Back in November I had a conversation with a fellow employe about possibly dropping masks in our school. She was opposed and said she was high risk (her "risk" didn't sound like an actual risk but whatever, I'm not her doctor.) I suggested if she was really high risk that she should get a better mask than the cloth one she was wearing. She said oh no, she didn't want to wear a KN95! At that point I just ended the conversation because it was pointless.

I suspect that, for many, if they deem that they still need to mask because of their personal reasons, they , by extension, will be masking for another year or two (or longer). The other thought is that many people have had the sh** scared out of them that they’re like the caged bird who doesn’t want to leave when the door is finally left open- for the first time after 10 years.

She was sitting at a table with four other people eating and talking - no singing though. She did not wear a mask OUT of the restaurant either - they left while I was eating.

Excluding the sick and elderly, it is 99.95 percent. I know of plenty of people who have had Covid themselves, or in their families, all ages. Some vaxed, some not. No real horror stories. In fact, I've heard of more people with serious problems from the vaccines than from Covid itself, but that's another story. The amount of fear around this is completely out of proportion with the actual danger, that has been true all along.

Whenever people insist of masks, vaccine-to-work mandates, or vaccine passports, I always want to know, “Is this how you want life to be forever? Having to show your vax pass to go to the diner down the street, or masking on the bus? If not, when do you think we should drop these measures and move on with life, come what may?” I wonder if anyone seriously asks herself that question.

Like driving a car for example. Living an unhealthy lifestyle (guilty!) or these days, just walking down the street can be risky. Yet these behaviors continue without a thought, but let somebody take off a mask and "OMG! You're killing people!"

I disagree with the Vaccination is the best to reduce the outcome. Even with delta that was questionable. While you could theoretically say that you could reach 75% against delta, and the current vitamin D stats is only at 65%, that assumes that you hit the virus when you are on peak immunity, and that is really very unlikely. Actually the vaccination will in this case give you a higher chance of delaying the infection, and if its delayed even with one month, you are down to 60%. For vitamin D you can keep at a 65% indefently. For Omicron the reduction for current vaccine is 13%. The risk of getting delta to day is minuscule.

And they voted for whomever they perceived would protect them more. In my state, which is among the states that always has the highest number of cases and deaths in the country has had a 0.02% death rate. (And also keep in mind how they classify a Covid death.)

My own history - clearly have been exposed but have never tested positive despite multiple runs of serial testing following exposures. I have followed ‘vax and boost’ as well as D, Zinc, Quercetin supplements since at least August 2021 (delta and omicron). Now, based on recent materials and data from Dr. Bruce Patterson I am very concerned about any more spike protein from vaccines (more spike appears to mean more risk of ‘post vaccine long covid). Dr. Patterson’s data is not fully in and evaluated, but seems basically correct.

We already made the mistake of locking down at the very beginning which threw our economy sideways and lead to massive inflation and outrageous gas prices, all these restrictions could end up leading to even more consequences beyond covid and the economy. Like what the hell have we done as humans that all of this is ok. There not only needs to be restrictions on public health but there should also be restrictions on what the media can talk about and how much they can talk about it just because the media is what broke our brains with this pandemic how they entice us with fear.

Please don't give up hope. As an unvaccinated Victorian, I can understand some of what you're going though. It is incredibly hard to have a rational discussion with a large portion of the population, even highly intelligent people are susceptible to the fear based propaganda that has lead us to where we are. As you mentioned Peak Prosperity, you might have watched Chris' interview with Prof. Matthias Desmet a few months ago. That goes into significant detail about what is happening, mass formation or mass psychosis, and how it happens. As to why and who is behind it, that's a rabbit hole in itself. Needless to say, the Bill Gates' of the world are quite eager in pushing the jabs as well as digital identity cards and "vaccine passports". This is, in my opinion, an entirely deliberate endeavor aimed at enslaving the population of the world for all intents and purposes. Once a digital identity system and digital currency is brought in, there will be no escaping the system, you must obey or you will be cut off, potentially from everywhere. It would make the Chinese social credit system seem quaint. These last few years have been incredibly frustrating for so many, and very intellectually lonely. I would have much enjoyed going indoor rock climbing, or to take my young son to swimming lessons, but alas I am not welcome there. I don't know what would ease your burden, but for me making things provides a much needed distraction from the machinations of the world and a steady sense of achievement from making progress towards a goal. Just finished a set of cupboards that took me seven months to complete, making a greenhouse next. If you have such interests, or others, then that can be quite a big help. The people who attack you for your vaccination status are mostly reacting out of fear, and as time goes on and the ineffectiveness of the jabs becomes more apparent, they are reacting with resentment. My partner ended up getting the Novavax shot recently, and even for that some people are hostile towards her, it seems that they are angry that they took the risk of the mRNA shot but she didn't. I've looked at it, it seems substantially safer than the others, but for me it is not something that is medically necessary, so I'm not going to take it. I hope that the future will be brighter, there are occasional signs of this madness wavering, or threatening to pick another target, but it's still touch and go. But, this time will pass. Hopefully people will remember why we fought for the freedoms we thought we had, and hopefully we don't have to fight for them again.

@kammonkam49052 жыл бұрын
This is a good question. Indeed it seems to be taken for granted in all presentations I have seen. But let's say the claim is vaccine reduces risk of severe outcomes by x percent. The question would be what is the baseline risk. I suppose that would be very different if you're a healthy 30 year old, a 30 year old with a long list of comorbidity, a healthy 80 year old who runs marathons or an 80 year old on feeding tube. Which groups are more likely to suffer severe outcomes? If your baseline risk is low to begin with the benefit is also not as great. A question often given to stat101 student is: if someone wants to sell you a helmet that would reduce your risk of getting hit by lightning by 90% but it costs a lot, will you buy it (assuming the claim is true)? On the other hand if your baseline risk is very high, say you are 100 years old with tubes sticking out of you, or if you have terminal cancer, then the risk reduction by vaccine probably makes little difference. An argument I often see in the media goes something like this. If you take a snapshot at the ICU of patients being treated for covid then the ratio of unvaxxed vs vaxxed is higher than in the general population. The problem is that this doesn't give you more info about these people other than their vax status. e,g are they young and healthy, or old and frail or somewhere in between, what is the break down? Are there other reasons that land them in the ICU other than their vax staus, how important is vax status as a factor? Secondly this fact only shows a correlation between vax status and ICU admission (say with a chi square test and assuming it is significant), it doesn't show the strength of the correlation (and does not address confounding, as noted in the first point), this kind of design will not give you the strength. Another thing I have heard is that the death rates in nursing homes are significantly reduced after vaccination. Again that is confounded. 1) the condition in these places would have improved after the initial outbreak 2) those who are most vulnerable would have already died after the initial wave, those survived to get the vaccine are the stronger ones and likely have already been infected and acquired natural immunity. These may be just plausibility arguments to persuade the public and not the actual studies on which the claim is based, but like you said I need some guide to find the actual studies.

For us muggles, what does it mean to be reinfected year after year after year? Are “being infected” and “being sick” the same thing? So will we all be getting sick many times each year?

COVID theater: A Johns Hopkins University meta-analysis of several studies in February found that lockdowns during the first COVID-19 wave in the spring of 2020 only reduced COVID-19 mortality by .2% in the U.S. and Europe. "While this meta-analysis concludes that lockdowns have had little to no public health effects, they have imposed enormous economic and social costs where they have been adopted," the researchers wrote. "In consequence, lockdown policies are ill-founded and should be rejected as a pandemic policy instrument."
