IMO We should form clubs of the vaxxed residents and have our own times for pool shooting, swimming pool use, card clubs, investment clubs, indoor volleyball, water volleyball, and vaccinate EVERYTHING. Even whole leagues of golf, tennis, pickleball, softball, and ETC! Corporations are moving that way - some will be vaccinated and some may be evangelical corporations of the UNvaxxed. Some whole countries are HIGHLY vaccinated like Portugal (98%). And there will be more like that !!!!!! And yes, if I had the cash and the family agreement and Portugal would let me in - I would be OUTTA here on the 1st plane or boat. I could rent there until all the UNvaxxed people in the US have gone - " to graveyards everyone". I wonder if my buddy Bezos would yacht me there? Portugal that is, not to graveyards.

I watched it for a while because I thought it very interesting and entertaining. I didn't see any fault in what he said, but then again that may be in the eyes of the beholder. I haven't watched FOX for a long time, and rarely watch any of the left sided media news(?)/propaganda networks either, other than the local news to hear the weather report in the morning.
In my opinion, Fauci brings on the attacks, by being available for cretins to grill him until he makes a controversial comment. To be honest with you, I have never liked what the man has said, and even less how he has spoken politically. If he is truly linked to subsidizing the covid studies in Wuhan, I give him partial blame for this mess we are enduring right now. That said, I do not know him personally. If he was as smart as he says he is, then he would keep his mouth shut and let the CDC speak about this mess instead of him.

If 40% of the US population were 1/2 as smart as DOCTOR Fauci, that would give them an IQ of around 100 and THEN and only then would we have a 98% CV vaccination rate (probably last year)! And our US CV problem would be a distant memory! Also, we would have National Health Care. We would have an average citizen's wealth as high as Switzerland and Finland. WE would be higher than 30th in the world in "Quality of Life". We would all be about 2 inches taller. We would have put racism to rest (RIP) about 1985. We would be living the "life of Reily" (an old expression). We would all be driving electric cars and trucks and NEVER any smelly, stinky, noisy gas-infernal combustion Golf Cars! And driverless A.I. vehicles would be on the streets!
.... and I could keep up that dream world, but we traded all that so that certain people could pay less income and property taxes and not bother to support upward mobility and education - because they got theirs and to h*l* with you! And anytime a middle class develops or gets stronger they just knock it back down by bringing more ignoramuses immigrants into USA-Land!
.... And THAT is how you use science to improve America. You heard it 1st here....sports fans

It is the smushing together of the Vaccinated and the non-vaccinated that is causing all the problems in the US - whether that is at church, sports events, or anywhere! Portugal does NOT have that problem; they are 98% vaccinated. That is to dream for!

Why do you keep repeating that false information?

Except for you? Why is that? Plus your run on sentence sounds like all of you didn't get together. That's why the responder said that's sad.

No they do not. They have an 84% rate. I've shown you the proof, yet you insist on perpetuating misinformation. Why is that?

I agree and let's look at the opinions of DEAD BODIES !!!!!!! In Florida, in 10 months 55,000 Florida citizens have died. In 10 years of the US fighting in Vietnam, we lost 58,000 American soldiers........ SOMETHING is going on here
.......and what it is
is definitely clear
.......There is a man over there
saying step out of
that vaccination line

I'd like to know if "just obey" is a motto of a new dark web media site? Or is it new teenage slang?

Do you live in a black and white world? Is everything 100% or zero? Because that is how your posts sound.

If thw UNvaccinated get CV (with the new Delta variant) they are LIKELY to be painfully hospitalized and die or have LONG-TERM CV. If the vaccinated get it (a very small number) they avoid the hospital and do NOT die. To die or NOT to die, that is the question - whether is better to exist in an unreal Science-denying world or get your vaccine and show off that big BRAIN of yours.

What utter insensitivity! To dismiss the lives of 1.5% of Covid victims as though they are insignificant because the percent is relatively small, and the devastation to their family members for the same reason, is shocking. We hear enough stories of “tune changing” when this dreadful disease hits home, at which point it’s too late. And this doesn’t even address long-term health issues of Covid survivors (who will perhaps also be dismissed as insignificant because, at least as far as we know at this point, the percentage is also small). How terribly sad for those affected!

The Florida governor got vaccinated early on!

Common sense and pragmatic thinking is all that is needed to understand any of these post.

Education attainment is non-linearly correlated to intelligence. Non-congruent means something else.

And while on the subject, there have been any number of posters that are piling on Tony Fauci like he is the bad guy. To all of you that think that, you have no idea what you are talking about, and I don't care what you read on which conspiracy web site. Do you know him? Have you had dinner with him several times? Have you talked with him for an hour or two? If not, you need to zip it. If you had, you would have a better idea of what Tony is all about.

I agree with the content of this post!

Not true. If you look at the stats on infections today and the death rate, you will see how far off you are. And now with the treatment available, there has been a 50% decrease in hospitalizations in Florida. That's "science" and no one is "denying" it.

You see that thumbs up symbol at the bottom of the post? That will convey the same message.

Someone ate too many paint chips as a kid.
