    I don’t know if this is in response to my post, but just to be clear, I have zero love for political hacks who try to use a pandemic for political gain. DeSantis, Trump and all of their ilk have a lot of death on their hands.

    I was just pointing out that sterilizing immunity is a thing.

    Word. I did think of writing my post after seeing yours, but I didn't respond to you because I got what you were saying, and therefore I didn't want to direct this at you. You just reminded me that Ron sucks, and I spontaneously needed to say it. Haha

    Not “supposedly”. This is the problem. It’s one thing to question opinions but we need people to accept and admit goddamn facts.

    The CDC isn't tracking breakthrough infections.

    The vaccine doesn’t “supposedly make the symptoms more mild”. That what you wrote. The vaccine DOES make the symptoms more mild or removes them altogether.

    Well, that would be good if it works perfectly then.

    It's good even though it works imperfectly.

    It would be perfect if it worked perfectly. Nobody has ever claimed it was. And it doesn't need to be.

    This is the kind of bullshit I was talking about before.

    Mask mandates back. Vaccine passports are here. Impending lockdowns on the horizon.

    Vaccines still under emergency use authorization only.

    Covid still infecting vaccinated, who can spread easily to others. CDC stopped tracking breakthrough cases, but now passing public policy (extending eviction moratorium)

    Everything is still fluid. COVID is unpredictable, what's good one day isn't enough the next.

    The recent data the CDC released was bullshit. From using outbreak data from 4th of July parties in a gay party mecca in Massachusetts to justify returning mask mandates, to publishing hospitalization stats of breakthrough cases with an unreliable data set, there's not much you can trust out there at the word of the experts.

    No. The vaccines are the answer.

    Everything else you just said is bullshit.

    Just more bullshit trying to convince people not to vaccinate.

    Disgraceful.

    I am vaccinated.

    I just don't believe the experts at their word. I also believe that their efficacy was and still is overexaggerated.

    Mask mandates are back?

    Vaccine passports are here?

    The vaccines are still on emergency use authorization?

    Covid can still infect the vaccinated?

    The vaccinated who are infected with covid can still spread the infection?

    The CDC stopped tracking breakthrough infections?

    The CDC extended the eviction moratorium?

    Covid is unpredictable?


    Those are all statements you are classifying as "bullshit". Which they are not. Which makes what you are saying full of shit.

    Well you aren't qualified to cross them. You're out of your depth, and your ignorant questions and accusations could cause real harm.

    Just like the rest of the vaccinated antivaxers who's children spread measles in our country.

    And you're not arguing in good faith anyway.
