Bad News Thread

What's the deal with this new medical term called "Vaccidents?" I hear folks on the way back from getting shot have a stroke and crash into wall? This is not satire and not a joke and not being Pokey. It's an honest question. Has anyone heard about this?

Fauci seems confused despite Guthrie trying to help him out but he seems to suggest a vaccinated or unvaccinated adult can walk home without a mask, but a child can't, despite the child being at lower risk than the unvaccinated adult and COVID only very rarely seriously impacts them

I saw that this morning. He's the undisputed king of mixed messaging which is pretty impressive since he has a lot of competition. How he is still the face of national Covid policy is mind boggling...well actually I know how, he is politically untouchable and the media has given him cult level status.

We're all screwed for the next pandemic. The "crying wolf" by experts, politicians and the media will make compliance, even to good faith restrictions, relatively low.

The virus in most situations was not highly contagious and very rarely fatal, except for the most compromised. The most dangerous thing about this virus was its unpredictability.

No doubt - you can't put the genie back in the bottle.

It was political from day one, both sides at fault. Every layer of the response/services infrastructure has been infected and paralyzed by picking a side.

Yellow, even with the adjustments, was always going to be close to but not quite impossible to get to for some counties.....

Yellow was never impossible. Back in early March, most CA counties were on pace to hit yellow some time in April. Cases were falling by 50% every two weeks. If we had kept it up, statewide cases would be at about 300 right now, and every county would be in yellow.

That’s not what we did. In early March, we decided that opening restaurants was more important than low case counts or in person school. As a result, our progress froze and we’ve been hovering at 2-3K cases per day.

But don’t say it is impossible to drive case counts down. We did it for a good two months before we decided that pasta carbonara was more important.

I have a hard time understanding how someone can easily cast aside the health and welfare of an entire group of people. We can walk and chew gum. Is 2-3K cases a day a load that the healthcare system can't tolerate? How many asymptomatic cases are a percentage of 2-3K a day?

I'm not really looking for a response from you, we see this through different lenses.

That was the most infuriating interview to watch!

Further cements my belief that Faucci has an agenda or is now starving for attention like a Khardashian.
 
So everyone at that speech has been vaccinated. Why exactly are they all wearing masks?

Shouldn't the message be once vaccinated all is good?

And yet you have a roomful of people all vaccinated wearing masks.
