Covfefe-19 The 12th Part: The Only Thing Worse Than This New Board Is TrumpVirus2020

[Kepler]

Here's the real odd thing- the rich that you talk about *might* have gotten the vaccine very early on, before it became SO political. Particularly the party leadership- it's VERY, VERY likely that most of the Racists who are telling people to not get a vaccine have been vaccinated since December.

Think about that for a second- Congress really was some of the earliest vaccinated. So how many of them who are out now telling people that the vaccine is such a bad thing to do have actually gotten vaccinated???? The hypocrisy to THEIR OWN FOLLOWERS! And the result isn't that they are hurting someone's feelings- this is very much a life and death equation, or if not that- a healthcare bankruptcy vs. being able to survive question.

Oh I doubt any of them are unvaccinated. Sure, there are some first class morons in Congress who aren't -- Gym Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Liefenstahl, Gozer -- but those fucksticks don't matter. The guys with the cash are all completely protected. They don't have any illusions about rightwing conspiracies because they foment them to keep their voterserfs bleeding out the eyes and anus.

Don't quote the troll, but he's also ignoring the 18+ months of evidence that shows at least half the spread is from people without symptoms.

But yes, keep ignoring these pesky facts and keep getting people sick. "Nuh uh!" is the entire message of the Right at the moment and it's embarrassing.

Nice work. 18 months of "evidence" and then points to a "study" that uses another model. CovidZombie.


Household Transmission of SARS-CoV-2A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2774102

JAMA meta-analysis of 54 studies with 77,758 participants finds household secondary attack rate (chance an infected person will infect one or more people at home) is 18% if the index case is symptomatic and 0.7% if asymptomatic.


Your Health is Your Responsibility


A new report finds that obesity, diabetes with complication, and the presence of multiple chronic conditions were the strongest chronic risk factors for death from #COVID19 among hospitalized adults.

Someone I know as a passing acquaintance on Facebook(she's married to a guy I went to high school with) just lost her mid-thirties son to Covid.

Lives in Florida, both she and her husband die-hard Trumpers. And now she's on Facebook begging for sympathy for her loss.

Sorry, I have no more fucks to give. Remember, it wasn't the Covid that killed him, it was the co-morbidities. Should have taken better care of his health.

Sorry it has to be this way, but you fuckers made your bed, now you get to lie in it. Don't come crawling to me for sympathy.

Covid's just a hoax any way.

Wow, thanks for such an enlightening post with zero context.

When we want to assess our own risk from COVID, we need to look at the data at large and not be prey to anecdotal evidence like 'my friend's friend knows someone perfectly healthy who has died of COVID' I have highlighted for you the categories at risk.

According to the CDC’s own data, over 95% of COVID deaths had an average of 4 comorbidites (many of which were lifestyle/nutrition related). Additionally, nearly 80% of COVID hospitalizations were in overweight or obese people.

Your health is your responsibility.

 

[Jeb2020]

People unwilling to take simple steps to improve your own health while demanding that others take steps to for your health— and believe that if they don’t take the steps they’re selfish, while also believing that your unwillingness to change isn’t selfish.

A lot of crazy ideas have taken hold in the past 18 months, but one of the craziest is living a really unhealthy lifestyle but blaming others when you become sick.

https://www.cdc.gov/pcd/issues/2021/21_0123.htm

In this cross-sectional study of 540,667 adult hospitalized patients with COVID-19, 94.9% had at least 1 underlying medical condition. Hypertension and disorders of lipid metabolism were the most frequent, whereas obesity, diabetes with complication, anxiety disorders, and the total number of conditions were the strongest risk factors for severe COVID-19 illness.

 

[Jeb2020]

Yep. Same with Smallpox, Polio, Mumps, etc.

The primary efficacy endpoint of the clinical trials was mild symptom reduction. The shot was not shown to limit supposed “transmission” or confer immunity, but only reduce symptoms— with Absolute Risk Reductions of 0.7% and 1.2% respectively.

COVID didn't kill her son. He killed himself.

I guess she helped by winding him up to be a moron like herself, but by 30 you are fully responsible for realizing your parents were morons and reversing course.

Worse?

They're both nurses.

Yesterday was the highest number of cases since early May. We’re headed for another spike. I’m sure it won’t be close to as bad as the one around the holidays and hopefully won’t be as bad the one in the spring but we will see. I’m back to wearing a mask indoors in public locations.

 

[bronconick]

99.2% of deaths in June were from unvaccinated people. My concern for this whole thing is done. Odds are all the businesses and schools are going to mandate "take it or be fired" anyway by the fall.

The vaccinated will be fine. The rest are getting what they deserve. (Unless they literally could not get it)

I want to not care at this point. I'm vaccinated. My wife is vaccinated. Our parents and siblings are vaccinated. Many friends are vaccinated. But, we've got a toddler. Thanks to the unbelievably stupid, we have to continue taking the precautions that most around us can give up. Sure, small children aren't great vectors, but the chance he gets hit is definitely still higher than ours.

Yeah...their right to be stupid has robbed you of your right to feel safe. For that they should get what they are asking for. And from the sounds of it Delta is coming for them hard and fast.

Stay safe buddy.

In recent days- there have been two different cruise kick offs- one where some un-vaccinated passengers broke away from an excursion- which is very much not allowed these days (both for the ship and destination), and one where an unvaccinated woman lied about being vaccinated- and then tested positive on the ship. The latter has had a Karen video on TicTock that has been already taken down.

It's funny how Racist party members what to give corporations all of this power, until they are the ones who are hit by it.

edit- it's fascinating that people are still downplaying how deadly this has been- 600k deaths so far, with SO many actions being done somehow isn't a big deal, even when it's pretty much the #1 cause of death in the US over the past year. Somehow, we are not supposed to do anything until it's the plague or Ebola. Nobody even wants to do the calculation in their heads of the death toll had we done nothing.

You are why we still wear masks.

Although, if some ani-vaxxor parents lose a kid- I feel for the kid who had no choice.

It sucks but odds are very high the kid would have wound up just like its parents.

Laissez faire.

CPAC crowd cheers and applauds when speaker says that vaccination levels are falling short of Biden's goals.

Yea, kill themselves to make a Democratic President look bad in their own eyes.... wait, who is being hurt here? (lol)

Seriously- do they honestly think Democrats are going to think badly of the President because a bunch of Racists don't want to get a vaccine?

Honestly at this point everyone who votes for any R can DIAF. That includes pieces of shit like Susan.

drive policy to further inequity gap. Make healthcare a joke. Shun public health. Neglect infrastructure. Shit all over women’s rights. Kids in cages. Moan about any gun laws and ensure guns are a right but not the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.
And then scream about making america great again

They are going to use it as proof he was ineffectual and never met his goals. It will play to their crowd but the vaccinated aren't going to fall for it.
