The vaccine

1392 humans died in the US from Covid on 8/23/21. Your argument Island, is completely insane. I have no doubt that you are probably an intelligent man normally but you are either really gullible or just a follower to believe the way you do. Or, and this is what I believe, you just get a stiffy by playing the devils advocate in all things Internet related because it makes you feel significant. We all know you have long been vaccinated.

Absolutely. He is just wasting people's time. IMO his posts are not even worthy of responses. I just skip over them. No value.

Gullible fcking moron

Analysis of data from 40 states and Washington, D.C., shows.
Fully vaccinated people have made up as few as 0.1 percent of and as many as 5 percent of those hospitalized with the virus in those states,
and as few as 0.2 percent and as many as 6 percent of those who have died.

A CDC study found that unvaccinated people in Los Angeles County were 29 times more likely to be hospitalized with COVID-19 than those who are fully vaccinated.

Meanwhile the number of cases in fully vaccinated people is climbing. In the news and in our neighborhoods...two in mine.

As I understand, the data Sugar is referencing is from May/June, prior to Delta spreading.

Funny how you resort to insults rather than a dialogue. Says a lot about each of you.

You, Steve Carlton are the reason for vaccine skepticism. When confronted with someone who doesn’t fall in line, the personal insults and degradation rears it’s ugly head. Almost like clockwork.

A thinking person would welcome, consider and discuss opposing perspectives. A brainwashed parrot would ridicule and insult. Zero credibility. This thread is chock full.

We paid more because we wanted to be first in line. I guess we could have delayed 90% of the shipment until the 3rd and 4th quarter to get a lower price.

Albanian contract
https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/20616251-albanian-pfizer-covid-19-vaccine-contract



And we get Moderna cheaper than the EU.
https://www.bmj.com/content/372/bmj.n281
That principle has also been applied to the biggest players. The EU financially supported the development of the BioNTech and Pfizer vaccine and has obtained a lower price per dose ($14.70 than the US ($19.50). The Moderna vaccine’s development was subsidised by the US government, and it will cost the US about $15 a dose, while the EU is paying $18.

Albania signed their contract in Jan 6th, 2021
US signed their initial contract on July 22nd, 2020

Who was in charge and agreed to pay that much higher price?

I tried that and am giving up. I'm not the first to insult anyone, and I won't be the last. You yourself are a rich source of disinformation. Funny how you can insult people, then dismiss name calling when it comes out. Well, I'm sorry, but island911 is the Mt. Everest of stupidity on this forum. I have asked him straightforward questions repeatedly, only to get crickets. Enough. A spade will be called a spade.:

In response to jyl's absolutely accurate post #2 on 7/30, an insult from you:

It’s great to have even more internet “experts” on board though. I had JYL pegged as a pretty sharp financial guy. Now virology. Who knew?

Awesome!
More gems from Chocaholic (in this thread):

So much for science.

You realize that 0.1% of millions is how we got into this viral fear mode, right? - 0.1% of millions is a lot of people.

Yup. Their emotions are off the chart. The slightest criticism of any one of the CV vaccines and they lose their minds.

Hey, maybe it's a side effect of one of the CV vaccines.

I find it odd that Steve Carlton is criticizing Chocaholic for his contributions in this thread. Mr. Carlton hasn’t posted a single factual argument about the vaccine in the entire thread.

I would go back and quote him but he knows what he posted.

Do go on. The Steve Carlton Flail-fest is really something.

Better add to the CV vax SIDE EFFECTS: Uncontrollable rage when challenged.

Which jab(s) did you get?

One hospital, according to staff, had over 80% of hospitalizations were vaccinated but the news reported them as having 90% unvaccinated.

At the risk of repeating myself, I was referring to you criticizing him for his contributions in this thread, when you have made none yourself... apart from criticizing other people, without backing those claims up.

The irony was too good to pass up.

No. We did not get into fear mode from breakthrough infections. Please check on the percentages of unvaccinated vs vaccinated in the hospital and let us know what you think we should be in fear of.

No rage- just frustration with complete stupidity. I got Pfizer. How about you?
