At least they're scrambling the text a bit now.

I suppose even the super-evil can learn.

The effectiveness of the Pfizer vaccine dropped to 42% with the Delta variant. Moderna clocked in at 76%.
Keep in mind, the EUA can’t be issued for anything less than 50% effectiveness.

“ Moderna's vaccine against infection had dropped to 76% in July - when the Delta variant was predominant - from 86% in early 2021. Over the same period, the effectiveness of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine had fallen to 42% from 76%, researchers said. While both vaccines remain effective at preventing COVID hospitalization, a Moderna booster shot may be necessary soon for anyone who got the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines earlier this year, said Dr. Venky Soundararajan of Massachusetts data analytics company nference, who led the Mayo study. ”

Cristin Dickerson MD My clinic is a fair representation of Harris county. When I tracked % positives during the last wave, I was always in-line with TMC’s data. The current vaccination rate in Harris 50%.

This is over what period?
Would like to see a breakout, at least before and after July 1, as a date when Delta likely took over.
Then ... don't they always want more ... breakout by hospitalization. I won't even ask for fatality from this small sample. 🙂

It’s over the past 5 weeks. No fatalities.

I think liberals can be lied to an infinite number of times by Fraudulent Fauci and they will never figure it out.

It's not that they are stupid, it's that they don't want to figure it out.

They subconsciously know that it will make their whole world view crumble, and that would be too painful to consciously contemplate.

It might lead to such unacceptable thoughts as:

- I have been made a fool of by Fauci, who is literally threatening my life and my children's lives with a potentially fatal injection for profit.
- Institutions like the CDC and NIH are corrupt, so I have no trustworthy source of authoritative medical information now.
- It was never about racism. I was badly fooled about that too.
- Maybe the election really was fraudulent too.
- Maybe HCQ actually would have saved hundreds of thousands of lives, but people like me have some responsibility for their deaths.

And on and on. Therefore, best not to really think about these things, but just to believe CNN.

I’m convinced that many people turn on the TV because they want to be told what to think (be a part of the mindless borg collective groupthink crowd) because it makes them feel safe. When someone tells you what to think and do, you don’t have to risk making your own choices. Many people prefer to live this way.

Yes, there's a quote from someone high up at CNN to the effect that, "People don't watch CNN for news. They watch to feel good about having their world view confirmed."

Like a religious belief. I just read this quote:
"Masks are the rosary beads, Fauci is the pope, the CDC is the Church, the World Health Organization is Vatican City, and guidance from both organizations is the Bible."
I would add that the Holy Vax is the Baptism

No. Baptism happens once; It's more like the eucharist.

I believe this is exactly what @WookieMan was advocating a year and a half ago.

The news is literally paid-for propaganda now.

Shit, it has been that long... Made sense at the time and I believe it still does instead of vaccinating younger people and forcing mask wearing on school aged children. We knew who it was killing March/April 2020. Kids are dirty fuckers and it should have been wiping them out if dangerous to them. Young adults up to 40 will party in large groups and go to big events and they weren't hit hard.

My mom got vaccinated, but still keeps to herself. She knows it has potential to kill her at just about 70. We still see each other, but not as frequent. It is what it is. I'd rather have her alive for 20 more years and see her less than have her die from being around us more if that makes sense. Same outlook could be made for regular flu as well which is the absolute hypocritical part of Fauci's messaging. If masks worked, he failed for decades as a bureaucratic cunt. They don't with the flu and they don't for covid as far as I can tell.

I won't get the vaccine and anyone that asks for a vaccine card will be sued personally and the business. Not sure how the case would go, but I've got the funds. Sick of this shit. I'd literally be willing to spend $100k. I'd hate to damage small business, as that's what I frequent, but those are the people that need to step up and tell government to fuck off.

My pockets aren't deep enough to go after the big boys without organizing a group. And then we'd be censored and couldn't grow the group and funds to go after the big guys for discriminating agains a flu. Fucked up times.

Daily covid rant over.

I simply don't understand our societal logic on this particular train of thought:

Virus may have escaped a BSL-4 facility, the highest level of biocontainment we have available with our current level of public technology.

Yet, we expect kids and grannies to be able to prevent spread with cloth masks and hand sanitizer? Sheesh.

Really good point. Although we are talking about the Chinese. Most of the goods we buy are throw away after 2 years, so quality is not high on their list which could explain the leak. It will likely happen again.

Fact is we shouldn't be fucking with nature. Gain of function is stupid. We don't build houses here in IL in anticipation of a tornado knocking down all the existing houses. That's what gain of fucktion is. Only difference is that empty house cannot kill you. We have to stop messing with nature. Climate change people should be all over this like flies on shit. Not a peep.

Covid will kill more people than climate change has over everyones lifetimes. All because China is a fucked up place and we gave an adversary money to research fucking bats... BATS. Jesus we're fucked.

I have a recollection of the Wuhan laboratory having French technical assistance and later they went on their own, terminating the arrangement.

The Chinese evidently were not yet capable on their own.

I don’t recall where I read this.

Fauci created the virus to sell the "vaccine".

This is a crime against humanity.

We do not know how many reported #COVID deaths
(i) were caused by COVID
(ii) had COVID as a contributing factor
(iii) were unrelated to COVID
That is the responsibility of @CDCgov

The CDC is utterly corrupt now, a mere sales agency for Pfizer.

Patrick says

but we she means "I"... probably identifies as multiple people who she ate this morning to get so fucking obese.

Unfortunately the same evil dipshits tried to get us all to draw the wrong conclusions on this; just as they are now -parading out “young and healthy” 400 lbs monstrosities taken in “the prime of life.” It’s sad hemophiliacs and blood transfusion recipients in the 80s died of AIDS, just as it’s sad 400lb 48 year olds are dying of wuhan-coof, or 80 year old nursing home residents are taken a few years before their allotted times. On the other hand, seeing obviously fit 25 year old women nervously jogging outside with their masks on is pretty fucking ridiculous.

With all the hyperbolic panic about the delta variant impacting children with more severe illness and the anti-science push to mask kids in schools, it’s worth providing some perspective…as you can see, hospitalization rates for <18 are nearly nonexistent.

Stop panicking.
