[GeauxLSU]

look i have the virus as we speak. it sucks not going to lie. you want the vac. to save your time, sanity and or family from bs. I haven't taste or smelt food in a long time. its a different world an I dont think I have a bad case. in fact I know how lucky I am and family. but with that being said a little advice to yall. it will find you mask or not but remember..... just because you can take the hottest hot sauce and drink it with out any problem. you will feel it coming out. you have been warned!

lol thanks for the warning about the sauce. I think.
Hang in there. Hope you get on the other side of it quickly!

Hell no

Is this pointless vaccine, probably full of mercury just like the flu shot, going to solve the primer shortage issue. If it is, I'll be holding a sign up and help rounding up enough sheep to get in line for their shot, for all we know it could be sugar water and you'd never know it. Why inject yourself with something you have no idea whats in it? Either way, I sure hope it cures the ammo and primer shortage.

And yet that is less than half the number of all deaths for all of 2019. The CDC appears to count covid deaths like they were Biden ballots. Vaccines are a mixed bag. According to a relative who is also a Pharmacist. There are some she will not allow her children to receive, and some she insists they get.
From my own ignorance I wonder why they can't simply employ CRISPR to target the specific rna sequence of the Covid-19, a gene therapy approach. Then again I am not an epidemiologist.

Sure, let's take this conversation in a WHOLE other political direction.

Also, FYI, CRISPR is being used by some companies but development time is longer and somewhat less proven. I am quite sure that if one of those companies had been first to market, there would still be a group of naysayers and conspiracy theorists.

I tend to lean on the expertise of the CDC rather than that of your relative the pharmacist. My wife is in the medical profession and my daughter is a biologist with a LOT of training in epidemiology, but I still rely on the CDC for expert opinions.

Just my humble opinion.....

I think it isn't for me.

Well you know what they say about opinions....

Funny how the stories change. I seem to remember a whole different attitude during the Ebola issue. In addition, I believe a lot of doctors, nurses and scientists from hear and around the world, as well as the patients they have saved from countless other diseases would most likely say otherwise.

Again, just one guy's opinion....

Unfortunately politics absorbs everything like a black hole. The folks on the ground at CDC are all about infectious disease. The ones I know would love to be left out of the political arena so they can work. What I like is that CDC website publishes everything. You can read the studies themselves. You don’t have to get it through a media filter. Hell the FDA just published the entire report Feiser submitted for vaccine approval. It’s 53 pages of absolutely, overwhelmingly, boring data.

Yes politics absorbs all things and then regurgitates them as political spin for the sake of power. IMO CDC is one place you can still go and see the raw material before the political spin.
