The decision not to vax is very EASY to justify............... you don't have a clue about any long term effects........... I had Covid and don't need the vaccine.....end of story......take your you may die somewhere else...... I could get stuck by lightning tomorrow unless I cowered in fear and stayed inside with my mask on.......if you want the jab then feel free to get it

Wow, you mean - you look at something from more than just one angle? How is that even possible. Mind blown
You nailed it in fewer words than I can. I think the answer, as it is for most things, is to educate people and RAISE THE LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR - then let people live their lives and make their own decisions.

Seems like whether I wanted to get the vaccine or not, it wouldn't be the only decision I'd be making.
I was thinking this. I'm not sure what happened to "my body, my rights"? Guess you can make any decision you like, as long as it's theirs.

I told her COVID won't kill you unless you believe it will. Don't live in fear.
That's how I feel about it. Nobody will change my mind.

And where are the studies that show any benefit of taking the jab after you're recovered from Covid? That whole topic seems to be skipped over by the media, medical community, etc. I "outlived" the Covid risk.. so why should I induce risk by getting the vaccine?

“Conclusion:
The mass vaccination hype will undoubtedly enter history as the most reckless experiment in the history of medicine. It will be cited as the unequivocal proof of how overuse or misuse of man-made antimicrobials leads to antimicrobial resistance, regardless of whether the antimicrobial is an antibiotic or an antibody administered through passive immunization or elicited via active immunization. Mass vaccination campaigns conducted in the middle of a viral pandemic will, for generations to come, become the most sobering example of the boundaries of human intervention in nature in general and of the boundaries of conventional vaccinology in particular. This irrational experiment will unambiguously highlight the clear-cut limitations of conventional vaccine approaches. It will convincingly illustrate that – unlike natural acute self-limiting infection or disease – ‘modern’ technologies alone do not suffice to develop vaccines that are capable of preventing viral transmission or immune escape. For that matter, even ‘modern’ vaccines will not allow conventional B or T cell-directed antigens to generate herd immunity when massively administered in the heat of a pandemic of a highly mutable virus. Because of the disastrous consequences the current mass vaccination campaign will entail, I cannot imagine that the word ‘vaccine’ will continue to persist in the medical vade-mecum. In order to highlight the short-comings of all vaccines eliciting conventional B- or T cell-centered immune responses I propose to coin a new term for these vaccines and refer to them as ‘conditionally immune protection-inducing formulations’ (CIPIFs).”

Fascinating read with some good advice for both vaxxed and unvaxxed. I’m wondering if Covid will just slowly and drastically reduce the population over the coming years as it grows stronger and more deadly due to the vaccines?

