Interesting Twitter thread on to vax or not to vax courtesy of ImpImp and today’s Flubros thread.

Above is an excellent analysis about why vaccine passports are bad and why unvaccinated people tremendously help protect vaccinated people. The key is that repeated exposure to a circulating respiratory virus, from unvaccinated people getting infected, acts as a booster shot for vaccinated individuals. I have linked to this guy’s Twitter account before as he has analyzed many Coronavirus topics in the past year.

One of the reasons that Coronavirus deaths in Florida and Texas has gone down relative to other lockdown/masking states is that people just don’t care to get tested because it is nothing more that a mild sniffle for most. A mild sniffle in a blue state, on the other hand, will motivate the typical lefty who lives there to immediately get tested. Coronavirus basically goes away, if you ignore it. It becomes nothing more than one of hundreds of endemic respiratory viruses that will never go away, but rarely kill.
Does anyone remember the post about preventing covid with a q-tip dipped in something? Maybe peroxide? It was about a month ago. TIA-
If I’m not running a fever with breathing difficulties I’m not getting tested. I had all of that plus some last March and called my doctor. She called in a prescription for a Z-pak, two prescription cough meds, a Prednisone taper, an inhaler, and told me to take Famotidine for the intense stomach pain. She asked if I had a fever and I told her I didn’t have a thermometer and if I did it was low. At the time they wouldn’t give a covid test if you didn’t have a fever. I survived but it took a while to get over.
Heads up. Fake Q on Parler. NO OUTSIDE COMMS.
