Covid Vaccine thread

It seems Rand Paul liked to play the spread misinformation game. He came right out and told UofL med students that spreading misinformation to gain a competitive advantage is a great tactic: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other...jb7?li=BBnbfcL

it's called turning into a troll. when you throw up your arms and say fuck it. because ppl won't meet you. it can always get worse. and it really pains me to ally with ppl like rand paul. I mean wtf has this world come to.

[nullnor]

did you know when it 5 degrees out with a wind chill of -15, when you wrap yourself in a blanket, the cats look at you like rookies watching Gordie Howe wrap tape around his hockey stick.

[nullnor]

honest to god when you quote war game like that, dude that's like my favorite quote of all time. we're cool man, i'm sorry.

I gotta go find my cat before she gets frostbite in her ears. peace

[nullnor]

I found her in the abandoned house next door. cats don't like it when you fetch them in their 'secret' hiding spot. but when it's so cold out I make exceptions. I didn't know they could still hide in the house anymore.

I find communicating with cats easier than humans. but it is still based on the same principles. it takes will, effort, trust, and determination.

[nullnor]

it's kind of cool. you have to explain to the other cats you have to go look for the one that is missing and to stay here. like you are climbing Mount Everest. and everyone needs to stay together.

Walgreens Preparing for First Stores to Offer Free N95 Masks Friday
Walgreens is preparing to begin distributing free N95 masks this week, but when exactly can customers expect to be able to get one and how will they know which stores have them?

According to the Illinois-based pharmacy chain, the first stores to offer up free masks are expected to begin distribution as early as Friday.

"We expect the first stores to begin offering masks on Friday, January 28 and will continue on a rolling basis in the days and weeks following," a spokesperson for the company told NBC 5 in a statement. "Participating stores will have signage indicating mask availability."

so it's been a big journey for me. i never thought i'd end up in the place i did. it's certainly not the path i set out for myself.

microscopes are always a problem. you never want to be put under one. whether you are looking at porn at work and worried about human resources firing you. or you are PONTUS and having the world questioning vaccines.

i know i never questioned the FLU vaccine before, EVER. but now i do. and thank god i am not a parent. after everything that has happened and the trust that has been lost by a lot of average ppl. after being put under the 'microscope'. the human resource of the world. i really wouldn't trust any injection.

but we brought this upon ourselves. by our lack of true regulations and oversight.

i will never let myself or my four legged children ever be vaccinated. it's a racket. plain and simple.

you guys failed me

[nullnor]

you guys don't notice this but every time you bring a pet to a vet they will ask first about any vaccinations it has had or not. the vaccinators.

your cat could be dying from any number of problems. and undiagnosed urinary tract infection. or god forbid hyperthyroidism, or it drank antifreeze and is about to die, i've unfortunately had all of these things happen.

but the first question is always vaccination. this is a problem.

The final nail in the coffin of fools. I wonder how many people ended up dead because they believed Former Guy and the other ivermectin promoters.

[Kevin Seitzer]

But I was told...

While true, this isn't whole truth, either. Ivermectin has been used a lot overseas, especially in poorer areas, since it is low cost and fairly easily available. In addition, there were at least two studies, one in particular, that went to pre-print showing good benefits. The "one in particular" - showing reduction in death rates of over 90% - was by an Egyptian professor and has been pulled from pre-print due to data/plagarism irregularities.

While I believe everyone who can be vaccinated should be - I got the Pfizer as soon as I could, and will get the booster as soon as I can - I also believe the FDA's behavior relative to ivermectin is irresponsible, at best. Politicizing it the way they have will discourage research into what might be part of a productive response for those who can not get vaccinated. Ivermectin may not be the answer, but it could be part of the answer, and no researcher who has to live off grants will dare touch it now in the US.

I am not sure what you are referring to. All my childhood vaccinations worked. I got none of the diseases that I got vaccinated for.

Regarding Covid. I got it early before vaccinations came out. Then got vaxed and boosted. Have walked in freedom from fear as well as been covid free ever since. My wife was on the same path, but could not get the booster (doctor recommended against it as conflicted with other meds. As well as she had some antibodies built up). She got covid for the second time. She was pretty sick for about 2 weeks. Nothing like the first time. We both believe her shots and antibodies saved her life. Probably mine too.

Maybe they ask about the vaccinations so unvaccinated cats don't spread the diseases?

Correct, the same reason why you have to have your kids vaccinated before they go to school.

This is not new or all that surprising.

Any logical analysis would lead to the conclusion that this is a good thing for health.
