"15 days to slow the spread" has now reached Day 520

"The rate of new cancers per year is 442.4 per 100,000. Let's pretend ALL of those are curable. So it's 88.4 (20%) out of 100,000 people... not 200 out of 1000... talk about data manipulation and fear mongering.

"You're addressing made-up people with made-up beliefs"

So items spelled out in the Democratic Platform which you voted for and support are "made-up".

Either you are an uneducated progressive voter (most likely).

Or you are willfully ignorant.

You never run into a democratic voter that can articulate their polices.

"Orange Man Bad" "racism everywhere" are the only retorts you get from these mouth breathers.

Here is the D E M O C R AT 2020 Party Platform.

This is what you voted for....Have a look.

https://democrats.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/08/2020-Democratic-Party-Platform.pdf

Basically it's "free" cr@p for their loser base, abortion on demand, ending school choice, and fighting "racism" and "gender neutral bathrooms", more 'free' stuff.

Everything a progressive 'man' could possibly want.

I don't find you annoying, just not very impressive.

You also voted for this complete laughing stock of a leader....

Global media slam US, Biden as a ‘joke’ amid Kabul chaos

https://nypost.com/2021/08/17/global-media-slam-us-biden-as-a-joke-amid-kabul-chaos/

The vaccine is fine is it?

Why is the Covid raging in Israel and the UK, two of the most vaxxed nations on the planet?

Why is it so low in Africa with its low vax rate?

Why we are now being told mere months after the roll-out that boosters and needed?

And that only the unvaxxed are being hospitalized? And when that is shown to be a lie, we are then told the vax does not prevent future infections and you still can get it and pass it on.

How can you possibly know the long term impact of an experimental vaccine thrown together in months and given emergency use authorization by an FDA commish who then got a big job with Moderna?

Are you aware that Big Pharma created fake trials to show that the highly addictive opioids were not addictive and completely safe and effective? And our doctors dutifully prescribed them for a decade and now 500,000 young and largely healthy Americans are dead from ODs?

How many times will the Lie change from these documented liars before you begin to see something is wrong?

Are you incapable of letting go of the Lie?

Once you take the vaxx that's it. You can't un-take it.

Too late for you now, but anyone who still has not been vaxxed I would counsel be wary.

LOL, I'm a Christian, and fully support you doing this!

Maybe add in that:

"God chooses to reveal himself through other people.. Old Testament: Israel. Currently: Christians filled with the Holy Spirit who are supposed to be 'ambassadors for Christ'... so maybe.. just maybe... God will use humans in the form of doctors, hospitals, vaccines, and sensible policies to spare people from Covid (and other diseases) just as God has worked through humans for all of human history- evidenced throughout literally every single book of the Bible."

Wazzu,

Are you cleverly and ironically trolling? I just ranted about how I don't care about politics, the media, etc, and you responded with a post 100% about politics and some democratic party stuff.

Lol, no I didn't vote for Biden, nor have I ever voted for the democratic party... although I was chastised on Facebook when I said I didn't vote for him.. so that was fun :) and I understand why people can be annoyed with liberals and democrats.

But again, getting the vaccine has nothing to do with politics. I can disagree with 100% of democratic and liberal policies/ideas and still believe it's logical to get the vaccine.

c7runner7 is your run of mill JUCO graduate, working at Starbucks, serving up Pumpkin Spice Lattes to other skateboarding social justice warriors while he, holds court, and waxes on....

"I knew the first wave of vaccines would not work" blah, blah, blah....

I am so impressed with these liberal arts and sociology majors!

"I just wear my mask to comply because it's cosmetic theater for my other worthless progressive friends." "We are getting all the boosters and I can't wait for my VAXX passport so I can move freely around whatever Blue city dump I live in."

I am c7runner7 hear me ROAR!

Sure it does. Don't be blind. Blue State Progressives are 100X more likely to take the non-fda approved vaccine than Red State Republicans are.

Blue State Governors are much more likely to institute lockdowns and mandates than red state governors.

My Conservative Town of Coeur d Alene, ID - Has ZERO covid mandates or restrictions.

300 Miles West, In BLUE Seattle - they are issuing mandate after mandate.

This is 100% about politics. It's certainly NOT about your health if you are young and healthy.

Here is what I am arguing; If you want to play COVID for the next 5 years. Go right ahead. No one is stopping you.

You certainly don't need me to lock yourself down and mask up and VAXX up.

Knock yourself out.

Just leave Idaho and the red states alone.

