We’ve gone from 14 days to flatten the curve to 14 months, to house to house, door to door searches.

Show me your papers.

I did nat see that coming.

I have nothing to fear. COVID didn’t make me sick.

Yet there are those that have died or developed severe reactions to the vaccine. How many lives lost to vaccination is acceptable to you?

June 7th, 2021, VAERS received 5,208 reports of death (0.0017%) so you have a greater than 99% of living after getting the vaccine. so the odds favor getting a vaccine over getting covid.

But, I still think we need to be the ones to try to tone down the discussion. "They" obviously are only interested in confrontational discusssions.

As long as "they" continue to be permitted to post confrontations rather than discussions, this entire forum will continue to be one of confrontation. "They" are in the majority in this community, both on and off line. "They" get to call the shots. Even if those shots are nasty, hate-spewing, uneducated, bigoted, and ignorant. If you dare to call "them" on it, YOU get called nasty.

Talk of the Villages IS the bully pulpit.

In addition, anyone can report to VAERS. If you got a hang-nail while taking a medicine, and report it, then "hangnails" become correlated with taking that medicine. It becomes part of the statistics.

If someone gets hit by a truck and dies of severe brain-hemorrhage, and they just got vaccinated last week, then "brain-hemorrhage" will become one of the possible correlations with the vaccine.

That's just how VAERS works. And it says so in big bold letters when you check the website. But most people ignore those big bold letters and take the information and make up their "facts" to back up their agenda by using it.

If I’m not mistaken, didn’t Asianthree who works in the medical field, decline the vaccinations for now?

As long as those people who are fighting for "freedom of choice" are fighting for the same freedom of a woman to choose what happens to her body, I'll respect their choice. Otherwise, no respect, and "oh well, too bad, so sad" if they get sick as a result of their choice.

Hmmm, seems to work the same way they counted covid-19 deaths.

Something we agree on. The earth, as it turns out, is not flat afterall.

Halle-freakin-lujah.

How do you equate deciding on receiving a vaccine with murdering an unborn child?

It's odd that those numbers are about 50 less than what the WaPo presents. It *could* be that the WaPo accumulates on the day the deaths were reported rather than assigning them to the day they occurred.

The article states 7-day average, not 7-day "daily" average...

No, he lied quite easily, on his own, without any pressure from any particular letter...

I hope you're wrong, because that is the very sort of tyranny people have been preparing to fight against...

Dr. Birk is a woman.

She was under pressure to lie for that president.
