You missed the point. L Loki is downplaying the need for under 50s to get a shot because COVID doesn't affect them as much as older people. However, that is looking at the situation with tunnel vision because you are ignoring the broader population based effects while only looking at the individual effects.
this dude is bipolar.
Hell of a vaccine
1. We're still dealing with this because it's a coronavirus. I bet you likely get a cold every year and that is a version of coronavirus. They all mutate and change. The difference is that this one is particularly deadly.
That's exactly what's happening. And the new variant seems even less dangerous than before. Many independant epidemiologists (the ones that created fear in the first place) are saying it. But many are not happy about it so they create FUD whenever they can even if not warranted. We are talking about a market of billion of dollar that could disappear if the Covid becomes like a flu.
That's an interesting point maybe the incubation could be shorter. I think I heard the mutations are in the spike proteins so maybe the proteins are better able to communicate with ace2 receptors but does it more noisily triggering the immune system earlier. Which would also then explain the milder symptoms since the virus wouldn't have gotten a deeper foothold.
Alrighty then.To be honest, at this point I cant be assed continuing to participate in this topic.
So, like Jimmy, I'll just be here watching like:

Now i'm starting to understand. I've seen people in this thread say people are afraid/scared to get a shot. Looks like it's actually people might be afraid to die. Especially thinking like this. I guess when me and my family had covid, we were apart of some super duper small minority to not have to go to the hospital or die.
No, you're in the majority if you catch COVID and don't go to the hospital or die. Most people who catch COVID survive. Even though only a small percentage of people get severely ill or die from COVID, it's still a large enough number that it becomes a problem that compromises our comfortable modern way of life.
My doctor told me, you just don't know how you will react to the virus. Could be mild, severe, hospitalization or death. Vaccine seems to help prevent the last two based on data so that's why we got vaccinated.
Not all countries require vaccination as a requirement for flying or entry.
yoo this talking point is so bad
Mother of my daughter's best friend had COVID in a house of 4, she was the only one vaccinated. They all had to stay home for 2 weeks, no one else got it even though she kept living her normal life, kissing her kids before going to bed, sharing meals with them etc..
Were you somehow under the impression that vaccinated people can't get sick?
Weak attempt, especially given all the numbers and hospitalisations and deaths these past 18 months. I’m waiting for ‘it’s just a flu bro’ argument.
No, I want it NOW. I don’t care about science, vulnerable or elderly, I want my TicTocs, my Facebook, and my Instagram now!

, it's a brand new virus that has found itself going round the world incredibly quickly. We are better equipped to track it and we have better weapons to combat it than we did even a year ago. This time last year the UK was in lockdown, not so right now. That might change of course but I'll take these small wins for now.
Except it is exactly like a flu for the majority of people.
Too bad it still leaves minority filling the hospitals to the detriment of all other diseases e.g. cancer. But hey, tough luck?
And that's where the vaccines come into the equation. For the minority that is mostly affected like we do for years for the seasonal flu. But hey, you're free to take as many doses as you want and enjoy the "freedoms" that come with it.Too bad it still leaves minority filling the hospitals to the detriment of all other diseases e.g. cancer. But hey, tough luck?
