COVID-19 Pandemic (Coronavirus)

[Orbital-Fetus]

when the dude who gave me my booster signed my vax card i noticed there are four spaces for vaccines.
i have one more empty slot...

Everyone is getting COVID now. It's hitting a lot of celebrities/influential people who have been vaccinated. They seem to be doing just fine. You can't hide from this. You're going to get it. If you're vaxxed and I guess now boosted you have very little to worry about, even if you're If you're not vaxxed you have little to worry about in the grand scheme of things, but compared to a vaxxed person you have A LOT to worry about. If you've had a previous infection and unvaxxed you might start worrying if the infection was sometime last year. If you had a previous infection + vaccination you have the best immunity.

What everyone is doing, I don't care. People have been shamed and demonized for 18 months for not "following the rules" or whatever, and it has changed nothing. Stop bytching. Stop crying. Stop stressing. Stress weakens your immune system. You got nikkas scared to go outside, literally, stressed and BOOM, Omi puts you through the ringer. Do you remember when the original strain was able to get to people who were basically locked in their houses pre vaccine? You think you can hide from Omicron? Maybe you think you can but don't shyt on others for not wanting to be fukking hermits for the next.......eternity, because the shyt isn't going away. I know some of y'all are probably obese but if you're vaxxed you should be okay. You're only going to get fatter and more susceptible to the disease and other ailments if you hide out at home laying around posting on the internet about how scary life is right now.

What they need to do is stop with the 10 day quarantine if ur vaxxed and have no symptoms or can test negative beforehand...THATS also fukking the hospitals bc staff is short due to a old ass rule from the beginning before he had vaxx and data...

omnicron has been shown to show up after testing negative for 3 or 4 days.

- despite getting 4 jabs people STILL getting sick

This virus is 2 years old and has mutated about 10 times among unvaccinated populations, not vaccinated populations. The point of the vaccines was to induce YOUR immune system to react as if you were infected and create antibodies to fight it off. Same protection with little/no risk of infection.​

Your argument seems to be a misunderstanding of what vaccines do and confusing efficacy with effectiveness. Efficacy applies to lab testing which was conducted in-full in a controlled environment among almost 200,000 volunteers for almost a year. Effectiveness is measured in real-world situations under NO controls. Conflating the terms is why people seem to be 'moving the goalpost', but that isn't the case.

The vaccines work. This is an indisputable fact proven by the amount of unvaccinated people hospitalized/dead since the vaccines don't work like force fields.

They work like seatbelts.

Seatbelts don't stop accidents but GREATLY improve your chances of surviving one with little/no injuries.​

if it wasn't for CNN and the democrats, no one would have any idea we were in a "pandemic". i know i sure as fukk wouldn't

I swear some of you cats are legitimately fukking retarded. I hope you don't have kids.

1st off, not everything is politics. Some of us work in hospitals and/or know people that do. Some of us know people currently in the hospital with covid.

My home girl's mom just died from the shyt like 2-3 days ago. Her sister just got out of ICU after 2 weeks.

So the idea that the sole reason people know this shyt is going on, is CNN and/or democrats....again, are you developmentally challenged?

It's like you cats have a fair idea (make your choice about the vaccine) and then completely shyt the bed tying it all together (CNN and the democrats) because your politics are more important than common sense.

omnicron has been shown to show up after testing negative for 3 or 4 days.

So it will show up positive then you can test negative and you claim it will again show up 3 or 4 days after you test negative?

So if you get this and bring it home or bring it to family and friends that are more likely to have a bad outcome you're cool with this because "oh well everyone is going to get it."

I read everything you posted and all I really see is "It won't happen to me." You've convinced yourself this isn't a threat to you. That's fine. Just know anti-vaxxers use your same logic from a different starting point. They also convince themselves this isn't a threat. Either of you believing that doesn't make it true. Only reality can sort that out.

I haven't seen any reports of that happening.

there a shyt load of people who are hospitalized or dead who were incredibly optimistic about their chances of surviving coivid.

a bunch of people featured in these subreddits have made similar statements about covid like posters on the thecoli have and they're either now suffering or dead.

literally gambling with their health and the health of people they come into contact with.

Omicron becoming the dominant variant is a good sign

Delta was way more lethal

 

[humminbird]

people get mad at vaccinated people for still being cautious now?
news flash we took it because we don't want to get covid. No one wants to hang out with your nasty asses anyway

Omicron becoming the dominant variant is a good sign

Delta was way more lethal

ok it becomes dominant and then what, a life of people getting covid every 2 months or so? have you seen the R0 value?

Omicron driving up Canada’s R value at ‘unprecedented’ rate. Here’s what that means - National | Globalnews.ca

snippet:

The R value for the variants combined shows the pandemic is not yet over, but the Omicron figure paints a starker image – that if preventative measures are not enacted the pandemic could spiral out of control.

Essentially, one person would be infecting four people, who would then infect 16 and then 64 people who would infect 256 people and so on. The doubling effect would occur every five days.

If the R value were to hold true, it could cripple the Canadian health system in a few months, as millions of Canadians would be infected and re-infected with COVID.

it's more transmissible than the common cold and with worse symptoms. we have yet to see in a large scale study how people fare after multiple(3+) positive covid infections.

edit:

this said omnicron R0 could be as high as 10.

The original strain of SARS-CoV-2 has an R0 of 2·5, while the delta variant (B.1.617.2) has an R0 of just under 7. Martin Hibberd, professor of emerging infectious diseases at London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (London, UK), reckons omicron's R0 could be as high as 10. In the UK, cases of omicron are doubling every 2–3 days, which puts it on track to supplant delta as the dominant variant in the country by mid-December. It also complicates control efforts. “Contact tracing works well if you have about a week between one infection and the next”, explained Hibberd, “But it is almost impossible to make it work if you only have 2 or 3 days between infections. We may have to rely on other measures, like daily testing.”

We will know by mid jan how serious this is

Lets see if people end up in hospitals

 

[Malcolmxxx_23]

UK data is definitely worth noting, they have less people hospitalized than they did 2 weeks/1 month ago


@Absolut

Even after 90k cases per day
