Wuhan Coronavirus: Megathread - Got too big

[Billy Beer]

Will we need vaccine passports to do fun things?

One mans fun is another mans hell.

She's kind of a cipher, a great unknown who came from the west of the state. She didn't do shit or have any authority during his administration. She wasn't even at his side during his Emmy Award Winning press conferences.

The scary thing is she could come out swinging with sweeping COVID restrictions to prove herself and distance herself from Cuomo. She can go farther than he ever did (he was mild compared to Whitmer and Newsom) by playing up that he was a failure.

She could also be so weak and have no clue how Albany politics works that she becomes a pawn of the legislative branch or worse, the Biden administration.

I am a bit worried about what is to come for mask and vax mandates in the state.

She's a rabid feminist grifter. She's repeatedly positioned herself to be the replacement if someone was forced to step down due to sexual assault allegations, but also spectacularly failed in anything resembling a fair election. She'll probably end up being authoritarian progressive.

Hm... So what does the vaccine approval mean? Does it mean it's safer?

Trying to keep an open mind here in the midst of clownland.

Not sure what it means officially, but I suspect this will allow those in charge to promote this as a "Safer" vaccine for those that are still hesitant for whatever reason. I also think this will allow more entities to require vaccinations now that one is designated as approved.

I'm not sure what to think of this. I'd decided that if we got two years into the vaccination program, and people were generally handling it well, and the witch hunts had died down, and there's clear data saying the vaccine would improve upon my natural Covid antibodies, then I'd get it.

A lot of people have felt that way, but various reasons have led them to get the vaccine before they'd prefer to. All we have no is little more than partisan political folks saying "It's safe. Trust me!" with the expectations everyone will take the comment at face value and question nothing.

I honestly think the world wouldn't have gotten so fucked up if "experts" and politicians treated this like a flu.

It would have been nice if the medical experts were able to act without political influence to get together and say, "Here's what we know, here's what we don't know, and here's what we recommend." and offer periodic updates as stuff changes. Unfortunately, too many politicians and appointed medical experts used this to further their own agendas, platforms, and personal interests.

I wonder if my company will mandate it too.

I'm thankful my boss has made it clear he has no plans to do so because how we handle COVID is our business so long as we follow existing company COVID policy when we're in the building.

Advice to readers: Experienced, independent physicians recommend not to take a new drug approved by the FDA until it is out for 7 years, unless you have to, so that evidence can accumulate about its real harms and benefits.

I've seen people say that Corona virus type vaccines have been researched for that long as a way to address this point. I have no idea how true it is and would press X until shown something definitive to confirm this claim.

How in the goddamn hell are they deciding people died of covid half a year later? Aren't these people long dead and buried? Wouldn't you have tested this earlier than now? It's not a one off, the past week they started it there's been a death or two from the winter.

I tend not to be into conspiracy theories, but I've thought all along this action is done solely to keep the numbers up -- especially when they start dropping on their own -- to keep people in a minimum level of panic.

Buzzfeed is on some kind of vaccine kick today. Must have been some kind of meeting after the FDA announcement.

I'd trust The Onion as an unironic news source over Buzzfeed after the latter let an e-thot post an "article" announcing her engagement, pregnancy, or some other event that anyone that didn't know her wouldn't care about.

If a company fires you for not getting the jab, don't they have to pay you out of your contract, as you're not doing anything to break that contract that you signed and they want to release you from it? Seems like a good way to make a few quid.

It all depends on whether a contract exists and what the terms of the contract are.

In many places within the US, employment is at will meaning an employer or employee can end the working arrangement at any time for any reason. In those instances, there's no contractual obligation or protection unless an employment agreement was signed in advance of being hired.

This one is interesting because it's going to be seeing a courtroom very quickly. They're offering no exemptions, not even medical; guaranteed plenty of lawyers are chomping at the bit to tear into this over its blatant charter violations.

I'm seeing a number of teachers union officials making comments whose TL;DR is "We understand the importance of vaccines, but we see this is a working condition and those are something that have to be negotiated and not imposed." It will be interesting to see if unions resort to strikes or lawsuits in response to mandatory vaccine requirements that weren't negotiated in advance or don't allow for exceptions for legitimate concerns.

Using an obituary to make a political rant? And I thought things couldn't sink lower in the 2020s.

I bet the newspaper was happy to get the extra money such a long obituary would cost for the space -- more so if the editorial board is left-leaning and agreed with the sperging contained within.

8/18: 8
8/19: 799
8/20: 315
8/21: 0
8/22: 0
8/23: 464
8/24: 6

That doesn't look strange at all.

August 21 and 22 were a Saturday and Sunday and most health departments don't report case numbers on the weekend. Take the 8/23 number and divide in half (232). That's probably the approximate number of cases for each day in the weekend.

It's always something when the media report a large case number on Monday without making it clear it's 2-3 days worth of cases combined into one. My media recently did this to hide the fact there was approximately one death for every 275 cases over that weekend and instead keep people freaking out over numbers that were higher only because they were for more than one day.

