Ok. Being first doesn't make you right. It just means you're first.
It also means the crowd is following you

To those of you that believe in the protection of the vaccine,
You can still contract Covid from both unvaccinated and vaccinated people,
You can still transmit Covid to the same people,,,,,
So who the hell are we supposed to be protecting by taking an emergency use vaccine that has not been proven safe, jut safe enough for now?
The only possible protection the vaccine offers is that vaccinated might have less chance of a severe case and dieing. It depends on co-morbidities.
But the co-morbidities hold true on the unvaccinated also.
I don't care how scared you were. I don't care about how much you do or don't care about your fellow man. I don't care about the science.
Who is being protected by the vaccine and how. And from whom?

How do you explain healthy people getting the vaccine, then developing symptoms in a matter of days and then dying?Umm. . .the people who get the vaccine. . From COVID
Your risk of severe COVID goes way down (like more than 95ish% after the vaccine. We have about 40ish percent vaccination in may area and 91ish% of the admitted people are unvaccinated. 96% of the ICU patients are unvaccinated. The vaccinated that get really sick are usually pretty sick people to begin with.
I’ve seen more than a couple of people who deviously recovered get COVID again with the delta variant. Usually had very mild cases last year and now require hospitalization. Not very common, but a few.
Not until you end up in the VAERS database, it doesn't.It doesn’t hurt at all.
I’m curious about this and believe your numbers. My question is were those hospitalizations strictly because of Covid. Maybe asked differently, the question would be ‘of your admitted general population, what percent were known covid positive prior to admission and would not have been admitted otherwise? Same goes for ICU.…91ish% of the admitted people are unvaccinated. 96% of the ICU patients are unvaccinated...
So.......same old bullshit.Umm. . .the people who get the vaccine. . From COVID

If she's in the age group that is most effected, in the medical field, and would rather quit than get vaccinated, maybe that should tell you something.My girlfriend's mother just gave her notice. She's in her 70's. Still works full time as a RN. The system she works for is starting to mandate the vaccine.
And can you back up that assertion of "very small" with any logical science based fact?Who knows though, there is a small chance you are right about the health risks. Very small though.
It actually reaffirms what many of us already believe.If she's in the age group that is most effected, in the medical field, and would rather quit than get vaccinated, maybe that should tell you something.
A few weeks ago our CEO announced that the covid 19 vaccine was going to be mandatory but he made a brief statement that those that had a religious opposition to getting the vaccine would need to speak with HR and each case would be individually considered. HR sent me a form for me to write a statement as to why I religiously objected to the vaccine. My HR just recently got back to me asking if I would object to wearing a mask at work and maintaining social distancing with everyone which I responded that I was OK with all that. They also asked if I would mind paying for covid testing and the masks that I would need to wear to which I replied that if they wanted me to test for having covid and wear masks then the company should pay for all of that. My impression after this recent meeting with HR is that I will be granted an exemption on religious grounds to not get vaccinated. We are planning to return to work back to our offices in early October (been working from home for over a year) so they will be making a final decision on my case before then.
Congratulations. Good for you!As a follow up to this post I made a few weeks ago... HR at this liberal CA based company I am presently working at has been mostly silent and I am getting the impression now that they are not going to honor my request for a religious exemption for their mandated vaccination policy.
But thank God as last week an old business acquaintance contacted me with an great job offer that is much better than what I am doing now so I accepted it and put in my 2 week notice. The company I will be going to is a Texas based pro 2nd Amendment company unlike the one I am with now and they will not have any mandated vaccinations.
Anecdotally, most of the COVID + patients were admitted for covid pneumonia. Seems like a much higher percentage than in the last wave.I’m curious about this and believe your numbers.

From what I glean much of the hospitalized population is provided supportive care which can also be effectively delivered via home health care services.
How do you explain healthy people getting the vaccine, then developing symptoms in a matter of days and then dying?
Would you call that normal, or acceptable?
How about people still getting Covid after getting the vaccination?
Is that normal, or acceptable too?
You know where I categorize most doctors? With shyster lawyers and sleazy politicians.
It was a good statement until you put this in There, very disingenuous of you. To me 'want' and 'forced' is opposites.Want to lose your job because you think avoiding a vaccines is worth more to you than your job.
Thanks. I’m still having a hard time reconciling how a virus that is both easily transmissible and highly lethal has staying power. It has to either burn itself out of hosts or it has to mutate to preserve itself. I get exponential increases in afflicted cases results in increased mortality because math and all that, but that doesn’t take into account the exponentially increasing population with immunity.Anecdotally, most of the COVID + patients were admitted for covid pneumonia.

As far as I know, we've lived with coronaviruses all our lives.Thanks. I’m still having a hard time reconciling how a virus that is both easily transmissible and highly lethal has staying power.

I’ve always said that thinking what we know is all there is to know is a fallacy…the key must still lie in what we don’t know, and I think that’s going to be found in how endemic this turns out to be in the long run. I would *think* more endemic than more epidemic would be a better outcome over time. I doubt this virus will ever be eradicated.
Once the collective ‘we’ recognizes this I hope things become more rational and less binary.
