I live in the stupid state of Australia so Covid seems to be thriving here after the mock lockdowns that were put in to place.
Other states that had proper lockdowns are already coming out of theirs Covid free, or at least close to.

State of Georgia reported 3588 Covid cases today and only 438 vaccinations administered.

Safe to say about 35 of those covid cases will die and none of those people who got vaccinated, at least because of the covid or the vaccination.

I know an anecdote does not a statistic make, but yikes, that doesn't give me warm fuzzies. How were their symptoms?
His pfizer is cold/flu like. Not sure on the others.

From the news tonight I think they said delta is 1000x greater viral load versus OG alpha covid.

I still wear a mask in Public. It seems to bother some folks. I am not sure why. I went to the Junkyard today. And the Gentleman that runs it said I didn't need to wear a mask cuz He ain't got the Pandemic. The Tow Truck driver went back to his Truck and put on his mask after He said that. He didn't want to catch the Pandemic either I guess.

currently watching a friend completely melt down on social media, in panic over a family member in the ICU with the rona......

After spending 15 months of watching that same person completely melt down on social media over freedums™ lost, media hype, schools this and that, amateur science, and overhype about the rona

It's everything I can muster to not just show him his own words.


...............aaaannd his dad just died

Maybe the people aren't being killed by COVID, but are being killed by something else??

The vaccine won't protect you from something else will it.

Things they don't know about the vaccine yet

1. it keeps you from getting severe covid
2. it's fucking free
3. if it was dangerous it would get pulled
4. it vaccinates human beings, of which you are one

but really, how can anyone be expected to know these things

Well, that information is not readily available... and let's face it - science is complicated and we can't be expected to understand the above bullet points, really.

I have no idea where I am
What's the over/under on how many people who say they don't like needles have tattoos/piercings?

I've got 50%
No ink here, I am pretty goddamn consistent with my particular phobias.

Now, on the other hand I’d bet there are just as many people covered in tattoos that claim they are concerned about what they put in their body as there are smokers who won’t get vaccinated for the same reasons.
