OT Coronavirus: America in chaos, News and Updates. One million Americans dead and counting

Whoa whoa, hold up a sec...
Ok, that math checks out. Carry on

 

i'd like to see your source for those numbers. i also find it funny that you think people cant get a virus and spread it after they get their shot.

 

Are you THE Jon?!! Just, whoah.

 

I'm sad this has to be pointed out to him or her, but pregnancy and disease aren't very similar. There's no such thing as mildly pregnant or asymptomatic pregnancy, you're either pregnant or you aren't. Taking a disease from potentially deadly to potentially no symptoms even if you catch it is a big deal. And the masks are until most people are vaccinated, at which point masks won't be needed. The masks aren't to protect the vaccinated person, it's to protect the people who still aren't vaccinated.

The person who tweeted that is painfully, painfully ignorant and potentially stupid (though I'd need to see more of their work to make that determination).

 

I gave this information above in a response to @PtldPlatypus post. Here's the Healthline.com information that is drawn from the most recent CDC study on the subject. There's a link to the CDC study if you want to look at the numbers in more detail:

I am simply reporting what the CDC study says. It's new information based on a study trying to address what had been an open question as to whether people who were vaccinated might simply be asymptomatic, but still capable of spreading the disease. The study showed that 90% of vaccinated people are immune to getting either symptomatic or asymptomatic Covid-19. It doesn't say, and I never said, that a small portion of vaccinated people are still capable of getting infected and, potentially, spreading the disease.

 

not the Jon I mentioned in the Door Dash thread...

 

OK, so my wife and I have had it. As noted earlier, we're still abiding by mandated standards, which, in some cases, are minimal.

 

Okay. I'm not sure why this was aimed at me. Did you have a question for me about the two of you having had it?

 

OK,then, yes. Do you believe, that by following local mandates (i.e. masks being optional in outdoor places), my wife and I may be putting others at risk?

 

I think that not getting the vaccines, if in fact you two are not, lengthen the amount of time til masks can safely stop being worn and make things at least a bit less safe for those around you. Masks are good, but the vaccines are better.

 

OK, in light of the fact that my wife and I have already been infected, I disagree, but thanks again for the response.

 

I do understand that. I'll look into it. Thanks.

Immunity from getting the disease isn't permanent or particularly long-lasting, from what I've read.

 

Go with that, then.

 

Why even ask the question, if you're not particularly interested in the answer?

 

Only the method that grants big pharma billions can produce immunity.

 

Because, sometimes I'm interested in what others may think. Is that OK?
