Texas Gov. Abbott has tested positive for COVID-19

Insider Paper ^ | 08/17/21 | Brendan Taylor

[walkingdead]

The crazy part is the powers that be have convinced people that those without symptoms are sick. We used to call those with no symptoms well.

[vaskypilot]

The article states he is tested daily. I bet the test is a false positive.

[Cobra64]

Most likely more people have got COVID and didn’t know it than has been reported. My wife and I had it, and never told anybody because we don’t subscribe to the hyperbole and non-stop soap opera crisis.

[House Atreides]

“Pretty amazing that while being “so rare” for fully vaccinated people to get COVID thete are so many reports of famous or high profile people that are fully vaccinated people are getting Batflu.

The vaccine is working fine. ~sarc”

Get some HCQ and zinc, Governor, and do deep breaths daily to test your lung capacity.

He's getting much better than that. He's getting Regeneron monoclonal antibodies. Something that actually works.

I was going to post that, but you beat me to it. Vaccination was never advertised to prevent COVID. I don’t know where people are getting that false information. Our family doctor told us back in February that that the vaccination was to minimize the symptoms, and told us how it worked.

[frogjerk]

So is it a case or not according to you?

[Dalberg-Acton]

“Vaccination was never advertised to prevent COVID.

Are you sure of that? Never?

The commie libs on Twitter are celebrating

[MuttTheHoople]

Playing with COVID is like playing Russian Roulette...with a 10,000 round revolver and one bullet in the chamber.

[SoConPubbie]

Yeah, it's a pandemic of the unvaccinated. The vaccinated barely notice COVID-19 is still a thing. Roll the dice if you like. That's always an option.

More Government Pro-Vaccine Propaganda Bullshit!

These vaccines have cause more damage, more deaths then all other vaccines combined in the history of the CDC and the VAERS system.

And we know that the VAERS system historically only records between 1% and 5% of actual cases/deaths.

So the reported number of 13,000+ deaths is actually somewhere north of at least 100,000.

Go push the Propaganda elsewhere.

There seems to be a progression in the claims: (1) the vax will prevent infection; (2) the vax will prevent serious symptoms; (3) the vax will prevent serious symptoms in MOST people; (4) the vax loses effectiveness after six to eight months and will require a booster shot. Who knows what version #5 will be?

“ So is it a case or not according to you?”

Well, in post 15 (“getting Batflu”) above you apparently do. I usually put “case” in parenthesis when it’s regarding a “positive” PCR test of an asymptomatic person. Hell, I don’t think we should even be routinely testing asymptomatic individuals. So no, I don’t consider it to be a disease case (i.e., without the parentheses). It’s highly likely that he is not contagious, IMHO.

Vaccination was never advertised to prevent COVID.

The disclaimer you now cling to was never repeated nor emphasized as great as it being done now because of the increasing failure rate of these vaccines. A bait and switch, used car salesman con-job if there ever was one.

[week 71]

@ 26 Glad he was honest that it does not prevent disease. Hopefully he was honest and disclosed we have NO idea of long term health effects as the treatments were only tested for a few months with no animal studies.

[Quickgun]

I’ve never seen it advertised to prevent COVID.It was advertised to prevent the need for medical intervention if you did get COVID, by up to 85%, and preventdeath from COVID by near 100%.Iv’e seen nothing in my area to disprove that. I’ve lost one family member and one friend to COVID. One passed away before the vaccines were available, and one wouldn’t take the vaccine.

[epluribus_2]

yes but if you were going to be dying soon anyway, the vaccine helps you not die of covid, just with covid. Big difference.

[frogjerk]

How can you say he is highly unlikely to be contagious when all we have been fed is that asymptomatic individuals can spread it easily (hence mandatory masking to “protect others”) and the recent revelation that delta viral load in vaccinated individuals are similar to the unvaccinated?

[Sooner Gal]

WRONG! I don’t know how to post a picture, but I’ll quote the first few paragraphs from the fact sheet I was given when I scheduled “the jab” in April:
