One year of COVID, a reflection.
Just in case some of you don't know. Take a couple days off of work following your second shot. It generally tends to be a bit worse than the first one.
All the different shots are beneficial in the fact that if you do get covid they greatly decrease the severity so you stay out of the hospital. I am sure the New York Yankees are thankful for that. The luxury of Pfizer and Moderna is there increased efficacy, especially against the new variants. A recent study out of Qatar indicated Pfizer was still ~75% effective against the South African variant: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-01222-5 Given what is happening in India and Brazil, I would expect to see a bunch of new variants. Hopefully, none of them are worse than the current variants. I am expecting a booster vaccine by the end of the year to deal with the current variants.

" you know what else does that? general health and well being. i know which i prefer. " im expecting a new vaccine at least every year, if not every half year from here on out. afterall, when a movie does super well in theatres there is usually a sequel down the line. |

" oh right, and i know awhile back when i stated that the vaccine manufacturers own information is that their vaccines are not claiming to stop you from getting covid, but merely lessen the severity of the symptoms, and i was told that i was spouting lies and spreading misinformation etc etc etc too funny |
|
" " " I'm pretty sure FarmerTed here isn't claiming that vaccines are not supposed to stop you from getting covid, like what you incorrectly claimed in your first post. He is saying IF you get it, as in when you are not in the 95% who gain immunity, the severity is reduced. |

" i didn't incorrectly claim anything. i know what FarmerTed's post was and i replied to it in kind. FarmerTed stated " so lets break this down. the shots are the vaccines. so if you get covid, "THEY", the vaccines, greatly decrease the severity so you stay out of the hospital. yes FarmerTed is saying that the vaccines do not stop you from getting covid. or rather, if you're gotten the vaccines you can still get covid, as has happened a large amount of times already i edited my original reply because i didn't understand what your post meant at first, but now i see what you were saying. sorry it just couldn't register to me that someone could question the very clear statement there Last edited by xMustard#3403 on May 20, 2021, 9:02:10 PM

AstraZeneca hmm, isn't that the big pharma that signed an exclusive contract with Oxford University for their vaccine patent, when they (the Uni) initially promised to create a vaccine that would be open source, available for reproduction by all that could do so (meaning ANY country, including the third world poor countries)? But I guess they must have had their fingers crossed at the time... behind their back, it's the oldest trick, and it always works. Talking about humanitarianism of... big philanthropists and
Gee, I wonder why everybody's so obsessed with the vaccines? Especially all the ruling governments around the world, could it be because governments do the deals? And why nobody's talking about medicines that could help solve (safer, easier and... cheaper) the problem? Only recently the European Medicines Agency (official body of the EU) recommended eight different pharmaceuticals for approval (it's on the official site for anyone interested).

" because people don't want to put in work or take responsibility for their health. its much easier to pop a pill or push the pin instead of changing your lifestyle, diet, stress levels, etc. cancer as a problem is a perfect example of the failure of the medical community and its "science" but maybe a bit too off topic here. people don't understand actual health. even if they did, its too much work for them to be bothered. and ya know what? thats their choice. their health, their responsibility. |

Huh. Ya might think this thread would be humming with all the juicy tidbits revealed in Fauci's emails.

"I would be surprised of a single example of someone unironically expecting that. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.
