On the best men at my sisters wedding die on Tuesday. Early 50s. Got married to a very religious woman, evidently found Jesus. Decided that 'they didn't need' the vaccine. Leaves behind a 17 year old daughter. Managed to infect a woman in his church with 6 kids who is now on a ventilator.

Anti-vaxers are despicable.

There is a completely safe, effective vaccine available and some of you are stocking up on horse dewormer from Tractor Supply instead? Are you serious?

I see several of the talking heads on Fox are touting Ivermectin. Unbelievable, even for Fox.

How I miss the innocent, whimsical days of Hydroxychloroquine and light bulb injections being the magic COVID cures.

I don't understand how all of these conservative mouthpieces are getting the 'rona and dying...why didn't they just take the horse wormer or some bleach?

That’s putting them in hospitals too. MS state poison control center is reporting that 70% of their calls are related to Ivermectin now. They are bound and determined to get in an ICU. Either by COVId, or by self poisoning.

He tested negative after being exposed to my anti-vaxer BIL who tested positive. I mean they went to Waffle House and I don't know if BIL or Dad wore a mask but I'll bet BIL did.

My Dad is a Righty but thinks. He made his grown ass decision months ago and got the vaccine.

He lives, no thanks to Island911.

10 year olds are going to die, anyway, as well.

If only we could count on the FDA and CDC

I don't think this has ever been true about any vaccine.

I'd still get the vaccine even if its effectiveness is 0%. Being close to 99% able to avoid serious illness/death and to avoid overloading the hospitals is the real remaining essential value.
You would get a shot that has zero effectiveness but greater than zero risk? Interesting.

No, we were not.

No, the cure is not the vaccine, and there was never a chance it could have been

So it is a good thing he died then? That is a bit harsh.

Lucky the government camps are ready to lock up the people who are too stupid to get the jab.

Now that the FDA finally finished approving it, we can legally make it mandatory for everyone.

The cure was always going to be the vaccine Tobra... The morons refusing the cure is why we're still fighting this virus. But by all means... worry about magnetic arms bud.

please provide your medical degree or doctorate in infectious disease studies so we all can understand the level of competence in your answers. Or just show us the receipt from your latest Holiday Inn Express stay.
