Lmao absolutely not under any circumstance.

That’s him, yes.

Yes, masks are dumb, but I always liked Gabbard and Yang (before he sold out).

2+ weeks post-2nd shot of Pfizer and Disneyland tickets are bought, reservation has been booked, and I’m beyond stoked to be going at 25% crowd capacity :sunglasses::call_me_hand:

I know Gabbard, but who’s Yang?

but you have to wear a mask in park all day in the heat. Anyone who is fully vaccined don’t need a mask anymore they are just prolong pandemic and its pissing people off.

Andrew Yang. He wanted to put forth a UBI because he predicted a future where many common jobs were automated.

The hippy author candidate had her moments too.

OK, I wasn’t sure because of the apparent present tense in the statement:

“Calls” where I assume you mean “called” or “once called”, as for obvious reasons Kary Mullis hasn’t said anything since 2019. I didn’t want to harp on a minor grammatical error like we all make, but also didn’t know if you could have been referring to something else more current that I wasn’t aware of.

Considering what the dispute between Fauci and Mullis was actually about, do you really think it’s relevant to this conversation?

Anti-Vaxxers are nuts.

That there are highly educated people that think Fauci is a dangerous idiot? Yes, yes I do.

My apologies. I’ll be more mindful of my grammar before submitting my thesis for scientific discussion…

The Polio vaccine was developed over several decades. The Covid vaccine is still in the clinical trials and they have only been testing for about a year. Both Moderna and Pfizer are using an experimental method – although Moderna previously tried this method with the first SARS with disastrous results.

Pfizer has paid out billions in lawsuits for little things like killing people, but now they have total immunity from lawsuits, so yeah, let’s rush into a vaccine for a virus with a 99.9% survival rate!

All the covid vaccines are using faulty data to “prove” their effectiveness.

Not rushing to get the jab doesn’t make you anti-vaxx, it means you’re not a gullible idiot.

That there were highly educated people that thought Fauci was a dangerous idiot for believing that the HIV virus was linked to AIDS?

Fauci made several false claims regarding AIDS, including the modes transmission and percentage in which heterosexual males would become infected. Presumably, this was due to his own financial stake in at least one medication.

The current RNA vaccines have been worked on since the SARS I virus. COVID 19 is SARS II so they used the data from SARS I to work on the current vaccine. SARS I and SARS II have things in common so those common things have already been worked out they just needed data on the differences between the two. That’s why they managed to get it created so fast because of past data from SARS I.

Peter Duesberg and Kary Mullis’ argument with Luc Montagnier (the head of the French team that discovered HIV), Francoise Barre-Sinoussi, Robert Gallo, and eventually Fauci was simply the idea that AIDS was caused by HIV.

Duesberg insisted that HIV is harmless and not the cause of AIDS. When Gallo used Mullis’ test to confirm Luc Montagnier’s hypothesis, and Fauci subsequently directed the bulk of research toward HIV, Mullis challenged Fauci to a debate.

Fauci declined and Mullis became incensed and repeatedly called Fauci a liar and an abuser of his (Mullis’) test. Bear in mind that, although Mullis was an educated and very intelligent person by any measure, he was also well known as a prickly and argumentative individual who regularly used illegal halogenic drugs and claimed to have experienced an alien abduction. He never did back down on his insistence that HIV was not the cause of AIDS.

That’s all well and good, but it doesn’t make Fauci any less of a dangerous idiot. Fauci from 2020 would argue with Fauci from 2021…

4000+ people have died of the covid vaccination. Why is this not reported? I learned a whole ton listening to people who testified in support of a bill here in Texas that will ban vaccination passports and employers mandating vaccinations.

There has never been a time in history where there was a mandated vaccine to be employed. Not even in the hospital, and I’m and RN, so I’m not just some dude standing by that doesn’t know anything. And then a mandatory vaccine that doesn’t actually prevent you from getting it and doesn’t do a whole lot more than lessening the effects.

Call me crazy, it’s fine if you do, but I refuse to put something in my body that literally has killed all the animals it was tested on. If y’all want to put that in your bodies, that’s your choice, but don’t make it mandatory.

Because it’s not true.

Explains a lot.

Small pox vaccine.

Oh, OP, I forgot to actually answer your question to the thread. Yes, I got my second Moderna shot last Friday. Mild body aches for a day then fine.

I don’t know what legitimate source such data could come from other than VAERS. But that is not what VAERS is showing.
Over 245 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through May 3, 2021.
During this time, VAERS received 4,178 reports of death (0.0017%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine.
Healthcare providers are required by law to report deaths of people who received a COVID-19 vaccine regardless of cause of death, but VAERS is a passive reporting system, and anyone can submit a report to VAERS, you can if you want to. False reports are not uncommon.
CDC and FDA physicians review each report of death as soon as notified and CDC requests medical records to further assess reports. A review of available clinical information, including death certificates, autopsy, and medical records has not established any causal link to COVID-19 vaccines other than the recent reports indicating a plausible causal relationship between the J&J/Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine and a rare and serious adverse event—blood clots with low platelets—which has caused deaths.

The mRNA technology that allowed the rapid development of the COVID-19 vaccines is generally considered safe and is seen as the future of vaccine development, however the vast amount of historical data about long term effects of vaccines does not exist for the mRNA vaccines and some individuals see this as a risk they choose not to take.