Cavalier Johnson will be the interim mayor. Close, though.
Seems clean and literate.

Wonder if he's gonna stand behind the vax order as a black man. Lots of city workers are black, I'd venture to say at least 70 percent. You gotta remember this includes trash collectors, plow drivers, etc. Will they actually terminate people if they don't comply, as Barrett said (after a 30 day suspension and continued noncompliance)?

Yeah he seems ok and honestly anything besides Barret would be better.

i doubt many black will comply. Its just not their culture to vaccinate.

Tiffany Dover's husband is single now.

Or they broke up?

Wouldn't there be a public record of divorce, then? Any breakup posts or status changes on Tiffany's accounts?

yes

it would be on the clerk of court website for the county. Unless the paperwork has not been served yet.

Plus, I remember hearing that this update was days after her "fainting" spell. I mean, maybe he just really hates people who faint, but that would be pretty cold.

I thought that too because mine also swore they weren’t going to.
Here we are, a couple weeks later and I had to get it to keep my job. Don’t get too comfortable. When daddy government brings down the hammer, companies will comply.

More so given that she apparently has a history of fainting in response to pain.

If he's stand behind the vax order, will it be called "uncle Tom"? Slightly off-topic, I wonder if Milwaukee will get an Hispanic mayor one day?

If this surprising finding holds up, might facilitate herd immunity sooner, since folks with prior Covid (which will eventually be nearly all unvaxxed people) will remain protected longer than we thought. Fingers crossed.

Still way better to get immunity from a shot than a case.

As the covid narrative continues to rapidly crash and burn with data so bad for the dangerous and worthless vaccines, these clowns in the media, the medical profession, and academia continue to use that word: 'surprising'.

As if this entire clusterfuck wasn't predicted and warned about a year and a half ago by actual experts in virology.

And love the Covid Cultist Mantra at the end there.
"Ignore our narrative crashing and burning right before your eyes. Get the jab! Safe and Effective!. Safe and Effective! One of us! One of us!"
"I'm not WRONG!!!"
"The science has CHANGED!!!"

Company sent out a survey. I knew what it was about the moment it hit my inbox. The first 5-6 questions were irrelevant, it was all about the last one. "How would you feel about requiring vaccination before employees return to the office?" They claimed the survey was totally untraceable and anonymous, but I'm not stupid. I gave vague answers to the first several questions. The last I simply told them I didn't like the precedent set by mandating medical procedures for employees.

It's surprising to them because many skeptics of the vaccines have been saying similar things and that goes against the initial NPC programming that was installed during the height of the election, druggy Floyd's death and BLM/ANTIFA riot hullabaloo.

 

[FarmerKhourtney]

Part of this is just pure stubbornness. So many people were saying last year that vaccines were the way out. To keep hope alive until the population was vaccinated etc.

Spoiler

my therapist at the time (completely unhelpful by the way) tried to console my suicidal feelings by saying that after the winter it would be fine and everyone could be vaccinated and go back to life. And that clearly isn’t happening.

and that’s why people won’t accept what’s right in front of their eyes at the moment

BOMBSHELL UK data destroys entire premise for vaccine push

The media can read just as well as me (maybe), but somehow it is left to me to report this.

Please.. I don't need to hear anything about the source. Just hit the link, download the UK goverment PDF there. 400+ deaths out of 700 were vaccinated.

What is ADE for 600 Alex?

It is extremely dangerous to ignore the evidence in front of us because we cant mentally accept it

If these mRNA products are like every one ever made, nobody is gonna live. Its all Heart failure and autoimmune disease in the future for them.



The fundamental fact is that there is not a single person alive today that has taken an mRNA product from 2016, 2017 or 2018 and survived. Not a single person is alive today that has used this product in trials for Cancer, Diabetes, or other illnesses.

Not one

Think about that real hard. Did they get it right this time? Maybe they did but i have some serious doubts. Its why Moderna has nothing approved after a decade in business..only promises and dead patients.


Bad things are likely coming.

It will be interesting to see if unions resort to strikes or lawsuits in response to mandatory vaccine requirements that weren't negotiated in advance or don't allow for exceptions for legitimate concerns.

IMO something should be expected (probably lawsuits over strikes if Horgan doesn't cave given the messaging risks), not so much because they care about the vaccines themselves, but as you mention for the potential precedent it sets for future union negotiations.

It's the same situation as with Trudeau federally, any mandate is a minefield because the unions will demand their pound of flesh and the coffers aren't particularly full these days.

 

[kidatari]

can give some In Mincraft suggestions for users who live in Australia and other countries with similar lockdown rules

get some clothes and make fake mannequin or two
doesn't have to be a sophisticated looking mannequin and as long as it looks like a person at a far
then place them in public places
of course its a prank but will annoy and piss off officials
and of course be careful doing it
