Some media people are really enjoying their roles as doomsayers.

Yeah I saw that yesterday. small group, not peer reviewed

But there was 1 breakthrough case of the British variant and 8 whopping breakthrough cases of the SA variant (out of millions and millions vaccinated), so "THE VACCINE IS INEFFECTIVE AGAINST THE SA VARIANT. YOU'RE 8X AS VULNERABLE!!! THE SKY IS FALLING!!! EARTHQUAKE!!!!"

Yeah, no. Get your shots and shut up.

I think a lot of people don’t understand that the vaccines are much more effective collectively than they are individually. Once I’m fully vaccinated I’m going to still be pretty careful until cases come way down.

Yes, absolutely. Unfortunately, that just doesn't compute for an entire political movement whose sole organizing principle is "MINE! MINE! MINE!"

My 3-year-old shares better than the GQP. So, for that matter, does my 20-month-old.

This, entirely this.

We've failed miserably in this country to teach basic human health information, and this entire pandemic is evidence of that.

These statements, which we hear constantly from all over, are 100% born out of ignorance:

• I am healthy and will recover, I don't need the vaccine.
• I prefer to tune my immune system naturally, not artificially with vaccines.
• If I can still get the virus after taking the vaccine, what's the point?
• I'll be fine, so I don't need to worry about spreading it.
• But it was rushed!!!1!1

This is decades of not educating ourselves on basic health matters, and instead listening to religious and political leaders. This is the culmination of The Death of Expertise (ironically written in The Federalist): https://thefederalist.com/2014/01/17...-of-expertise/

They like you all nice and plump. But yeah they love you and care about your health.


CDC: 80% hospitalized, needing ventilation, or died from #COVID were overweight or obese. (42% in US are obese; 70% overweight - most low in vitamins A & D.)


When it comes to "basic human health information." Healthy people who take care of themselves are just the best.

• Don't get sick, don't take up hospital beds.
• Don't take up resources. Which is good because we need many in this country of unhealthy people that don't want to take care of themselves but apparently want to take care of everyone else.

And just for good measure. Masks don't work to stop the spread of infectious diseases such as SARS-CoV-2

Some media people are really enjoying their roles as doomsayers.

Some? Pretty much all of them since Biden isn't causing Twitter to explode every 12 seconds. They have to fill the vacuum somehow.

That is awesome Scoob!

It’s also the libertarian/freedom mentality that infects the dopes. This was mentioned several times in the grad classes I had comparing different countries health systems.

also happens that many of these freedom loving dolts are ok listening to crackpot religious leaders

Im getting J&J tomorrow. Wife got her shot today.

Saturday (day after) was rough. But, recovered by Sunday. I can see why you dont need 2 shots.

[ScoobyDoo]

Getting shot #1 today.

Shot 1 is only shot I need. Turns out they gave me Johnson and Johnson. All done.

Apparently the same reaction as AstraZenica's

You might as well just stop offering it. Given how many people die or get severely sick from Covid not sure how wise of a move this was. This also will likely discourage folks from getting Moderna or Pfizer as well.
