COVID-19 Rant

[Allhallowsday]

I am vaccinated but had my doubts.  Not because the issue has become stupidly politicized, or other absurd remarks from persons who apparently know little about the science, but because I receive a medication in which vaccination interaction effects are questioned and not fully studied.  Nonetheless, I had no problem at all. 

[Allhallowsday]

I spent an hour sparring with anti-vaxxers on social media tonight, and was so depressed when I was done . . . so much selfishness, so much embracing of quack cures, so little common sense.  I mean, these people will take a freaking CATTLE WORMER because someone else took it and said they got better, but they won't take a vaccine developed by the world's top medical scientists specifically to fight this virus...

Next time you spar with anti-vaxxers point out to them that they had probably received a polio vaccine as a child.   Such vaccine may have preserved their health and even saved their lives.  The vaccines against polio have largely eliminated the virus-caused illness from the human population (polio only occurs in humans).

exactly those people are idiots and are making things even worse

Just get the damn shot, people.  Please.  I've lost too many friends this year; I don't want more people dying needlessly!

I've lost three close friends and someone who I consider to be my younger brother got seriously ill from it: thankfully, he's OK now. I hate wearing masks (but I do wear one in public) and I hate needles (but I will get the jab) so please, get the shot!

Some cross eyed interbreds here in the States are taking horse dewormer as a treatment for covid.

People are stupid.

The real crazy part is most of those people refuse to take a vaccine that's been extensively tested and overwhelmingly recommended by doctors, but they'll take medical advice from a facebook post by a random stranger with no credentials.

Yeah. They're as dumb as a sack of doorknobs!

I believe that's called "invermectin" here or however it's spelled. I would never take that at all.

The same mind set morons who believe they have been beamed up into a flying saucer believe this kind of (hehe hee!) horse s**t!

Ivermectin.  😉. We buy it by the case.  For the horses.  The green apple flavour smells really good, though!

I wouldn't be eating it, either, Trevor.  (though the ponies have been known to steal extra doses...)

[pennywise37]

i don't get it either, for those who refuse to get it an decide to get tested once or twice a week wouldn't that be an even more of a hassle?  and also a waste of gas? even if you do the testing at work you get less s**t done cause you have to be tested and it's just not worth it. it's i think anyways far easier to stop acting worse than  5 year and get the shot unless you doctor says you can't of course.

these idiots do pray no doubt they pray they get infected and die cause that's the only explanation i can think of. it's not because the government wants to stick needles into you they aren't putting anything magnetic into you and yes people are that dumb.

Duly noted, Sister: I know I have much wrong with me but roundworms aren't one of those things

Had my second jab on thursday. No symptons except for feeling tired yesterday. I was expecting something because everyone said there might be a reaction after the second jab.

It's so senseless.   I wish I could inflict just punishment on the people who f**ked this all up with their lies.

Start with China. If COVID-19 supposedly has a natural origin, then why is China blaming the U.S. for creating the virus?

^ What do you care who started it? I worry about morons who aren't trying to stop it. (Koff koff ahem).

Go rake a forest, Tickle Me Zelmo.
