Despite low vaccination rate, health official says Hardin County sees few COVID cases

HARDIN COUNTY, OHIO, Ohio — In a place that sees more cars than foot traffic, Bob Emlinger calls Kenton, Ohio home.

“It’s a small town. I think the population might be around 3,000 or 4,000,” Emlinger said.

But in the small county of Hardin, he notices a big problem.

“They've had the shots for the last five months, and a lot of people just don't want to bother with it,” Emlinger said.

Kelsey Ralsten with the health department said the number of vaccines they have mirrors the size of the community.

She said there’s only so much space they can store the doses.

"We're at about 31-32% vaccinated. We do have a large Amish population, which puts a little bit of skew in our numbers,” Ralsten said.

Ralston said they've vaccinated a little more than 9,000 people in Hardin County, but she said don't let the low vaccination rate fool you.

"Our transmission rate seems to be pretty low. We don't see a lot of cases I think over the last month we've had about a case a day average,” she said.

Even hearing that news, Emlinger wants more people to roll up their sleeves to help stop the spread of the delta variant.…

Let’s wait for the “science” folks to come back with some double talk on how this is untrue.

The areas most at risk for person to person transmission are urban areas where people congregate together like rats in a cage.

The Army or CIA dispensers haven’t been through there yet.

Amish population, you say?

I remember the story of the Amish gentleman who, when asked why the Amish didn’t seem to be having a big problem with Covid, replied:

“We don’t have television.”

Agreed. Also true for most other diseases. Cities are absolutely disgusting places. Sometimes okay for a short visit, but I’d never, ever live in one.

I can say, "I've been vaccinated."

Because-

"vaccinate" is defined thusly, "To inoculate with a vaccine in order to produce immunity to an infectious disease, such as diphtheria or typhus."

"inoculate" is defined (in part), "To implant (a disease agent or antigen) in a person, animal, or plant to produce a disease for study or to stimulate disease resistance."

So, I contend that the Covid-19 virus was naturally "implanted" into my body (through contact with a someone else who later tested positive), I was symptomatic (elevated body temperature, body aches, loss of taste) I subsequently had a positive test, the virus "stimulated" my "resistance", and now I am "immune" to the virus - plus, there's evidence that I am naturally more immune to its variants than those who only got one of the available, yet still, FDA UNapproved shot regimens.

I am not going to get the "jab" - at least until I know it is warranted and safe.

PERIOD

Because of the low “vaccination” rate...

There isn’t anyplace where large numbers of people congregate in Hardin county either. They have a Walmart, and the usual smattering of fast food. That’s it. If they have even one local cafe, I’m not aware of it.
