• you can 'STILL' get covid

    Even if you get a shot and wear a mask you can 'STILL' get

    People are wearing the mask around here (they vary from
    bandanas, scarves, simple paper ones, to some that look like
    the N95s), but what I've noticed is that people are not doing
    the distancing as much anymore. Even the people on the news
    shows now sit closer together, reporters interviewing people
    nolonger use long boom microphones and just stand right next to
    the people they want to talk to. Tv shows with audiences fill
    every seat, no one wears masks, and show guests hug or shake
    hands with the host (eg Tonight Show with Stephen Colbert).

    So it seems to me that the verdict of what to do is still all
    over the map and some people have decided that having the covid
    jab is good enough.

    Most people here in Utah don't even bother with masks, there are a few, at my company many people are refusing the shots and those people have to mask up all day, I have my shots and don't wear a mask.
    Most people here no longer social distance at stores and public places, the stores finally took out the stupid one way isle floor markers that nobody followed anyway, that was the stupidest things making the isles one way.
    Utah has setup monoclonal centers in several locations that are proving to be very effective against covid.

    Let's go Brandon.

    I think people just want to go back to living their lives the way things were before Covid. Nothing wrong with that. How people deal with Covid or don't deal with it is their own choice.

    As long as Democrats are in full control things will never get back to normal. and as long as Republicans sit on their asses and let Democrats get away with all they're getting away with now Democrats will keep gaining more power.

    A lot of the people protesting are already vaccinated, it's the mandate that's the issue for a good number of people.
    and another good percentage of the protesters have already had covid and have t-cell antibodies that are better than the vaccines.
    Joe Bidens mandate may be unconstitutional and ileagle, I go with the "My body my choice" this isn't like the vaccines of old, we have no idea if the vaccine is truly safe as it's only been around a short time.

    he actually did do a lot. he locked down our borders which they called him a xenophobe. he talked about medicines that may work that we have found out do work and they mocked him. he also called out the country responsible and they bitched about that. he also got the ball rolling on vaccines. he got ventilators being produced, he got the medical supplies our country needed.

    trump did a lot.

    people shouldnt be forced to take an experimental vaccine. especially someone like me with anti bodies. it makes no sense.

    I think locking down the ecconomy was a bad idea, and I think the Biden administration refusing to acknowledge thereputics and the fact that people who have already had covid are better protected than those who got the vax.
    People are getting fed up.

    I had dust and hay particles all over me by the time I was finished. The part covered by the mask was better off, though.

    I certainly recommend them because you breathe less dust with them.

    Nightfox


    I published an article from The Athlantic no long ago in which it was specified that people go develops
    natural immunity against a certain varian are still better protected against other variants (ie delta)
    than people who takes the vaccine.

    The conclussion of the article was that you should take the vaccine but not to place that much faith in
    it.

    Sad to see that article went ignored :-(

    Actually I think it is officially accepted that the range of variants covered by the vaccines which are
    being distributed is not that great. It is just that people is not talking much about it.

    Our bodies begin to produce the necessary antibodies as soon as
    it detects a virus. Sometimes the body can deal with the
    invader very well, and we don't become too uncomfortable. In
    any case, as soon as we become well, our bodies can deal with a
    repeat of that strain immediately. If not, and a new variant
    surfaces, ... rinse, repeat.

    ? The point was if someone has natural antibodies, their antibodies
    would only be against whatever strain they caught.

    Not necessairly. The data that we have is showing that natural immunity
    is effective against the variants.

    But this is why the COVID "vaccine" isn't a vaccine. With an actual
    vaccine, you are getting injected with a weak/dead virus load. Your
    body figures out how to neutralize it so that when you get the real
    thing, it's ready.

    The COVID not-vaccine doesn't do that. It "programs" your cells to make
    a specific antibody - effective only against the strain that it programmed
    your cells to handle.

    Remember, the COVID not-vaccine has been in research for decades now and
    they have NEVER had a success. But the Lefties want us to believe that
    they got it right this time.

    The vaccines are supposed to protect against multiple strains.

    Again, not necessairly. Polio - yes. Smallpox - yes. Common flu - no.
    That's why they want you to get a flu shot every year.

    I don't know what you mean about the vaccines being useless in that case..

    You are caught up in the Left's redefinition of "vaccine".

    All of us have in our minds a definition of "vaccine". So the
    Propaganda Ministry pushes something that they call a "vaccine". So we
    assume that it matches the definition that we have in our heads.

    The problem is that it doesn't.

    Then a couple weeks ago, they had the CDC (and other Leftie-controlled
    sites) change the definition to match the definition of "vaccine" that
    they've been pushing.

    Why would your boss think you have COVID ? I'm curious.

    I don't know about Denn, but that's why I won't bring smoked whitefish
    to work for lunch (I love smoked fish and have been eating it for
    years).

    Boss: What's that awful smell?
    Me: *swallowing my current mouthful of tasty smoked fish* I don't smell anything bad.
    Boss: You must have COVID!

    Don't they only have antibodies against one strain though?

    If that's the case then the vax is pretty usless.

    ? The point was if someone has natural antibodies, their
    antibodies would only be against whatever strain they
    caught. The vaccines are supposed to protect against
    multiple strains. I don't know what you mean about the
    vaccines being useless in that case..

    Our bodies begin to produce the necessary antibodies as soon as
    it detects a virus. Sometimes the body can deal with the
    invader very well, and we don't become too uncomfortable. In
    any case, as soon as we become well, our bodies can deal with a
    repeat of that strain immediately. If not, and a new variant
    surfaces, ... rinse, repeat.

    Yes, I understand how the body's immune system works. I was just saying I thought the vaccine helped to protect against multiple strains.

    Where I work we've had a lot of covid over the last two years, so
    people are little on edge there.

    Does your employer require it's employees be vaccinated?

    No, and those of us who are vaccinated don't need to wear a mask.

    ... It's not hard to meet expenses, they're everywhere.
