Everyone undecided, or not taking this vaccine, remember this: If you are having future scheduled medical procedures done, bank some of your blood ahead of time. These mrna snippets get inside cells, that includes blood cells.

You can’t force a horse to drink water, and at least we shouldn’t talk about forcing people to get vaccines, but the horse should drink and everyone should get a vaccine. Vaccines have saved countless lives and increasingly enable our urban lifestyles by reducing or nearly wiping out spreadable diseases. Things like Polio, mumps, and smallpox have been nearly eradicated and if they were to pop up someplace, we are largely safe from a widespread pandemic from them because of vaccines. However, despite the history and the present evidence of their effectiveness – there is a large cohort of individuals...

Last week, all the living former U.S. presidents, Democratic and Republican, joined together for an ad campaign touting the safety and effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccines — except Donald Trump. At the same time, a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll found that a full 50 percent of unvaccinated 2020 Trump voters now say they will “never” get vaccinated for COVID-19, up 6 percent from last month. According to the survey of 1,629 U.S. adults, which was conducted March 4-8, no other unvaccinated group is nearly as likely to say they will “never” get inoculated: not Biden supporters (8 percent), not Black...

I just passed my 20 mark here at Free Republic! Wow. Kind of sneaks up you. I joined during the 2000 election endless recount circus. And it looks like we’re in for another chaotic mess of an election this year. Let’s see how many 20+ FR veterans I can get to respond!

FR VICTORY BRUNCH Fond memories of a great time with FReeper FRiends. In my presentation, I called Hillary the Daughter of Satan. Some thought it was way over the top. What about now? Start at about 1:09.35

As of about 9:30 PM EDT, there have been about 43 new posts with "Kamala" or "Harris" in the title. The media are all Kamala, all day. It appears Freepers are too.

I would have to believe that the majority of veteran Freepers are over 50. Most prolific posters. How would we know if and when we lose our favorites, and or their family members?

Have you ever been COVID-shamed online? Maybe you posted pictures of you and your family at a park and got reamed by someone for not being at home. Maybe, heaven forbid, you even dared to express a view on social media that strays from the ‘accepted opinion’ of months of mandated quarantine and government-enforced shutdowns until not a single solitary individual is infected with the virus. If the wrong people get wind you’ve expressed such an opinion, you’ll reap the whirlwind, I can promise you that. I’ve been there and done that. Fortunately, however, my work in conservative and right-of-center...

I suppose this could be considered a waste of time, but I thought it might be a good ongoing thread to track cases of the Corona virus that are directly or tangentially impacting Freepers. We have 2 indirect contacts I know of so far.

The company said Thursday that sales at its stores open for at least one year, a key metric, increased 9.1% during its previous quarter compared with the same period last year. Sales at Costco in February were up 12.4% from a year ago. The company attributed around 3% of that to “an uptick in consumer demand” from concerns over coronavirus. Shoppers have posted pictures on social media in recent days of lines snaking around Costco stores. They have also posted pictures of shelves empty of sanitizers at Costco, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens and other drug stores. Shares of Costco, Walmart, other...

The various necessities being sought include hand sanitizer, paper towels, trail mix, water and surgical masks, all of which are being bought in bulk. Citing Nielsen, CNBC reported that hand sanitizer sales are up 73% since February 22, while surgical masks sales are up 319%. However, Nielsen added that it does not expect hand sanitizer sales to peak any time soon. The sudden surge of panic-induced shoppers is predicted by some to...

It seems that the world is fighting two fronts on the spread of the novel coronavirus: On the medical front and the misinformation front, which could lead to more people getting infected. A disturbing number of people already think that you get coronavirus by drinking Corona Beer.We could all use a little less fear-mongering and fake news about the deadly virus, but some information is so convincing they seem true. Below are some of the misinformation being circulated on social media.  1|  Gargling salt water can help prevent the spread of coronavirus. It might alleviate halitosis to some extent, but rinsing...
