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

I didn't take this as a harsh criticism of you. Perhaps we should ask him.

 

You are the Dennis Rodman of this forum.

 

And here we go again with the flu-season.

Getting flu with Covid doubles risk of death, says UK health chief

Both flu and Covid-19 will circulate this winter, warns head of UK Health Security Agency

 

Got my flu shot a couple weeks ago.

 

Where did this goofy thing that, “it’s not a vaccine, it’s an immunity booster”, come from? I see that parroted time and again in comments on vaccine articles. I feel like going, “Psst, hey that’s what vaccines do”.

 

each person hears things how they want.

 

There's that and there's the fact that it's often difficult to tell on an internet forum just what people intend.

 

"Psst, vaccines used to confer immunity."

Why did CDC change its definition for ‘vaccine’?

Before the change, the definition for “vaccination” read, “the act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease.” Now, the word “immunity” has been switched to “protection.” The term “vaccine” also got a makeover.

The CDC’s definition changed from “a product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease” to the current “a preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases.”

 

Indeed. Immunity means you won't get it and spread it to others. Protection doesn't.

 

That’s what I assumed was behind it; this idea that immunity means perfect, lifetime ability to not be infected by a disease. But that notion is just a misunderstanding of what “immunity” means from a biological standpoint. The immune system is a collection of biological cells and functions that our bodies have developed to resist bacteria, viruses and other agents that cause disease. Vaccines basically provide instructions to the immune system so that it can prepare for better defense when it encounters an invader that it doesn’t have information about. The protection is never perfect because our individual immune systems vary in their effectiveness and health, and because some viruses and bacteria are better than others at mutating and avoiding the defensive information that the vaccines provide. Immunity provided by vaccines against most, if not all, diseases fade over time. Even vaccines against polio and measles aren’t perfect in their efficacy. If the CDC changed its definition of vaccines, it was to make it more accurate.

 

I have not brought much to this thread, because I haven’t done as much studying or research as most on here……but this will be my last time I click on this thread, and I’m sure most don’t care.
My cousin just died from COVID this morning….. unvaccinated shit head. Leaves 2 kids in elementary school and a stay at home wife behind…..
This now brings my total to 4 family members and close friends who have passed.

GET VACCINATED AND WEAR A FUCKING MASK! QUIT FUCKING WITH OTHER PEOPLE LIVES!!!!
If you are still fighting this, maybe losing people in your life will open your eyes…..if you are STILL fighting this though, I doubt it.

 

Good point until they make an Immunity seatbelt there’s no way I’m wearing simply a Protection seatbelt. That’s bullshit

 

The hoops people will go through to try to invalidate this vaccine is simply pathetic.

 

sorry for those kids and your loss bro...sucks when stubborness leaves a death in it's wake

 

Sorry, HCP. It's tough to lose a loved one to any disease, but losing one to Covid when it's so avoidable, is just awful.

 

immunity doesn't mean you can't transfer an airborne virus...you can touch something and carry the virus to someone else's life without knowing it...covid is not something we own as individuals...it's everywhere, vaccinated or not...that's the difference between airborne pandemics and other virus's ....you can transfer it by just not washing your hands and touching shit....people are so uninformed about the fact that we're all living with this shit floating around the air and landing in random places...it's not going to change with a shot...your chances of survival will change with a shot..and the world hasn't faced something this severe in over a hundred years...it's not going away unless we all join forces to stop it from incubating and using us as hosts...which is the frustrating part of people refusing to join the fight and thinking they'll stave it off on their own
