    If you truly believe Covid 19 is milder than a code, that you need something but it won't come in vaccine form.

    Yes and those affected by delusional thinking are rarely aware of it. What is your point?

    Do you think you would you know if your own thinking process is clouded by either?

    As Ronald Reagan said:

    “No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth!”

    So here we are, a nation mandated to feed big pharma until the last taxpayer dies.

    The question is: At what point is a “new” vaccine obsolete. The gubmint is pimping vaccines like iPhones.

    My bad, I should have said they change their positions as politics dictate. We all change as we grow older and experience guides us more than opinion but we're talking about rapid change. "I won't trust the vaccine" to "You're fired if you don't get vaccinated" for one example.

    For a guy who suggests people stick things sideways and now to call me fella is a little too Wayne Newton for me. Y'all figure it out. If you need help go visit an icu at a hospital or sit in an emergency room for 8 hours.

    Very unlikely.
    Also, very unlikely. We'll know soon.
    Almost certainly better than getting covid.
    I wonder why you're pushing anti-vax propaganda.

    Preliminary. We can hope, but we don't know.

    Maybe. But it won't be from the virus but rather having a ****ing meltdown over the insane narratives the left keeps pumping out which causes social and political divide to worsen.

    As for the deception variant?

    - mild symptoms
    - no hospitalizations.

    As per the chief doctor who discovered the damn thing and has been studying it ever since.

    So far, yes we do. All evidence is showing it's very mild.

    So far, all evidence shows omicron variant is mild, even milder than the cold. So you have evidence to supporrt otherwise or you just like spreading fear for no reason?

    They've saved a lot of people. From British Columbia, Canada:

    "Past week, cases per 100,000 population after adjusting for age (Nov. 24-30)
    • Not vaccinated: 181.4
    • Partially vaccinated: 45.2
    • Fully vaccinated: 23.2
    Past two weeks, cases hospitalized per 100,000 population after adjusting for age (Nov. 17- 30)
    • Not vaccinated: 34.4
    • Partially vaccinated: 6.0
    • Fully vaccinated: 1.7"

    That's how I translated it also. It seems the left are disappointed that this variant is turning out to be a big nothing.

    This unreasonable (in this case) suspicion of government, which is an American cultural trait that usually is a good one, this time is killing Americans. FYI, yes, governments all over the world manage Public Health. It's exactly one of the tasks governments are for. So, it's incredible that some people prefer to literally die (or acquire severe, permanent, quality-of-life reducing organ damage) to stick it to gubmint.

    Seems to me that generally people are more quiet to the reality that so far, the variant is rather mild and nothing to panic over. And are instead sitting and waiting or even worse...promoting the idea that we can still panic over this variant. Even though all evidence points to it being contagious but mild.

    It's ok. You are allowed to say "as of right now, the variant does appear to be rather mild"...there has been lots of eyes on it so far. I promise that should people infected spontaneously combust after a few months, you can amend your statement and I won't penalize you for it.
