If I'm right though? I'm the one who has to live with the fact that I sat back and did nothing and said nothing to anybody that I cared about who got it. Good luck to everybody.

I know a 40 year old with a brain of a child who took a Jart to the dome that wouldn't agree with you. Well... at least his mom wouldn't.Not to nitpick, but Johnson & Johnson was sued because some, not all, mines supplied talc contaminated with asbestos. J&J was concerned but didn't do a damn thing because the asbestos/talc was cheaper than pure talc. The asbestos is what got J&J into legal trouble. Now if you have a reason to believe vaccines are contaminated with asbestos or something, then you have good reason to refuse vaccines. But if the contamination is all in your head, that is to say imaginary, then you have no good reasons. And who is so stupid as to throw Jarts and think it can't poke a hole in you? Next you will be saying nobody realized until product liability cases were lost in court that a spinning lawnmower blade can kill you. Hey, lawnmowers only cut lawns, says idiots, and Jarts only poke holes in lawns.

Quote:Originally posted by second: Quote:Originally posted by 6IXSTRINGJACK: But count me out. There's no possible scenario where I get that shot.Also there is no possible scenario where you vote for Biden: 2 maps that explain how partisanship has poisoned our fight against Covid-19 The remarkable overlap between the two maps: states that voted for Joe Biden have higher vaccination rates while those that went for Donald Trump have far lower ones. And it's not just that! In most cases, the stronger a state went for Biden, the higher the overall vaccination rate in that state is. That relationship is inversely proportional for Trump: The higher the former President's winning percentage is in a state, the lower, generally speaking, the percentage of the population that has been vaccinated. https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/08/politics/electoral-map-vaccine-map-covid-19/index.html I do know a strong Trump supporter who got vaccinated, but his wife is my sister. Between her and my other sister, the nurse, Ron ultimately had no chance to avoid the vaccination, although he tried. Ron is just one datapoint out of many convincing me that all Trumptards are crazy and stupid, but occasionally, uncharacteristically, they act sane and smart, although not because they are sane and smart.

Ron is also worried Biden is a Commie. It has been 6 months since the Inauguration but any day now Biden will reveal his evil plan to destroy the American brand of Capitalism, the greatest idea of all times. Ha-ha! Ron is an idiot. A few more things about Ron: he got laid off 21 years ago from SmithKline Beecham, when it merged with Glaxo Wellcome. He hasn't worked since. My sister supports him. He bought a Harley and hangs out with other unemployed Trumptards. He owns every Rush Limbaugh book, an author for those who feel they aren't getting a fair deal only because they are white. Ha-ha! It's not because they are white, it is because they are stupid. 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:Originally posted by 1KIKI: If, say, all of the people in the US were infected, that would mean 3.25M deaths at a minimum.
Quote:So, to get Trump's contribution out of the way ... He DID all the right things in terms of closing the borders to GREAT criticism from many democrats (if he could be faulted for that, it was too little, too late),
Quote:But mostly I point the finger at Fauci ... and the m$m.
Quote:The first instance where he frittered away his credibility was by saying "masks don't work". Well, they DO work. The proper masks like N95s protect the user from ultra-small particles, like asbestos and lead pigment, and infectious aerosols, and in reverse protect a process like chip fabs from human contamination. And cloth or paper masks protect the environment and people from larger particles, which is why OR personnel wear them - to protect the patients.
Quote:Then Fauci later backtracked and claimed that he was trying to keep a supply available for 'medicals'. But he lied about an inconvenient truth. And IMO you need to tell the truth, even if it's complicated, and nuanced, and unhappy, to be credible.
Quote:The second major loss of creditably came when he shaded, or failed to correct, the impressionism about vaccines being 95% effective. Most people assumed that meant effective against infection. But the original endpoints were hospitalizations and deaths. That caveat was only later addressed - indirectly - when the news started announcing that the vaccines were ~95% effective against infection. I'm sure that caused a few gaslight moments - when people were confused over what they thought they originally understood. Whether or not the virus could be laboratory-based was another huge divot. And whether or not the US was involved-in, or funding, gain-of-function research was another. All in all, Fauci came across as shady, and single-handedly cost science and medicine their credibility in, I think, A LOT of peoples' minds.
