Will you get vaccinated?

[QUOTE=Cass40;1636264503]I'm sorry but I don't understand your logic at all.

Let's say the study is valid, the South African variant causes 1% of covid cases. So by the time it becomes prevalent, isn't their already going to be another vaccine?

I thought flu vaccines are a yearly thing and they always change them according to whatever variants they think is the most severe that year, and sometimes they end up getting it wrong cos they are just making the best guesses. And this is with the regular flu vaccine.[/QUOTE]

mRNA vaccines work differently than the traditional flu vaccine. They do not contain dead or inactive virus parts. Instead, they contain small molecules with specific instructions for a c-19 spike protein.

From my understanding, the only reason we were able to create the first mRNA vaccines is because China isolated and fully sequenced the virus, and shared that data.

[QUOTE=LWW;1636257843]Read the part about the plywood tailgate look real close.

No race involved, so don’t look that hard, well it could be hillbilly like ya never seen though?[/QUOTE]


Isn't a punch line supposed to be funny?

Got my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine yesterday. Other than a sore arm, no flu like symptoms so far.

Not sure what I supposed to do with the vaccine card.

It's for the donuts.

[QUOTE=7Seconds;1636261933]I saw that. I gotta be honest, I don’t believe that’s gonna win him over. I enjoyed it though.[/QUOTE]

No way in hell am I trying winning him over, I was rather insulted that he thinks I’m just playing Zappa music as a prank or to be a dufis, I’m a fanatic of Zappa music, it’s all I listen too really.

A Chevy truck with plywood tailgate with FORD spray painted on the plywood is funny as hell.

Total custom job there, big buddy!

I seen that, didn't find it that funny and certainly didn't consider it a punch line. Glad you got a kick out of it though little buddy

Why? That’s silly. Sounds like you need some recs. Since you like Zappa try

Mr Bungle - California - the whole album.

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - I'm Gonna Booglarize You Baby

King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man

And Eddie Hazel.

Speaking of which I was listening to this just a few minutes ago.

Accurate. They know what they're doing giving free donuts.

With my luck, I'd get stuck with Tater Tot. Fuker would show up singing Frank Zappa tunes and surfing Nancy Grace porn on his phone all night.

Yes. That’s literally what they are.

Go back to the fear mongering thread in the big misc. We discuss things like adults in here...Sometimes.

I'm going to get the shots but it's a major issue finding an appointment in the evenings. All I've found so far are during working hours.

[QUOTE=eomrat;1636259603]Are you calling people that are hesitant to take the Covid-19 vaccine, "Anti-Vaxxers"?[/QUOTE]

People here and elsewhere are periodically conflating the issues of risk analysis outcomes versus being anti-vax.

[QUOTE=Plateauplower;1636219523]It very well could have escaped from a research lab, the proximity to the lab is certainly curious. I don’t believe it was a bio-weapon though, if it was, the guy making it should be fired for incompetence because he’s not very good at his job.[/QUOTE]

Not trying to get all Alex Jones here but I saw some theories on China manufacturing COVID-19 for getting Chinese troops into Hong Kong and it made sense in a crazy sort of way. China has been jonesing for Hong Kong for a long time and the new security laws pushed through while HK politicians were quarantined and had no say gives them a ton of power there now.

[QUOTE=eomrat;1636260223]I absolutle disagree. I know dozens of people who are fully vaccinated, but have concerns about this vaccine.

Why do you think people are, "trying to make a case". You don't think its possible that instead of some political motivation, some folks are genuinely apprehensive about this particular vaccineu?[/QUOTE]

How dare you bring common sense and critical thinking into this conversation? We should all just trust the government and do exactly what they say like good little peons.

Sure, Nancy Grace isn’t ideal. But you have to balance that cost with the benefit of having someone capable of lifting 150 lbs with their teeth in such close proximity to you. Is it worth it? I’m not sure, but depending on what specific situations may arise, it might just be.

ha ha, you guys are scaring me into getting my vaccine ASAP.

2nd Pfizer shot this AM. So far so good.

I don't think you know what, "literally" means.

Is someone who doesn't like Fords Anti-car? Or someone who doesn't like broccoli Anti-Food?

Right on!, good luck and good health.

As you call a dissenting opinion “fear mongering.” What an adult you are. If you want to discuss things like an adult, do so with evidence, not name calling.

Krispy Kreme gives a free donut with vaccine passport until end of the year.

You can be anti vaccine without being anti all vaccines. The Covid vaccine is literally a vaccine. If you are anti Covid vaccine, you are — say it with me — literally anti vaccine. Anything else you want to get cute with?

Here, maybe this will help. Literally.

“Vaccine hesitancy, also known as anti-vaccination or anti-vax, is a reluctance or refusal to be vaccinated or to have one's children vaccinated against contagious diseases. People who conform to this view are commonly known as "anti-vaxxers". The term encompasses outright refusal to vaccinate, delaying vaccines, accepting vaccines but remaining uncertain about their use, or using certain vaccines but not others.”

Basically there’s so much of it.

There are so many shows on YouTube and every tune is never played the same twice.

Last night while going to sleep I started Billy the Mountain which I’m not too familiar with, found the world premiere and it’s like 35 minutes. Billy’s wife is a tree on his shoulder named Ethel. I only got halfway through it, need to check out other half maybe tonight.
