Popular Post milys Posted September 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 3, 2021 I am so tired of listening to stupid anti-wax morons. You're talking about your rights and whatever BS. Now it's like this, you're living in a society amongst many people who follow certain rules. While you're choosing to not get vaccinated is only not your choice. You destroy for all other people by letting the virus to mutate. The more people who choose to not get vaccinated are working against the society. You are giving the virus a much better chance to mutate and finally find a way to even get vaccinated people sick. You're a disgrace to the society and to your children and loved ones if you don't get vaccinated. BTW Your rights to choose in this case should be put in a place where the sun don't shine. We don't let murderers walk around us free, do we ? Why should we let you ? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you do make a good point, in a way, if inadvertently. There is a very strong positive correlation between those who believe in your words that 'there's a great fairy in the sky that he'll get to meet with after he dies...." and those who refuse to get vaccinated.

I should note that I'm not referring to religious claims about the natural world that can be disproved. Like the belief that the Bible says the universe is only thousands of year old and that evolution is false. Oh wait a minute, those beliefs are commonly held by those most likely to oppose covid vaccination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the country is now logging one of the world’s highest infection rates, with nearly 650 new cases daily per million people. More than half are in fully vaccinated people, underscoring the extraordinary transmissibility of the Delta variant and stoking concerns that the benefits of vaccination ebb over time. Actually, it isn't too complicated. According to facts, vaccination doesn't work seem to be working that well. Jeez. Unvaccinated people are the problem. They've had several super spreader events from schools. And, those vaccinated initially were the elderly and those at risk. The vaccines are wearing off and boosters are needed. You anti vaxxers go for anything to try and discredit the jabs. Sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not based on a google search. But the results of that google search. The hard irrefutable evidence shows that both of these physicians you referred clearly propose scientifically impossible and/or unvalidated notions. Given that there are about 1 million practicing physicians in the USA, it's inevitable that some of them will entertain scientifically unsound ideas. In additions, unless they are doing research, physicians aren't scientists. If you want authoritative views on the subject, a virologist and/or epidemiologists are the experts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? This is the guy who claimed a 100% cure rate for covid by using hydroxychloroquine. He released a study based on 40 patients. He Was a Science Star. Then He Promoted a Questionable Cure for Covid-19. The man behind Trump’s favorite unproven treatment has made a great career assailing orthodoxy. His claim of a 100 percent cure rate shocked scientists around the world. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/12/magazine/didier-raoult-hydroxychloroquine.html No study, even those few that are favorable, come close to that. He also disbelieves in Darwin's theory of evolution. https://evolutionnews.org/2012/03/the_most_produc/ No doubt he's done some distinguished science. Also some very bizarre stuff. You should look up Nikolas Tesla. An absolutely brilliant scientists. He also claimed to have conversastions with Mark Twain. Nothing remarkable in having a conversation with someone.

Thoughts? Raoult is very controversial. [He is a world leading expert for Q fever and Whipple's disease, not so much for Corona viruses. Raoult's extremely high publication rate results from his "attaching his name to nearly every paper that comes out of his institute",] these are from his entry in Wikipedia which does look suspiciously hostile to him, although citations are there for everything said about him. He is definitely an expert in microbiology, he appears to like the limelight and a lot of controversy over research he has been associated with. So if we accept his opinion on hydroxychloroquine on the basis of him being a renowned expert, what about the renowned experts who do not agree? do we dismiss them?

Those 3 are intractable public health problems that have multiple causes and to the extent that they are manageable, take time to correct. ( Anti-smoking programs have taken decades to show progress for instance.) If you have a solution to these problems other than to blame those that have them; keep your phone handy, the Nobel prize committee is trying to reach you. The difference with the non-vaccinated that they can become vaccinated with one or two trips to the clinic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
