Vaccine

On behalf of San Diego I would like recognize the Bay Area contributions to preventing the spread of the virus with the "1st Annual Covid Awesomeness Award". Everything is Awesome!

(Please pay no attention to the rampant crime and the mass homelessness in the Bay Area, they've done really awesome with Covid. Just watch your step when you're in the City).

The best part about an N95 is that it makes it harder to smell the urine on the sidewalk.

Hahahah, yeah @Grace T., I'm part of the problem. Yet, I live in a county where everything is open, our teachers aren't protesting, our grocery stores are fully stocked, high school sports are still on, our hospitals aren't impacted, and my kids can play indoor sports. This is apparently, in stark contrast with what you're seeing based on many of your recent posts. Keep trying.

The point I was making about not going to restaurants was that vaccinated people didn't get the jab(s) and just galavant around town as implied by the poster I was responding to. In our highly aware neck of the woods people mostly did the right thing. Which is a BIG reason why the Bay Area hasn't been as impacted as other areas.

During the pre-vaccine era of covid when everyone was trying to figure things out we locked down. Suffice it to say, we really didn't need a mandate to do that. We still supported our local restaurants when they opened by getting take-out (still tipping 20-30%). We actually found take-out brought us closer as a family. Post vaccine we did go to restaurants a couple of times only to find the experience wasn't as intimate as what we had been doing. Then delta hit and we decided to take it easy again. Ultimately we prioritized the things that were important to our family. We focused on outdoor activities and spending time with close friends and family. This whole experience has brought our family closer and honestly we're pretty dang happy.

But continue on @Grace T. with your doom and gloom and arguing whatever it is that you're arguing.

1. Limiting going out to eat to two times in two years, including postvaxx, is not "normal". You are fundamentally altering life (and expecting others to behave similarly and treat that as normal) out of fear of catching a cold.
2. The blue areas we've been complaining about wouldn't be in that state if it wasn't for COVID restrictions. The COVID restrictions are the main problem. See Virginia and the changes going on there for an example.
3. With respect to the take out, you do realize that other workers that couldn't work remotely had to make that takeout in cramped conditions that put them at risk and rendered the lockdowns meaningless while you were safe at home?
4. The kids are not all right, particularly in blue areas. See the articles I posted for a summary why.

Not saying no test avoidance. Just saying that test avoidance cannot possibly explain the fact that unvaccinated people are 4X as likely to test positive in SCC. You’d need 75% of vaccinated people to skip the test. Hard for your family to skip the test when your kid can’t go to school without one.

CDC tracks things like “test positivity rate by vaccination status”. If you’re actually curious, you can read how the real numbers work.

If you’re just looking for an excuse to claim vaccines don’t work, I‘m sure Joe Rogan has a guest who will tell you what you want to hear.

Its actually about 3xs, but the amount of cases has always been a question mark to me, so I don't really even pay attention to that number. And @Brav520 makes an excellent point about who is checking on vaxx status at testing sites. If you think they are cross referencing those, you are crazy. When I tested positive they told me they couldn't tell me what variant it was because there were too many test coming in at the time so they were checking for variants. If they are only checking vaxx status at the hospitals where mostly unvaccinated people are, then there you go.

Not saying the vaxx doesn't work, never have said that. I only wish vaccinated and the ridiculous President would stop trying to blame it on the unvaccinated. A Pandemic of the Unvaccinated??? Really, that's Ridiculous!!! So many vaccinated act like they are above it and have nothing to do with what is going on, when in actuality they are probably the most likely reason for the current spike!!!
 
I will highlight this again.

“Before the Delta variant, Covid-19 vaccination resulted in better protection against a subsequent infection than surviving a previous infection,” CDC official Benjamin Silk said. “When looking at the summer and fall of 2021, when Delta became predominant in this country, however, surviving a previous infection now provided greater protection.”

My god, please, put the keyboard down and go for a walk. Nobody with an ounce of intelligence ever thought the vaccine was 100% effective. We are a fully vax'd family we've been to a restaurant in person (outdoors) two times in the last two years. You are greatly mistaken in thinking all vax'd people thought they were invincible after getting the jabs -- that's because we understand the basics of percentages.

Clearly you do not talk with, or hang out with, many other families or friends seeing that you have been only out 2 times in the past 2 years. That is very sad and you write that as if you are proud. I never said all vax'd, but I know a lot that felt they couldn't get covid since they had been, and the numbers prove it. Since your circle seems very small, I am telling you that there were a lot of people who thought they were invincible after getting the jab. If you look at the age group of people getting infected you can see it is those 30 and under, who by the way generally have the attitude of being invincible, but I am pretty sure you arent around people that age.

Wow. I am certain that you have no service members in any part of your family history, because that is not acceptable for all that those before us went through!

Have you heard of:

California Immunization Registry

cairweb.org cairweb.org

Get ready for your heads to explode as you realize Big Gov knows if you're vaccinated or not.

Yeah, you're right, I've only been out of the house 2 times in the last 2 years. Your reading comprehension is bar none.

I do not know any of these "invincible" vax'd people you speak of. You sure your not confused with all the Richards and Karens going into stores unmasked and denying the virus even exists?

What numbers prove what? What are you even talking about?
