LOL! This is coming from the guy who says a trip to the emergency room, but not requiring admittance, is a success story for the vax.
Don't try to explain the obvious to them. They have an agenda to try to support.
One thing with the seatbelt analogy is this:Seatbelts is the best analogy I've heard. Wearing one doesn't guarantee you will not get injured, it just helps a lot. Vaccines, particularly covid ones, are sometimes getting beaten by Delta and whatever variant is on the horizon but they are a lot better than not wearing the seat belt. Here is just one credible source. (ps. NO to vaccine mandates. It is possible to be OK with the vaccine and against mandates.)
New COVID charts show hospitalization, death rates based on vaccine status
The unvaccinated are far more likely than the fully vaccinated to become hospitalized or die.bringmethenews.com
Like you disregarding the fact that the vast majority of people will have zero to mild reactions to the China virus. But ya gotta mask and vax mandate everyone.....

Even if the case count increases, it proves the vaccine works. "All cases are mild". It's a shame we live in a hyper-partisan era where there has clearly been political and monetary incentives to push narratives one way or another. Other countries haven't had that issue. People need to start looking at the vaccine as something other than a vaccine and consider it more of a pre-emptive therapeutic.
I'm not sure we disagree. Covid is a weird pandemic. 94% of the deaths are people 50 years and above and 77% are 65 and above. Occasionally a younger person gets really sick but not at a pandemic level. I'm still mystified that our govt wants to force vaccinations on younger people but that is where we are. Gotta protect the vulnerable and 96% of those over 65 have gotten at least one shot. People with pre-existing conditions should get the shot and I assume they have. But forcing people to quit their jobs so Biden can try to act like he is doing something other than surrendering to the Taliban, ruining the economy, letting AOC run his agenda, etc is too much. But his son does create some "great" art.
I didn’t see where anyone got “sick”. Just says mild symptoms. 93-94% is actually really good (double the effectiveness of some years of flu vaccine) and much better than what they’re seeing in real world scenarios. It probably has to do with the younger population on board the ship.
This is what has pissed me off the most about the entire pandemic. The politicizing of therapeutics and mitigation measures by the media and self serving politicians (and Fauci) has made this thing much worse that it needed to be. We’re going to pay for it for a long time.
Fauci is a lot like many people in academia that I know…their important concern is their own legacy….critical thinking has been thrown out the window due to politicization from both sides of this.
Your question contains the answer. The fender benders are not the problem. You wear that seatbelt for that catastrophic accident when you get T-boned, or roll the car. You don't know if they will occur. Same with Covid, you don't take the vaccine because of a mild reaction, you take it for a mortal one that you don't know if it will occur.
With the vaccine only 100 mild cases out of 1,600 people. Without the vaccine there could be hundreds infected and many serious cases, and some deaths. A complete success. You are grasping for straws to show that vaccination is bad.
The data is in the hands of the Royal Navy and U.S. Navy they had Covid, pre-variant, pre-vaccine, infect ship loads of sailors. They only have to compare infection rates and severity. We are just guessing, but they know.
I understand what you’re saying. My personal position is that I’m 99.5% certain that I won’t have a “mortal one”. The numbers of death are so astronomically small that I don’t even think twice about covid. After 2 unmasked years and close proximity to thousands of people, I feel I have absolutely nothing to worry about.
No way. Not with that group of people.....
It is scary but I actually agree with you on something. Unfortunately, our govt has made this mandatory. Voluntary yes, forced vaccinations, NO.
You are a fool. COVID isn't killing any of these young, fit military people. 99.9 percent survivable. Now, if Cuomo started an outbreak in a seniors' home, it would kill many of the fully vaccinated seniors as proven by Secretary Powell.
The media is owned by people like George Soros….they are left wing to the core….they will run intreference
about what? I don't understand the drive to make Fauci a bad guy. Just like I don't understand the need to push the narrative that the vaccine doesn't help or is actually causing more infection than if we went to herd mentality. What or whom do you think that helps?
What a pathetic line of tweets. From idiot Rand Paul, to "no one could have expected they would fly planes into buildings" Rice to the other nit wits. Biden to blame for every Afghan crime. No wait, Biden to blame for not getting all Afghans out. Which is it cmore?
Why didn’t you answer his question? @cmore79 is talking about gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab. C’mon man... you know damn well what he’s talking about.
You know what my question is in reference to. Did fauci lie under oath, in your opinion?
I’d prefer he kept the rapists over there. Wouldn’t you?
I don't know and I don't care. It is a meaningless issue that your side believes means a whole lot and you don't even understand what is meant by the concept.
No it is tiring to read all these posts transferring crap from social media. If I wanted to read the bone heads posting on social media like they actually have insights or know something, I would go there to read that crap. You guys sure like looking for sm trash. How about the melodramatics "so it begins". Get a life.
