laz Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 CDC study shows 74% of people infected in Massachusetts Covid outbreak were fully vaccinated So the article says that no deaths were reported, which is the main reason for getting vaccinated. Sure you'll have a few uncomfortable days, or not, and then get on with your life. I would like to see data as to what each individual was vaccinated with. --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 So the article says that no deaths were reported, which is the main reason for getting vaccinated. Sure you'll have a few uncomfortable days, or not, and then get on with your life. I would like to see data as to what each individual was vaccinated with. how long each had had the second shot? which vaccine ended up in the hospital? as usual, short on details, high on inflammatory reporting that drives desire to get vaccinated down. It's like its a game to the CDC Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enlight Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Here is information from the CDC itself: Outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 Infections, Including COVID-19 Vaccine Breakthrough Infections, Associated with Large Public Gatherings — Barnstable County, Massachusetts, July 2021 Interestingly, while the number of un-vaccinated people who tested positive were 26%, they only represent 20% (1 out of 5) of the people who were hospitalized. I would venture to guess because more of the un-vaccinated people are younger, have healthier immune systems, and less co-morbidities. muFreight.co A JDM Container Sharing Service from Japan to NYC Website | Instagram | Email Bessie II's Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsnils Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 As long as the vaccination keeps most that fall ill out of hospitals it's an improvement. A vaccination won't make you immortal. Without vaccination humanity would however get "filtered" so that only those with the right genetics would pass through. That's the way nature works, natural selection, Darwin at work. With the vaccinations slowing it down just means that it will take longer. Only way to really kill off the virus and the mutations totally is total isolation in small groups for several months and nobody cheating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 You have to get the right person. My first shot hurt more than the second one. The second one was administered by a super hot woman. She was really delicate. The first one was administered by a dude that looked like Boss Hog. That one hurt for days. YMMV It was a dude. He actually did a good job. Just got a little bit of a sore arm like any other vaccine I got. Still went to the gym 24 hrs later. Felt fine. Hopefully, second shot will be similar. We shall see.

boxkita Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 "Among fully vaccinated symptomatic persons, the median interval from completion of ≥14 days after the final vaccine dose to symptom onset was 86 days (range = 6–178 days)" Guess I'm masking up full-time again. We went out for dinner yesterday. nearly everyone we saw was masked up. Startling change from a month ago, where no one was masked.

boxkita Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Covid:Free Of course it is. Covid is fake news. Infosecdad got Lyme disease, like every long-hauler. Actually in downtown Seattle, you're more likely to die of metal poisoning than covid. Homicides are up drastically since police force was cut 20%.

boxkita Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Also free drugs. With the legalization of heroin and other hard drugs, addiction is up. So, we the people, have created free clinics to wean ppl off the drugs. this is done by giving them less potent versions of the drug. Perhaps we should enforce having a covid vaccination card to get free heroin? Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Been trying to convince an ex-coworker who's starting a federal government job in a month or so to get vaccinated. He has a EE from a decent school. He gets his news from the internet. Facts are not relevant. He's vitally concerned about Pres. Biden's statement about forcing federal employees to be vaccinated. I asked him if he actually read his contract and the referenced documents. He's going to be a real asset. Today's question was whether the Constitution would protect federal employees from such heavy handed tactics. Upshot . After 4 days and dozens of actual data/statistics/research/etc, he's going to pass. I sent him a link to the Darwin Awards site. He ghosted me.

If someone could make a powder version of the vaccine (and other vaccines) and mix it into the batches of heroin you could get some effective result.

He's got so many eye-opening experiences ahead, I suspect covid vaccination will be the least of his worries.

boxkita Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 so a student tested positive in another class a couple days ago. Instructor is feeling poorly so he's getting tested today. Given the inter-mixing of classes and non-mask-wearing, we might be a nice test case for the 18-29 demographic against the 50-65 demographic. Older ones are vaccinated, younger ones aren't. I'm going to get tested on the way home. Would completely suck if this got worse. last quarter with 5 days of class left. sigh Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor have they EVER before claimed that a vaccine is MORE effective than your natural antibodies from contracting a virus like they are doing with this one...
