    How was it? Did it take longer or didn't add that much extra time?

    I mean, it was the Winterhawks so nobody was really breaking down the door. The line moved just fine and didn't add any time at all though.

    No, actually. It's far better to have people like that ignorantly get vaccinated than refuse vaccination.

    Just post the numbers.

    Or if you were going to post about it, this would be better.

    We don't even know the circumstances of General Powell's death. We don't know if he contracted COVID or if he had a possible adverse reaction to a booster or if he even have a booster. We don't know if the vaccine he had "wore off" or what. Not a lot of info out there.

    He could have died with COVID instead of being a COVID death, but that's how they count COVID deaths.

    Isn't the J&J totally different from the mRNA vaccines? Seeing as there were more problems with J&J to begin with, this seems odd.

    well I was thinking maybe Andrew Wiggins would have been the first sports athlete to pull off a fake vaccination card.

    No, it isn't. Covid has to be a contributing factor to the death to be counted.

    If you fall out of an airplane and splat on the ground, and you happen to have covid at the time, you aren't counted as a covid death.

    You have to wait for the NTSB report, which can take years to complete. Therefore no plane crashes are counted as covid deaths so far.

    Also any decent pilot would put it on autopilot while he hacks up a lung.

    And none of that changes anything about what I said. What you are doing is making every effort to dissuade people from getting vaccinated.

    Not cool.

    No, I encourage everyone to get vaccinated. I think it's a good idea.

    Sure. But your actions (overwhelmingly vaccine negative) encourage them not to.

    That's why people call you out on it.

    People shouldn't look at the world through rose colored lenses. A more honest and open discussion is healthy for the vaccine hesitant. I've always been open about my reservations and I still chose to get vaccinated.

    By trying to filter information or push propaganda, you're only hurting your cause and cause more skepticism versus me, someone who discusses things openly

    Reposting propaganda isn't the same thing as 'discussing things openly'.

    I post from multiple spectrums. Current news and developments.

    Not my fault if people filter out a certain POV through their preconceived biases.

    I'm not trying to filter anything. I'm calling you out for pushing overwhelmingly negative vaccine information (you are actively being a filter which is pushing an antivax agenda). If you were neutral about it you would be posting overwhelmingly positive vaccine information because the positive impacts have been many orders of magnitude more positive than any negative outcomes.

    You are being part of the problem. Your actions are very possibly hurting people.

    I just want to make sure you are aware of that.
