Yeah... You totally can't trust a vaccine with 97% efficacy and a negligible mortality rate that's existed for over 80 years versus an extremely infectious virus with a 40% mortality rate and no effective treatment or cure... If only there were extensive scientific studies on these things that were easily and freely accessible to the public! Why do we have to live in such a dark and uninformed time!?
One small correction. 20-25% require hospitalization, In the third world 1% to 3% mortality rate, in the first world typically 1-in-1000, but note that at least two have died of that initial group that was infected (125?).
Go get vaxxed, dammit.
Because conservatives have been gutting education every chance they get throughout history. 🤷♂️
What better way to control the masses than have them all fat, exhausted, stupid, and sick?
Emphasis on "stupid".
Damn, I'm fat, exhausted, and sick right now because I've had bronchitis for the past 2 weeks.
Although I'm not a conservative and I'm arguably not stupid so I have that going for me at least lol
The stupid part is the biggest factor, the rest just wears you down until you're like "Okay... Just do whatever so I can get out of this."
Hope you get better soon!
Sorry about the bronchitis. You're probably sick of sipping warm drinks by now but keep it up, you're at Mile 21 and ready to make a turn for the better.
because tiny little coffins make great structural support for fascism. imagine how hard it would be to acknowledge your delusional nonsense directly killed your child. would you ever genuinely be capable of doing that? do you know anyone who would be?
buying your unwavering eternal loyalty by killing your kids. it's great. love fascism.
