I’ve been getting posts like this from my niece, who is an icu nurse, during the entire pandemic. I know that the media gets dumped on for a lot of bs reasons, but if there was a failure by them, it was in telling this story. The right has treated our health care workers as poorly as the left treated returning Vietnam vets. And there will probably be just as much PTSD to deal with.

The drunker I get, the more pissed off I am that I could not see and hug my daughter on her 17th birthday. It’s brutal and sad enough when I get to see her. It’s even worse when I don’t. Get ***** vaccinated!

That just means you’ve never had good ones.

Welp, just found out that one of my daughter's DSPs tested positive. Second person in her unit. We were supposed to drive down to see her tomorrow with her 81 year old grandma for her 17th birthday. Not sure what we're going to do now. Fehk!

I hate this take. We knew that my daughter had health issues early on, so we decided to split up the MMR shot. She had her first seizure in the week following the Mumps shot. After the measels shot, I watched her flap her arms and spin around in circles for three days, and then she got the measels (we kept the doctor's report,... actually, we have binders full of all of her doctors' reports). We decided to skip the rubella shot (risk/reward.) When we decided to use marijuana when her seizure meds stopped working, I read GW Pharma's patent application among others to figure out the best way to prepare it for her, to get the benefits without getting her high, and then to get her high to deal with her behaviors. We didn't go into giving her this vaccine lightly or without a fair bit of research. It's not that hard to understand scientific concepts without getting as granular as a virologist. Risk/reward. Even with her history, we chose to give it to her. Our decision was based on facts. She had zero reaction to it.

Again, false. Your body fights off invaders all the time. The vaccine uses a sequence of the rna(dna) of the virus to fool your immune response to fight it off. If you got a gene sequence of your dna before and the again after you received the vaccine, they would be identical. The notion is ridiculous.

It does not ‘mess with the cell structure.’

This is absolutely false and the reason we get frustrated with antivaxxers.

I might actually watch the Sabres next year if he is playing.

The chicken wing is dead. Long live the chicken wing.

I'm not worried. I just see pictures of unvaccinated people I work with out in bars and clubs filled with people and nobody wearing a mask. It pisses me of that when these selfish pricks (IMO) get covid, and they will, they will get two weeks of payed time off, and I will have to pick up their slack at work.

If Abbot truly was vaccinated, then it’s most likely not a life threatening illness. And Abbot’s policies most likeLy have killed people, so ***** him.

You do know that that is Donald Sutherland, right.
-
You are remembering it wrong. That was the hope, but it was never stated as fact. This.
-
They have always stated that variants could become resistant to the vaccine. Always. That’s why it was important for everyone to get vaccinated. But people are blockheads. Thanks, blockheads.

What does effort money mean? Is that money that they have to still pay because of past stupid decisions? And what do the Bills have to do with the Sabres? ...weird post.

For a large part of my life, my dream car was a Ford F-150. I’ve now had one for 10+ years. The shine is off, but I still really like it. I just don’t need a truck anymore. My favorite all time vehicle?... wait for it,... Mercury Villager minivan. I love minivans. I wish they were cooler so my wife would let me get another one. Someone needs to make some sort of SUMV (sport utility minivan). I would buy one in a heartbeat. My dream car now is probably a Dodge Durango. I can put gear in it, sleep in it, and I think it’s the same motor they put in the Daytonas so my wife will think it’s cool.

Bruin?

Good question. I don’t know. Maybe time is a factor and they just aren’t fully approved yet. The FDA is a good thing. Like, really good thing. Like, sets the standard around the world kinda thing. Pretty sure we don’t want to go back to bone shavings in the coconut, and missing digits in the sausage.
-
I don’t think this is correct. I thought these vaccines went through the exact same testing, but all the stages were done concurrently. They didn’t have to wait for one stage to be completed before they started the next one. That’s why it was approved for use so quickly.
-
Oof. I must’ve taken an extra gummie last night. My wife and I didn’t get the J+J. We both got the PuhFizer jab. My sister in law got the J+J, though, so my study results remain valid.
-
My wife and I both got the J+J. Neither of us had any side effects. Both COVID free. From my data, the J+J vaccine is 100% effective with zero side effects. Small sample size, I know, but it must be happening on a much larger scale.
