Over 100 million people have been vaccinated. If people haven't grown a third arm, it isn't going to happen. For those who want to know long term side effects, we will know that in 5 years. Funny thing is, we won't know the long term side effects of a covid 19 infection for 5 years. Sheer idiocy, and why we will see another surge next fall/winter. I could use a third arm. Depends on where it is placed. May not work well coming out of you vajajay

I'm still clinging to the hope of becoming my own wifi hotspot. It's been a month since my second dose, though, and it hasn't happened yet. Nor have I experienced any 5G effect, and I'm not hearing Bill Gates' voice in my head. I'm beginning to think none of it is going to happen.

The creator is: @ericryanericryan The way your link worked for me, is it had the vaccine Tik Tok video at the top, and as I scrolled down there were quite a few unrelated Tik Tok videos. The one I pointed out was one of them and struck me as funny.

It is completely out of context and not part of the ebb and flow of the thread and I do not want anyone to think I had absolutely any part in thinking that video belonged in this discussion. The way you phrased your post, it seems to be attributed to me. So, I just want to clear up the record to say that I did not lead anyone to that video. I did not even think it was funny - much less relevant.

It's slightly possible that there's a lasting side effect of the Moderna vaccine as DH has now fixed breakfast on Thursday 3 weeks running. Only time will tell if it's a permanent change For me, that's almost as good as a third arm.

I know 3 people that tested positive for COVID that weren't anti-vaxer, but they were the "wait and see" type. My SIL said that she doesn't want to get the vaccine because everyone she knows said they got sick from it . She also thinks she had COVID already, back in Feb cause she had a cough. These types I would classify as morons and maybe a little bit oblivious. I'm really interested to see what happens with the people that I would call Braindead. The ones that are very opposed to masks or the vaccine. It's going to be hilarious when more and more places start requiring vaccines. I saw a TikToc video the other day from a nurse who said that anti-vaxers don't want to be part of an experiment, but that's exactly what they will become...part of the control group.

So yesterday, I was chatting with my sister on the phone. My sister was complaining that her eldest daughter was house hunting and wanted a turn key home. Unfortunately, the housing market is crazy there are prices are going waaay over asking.
She was going on and on about she having more experience in home buying (she does), and why doesn’t her daughter take advantage of that experience. After I explained that my sister just needed to back off and let her daughter figure it out, I told her I know EXACTLY how she feels.
There was about 10 seconds of radio silence. Now my question is, was that a great big SWOOSH that went over her head, or perhaps I know more about vaccines?
I did mention that TD is diving in Belize, and because we are both vaccinated can travel, as they’ll let us in.

Sunday brunch micro-chip update coming soon.

My DH mixed my vaccine for me at the vaccination pod. He made sure I got one with extra microchips.

The ONLY person on my board of directors that isn't vaccinated had a whole slew of reasons but one was because he thinks he had covid already because he felt "really weird one day."

Michigan’s Governor announced an easing of restrictions today, based on the percent of residents vaccinated. I like the carrot/stick approach. Her plan provides some targets and seems reasonable. Were at 48.8% now, once we reach 55% we can return to the office, then as we progress through stages, bars will be open longer, less restrictions on indoor sporting events, etc.
The final prize is at 70% vaccinated, all restrictions will be lifted. Will it work? I have no idea, but it’s a start. I figured if they really wanted vaccine acceptance, the state should buy the first round when we reach 70% 🙂

I get it, but it makes the employers happy and may encourage them to enforce vaccinations. I’m ready to go back, I miss the office.

I occasionally miss lunches and our monthly birthday celebrations. And a few conversations with some coworkers. I have no desire to return. The commute was very stressful and the building was quite literally making us sick.

If they really want us to reach herd immunity places need to start requiring vaccination, or at the very least have areas where people that are vaccinated don't have to distance or wear a mask. If stadiums, etc. opened and allowed those on the vaccinated side to not have to distance or wear a mask but the non-vaccinated side had to distance and be masked up it would certainly get people's attention. I realize it's never going to happen, at least in Republican states, but it would definitely encourage vaccination.

They need to determine if vaccinated can be asymptomatic carriers and infect susceptible individuals first. From my understanding, the data is being collected and it is looking promising. I wish that they'd finish up too, but understand why they're holding off on releasing a yay or nay on this. This metric is a lot more time consuming, which is why it was not included in the original metrics of the clinical trials. At the time, it was more important to determine whether or not the vaccine prevented severe disease, hospitalization and death.

The vaccine decreases the risk of hospitalizations by 94% in people over 65. It is quite remarkable that we got a vaccine this effective the first time. Every study shows they work as advertised. I suspect they will prevent asymptotic spreading too

Your link wasn't exclusive, i.e. it didn't point just to the video mocking made up vaccine side effects. That video was first, but there was a whole stream after that. I don't know if Tik Tok is such that, that is normal.

I am watching my local news, and they just highlighted a pop-up vaccination site. At a bar downtown! They didn't say whether the bar offered people a free shot after the vaccine, but I would as a bar owner

[br Oh,I thought they had pretty much determined that it is not transmitted from vaccinated people. Also, if everyone at a function is vaccinated then I see no issues as the CDC has said vaccinated people can get together and not distance or wear a mask. Honestly, telling people to get vaccinated but nothing is going to change for you is not encouraging vaccination.
