Good thing people have built up natural immunity and most people won't need the shots. Because we're not taking them, and fuck any mandates.In Texas, the people are split, economically, between the top and bottom 50%. Most of the bottom half don't get vaccinations. They don't quit smoking, either, and don't brush their teeth correctly. Lot of things the bottom does wrong and yet insists it's their right, they're right. Statistically it is very predictable how their lives end. 6ix, you are proof those professors at MIT are correct: Huge mortality gap in U.S. In unprecedented detail, lifespan gap shown to be large and growing rapidly. https://news.mit.edu/2016/study-rich-poor-huge-mortality-gap-us-0411 “But the fact that they can on average expect to have 10 or 15 fewer years of life really demonstrates the level of inequality we’ve had in the United States.” The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at www.mediafire.com/folder/1uwh75oa407q8/Firefly

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

Quote:“We seem to be willing to rush a vaccine into clinical trials without extensive animal model or safety testing,” said Paul Offit, a University of Pennsylvania immunologist who co-developed the rotavirus vaccine. “People are so scared of coronavirus that even those who are young and healthy will be willing to take a relatively untested product — even though the wild-type virus is unlikely to kill them.” Offit’s vaccine, which eliminates thousands of infant deaths each year, took 26 years from design to licensure.
Quote:Red tape and delay can sometimes pay dividends in drug and vaccine approvals. Industry officials laid into FDA official Frances Kelsey in 1961 for her reluctance to approve their morning sickness drug thalidomide, but her sloth turned into a blessing. While Kelsey pondered the submission, news of crippling birth defects in thousands of babies poured in from Europe, and the FDA never approved the drug. During the 2009 H1N1 swine flu pandemic, federal officials decided not to approve vaccines that contained a new substance designed to boost the vaccine’s effectiveness. As a result, the United States was spared a controversy over an unpredictable side effect — narcolepsy — that struck people in Finland who got the newer shots.

Quote:A massive campaign to vaccinate against the 1976 swine flu flopped when the disease turned out to be mild, but hundreds of people suffered a rare nerve disorder after vaccination.

Quote:Originally posted by 6IXSTRINGJACK: Remember the housing market "bubble"? We've got a "people bubble" right now. Just as in most areas the "replacement value" put on most houses for homeowners insurance is quite a bit more than the actual values of homes still to this day, the costs to pay health insurance claims and pay out life insurance policies have become far too high compared to the value of an actual single human life. This is another side-effect of overpopulation. And if you think I'm bullshitting you when I say they have models out there that have put a dollar value on your life from any factor including age and sex to what's in the darkest part of your medical records, I suggest you do a bit of research on that. They know to the penny what they feel your pinky finger tip is worth if you cut it off on the job site. At 7 1/2 BILLION people on the planet, we're literally a dime a dozen. What have you done today to earn your place in this crowded world? :)

Just the immediate Trump loyalists in his immediate circle. Something to consider when thinking of their actions or lack of actions. "Let them get infected."