Our Most Reliable Pandemic Number Is Losing Meaning
A new study suggests that almost half of those hospitalized with COVID-19 have mild or asymptomatic cases.
At least 12,000 Americans have already died from COVID-19 this month, as the country inches through its latest surge in cases. But another worrying statistic is often cited to depict the dangers of this moment: The number of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 in the United States right now is as high as it has been since the beginning of February. It’s even worse in certain places: Some states, including Arkansas and Oregon, recently saw their COVID hospitalizations rise to higher levels than at any prior stage of the pandemic. But how much do those latter figures really tell us?
From the start, COVID hospitalizations have served as a vital metric for tracking the risks posed by the disease. Last winter, this magazine described it as “the most reliable pandemic number,” while Vox quoted the cardiologist Eric Topol as saying that it’s “the best indicator of where we are.” On the one hand, death counts offer finality, but they’re a lagging signal and don’t account for people who suffered from significant illness but survived. Case counts, on the other hand, depend on which and how many people happen to get tested. Presumably, hospitalization numbers provide a more stable and reliable gauge of the pandemic’s true toll, in terms of severe disease. But a new, nationwide study of hospitalization records, released as a preprint today (and not yet formally peer reviewed), suggests that the meaning of this gauge can easily be misinterpreted—and that it has been shifting over time.
If you want to make sense of the number of COVID hospitalizations at any given time, you need to know how sick each patient actually is. Until now, that’s been almost impossible to suss out. The federal government requires hospitals to report every patient who tests positive for COVID, yet the overall tallies of COVID hospitalizations, made available on various state and federal dashboards and widely reported on by the media, do not differentiate based on severity of illness. Some patients need extensive medical intervention, such as getting intubated. Others require supplemental oxygen or administration of the steroid dexamethasone. But there are many COVID patients in the hospital with fairly mild symptoms, too, who have been admitted for further observation on account of their comorbidities, or because they reported feeling short of breath. Another portion of the patients in this tally are in the hospital for something unrelated to COVID, and discovered that they were infected only because they were tested upon admission. How many patients fall into each category has been a topic of much speculation. In August, researchers from Harvard Medical School, Tufts Medical Center, and the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System decided to find out.
Researchers have tried to get at similar questions before. For two separate studies published in May, doctors in California read through several hundred charts of pediatric patients, one by one, to figure out why, exactly, each COVID-positive child had been admitted to the hospital. Did they need treatment for COVID, or was there some other reason for admission, like cancer treatment or a psychiatric episode, and the COVID diagnosis was merely incidental? According to the researchers, 40 to 45 percent of the hospitalizations that they examined were for patients in the latter group.
The authors of the paper out this week took a different tack to answer a similar question, this time for adults. Instead of meticulously looking at why a few hundred patients were admitted to a pair of hospitals, they analyzed the electronic records for nearly 50,000 COVID hospital admissions at the more than 100 VA hospitals across the country. Then they checked to see whether each patient required supplemental oxygen or had a blood oxygen level below 94 percent. (The latter criterion is based on the National Institutes of Health definition of “severe COVID.”) If either of these conditions was met, the authors classified that patient as having moderate to severe disease; otherwise, the case was considered mild or asymptomatic.
The study found that from March 2020 through early January 2021—before vaccination was widespread, and before the Delta variant had arrived—the proportion of patients with mild or asymptomatic disease was 36 percent. From mid-January through the end of June 2021, however, that number rose to 48 percent. In other words, the study suggests that roughly half of all the hospitalized patients showing up on COVID-data dashboards in 2021 may have been admitted for another reason entirely, or had only a mild presentation of disease.
This increase was even bigger for vaccinated hospital patients, of whom 57 percent had mild or asymptomatic disease. But unvaccinated patients have also been showing up with less severe symptoms, on average, than earlier in the pandemic: The study found that 45 percent of their cases were mild or asymptomatic since January 21. According to Shira Doron, an infectious-disease physician and hospital epidemiologist at Tufts Medical Center, in Boston, and one of the study’s co-authors, the latter finding may be explained by the fact that unvaccinated patients in the vaccine era tend to be a younger cohort who are less vulnerable to COVID and may be more likely to have been infected in the past.
The idea behind the study and what it investigates is important, says Graham Snyder, the medical director of infection prevention and hospital epidemiology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, though he told me that it would benefit from a little more detail and nuance beyond oxygenation status. But Daniel Griffin, an infectious-disease specialist at Columbia University, told me that using other metrics for severity of illness, such as intensive-care admissions, presents different limitations. For one thing, different hospitals use different criteria for admitting patients to the ICU.
One of the important implications of the study, these experts say, is that the introduction of vaccines strongly correlates with a greater share of COVID hospital patients having mild or asymptomatic disease. “It’s underreported how well the vaccine makes your life better, how much less sick you are likely to be, and less sick even if hospitalized,” Snyder said. “That’s the gem in this study.”
“People ask me, ‘Why am I getting vaccinated if I just end up in the hospital anyway?’” Griffin said. “But I say, ‘You’ll end up leaving the hospital.’” He explained that some COVID patients are in for “soft” hospitalizations, where they need only minimal treatment and leave relatively quickly; others may be on the antiviral drug remdesivir for five days, or with a tube down their throat. One of the values of this study, he said, is that it helps the public understand this distinction—and the fact that not all COVID hospitalizations are the same.
But the study also demonstrates that hospitalization rates for COVID, as cited by journalists and policy makers, can be misleading, if not considered carefully. Clearly many patients right now are seriously ill. We also know that overcrowding of hospitals by COVID patients with even mild illness can have negative implications for patients in need of other care. At the same time, this study suggests that COVID hospitalization tallies can’t be taken as a simple measure of the prevalence of severe or even moderate disease, because they might inflate the true numbers by a factor of two. “As we look to shift from cases to hospitalizations as a metric to drive policy and assess level of risk to a community or state or country,” Doron told me, referring to decisions about school closures, business restrictions, mask requirements, and so on, “we should refine the definition of hospitalization. Those patients who are there with rather than from COVID don’t belong in the metric.”
Love the resdemivir drop they threw in there. why would someone in a hospital be on that ****, it doesn't work and makes you sterile amirite?

