It is also not a percentage of deaths in the general population being shown there. It is a percentage of Covid-19 deaths from all deaths broken down by age groups.

People get really upset when you point it out.

Had it. Have comorbidities. Never knew I had it until I was tested and they found antibodies. Husband and parents tested clean.

Uncle tested positive, has MAJOR comorbidities. Lost his sense of taste and smell, nothing else. Wife, son and grandchild all tested negative.

This whole thing smells.

Not taking their vaccine.

You do it if you want.

You decide for you. I decide for me.

So....if I volunteer to get a vaccination, we get back to "normal?"

Sorry, I am not buying this. If they are going to lock me down and force me to wear the face diaper anyway, why get the vaccine?

The chart you are using is of dead people by age group with the percentage of dead caused by Covid. Not the probability of dying of Covid. See the difference?

The real risk is incredibly small

99.99+% survival rate for all demographics except the oldest, which is about 94.5%, and almost all of those who died had other pre-existing conditions that made them more likely to die from anything/everything else they could get

Nope. Not taking it. Even that little hobbit Fauci came out and said it can’t prevent against infection. If true, why take it? (I really don’t like that little futher mucker.)

So what happens if one of these healthcare workers who refuses the vaccine gets COVID and passes it on to numerous co-workers or patients at risk?

Would the worker or hospital be liable? And if not, who would want that on their conscience?

It’s one thing if you refuse the vaccine and don’t come into contact with others, esp. those who are sick. It’s another if you closely interact with 100’s of people, many of whom are sick, on a daily basis.

I know three people whose elderly parents in either senior care or the, hospital who got COVID from a staff member and died. It happens quite frequently, even with strict precautions.

Do you have a source to back up that statement?

True, deaths BY Covid are very, very small. Deaths WITH Covid hyped up. In my small circle, 220-250 people I come in contact with ( much,much more if I count everyone at work, about 1200), 7 tested positive, 5 of them had little or no symptoms ( sniffles and one had loss of smell) , 1 ( mid fifties, 360 lbs) had bad headaches and teethe pain, one (84 years old) died and not sure if he died with Covid or died of Covid. Hardly worth taking a questionable vaccine for such a nothing burger threat. I am so tired of the fear, what has become of our people?

Dumbed down in every direction, encouraged on all fronts by every level of government

Having just had the ‘Rona for Christmas...I found that it was not as bad as has been suggested.

For myself and my family the ‘Rona was not as bad as we had been led to believe. My wife (age 50) was sick like the flu for about 5 days starting Christmas Eve and ending Tuesday last. I (age 58) was nominally sick for about 36 hours. For both of my sons aged 12 and 14, they were both similar to myself at about 36-48 hours.

We may be outliers, and I was prepared for a significant adverse event and had made my peace with my own mortality.

The question becomes: what is the rate of adverse events? We know that the over 70 crowd, has significant risk, the 60 and under crowd it is 0.06%.

Does the purported risk offset the cost to everyone else.

The only stinkier thing than the Covid hoax, is the Georgia election results....both have been corrupted beyond comprehension. With all the corruption and lying that has been exposed in every single sector of our society these last four years, the last people I will believe is any government agency, politician, “ science”, “expert”, or left leaning person. The only thing left to believe, study, and act upon is God’s word.

A questionable vaccine for a disease with a 99.7% recovery rate...

This has NEVER been about COVID. It has ALWAYS been about control. This has been a test of the American People.

We have failed the test...miserably.

Everyone does it different. We have quite a few friends that have had it and recovered. All had different levels of it,

He set off my alarm bells from the beginning.

Nothing I could put my finger, on just a distant bell.

Did my best to be a good citizen back before Easter. Now do not give a hoot.

Sure. Let the vulnerable population get the vaccine. Let the rest of us gain our natural antibodies.

Bwaahahaha. Seems no one really knows this virus. I'm an scientist; I'm an MD; I'm a epidemiologist; I'm a virus expert; I'm an official of CDC; I'm an official WHO; I'm doctor Frodley and change my stance every month, because I'm an expert; I'm a statistician and know my shit because I can put DR in front of my name. "Say what? Statistics have variables that can't be accounted for? I didn't know that while writing my thesis for my doctorate degree. Thank you, Mr Professor"

Above all: I'm a politician and knows what's bestest for you.
Follow me to the French Laundry with explosively high priced menu; follow me to Pelosis' Hair Salon; follow me as the Chicago Mayor Lightfeets gets her hair cut at a salon; follow me as some dipwad told us to stay at home while Skyping from Cabo San Lucas in his hotel.

ALL without masks. Say again, ALL without masks. You dumbass socialists think they are on your side. You're not. They are all on their own side.
