This article just about sums it up. People are tired. The have seen enough of the bullshit, and they know exactly where the bullshit is coming from.

Bill Maher torches Sotomayor for botching COVID facts: 'That's really ignorant for a Supreme Court justice'

The "Real Time" host returned from vacation and blasted Democrats for not following the "science" of the pandemic.

Watch the whole episode. Maher and Weiss both torch all the nonsense. It was a great episode.

I'm sure you'll be delighted to know I tested positive for Covid on Friday. After two shots + 3rd Pfizer booster shot, taking every possible precaution with masks, sanitizer, social distancing, I still caught the virus. Dealing with pretty gnarly symptoms, including cold shakes, fever, congestion, dizziness. Can't sleep at night at all. Went from a cold, to a flu to another flu, to full on Covid over the past 2-3 weeks. Making my rounds at the restaurants has taken its toll, interacting with customers & staff, Omicron snuck through. New cases are through the roof here, yesterday 60% of all tests came back positive.

Very disappointed, though I am grateful for the Pfizer booster. If it limits this thing to the symptoms I have, I'll be alright. Based on what I'm dealing with, this may be a hybrid Delta/Omicron variant, as this is nothing like any cold or flu I've had. Whatever happens, I'm not going to hospital, as in this part of the world, that's a kiss of death. May be worth heading up to Austria if it gets to that.

I trust you're all staying safe and healthy. Take care of yourselves.

NOT delighted in the least, Tibs.
I wish you a speedy recovery.
I hope you have reasonable access to monoclonal antibodies, hydroxichloriquine, ivermectin, and/or any other therapy drugs to assist in getting you back to 100%.
My prayers for you.
No sarcasm. All sincerity.

You will be fine. The virus is no where near as deadly as the leftist fear porn makes it out to be.

Triple-vaxxed Geraldo Rivera caught the Covid and afterwards came on the air and apologized for his rants directed towards those who questioned masks and vaccines. He said he was humbled by the experience and realized he had been a pompous blowhard regarding those who caught the virus and the simple fact is that the virus will get us all.

I genuinely hope you do just fine and suffer no long-term effects. I know nothing of your medical history or overall physical state of course, but if you are a reasonably healthy person under the age of 60, you are almost certainly going to be fine.

But to close this circle, Tibs - masks don't do a damn thing against this virus. Your rants against those who declined to wear a cloth mask have not aged well. Can you at least admit that wearing a cloth mask does not do a damn thing about a virus that is vastly smaller than the filtration size of a cloth mask?

Also, can you admit that despite your three shots, you may well have spread the virus while you were in the early stages, i.e., when you are breeding the virus but before you felt significantly ill? And can you then withdraw your criticism of the unvaxxed for "spreading the virus"? Indeed, can you admit now that since the shots reduce symptoms, those who get the shots and then get the virus are slower to exhibit symptoms and then have fewer symptoms, i.e., they continue to socialize much longer, and wind up spreading the virus more than those who did NOT have the shots?

Finally, if you re-read any five pages of this thread, you will notice the following: a lot of posters such as TSF, Indy, Supe, OFTB, etc. criticized leaders, decision makers for policies that made little to no sense or that violated fundamental rights.

You and Flog have criticized the citizens, the people with absolutely no power in this thing. Seriously, take a look. It's why I keep harping on you and Flog to criticize China - and you can't. But you are more than willing to call powerless citizens idiots and murderers.

You get that, right?

I wish the guy a speedy recovery but I think his ego will remain in that he will stand by his stance on covid/vaccines/mask.

That said the guy does remain true to his principles despite being outnumbered. I can respect that.

How do we know the shots actually reduce the severity of the disease? Is it because they told us? The testing/research throughout this whole thing has been highly suspect.

A barista or receptionist will be along shortly to educate you that doctors, doctors I say, have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, with double blind studies and fastidious research taking years to develop, that this vaccine and this vaccine alone, has saved a brazillion lives.

I hope you recover quickly and fully Tibs.

Here in Chester County PA our vax and boost rate is pretty damn high, most people are wearing masks but pretty much everyone I know has had it go through their house. Even my nurse practitioner friend who is the most covid cautious person I know. Although she did say in her clinic (which caters mainly to our migrant farm worker population) she's seen no one die during this latest surge compared to dozens in the initial one. Reassuring.

 

[jitter77]

I have seen same symptoms in people with various immunization levels. Another thing is people are having symptoms for a few days prior to testing positive. Also with previous strains rapid tests would come up positive almost immediately and now alot are taking almost the full 15 mins.

 

[Booted]

On the other backhand, you should consider how many people you spread this to "making rounds" in your restaurants, "interacting with customers & staff", etc. Like Flog being a Johnny Covidseed in Key West, you're the same in Budapest.

Tibs is the new Typhoid Mary. Spreading the Hungarian variant.

Link?

Common sense and math, Tim. Neither one is a strength of yours.

Even with all the Omicron cases included, the death rate is still more than 1%. How could hospitalizations be less than that?

 

[Vader]

One of my friends that I went to elementary school with just lost her mother to covid. 3X vaxed but she did just finish chemo for breast cancer.

No it isn't, not even close. The numbers you are using only account for diagnosed cases as been repeatedly explained to you that isn't close to the actual case count even according to the CDC. The latest CDC estimated burden is 1 in 4 cases is reported but deaths are 1 in 1.32 cases reported. If you multiply the known cases by 4 and the known deaths by 1.32 and divide you get a mortality of .005279. Science!

skip over every other ******* post to that one. its ok. we know where you stand now.

 

[Steeltime]

False.

There have been 70.5 million DIAGNOSED Chinese flu cases in the United States. Given the fact that Omigod variation results in very low symptoms for most, and given that those diagnosed with the Chinese flu are required to miss five days of work at least and not get paid, the number of infected is far higher than the number diagnosed.

One study looked at antigen tests in major cities - Los Angeles, Chicago, New York - and stated that about 100 million had caught the Chinese flu by the end of ... 2020.

New study finds 1 in 3 Americans were infected with coronavirus by the end of 2020

One in 3 people may have had the virus and probably did not know.

thehill.com

That number has probably gone up since then what with the Omigod strain. So a conservative estimate of the number who have had the Chinese flu would be 165 million, or about half the country. Fact.

The official "death count" for the Chinese flu is 865,000 but everybody with a functioning brain knows that the number is vastly overstated by the "died with Covid" rather than the "died because of Covid" schtick. Fine, say 20% overstatement of Chinese flu deaths. It is undoubtedly more but whatever. Say 170,000 less than the official count, meaning the real number is about 700,000.

700,000 out of 165,000,000 = 0.0042, or 0.42%. That is the actual mortality rate - a number backed up by research. Whose research? The CDC.

CDC estimates COVID 19 mortality rate is 0.4%, significantly lower than previously reported

The data is based on five scenarios, including the best estimate for a mortality rate, which is 0.4% overall.

Wow, look at that. I used my ability to read and reason, posited genuine numbers using credible sources and came up with the same mortality rate - 0.4% - as did the CDC.

So stop spreading disinformation, Floggy.

Flog is probably one of those paid internet trolls that will discount you no matter how wrong.


How much you make to surf the net Flog?
Still hiring?

 

[ZonaBurgh]

This has been said before, but cannot be overstated, when will we all realize that what we should be now focused on is that this virus was manufactured and deliberately released by the Chinese communists? And it's naive, and frankly dangerous, to think they won't do it again.

I actually think this is the last shoe to drop on this bs shot. How can we know if you didn’t get the shot you wouldn’t have had the same level of recovery?

I mean nothing they have stated has come true so why do we think this is?
