Unvaccinated people are 'variant factories,' infectious diseases expert says
Time ^ | 7/3/2021 | Maggie Fox, CNN

Posted on 07/03/2021 9:35:00 PM PDT by Right Wing Vegan

Unvaccinated people do more than merely risk their own health. They're also a risk to everyone if they become infected with coronavirus, infectious disease specialists say. That's because the only source of new coronavirus variants is the body of an infected person. "Unvaccinated people are potential variant factories," Dr. William Schaffner, a professor in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, told CNN Friday.

"The more unvaccinated people there are, the more opportunities for the virus to multiply," Schaffner said.

When it does, it mutates, and it could throw off a variant mutation that is even more serious down the road."

All viruses mutate, and while the coronavirus is not particularly mutation-prone, it does change and evolve. Most of the changes mean nothing to the virus, and some can weaken it. But sometimes, a virus develops a random mutation that gives it an advantage -- better transmissibility, for instance, or more efficient replication, or an ability to infect a great diversity of hosts.

Viruses with an advantage will outcompete other viruses, and will eventually make up the majority of virus particles infecting someone. If that infected person passes the virus to someone else, they'll be passing along the mutant version.

Actually, vaccinated people are mutation factories. The presence of millions of people with various furin spike protein constituents floating around their bodies and attached to ACE-2 receptors is perfect medium for interchange with Wuhan virus to expedite and facilitate virus mutation

So, maybe they need to be forced to wear a scarlet U?

Oh, I know. Make them wear yellow stars. And if they still don’t get the jab put them in special camps so they don’t “contaminate” any other people. We could call them Special Segregation camps. The staff could proudly wear their SS insignia!

Whoever threatens to execute us better be well armed. Why? We knew this day would come. We don’t have F-15s and Nuclear bombs, but we do have true intentions

Folks, the author is admitting that all vaccinated people are also the same as all persons without the vaccine, as both vaccinated and unvaccinated can still get COVID.

#11 - already starting

#12 - might take some other forms for a while, until they have their “final solution” meeting

I will wear a mask, and sunglasses, and a big hat - ONLY when I go to the bank, or post office.

F*CK the fear fascists!!!

I don’t want the experimental shot.

I don’t want the possible spike protein sheds of those who got the shot.

There is nothing right, scientific, or believable about any of this evil.

These pushers are the people our parents warned us about. Don’t take candy from strangers, don’t get into that van, if a stranger tells you that you won’t feel a thing...run.

White House to send 'surge teams' to delta variant hot spots

"The White House is readying COVID-19 "surge teams" to send to communities with low vaccination rates to help combat the rapidly spreading delta variant of the coronavirus, officials announced Thursday.

The teams will work with local public health authorities to conduct contact tracing, and will distribute supplies as needed or requested by states, such as therapeutics and additional tests."

Many of the people I have seen on the local news station websites whenever the topic comes up who say they are wearing masks indoors, also fully admit to being fully vaccinated.

“So tired of the cowardice. Where I live the masks are no longer required indoors but guess what? Many losers are still wearing them. Ridded with fear, I guess.”

See them here too and view them as gutless, terrified Democrats.
What’s bad is when you see them making little kids wear them.

On occasion, I want to say, “Did you read Dr. Fallacy’s email where he told someone they’re useless?”

But I know it will matter not at all. The real weirdos are the ones you see driving alone in a car or bicycle with a face diaper.

The stupidity knows no bounds.

This story is more BS. Herd immunity is already here, end of story. There is no factory of variants going to be more dangerous.

The big danger would be the ChiComs releasing a more deadly strain. They were a step away from doing that.

Ive heard several doctors claim just the opposite....

That vaccinating during a pandemic is what causes the variants.

The worse hit areas are those with the higher vaccination rate.
