Quote of the day: People do not care until they learn how much you do. (April 03, 2020)
That was awful and dishonest or ignorant. It misuses the VAERS database in a way that has been pointed out is not the way it is intended to be used. AND he dishonestly interprets Bourla's remarks. Bourla's remarks were solely regarding two shots and catching the COVID omicron variant. The author dishonestly states that applies to severe disease and death as well. When clearly that isn't the case and isn't what Bourla said. I think it fits well in the misinformation category. Opinions are one thing but this appears to be deliberate dishonesty.
Thank you.

I don't mean to be condescending here but that's a silly take, it's like saying Covid never killed anyone, their heart stopping killed them. Fat diabetics were not falling dead by the hundreds of thousands because of their comorbidities. I know these people don't deserve to live but come on, illogical take.
It shows that our response was mistargeted, we've known since day 1 that covid was really only a threat to the very old or the people who were already weak and sick.
Sure there are outliers that get a lot of media attention but mostly that is the truth.
So from day 1 everyone should've lived their lives normally and only the old, weak, and sick should've had to take drastic measures.

I suppose it's OK to throw that 5% of the healthy Americans out with the old people bath water. To be fair, you have a point and I think that is the direction we head by the end of this year. The therapeutics are going to be the key, where most of us can get a rapid test and then take the Covid-pack and be fine in four or five days. I also expect newly developed vaccines that will work on future variants.
I just think its nearly impossible to avoid it. So to disrupt the economy and life over something thats going to happen anyways imo is worse.

Nobody is even pretending to try and avoid it in Ohio but you do make a good point, you can only avoid it for so long. It's also a fair point and one that I made from day one, the restrictions and lockdowns might end up causiing far more death and suffering then the virus itself. With Omicron we basically have decided to bite it hard and see what happens.

Sheâ€s much better today so hopefully on the mend.
Good to hear, it pretty much mimics most of what I've heard from those that are vaccinated and get ill. (Not sure of your status). My wife's symptoms mirrored those of your wife but with a sore throat too, her's lasted a couple days and then she was fine but couldn't talk for a week. She tested positive yet on day seven and her company has a ten-day policy anyway. I either had VERY minor symptoms or was lucky and didn't get infected from the wife, grandchildren or daughter.

Between steep spikes in murders, suicides, drug OD's, missed medical treatments for heart disease and cancers, etc... has definitely caused more death and despair.

We were both vaxxed and boosted. She also had a bad sore throat but itâ€s better too.

Good deal. Thatâ€s what we want to hear. My best friend did the 5 day isolation and is at work today no symptoms at all.

He has a point, but he should also know that the NFL changed their protocols. Vaccinated players are only tested if they are symptomatic and anyone who tested positive earlier doesn't have to test again for something like 90 days. So of course fewer are testing positive.

I understand, at this point most have made up their minds and right or wrong, there's not much that can change them. Even most of us that are strong supporters of Vaccinations on this site are not for mandatory vaccination or masking requirements. I just don't give outright lies and ignorance a pass, decisions on what's best for all of us deserve the facts at least.
All Iâ€m remarking on is how a lot of the discussions appear to me.  Iâ€m not making a case against the vaccine.
This is pretty much on par with the discussion on the jab being experimental and flu and colds being capable of causing viral and bacterial pneumonia and cold viruses canâ€t cause lower respiratory infections. Even as information is being presented that clearly stated as much, there were board members who couldnâ€t be intellectually honest.
I found information that discussed how there were three beta coronaviruses that were responsible for causing SARS that were thousands of years old and wouldâ€ve been agreed upon as being cold viruses… and there was a doubling down of sorts that cold viruses canâ€t cause lower respiratory infections, even though SARS is a lower respiratory infection and coronaviruses that were considered cold viruses caused SARS. Lol!

Have you ever prescribed a drug off label?
