Hey guys. I don't watch TV so I don't know if this has been reported, but there has been a marked up-tick in Covid-positive tests and hospitalizations over the last couple weeks, including those who have been vaccinated. Do what you will with that info. Stay safe, amigos.

It's been widely reported that the new cases are 100% unvaccinated eloi.

And now they need to be corralled, and jailed, with a brand on their foreheads so they can't wander around society.  And it'll make everyone so mad that they'll vote pro-vax and swing the country's politics forever.

I'm on the downhill side of a miserable cold. Sniffles, sneezing, sinus headache, cough. No fever. I didn't get vaxxed. 

Mrs. G got all the vaxxen, and she now has the same cold. 

Go figure.

 

BTW, and this is just an observation. Some people, when they get a cold, barricade themselves in their study and just want to be left alone, sometimes coming out to make some peppered Chicken & Stars. Other people, when they get a cold, send their suffering minions to the drug store, the WalMart, the Publix, and the in-laws for remedies. Different strokes, I guess, but it reminds me of the "My GF's Not Hungry" menu item at the burger joint...

A friend of mine caught it fairly recently. Lawyer, late 50s and in reasonably good health. Felt awful for three days. By the fourth day he was mixing concrete with a shovel.

Earlier this year, a client told me that about half the Doctors at Walter Reed refused to be vaccinated. That would've been March or April.

I'll probably be vaccinated when the terrifying Omega Omega Omega strain makes its appearance.

Messages that could have affected millions of Americans who either don’t want to get the vaccine or are hesitant to get it.

Wearing Masks After Getting Vaccinated

Some of the early messaging on the vaccine was that getting it would help reopen the economy, however, Biden and others who received the vaccine continued to act publicly as they did throughout the lockdowns. One of the most infamous examples occurred during the G7 summit, when Biden and other world leaders – all of whom had been fully vaccinated – wore masks and stood several feet apart, refusing to shake hands, even though they were outside. The disconnect between the science and the messaging was palpable. People had to wonder: What was the point of getting the vaccine if they still had to live under restrictive lockdown measures?

Pausing The Johnson & Johnson Vaccine After A Handful Of Blood Clots

Six people developed blood clots in the brain after taking the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The Biden administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention quickly called for a pause in the vaccine, directly causing support for the single-dose vaccine to plummet. As The Daily Wire previously reported, confidence in the safety of the vaccine plunged from 52% to 37% after the pause. A study quickly determined that people had a higher risk of getting the rare blood clots from contracting COVID-19 than from getting the vaccine.

Media Insistence That Only Certain Protests Would Spread COVID

When people protested the restrictive lockdown measures that cost jobs and destroyed livelihoods, the media insisted the protests were “super spreader” events that would increase COVID-19 cases. Just weeks later, when massive protests and riots broke out across the U.S. over the police-involved death of Minneapolis resident George Floyd, the media bent over backwards to claim those protests wouldn’t spread the virus. Now that people in Cuba are protesting the country’s dictatorship, the media has gone back to claiming protests spread the virus.

Kamala Harris

During the 2020 campaign, Vice President Kamala Harris said she would not trust the vaccine developed under the Trump administration.

“Well, I think that’s going to be an issue for all of us,” Harris told CNN’s Dana Bash in September. “I will say that I would not trust Donald Trump and it would have to be a credible source of information that talks about the efficacy and the reliability of whatever he’s talking about. I will not take his word for it.”

Allowing Unvaccinated Illegal Immigrants Into The Country

While the Biden administration has spent much time deriding Americans who haven’t gotten the COVID-19 vaccine, its own Department of Homeland Security said it would not enforce vaccination requirements on those entering the country illegally.

“Consistent with ICE’s long-standing sensitive locations policy, ICE does not and will not carry out enforcement operations at or near health care facilities, such as hospitals, doctors’ offices, accredited health clinics, and emergent or urgent care facilities, except in the most extraordinary of circumstances,” DHS said, even though it strongly encouraged vaccination.

California Requiring Fully Vaccinated Individuals To Wear Masks Again

California is experiencing a rise in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, so Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D-CA) administration is instituting more lockdown restrictions, even for those who are fully vaccinated. It’s yet another example of making the vaccine appear irrelevant.

Inconsistent Requirements

Throughout the pandemic, caveats and exemptions were made by the same people continuing to tell us we need to wear masks. We had to wear a mask when walking around a restaurant, but it was okay to take it off while we were seated and eating. Politicians could lower their masks to speak to the press, but had to wear it while walking around. The virus didn’t take breaks during these moments, yet we were expected to follow the contradictory guidance.

Just Who Isn’t Getting The Vaccine?

While Democrats want to appear morally superior by claiming it’s Trump supporters who are refusing to get the vaccine, the evidence doesn’t support the claim. In May, a Kaiser Family Foundation poll found that the Americans who are vaccine hesitant are not even Republicans, CNN reported at the time.

“A look at the data reveals that the vaccine hesitant group, however, are not big Trump lovers. They’re actually likely not to be Republican. Instead, many of them are people who are detached from the political process and didn’t vote for either major candidate in 2020,” CNN reported. “The most recent Kaiser poll helps illustrate that the vaccine hesitant group doesn’t really lean Republican. Just 20% of the group called themselves Republican with an additional 19% being independents who leaned Republican. The clear majority (61%) were not Republicans (41% said they were Democrats or Democratic leaning independents and 20% were either pure independents or undesignated).”

Those that have said they won’t get the vaccine, however, are 55% Republican or right-leaning independents. Further, a large percentage of African Americans have also said they are hesitant to get the vaccine, another group that is not known for being Republican.  https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-administration-claims-misinformation-on-social-media-is-creating-vaccine-hesitancy-heres-all-the-times-democrats-made-people-hesitant

Yesterday all of the cashiers at the supermarket were wearing masks again. Maybe one out of fifteen shoppers were too. tom. :dunno:

I have no issues with people wearing masks if it is their or their employers choice.

 

Spent time  in Japan in the 60's and even then the people would wear masks if they felt sick.  Never understood why our culture never adapted that.

In '59 I was in LA for the first time.  I never saw Green air that felt like acid before.  Air pollution was so common in Japan that masks were common for everything that affected lungs.

Could it be the number of cycles the tests are being run has been increased to generate more [false] positives?