Another idiot, making another idiotic post. 26K new cases on 8/17/21 in Texas alone with 174 deaths. That was two days ago. Total worldwide cumulative: 209.2 million with 4.4 million dead.

Newsflash..idiot. The flu isn't as contagious or as deadly. When was the last time the flu was the 3rd leading cause of death in the U. S.? When did the flu kill over 600K in 18 months? If you think Covid19 isn't dangerous, do a Boris Johnson. Remember him, the British Prime Minister, who denied Covid19 and went into a hospital unmasked and then caught Covi19 and ended up in the ICU almost dying.

Let me know when you get the Delta variant or a loved one gets it and dies and let us know that it isn't a big issue. Idiot.

Another idiot who hasn't kept up with the news about Covid19 at all since December 2019 I see.

When was the last time a Republican presidential candidate won the popular vote? Meaning had the support of America?

Classic

Question for all the anti mask, anti vaccine, anti science, anti common sense people.

What do you want? Do you want Covid19 to continue? What have any of you actually done to stop the spread, the hospitalizations and death? What have you done other ran show the world how ignorant you are.

Since you folks are so damn smart, smarter than virologist, the WHO, CDC and every person who has worked on a vaccine. Tells us all how to defeat Covid19. Or are you still waiting on it to miraculously go away, like the former idiot president said.

Gähn. Another ad hominum liberal grievence post of the day

UK death rates per million last week were 10; compared to 15 for the US. The UK has a 61% fully vax rate compared to 51% for the US. The numbers are pretty comparable and don't prove much.

Israel is also at 15 deaths per million last week. Their fully vaccination rate is 5.8 million out of 9.3 million or 58%.. but supposedly they have a higher percentage of old people vaxxed...although the US also has about 77% people above 65 fully vaxxed so the data really isn't that different between countries.

But yes, vaccines aren't fully effective, but they do improve odds.

Literally every statistic I can find says non-vaccinated are hospitalized at higher rates than vaccinated. Obviously, vaccinated people can still get sick and die, (which, side note; doesn't that make Covid seem more real?? lol). But again, it's about odds for me, and the odds are better being vaccinated.

Africa? South Africa has fully vaxxed rate of 7.7% and death rate of 43 per million the last week.. so over 4 times the UK... Great example! There's 9 other African countries with higher death rates than the UK with a few at over 80 per million. Also, many of the Africa counties test far, far less... so I'm not sure how accurate all this data is anyways.

I'm not sure why people are surprised by boosters? We haven't eradicated Covid like we have the measles. Of course, we'd need boosters for an on-going, adapting virus.

I can't prove the long-term effects. No one can. But what are the odds you will feel fine for 5 years, and then spontaneously develop some disease caused by vaccines with no evidence that will happen? I ate a watermelon grown in some sort of pesticide/herbicide yesterday. I feel feel right now, but who knows, maybe it 5 years I'll be infertile. Lol, anything is possible (I guess), but c'mon man.

I don't know much about your claims about opioids. But I don't dispute them. I don't even take advil, and I'm honestly pretty cynical about pharmaceuticals so I resonate with your initial hesitancy, but the vaccine still makes sense to me.

I have no emotional investment in this and no political investment. I just want people to be like robots, crunch the numbers, operate in 1's and 0's, and pick the choice with 50.1%+ chance to be more beneficial than the other. That's it.

What do I want? Nothing. I am doing anything at all. I have not been inconvenienced one bit.

I am just living my life in Coeur d Alene, free from all the COVID hysteria.

So again, while YOU do everything that is asked of you; masks, booster shot, lockdowns, mandates....while you juggle these balls like a chimp riding a bike in a Circus....

I have not done a damn thing to 'protect' me and my family from COVID. We have all had it and moved on 16 months ago.

You are the ONE that is inconvenienced and jumping through hoops for a virus that virtually has no chance of killing you if you are healthy.

So to you I say...

Wazzu,

There's only about a 10% difference between Republicans the are vaxxed vs democrats. That's not 100x.

But regardless, just because people make it political, doesn't mean it should be. Democrats can claim the sky is yellow, while republicans can claim it is red. In a poll, 90 % of Dems can say the sky is yellow, while 90% of Republicans say the sky is red. But that doesn't change the color of the sky. The sky is not dependent on people's political beliefs- and neither is the vaccine.

You are very angry. You need a beer or something.

Great post.

Wazzu and Unkle are such trolls that it's sadly not worth responding to them. Isolate narcissists sitting in their basements posting 18 hours a day. You will never get them to move an inch.

But this is such a rational, reasonable poast that it certainly will discourage some would-be COVID-deniers trying to jump on the Unkle train.