saying that covid hospitalization cases are as high as they were in february is the same as saying vaccinations are a total FAIL-i thought vaccinations were supposed to prevent getting severe covid symptoms????
i call bullshyt-- there is no evidence that people who have had covid get it 2nd time... with all the people who have had covid i find it virtually impossible that covid hospitalization rates are as high as they were in february-and if they truly are then vaccines are proving to be worthless, imo.

Have y'all read 1984? and if it's been a while, maybe go get it and read it again.
By chapter 1 you'll see how it is what we're dealing with.
This morning it dawned on me... you know how you watch the news and we often call it the "bad news" cause they only report 'scary' and 'depressing' things?
This morning I realized that's not true. The "fluff" pieces, the happy little bits were about our fellow comrades who are good compliant little citizens. The ones who are doing so well and happy with their vaccines and masks and making these positive contributions to society per big brother's instruction.
The social conditioning is mind blowing. It's as if 80% of the population has the mental capacity of a toddler.

We are in a weird amalgamation of several dystopian novels. 1984 is definitely my favorite of the bunch. The book that is claimed to have some influence over Orwell called Road To Serfdom by F.A. Hayek is actually a book that greatly influenced me as well. Highly recommend to any readers in here.

When I first started thinking about the Two Minutes Hate, I thought about CNN/Social Media etc inspiring the TDS, BLM riots, etc. seemed obvious to me. Then recently when the college football games broke out in "**** biden" chants, I thought wow, that's the Two Minutes Hate again, in the other direction. we just need to get media and govt out of our lives. it's screwing with people in both directions.

my wife and I have had many extremely direct contacts/exposures to folks who went down with covid in the past few weeks. by direct, I mean touching, hugging, being coughed on, and by exposure I mean they did test positive and di dhave the normal symptoms of loss of taste, fevers etc. So far our antibodies seem to be working as we have not been sick since March

CDC says there is no evidence that covid-19 causes a loss of infertility and goes on to recommend vaccination for those who are wanting/trying to get pregnant.
what if it turns out they are wrong?

FDA is uncertain if this claim and do not specify either way. I guess depends who your doctor reads is what will be recommended.

tinfoil hat time: I would also question if the disease itself could have fertility issues.
we know some of the minds behind wuhan, and we definitely know some of the minds behind the vax (like Bill Gates) and we know that these people are pro population control.
I'm almost 40 and my wife is 10 years older than me, so we won't be testing my fertility any time soon. someone else here needs to take one for the team.

my inference is that the auto immune response can hit organs scaled based on blood flow since myocarditis is the most common organ issue. it should be an immune response attacking them, but I'm not sure what mechanic drives it
so I think any organ can get messed up. even baby making ones. especially if they weren't in good shape to begin with. bpc 157 organ repair your vaccinated

I worked for 7 years in a warehouse freezer, 8-10 hours a day throwing heavy cases. I’d be stupid if I didn’t think it’s part of the reasons why I’m infertile. Oh, and my as* is old.
