And that is the point I have been making now for some time.
We don't know what the long term affects are. To mandate healthy people with little to no risk of the virus to take a shot is not ethical/good policy, etc.

I hope sanity returns sometimes soon.
Men competing against women...and breaking women's records.
You want to pretend you are a woman and dress up like one...have at it. Very few care.
You want to pretend you are a women and compete against them in WOMEN's sports sorry pal. A bridge too far.
It is a farce. And too many people won't say anything because they don't want to be called a bigot or whatever.
After the race, the teammate said, Thomas could be overheard bragging, 'That was so easy, I was cruising,' before adding, 'At least I'm still No. 1 in the country.'

At some point women need to stand up and say enough.
Right now the pressure is on these women to shut up.
In the week after the Zippy Invitational, two of Thomas' female UPenn teammates anonymously spoke out about their frustrations of having a transgender teammate, despite the entire team being 'strongly advised' not to speak to the media.
One of the swimmers told sports website OutKick that UPenn swimmers were upset and crying as they knew their times were going to be obliterated by her.
'Usually everyone claps, everyone is yelling and cheering when someone wins a race,' she said of the Zippy Invitational. 'Lia touched the wall and it was just silent in there. When fellow Penn swimmer Anna Kalandadze finished second, the crowd erupted in applause.'

More and more people are starting to come to terms with reality.
Meanwhile, the Omicron variant looks likely to be Delta on steroids when it comes to how fast it spreads. Even if, as the initial evidence suggests, it usually causes milder disease, Omicron will cause a huge wave of cases in vaccinated people who could pass it on.
Why isn't that an argument for tightening restrictions? For three reasons.
First, because many — likely most — people simply won't observe a lockdown at this point. Indeed, many people are no longer willing to abide by even more modest restrictions like masking. If your policy is to do something that won't be done, you don't really have a policy.

Moreover, the unvaccinated-by-choice are in many cases less likely to limit their behaviors in other ways. The COVID-conscious, in other words, are mostly protecting people who don't really need it, because they can do little to protect those who do.
Second, even if there were a high rate of compliance, Delta and Omicron are so contagious there is no plausible non-pharmaceutical intervention that could contain them. The measures we used earlier in the pandemic were only partially effective then. They would be completely overwhelmed now. At best, we might modestly slow the spread while it continues to scythe its way through the population.
And third, we no longer need to flatten the curve. Early in the pandemic, we needed to buy time to understand the virus better, to develop treatments, and to stand up a full-fledged testing-and-tracing infrastructure to facilitate containment, which we never did. Since containment has comprehensively failed, most everyone on earth will either be vaccinated or infected eventually. We now have enough vaccines domestically to cover everyone multiple times over. So what exactly are we buying time for?

The pandemic is real and serious. But for most of us, it's time to return to normal.

Another concession that the vaccination doesn't prevent spread of the virus. Yet the government is still trying to mandate the vaccination.

CNN and the NY Times are already discussing who could run in Biden's place..."hypothetically". The handwriting is on the wall. The MSM will have to find stories other than Biden as they hold their breath until the Democrat primaries. Get used to wall to wall Jan 6 coverage.
The Democrats will only have themselves to blame if Trump runs in 2024. Unfortunately, its setting up perfectly for him. Everyone, regardless of party, should be hoping that a strong Republican candidate rises to challenge Trump.
I appreciate your honesty Wat Fly. The two party dance is over bro. I think we will have about 5 top groups when the dust settles and then the rest will just be radicals in the weeds and will fade away. The Honest & Truth Seeking Liberals, Conservatives, Progressives, Religious Folks and The Free Thinkers will rule the planet. Merit based competition, helping humanity & creativity will rule the land. No more kickbacks and no more pay to play. No more buying, bribing and then blackmailing suckers who cheat to get to the top of this bullshit system we were born into. Times are changing 100%
t is just the dart board. He took darts for you brother. He loves you more then you'll ever know. I said on this forum I had a dream a few years ago that all the t haters were crying and saying sorry for all their hate towards the Lion Mr. Trump. It's amazing how much hate people had and some still have towards one man. Look at all those WHO were hunting t down with all the impeaches, hoaxes and smearing???? Step downs, arrested, resigning and so much more. Talk about, "where are they now?((The haters)). This President got censored as the sitting President of the Untied States of America and the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces by Jack & Mark. Do you not see the problem? Trump said he would make it his administrations #1 priority, which was to END HUMAN TRAFFICKING!!! Do you see????
Fair enough. No vaccine mandate for men under 30 who can run a 6 minute mile. Require it for everyone else over 18.
That should adequately cover the legitimate portion of your concern.
Is that running with or without a mask on? So in your Dad world world, no one is allowed religious excuse to say no to jab?

It's going to be tough to prop up the cardboard cutout that Biden has been since the beginning of the primaries for another 2 years and 10 months. It's not like they have a popular/competent VP backing him up.
DeSantis works for me. No more Trump, please.

Flu vaccines don't match the main circulating flu virus strain, researchers find | CNN
One of the main circulating influenza viruses has changed and the current flu vaccines don't match it well any more -- an indication they may not do much to prevent infection, researchers reported Thursday. But they are still likely to prevent severe illness.

Desantis is just mini-t.

really?
I'd prefer a Haley/Scott ticket. If DeSantis does run the mini-t claim will be the left's go to talking point, since they won't have the policies to defeat him.

I typically don't follow it too closely until the time comes. I am open to changing my mind.
For the D side, Wes Moore is one to watch but it's too early this Presidential election cycle as he is running for Governor of MD. Listen to him speak. He avoids the victim mentality that many of the proudly woke trumpet and has a positive message as well as an interesting background. I can't say I know anything about his policies.
