Very nice,we have actual (December 18th 2020 - 1:44 am in Austria) a near 50:50 Percent Vote Result.
Very,very nice.:)
No surprise there, science has been politicized just like everything else. Putin definitely got his money's worth when it came to Trump shaking peoples' faith in government and the CDC.

It sucks to hear this. Each day it seems like children become more like a commodity, something the government owns and allow you to raise the child for them, as long as you comply with their doctrines. Like a car that you "buy" and they take if you don't pay an yearly tax.

When my son had went to daycare he had to have all of his current vaccines.I personally don't have a problem with the vaccine however it is being rushed to the public without reasonable testing so I do expect them to mandate it for schools and daycare. The kids won't always be able to do virtual classes forever.

We live in a world where $$$ is more important than your health.

Oh boy, a thread for all the anti-vaxxer trash to come out of the woodwork. I can't *possibly* see this thread turning into a dumpster fire. :rolleyes:

And yes, I'm getting the god-damn vaccine to protect me and my family.

After years of being pestered by my doctors and pharmacy to get the flu vaccine I finally gave in and said ok. Then I became horribly sick. I don't know what was the exact cause but it was bad. That happened with a vaccine that has been tested and widely available since 1945. The covid vaccine was rushed in a few months. You guys go ahead. Maybe it's perfectly safe, like the flu vaccine, but that didn't work out well for me.

Do you know what anecdotal evidence is? Even before she receives the vaccine, this woman looks like she hasn't eaten or slept in days, which would be consistent with how hard we're riding out healthcare workers right now.

"Looks like" doesn't mean "is tired/starving."

We and that nurse live in the US, where we have food, water, electricity, state of the art facilities, air conditioning, heating, and a lot of things you and I take for granted that, thanks to those needs being taken care of, you, I, and everyone else can afford to debate stuff like working conditions for people who have plenty of safety nets compared to Venezuela, where they have to bury their dead in plastic bags?

Point is, I'm sure she's fine, especially since one of the commenters on the Twitter post read some article about the incident and it seems like the nurse is doing fine...for now.

Well, seems like there's already some funny business going on with this vaccine.



Sure, they shot him with another "vaccine" shot the day after, but the hospital staff are still claiming he got the first shot and are saying that he got "two shots" and will need to get his "third". Why the deception the first time? Hmm.....

Was that a dominion voting machine giving him the first shot? Anonymous sources are stating this is "inconclusive" but may be true.

The flu vaccine is just a small portion of the dead/dormant virus meant to stimulate your own immune system into reacting. It sounds like a full dose of the active virus might've straight-up killed you, and that's why your doctors were adamant about you getting the vaccine.

We and that nurse live in the US, where we have food, water, electricity, state of the art facilities, air conditioning, heating ...
You forgot no vacant ICU beds in some areas, nurses and doctors working 72+ hour shifts and witnessing death multiple times a day, etc. They're willing to take the vaccine regardless of potential side effects because they've witnessed how the virus has ravaged the country first-hand.

We are different in physical Shape....you can not say "You have to do it,you Vaccine Refuser..."

Apparently, two shots are needed for this particular vaccine to be effective. I've read that vaccines requiring two shots isn't something exclusive to this particular one, FWIW.

Yeah, I know. That's why I said under the video that he will need to get a "third shot". Why if he got the first one? They gave him the real shot because they got caught.

Ah, ignoring nuance...

...as someone with Asperger's, I can say that I'm actually fine with vaccines. After all, you get them for measles, smallpox, etc., etc.. But with this particular vaccine? With how rushed out it is? And how members of the CCP have been found out to have infiltrated Pfizer?

Yeah, I'm gonna wait and see myself.

How does this differ from any other time in history? The only time in recent years where hospitals have been empty/under vacancy has been during this "pandemic" (see TikTok dancing nurses). I can't believe how brainwashed some of you are by the chinese disinformation your leaders and MSM have filled your brainlet heads with. Please get in line to take this vaccine and have your family log in to your account afterwards to let us know, so the proper "we lost another temper" announcement threads can be posted.

I suppose it doesn't differ much from the Spanish flu years, other than that it's hard to draw parallels.

Like two weeks ago this was "Trump's vaccine." What happened to that? Oh right, you're a hiveminded idiot whose opinion changes with the direction of the wind.

Damn, I thought you were 13 years old, not 113 years old. Why haven't you grown out of being a leftist, yet?

Trump and his admin did all they could to remove the restrictions which allowed companies to release the vaccine as soon as possible. While this is not his vaccine exclusively, it would not have been released for years (as your Leaders/handlers on CNN and MSDNC were saying this entire year while bad mouthing him the whole time and saying he would need a miracle for it to be released this year) if not for his command over the process.

I've had the flu. I get sick, I get better. No issue. Nothing has made me sick like the time I got that shot. So for me, no thank you to another vaccine.
