--Has anyone asked how much these "free" vaccines will actually cost us in taxes? You don't need to add the trillions in lost business from the lock-downs, the business closures, or count the deaths as a direct result of the government's actions. Because after all, one death is too much....right?

--If herd immunity is reached at 70%+ with other viruses that are even more deadly than Covid, why is the new goal 95%+ for Covid?

--If I can smell your B.O. (or your French fries) through my mask, is that square of cotton really protecting me from a sub-microscopic virus?

--if my kids are more at risk from the flu than they are from Covid, why isn't Governor Newsom mandating that they get flu vaccines each year too?

--Why are other countries officially using Ivermectin as a prophylaxis and medication--and seeing YUGE dropoffs in Covid cases, but prescribing it here can get you fired?

I'm so confused....

If you're interested in a serious answer, it's worth noting that a coronavirus is approximately 200-1000x larger in diameter than the aromatic organic compounds that you smell from B.O. or french fries.

You're right, but still...pretty damn small. Small enough to defeat a cloth mask. I was stupid enough to read a retrospective article that pulled together all the known mask research papers--before Covid. Most showed masks didn't work, although three or four of the 13 papers were inconclusive. Again, pre-Covid and pre-politics.

And no, I haven't been able to find the article since...

Can we have a study that tells us how good natural immunity is at helping to transmit covid please?

And for the millionth time, all this over a flu. Statistics say so.

It's all a flu that was manufactured by China. It's a flu on steroids. It's a flu where the CCP said, "Hello Wuhan Institute of Virology? What could you do for us If we wanted to get rid of the most expensive, least productive members in our country and repatriate their wealth?" Some little Chinese lady with a bat on her shoulder said "hold my beer."

USPS is a microcosm of the whole government. When it's bad, Washington throws more money at it. If they slow down service it's so the plebes will hue and cry and BEG Washington to spend more money to "restore" service.

This is why the libs always win. When America does well, they cry for more services because we can afford it. When we do poorly they cry for more services because so many are in need. When the government completely cocks it up, they cry for the government to come in and fix it at great expense. And since the government has replaced the governed and even God as the law of the land, it gets to define even whether it's doing well or not, what words mean, and even what sex you are no matter what dangles between your legs.

I honestly don't care what comes after your name. It's what you do that counts, and right now the Democrats are doing everything they can to ruin the country....so they can save it in a New World Order sort of way.

People with left-wing economic views are more prone to more anxiety disorders.

KEY POINTS

  • Claims that conservatives are higher in threat sensitivity are challenged by findings from a large long-term survey in Britain.
  • People with left-wing economic political views had higher rates of anxiety disorder symptoms.
  • People with liberal economic views tend to be higher in neuroticism and lower in conscientiousness than their conservative counterparts.
  • The relationship between threat sensitivity and political ideology may be more complex than previously thought.

Our great governor of California just instituted a vaccine MANDATE for children. No vaccine, not school. Who knows what else will be held over our heads.

At present only Pfizer is close to FDA "approval" for kid's vaccines, so unlike the rest of us, kids MUST get the Pfizer shot. Not Moderna or AstraZeneca or J&J or anything else. And we're told that we can't mix and match vaccines, so all children here are stuck with Pfizer.

--except Pfirzer's effectiveness has been shown to wear off, especially compared to Moderna. But we have no choice.
--Pfizer's own testing shows a whole host of adverse effects. So much so that the expected effects from the vaccines would be FAR higher than if the kids naturally got Covid
--As we all should know by now, children have a higher chance of dying from the seasonal flu that they do from Covid

--Last...no mention of whether we'll ALL still be wearing masks if the kids get the jab. Do they get the jab and we all still wear our masks? Fauci just said gathering for Christmas is not a foregone conclusion...

How long do we let these power-hungry ass-wipes ruin our lives?

Probably not worth sending your kids to school in commiefronia anyway.
