New Covid Vaccine Requirements

[easy rider]

I‘m starting to question if the take rate on the vax is as high as they are reporting it is. I’ve read reports stating anywhere between 70-80% are vaxxed, but their desperation to push the shot seems almost in panic mode. I really do wonder if they are reporting a higher percentage of takers as a way to convince those who are on the fence to take the jab. I mean, just from what I read on the forums I‘m a member of, comments sections of news articles, and feedback from friends and family, my thought is that the take rate is more like 50-60%.

Certainly I believe they conflate the numbers to make those who haven't gotten vaxxed feel as if they are in a smaller minority. But in looking to control the lives in a country of 330 million, even 20% - 30% could mount a very large partisan fighting force. Through mandating incrementally their hope is having the average Joe turning in those unvaxxed to reduce those numbers further. That is starting to happen now, and although it's not yet happening in Texas, I wish I could say it wouldn't happen here.

This really sucks.

I saw my cardiologist on Wed. and he told me that monoclonal antibodies are hard to come by at this time. He said he was unable to find any for one of his patients that needed it.

There's a thing circulating around talking about using Betadine up the nose and gargling to kill the virus in the nose. Seems like it would be worth the effort.

Surveying my immediate acquaintances, neighbors, coworkers, life group members etc, my guess would be 95%. Myself, My wife, mother at 97, daughter, son in law, and 3 coworkers are all I know that haven’t.

I must be in a community of hold-outs. Nobody admits to being a guinea.

Correction. Out of 45 in my immediate circle, one of my DIL's became a pin-cushion. And then she got the Chi-Com Flu.

I think it's as high as they say it is, but the delta (lol) to convince the rest of us is gonna be pretty steep.

Since it's not much more than 50 50 folks are done. Especially those who got it in spite of getting vaxxed.

Some NY resident needs to sue the socks off the state of NY for discrimination.

How racist can you get?

This latest variant seems to be getting a lot of people, but with no serious effects. Everyone I know is just a little under the weather and is back to normal in a few days.

This variant could be a blessing

Agreed....especially if the mild illness provides immune resistance to the severe variants. It could be the chicken pox to the smallpox....

I hope you are right, but I think it really hard to interpret the data. A really big percent of the population has either had vaccine or had covid. Our internal % positivity on our testing went from 5% to 24% in one week. I’m told only 40% of our current infections are omicron. Hopefully the next 2-3 weeks don’t turn into a shit show. Staffing will certainly be a big issue.

T42,

So, are you a 'true believer' - you know, keep on getting vaxxed and believe the stats on c-19 - if you are ok by me - fiction is entertaining.

Dr. Robert Malone talks about the MRNA he helped develop.​

Yes, I believe so too, but if you happen to listen to Dr. Fauci, you would think Omicron was civilization ending.

He has been wrong on everything else, so I don't expect anything different now.

Yeah, I think he needs to just shut up and hope everyone forgets the BS he's been spinning. Never seen someone dig a hole so deep that it hasn't buried him, yet many people still follow on his every word.

Where's the drug commercials that say, "Don't talk to your doctor, listen to a politician", because that seems the norm with this administration.
