut law that mandates by schools, employers and even the government are legal. In 1905 the supreme court decided and it has been precedent for 115 years.
 
The vaccines of course do reduce the risk of transmission if you get infected, and they greatly reduce the risk of infection in the first place.

You understand you cannot transmit covid if you don't have covid, right?
Help me out then. Explain asymptomatic spread. Explain Israel. Explain Uttar Pradesh.
Stop demonizing everyone. Encourage people to get the shot to protect themselves. Most are not bad people.
 
Asymptomatic means someone is infected. Just no symptoms. The jab is a community need. Pure and simple. Expand that community to world wide community.
