addendum, sort of - the numbers given are that about .01% of people who had covid were re-infected, vs .06% of those who were vaccinated. obviously, it is a pretty small chance either way. if the study was well done and accepted by the scientific community, you could still question of why one would rather risk getting covid for that teeny tiny advantage of not being re-infected? seems like those taking the risk of having covid for the purpose of future 'greater immunity' would still not following logic.

That oughta ignite some push back. :fuel:
Another great line quote, from 'Young Guns' or 'Young Guns II' (can't remember which), if used to decide on getting the vaxx or not:
"I'd rather drink turpentine and piss on a brushfire." :lol:

turpentine? pffttt. when i was in high school, i drank mad dog 20/20 with a little thunderbird as a chaser. i'd rather drink that than rewatch 'young guns', or even 'young guns 2'. puts turpentine to shame.

Ever try this stuff ?
As a traditional Greek wine, retsina is made with the addition of pine resin, which, unsurprisingly, is a turn-off to people who find the uniquely pungent flavor and turpentine-like aromas unappealing.
No kidding.

Nearly 60% of Denver's police force is unvaccinated. Mayor is requiring vax for all city employees...

This will be interesting.

Since this may be a “preventable” hospitalization it would be acceptable to me if insurance companies hiked the price to the unvaccinated Covid folk. Especially after the FDA approval.

Isn’t that like discrimination or something. Live free and die.

Why stop there? We could start hiking the price on those obese, have high blood pressure, diabetes, etc. and even risky sex. Ka-ching!

Those are all preventable as well.

Are those pre-existing conditions...🤣 i thought a previous administration made that illegal, kind of like you can get all the traffic violations you feel like and they can't raise your premiums! Plus, you can get your fat ass behind the wheel of a car after consuming mass quantities of booze and they can't cancel your insurance, can "they?"

And I was being sarcastic too. How many immunizations are required before you can enroll in college, send your little shits to daycare called kindergarten? And people are actually concerned about teams without shots for Christ's sake!

No wonder Carlin got so disgusted with America he croaked!

I’ve never been able to completely avoid risky sex. Ever. Luckily, I’ve been able to prevent it on most occasions based upon my looks and personality. It’s my built-in defense.

Kind of like the necessity for "peer reviewed" bullshit...try getting that idea by your fucking journal editors who decide whether or not anything and everything is worthy of being published...🤣 All ten or twelve of them out there...

Now, lets talk about warp speed...how's that sitting with the journal editors?
