No the doctors are vaxxed. I can’t speak to every one of them, but from what I’m told nobody is really sick. Just inconvenienced. Even if they were showing no symptoms they wouldn’t be able to work. It’s a range of no to mild symptoms of the ones I was told of.
We know vaccines won’t end covid, but there’s absolutely no merit in arguing against that the more people that are vaccinated, the less deaths and hospitalizations, and that always has been the determining factor in lockdowns and the deviation from daily life.
If someone doesn’t want to get vaxxed, whatever. Just stay in your basement with no human contact and stay out of the way.
If 1/1000 doctors says to stay away from vaccinations, there is a 99.9% chance they are wrong. If 2/5 doctors were arguing against vaccines it might be worth a discussion, but not every doctor is a good one and in any massive sample sizes your going to have idiots, contrarians, religious zealots, etc. That will use their degree as a merit badge for believing whatever they say.

Doctors in a hospital setting are also are probably exposed to an order of magnitude more viral load than the average person. So if they're just getting mild illness that bodes well for the rest of us that are vaxxed.

Early on when the vaccine was first made available, I agree there would be hesitation on what potential harmful impacts will become apparent. Right now, there is enough data to support the benefits of taking the vaccine. Sure, we can always play devil's advocate and say we don't know the long term effects, however anyone who has seen what is happening around the world, can make an informed choice of the risks of taking the vaccine versus the risks of getting covid.

More and more Employers are now taking the stance that a vaccine mandate will be part of your employment as it is seen as a health and safety issue. Those who still believe in their conspiracy bullshit and still think things are overblown, good luck. You may think your rights are being infringed upon, however, your rights do not override the safety of others around you. You might start looking around at what countries in the world will accept your beliefs as your right to travel will soon prevent you from leaving.

I am aware of the discredit out there. More just saying that there are a great deal of people from all walks of life that do not correlate increased vaccinations with preventing more deaths or hospitalizations in a pure black and white manner. And there are people feeling the pressure of choice being taken away from them due to non-compliance. And more than the normal amounts of people that typically speak out too. Within that, I just happen to find it interesting. Why there are so many different opinions and why people feel the way that that do. That's all. Just an observation.

Are there any reliable numbers on people who have had covid and got it a 2nd time vs those who have been fully vaxxed and got covid?

Alberta being Alberta

Politician Pretends To Use Hand Sanitizer Before He Speaks

The world of social media. Everyone has an opinion these days and apparently that means they are a credible source of info. You know it is a problem when the media quotes tweets as sources of info let alone the nonsense that you see on Facebook.

Long gone are the respect for those who are experts in their field. I may have an opinion about how to treat my sprained shoulder but I will listen to a physiotherapist when they provide advice on the best way to treat my injury.

They also tend to either a) not actually be doctors or b) be in a field that has nothing to do with what they're talking about. You wouldn't go to a knee specialist to talk about a kidney transplant.

but bro, dr oz

But Dr Phil, catch me outside how bout dat:joy::troll:

TLDW: Ivermectin showed promise in vitro, and it may have some antiviral properties at certain dosages. Problem is, the dose required for that is so high, it's toxic.

Works great at low dose to kill parasites, but not so great when you're taking toxic doses trying to cure covid.

Add this to Chloroquinine as another drug scientists saw promise in, but ended up being useless. I'm not sure why weirdos try to cling to each one after they're proven not to work, but there you go. I'm sure there will be another. Maybe an antifungal next?

maybe he's just doing is square version of birdman :badpokerface:

I just got notification for my third dose. Haven’t even heard of this happening here except for special circumstances? Do they think I’m dying? Lol

F in the chat. Dibs on your Datsun

Bad example you might say; i did call out someone and this what they threw back at me.

"Just because I work here / fixing the car, doesn't mean I believe the product, I'm here for the paycheck."

"I don't drive one because i don't believe on their poor craftsmanship"

Someone was hired to work but they can't work at their tradeshow. it's going to be interesting when 50% of work bookings comes from the show; sorry, your numbers aren't doing well.... gotta let you go might be the best way to let someone go cause legally, HR has justification on performance.

If I’m dying. It’s due to the stress of ownership of said Datsun. Haha.

a text?

it's a scumbag scammer - phishing

It’s a bit different than the mechanic, as there are other choices for cars to drive around.
Healthcare is objective and has one system with proven treatments. Your options for other treatments right now are going to the pet store or fighting it with “natural immunity”
It’s more like a mechanic walking because they don’t believe in cars. It’s possible that person exists and can be objective, but chances are they didn’t get into the profession if they have no interest and no belief in it.
It’s like someone who writes music but won’t listen to it or someone who writes menus but doesn’t eat. Unless you’re Beethoven, you probably can’t do it.

Have you had a transplant? Or considered moderately to severely immunocompromised?

My wife's been on prednisone the last few weeks because of an issue with her eye and she got a text saying she may require a booster because she's considered immunocompromised now.

I have no issues. Not a scam. I can register through the system. Our medical system is $ucked. Lol

Do you have diabetes?

Nope.

What drugs you on then? :suspicious:

You guys got it all wrong. The 5G chip they gave him from the first shots clearly had a short. They need to get him a replacement ASAP before he becomes too woke
