As we lurch into pandemic year two, I find myself strangely reluctant to leave my pandemic cocoon. Not a week goes by without someone asking if I’ve gotten my “Get Out of Jail Free” card — the vaccine — but until recently, I’ve told almost no one that I got the shots last month. How could it be that now, with my escape route in sight, I shrink from the exit

Have not missed a days work where I come in contact with hundreds every day.
No vaccine as I really do not trust the federal gub mint.
Stay in your cocoon snowflake while I enjoy my life.

I bet this moron wears a muzzle while home alone too.
People LOVE their masks and now they don't want to leave the tombs they have built for themselves. They love having people drop off their store goods in their trunk as they wait in their car, refusing to get out and go into a store.
Absolutely astonishing. We have turned into an even more lazy, scared, wimpy society. We no long want to control our own lives. We now want the government, or anyone, to tell us what to do and how to live.
Think about it, our society has lost our collective will of self determination. We have shrunk back into a people who want - yes, want, other people, and the government, to order their everyday lives.
Incredible, this transformation.
They walk (or don’t) among us. But, if it makes this entity feel better, then we don’t have to deal with them. ‘That’ is a plus. We have an acquaintance that hasn’t really been out since this got serious(?) and his wife is skerred real bad about it so......... Not sure if we’ll ever see him out again. Sadly, a LOT of folks have bought the lie.
Yes but not for safety, I bet.
In fairness, he probably has AIDS.
COVID and HIV is probably a death sentence.
Yup. For the most part.
The author sounds like a typical liberal scared of his own shadow.
10 to 1 he wears a mask while driving alone in he car.
It appears that this confirms some of the predictions and since viruses have a habit of mutating we may not have seen the end of it yet.
CCP Virus Variant Affects Vaccinated People More Than Unvaccinated People: Study
BY JACK PHILLIPS
April 11, 2021 Updated: April 11, 2021
A study from Tel Aviv University found that a South African variant of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus affects people vaccinated with the Pfizer shot more than unvaccinated people.
The study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, indicated that the B.1.351 variant of the virus—also known as the novel coronavirus—was found eight times more than individuals who were unvaccinated, or 5.4 percent against 0.7 percent. Clalit Health Services, a top Israeli health-care provider, also helped in the study.
“We found a disproportionately higher rate of the South African variant among people vaccinated with a second dose, compared to the unvaccinated group,” said Adi Stern of Tel Aviv University. “This means that the South African variant is able, to some extent, to break through the vaccine’s protection.”
The study looked at 400 people who received at least one shot of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and had contracted the COVID-19 variant and compared them to the same number of people who were infected and unvaccinated. Moderna’s vaccine is also used in Israel, but it was not included in the study.
“It is the first in the world to be based on real-world data, showing that the vaccine is less effective against the South Africa variant, compared to both the original virus and the British variant,” said Professor Ran Balicer, director of research at Clalit, according to news reports.
Stern said the study’s findings came as a surprise.
“Based on patterns in the general population, we would have expected just one case of the South African variant, but we saw eight,” Stern told the Times of Israel. “Obviously, this result didn’t make me happy.” He added, “Even if the South African variant does break through the vaccine’s protection, it has not spread widely through the population.”
He continued: “These preliminary findings necessitates close continued attention to the dissemination of this strain in Israel, emphasizing the need for epidemiological monitoring and systematic sequencing, in order to contain further spread of the South African variant in Israel.”
The South African variant accounted for less than one percent of all COVID-19 cases in Israel, reported AFP, citing the study.
“This means that the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccine, though highly protective, probably does not provide the same level of protection against the South African (B.1.351) variant of the coronavirus,” the study said.
Israel, separately, has rolled out a so-called “vaccine passport” system that allows people who have been vaccinated privileges over individuals who are not vaccinated. Such systems have been criticized by civil liberties groups, saying it would be an infringement on people’s rights, including privacy, and would potentially create a two-tiered class system of vaccinated and unvaccinated people.
The Epoch Times has contacted Pfizer for comment.
LMAO!
So you are buying this whole scam, hook line and sinker. That’s to bad.
Really disappointed in the lack of information in this article. We could be, probably are, talking infinitesimal percentages here. If the SA variant ( it’s once again OK to use country of origin if it’s not China) makes up 1% of the infections, does this test group of 400 represent that 1%? So with the vaccine you are somewhat (8x) more likely to be in the 1% infected? So what, your chances are 99.8 not 99.9% safe? And what was the make-up of this 400 test group, what conditions did they have?
Sage advice.
Why can’t this estrogen-laden loon just off himself and leave everyone else alone?
Well,that’s your problem.
You know those type of people never let everyone else alone. They always stir up as much mischief as they can.
Please tell me this is really from the Babylon Bee, because if people like this really exist in this world, I want off.
