Kolek planning to go pro
"Prove a negative"He's erring on the side of caution, obviously. It is a terrible question. You can't just pull studies out of thin air, and there is no definitive data that vaccinated people can't asymptomatically spread the virus.Once we KNOW that vaccinated people can't spread, then it will be fine to travel as usual if vaccinated.Use your brain.
The vaccines have been getting studied for almost a year now....me thinks we know the answer.
What? The Phase 3 trials didn’t conclude until November.
Sure they were concluded in November but began in July. Seems like plenty of time to have figured out by now if once vaccinated can an individual asymptotically pass it along.
Lol. I’m sure you know what you are talking about. 🙄🙄🙄
I’m thankful that we aren’t banking on AZ. Between the early botched trials and the reactionary changes to to safety or efficacy concerns it has been a disaster for that vaccine and Europe too. Still have faith in the FDA and another example they seem to be doing their job regardless of the politics of the day.
finally some cooler heads are starting to prevail with regards to the lockdowns-do they really work and/or are they worth the risk to socio-economic, physical and mental health impacts. compare california to florida, the dakotas to similar size areas. there is little to no difference in the numbers. the science is finally putting together some data and it's essentially telling them the risk-reward is not worth the sacrafices. there are some more studies even questioning the masks efficacy,https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/who-official-urges-world-leaders-to-stop-using-lockdowns-as-primary-virus-control-method/ar-BB19TBUohttps://www.wsj.com/articles/the-failed-experiment-of-covid-lockdowns-11599000890the sad thing is, these results have been known for quite some time, yet there are some states yet today working under very strict lockdown orders. are they not getting the memo's? if this is known and the lockdowns are continuing, it really makes me wonder what their true agendas are...well, not wonder, but it's really sad what some of these so called "experts" are doing to real lives and the long term affects
I was reading something yesterday that said our puritanical, zero-tolerance approach toward this has been problematic. Not only for the reasons you mention here, but because it has caused people to tune people out and take riskier behavior.For instance, and they are doing this now, but the news reports showing people at the beach. But a beach is probably one of the safest places you can be. People are usually spread out, and there is usually a breeze dissipating any air. The better idea would be to teach people how to lessen the harm understanding that people are going to engage in risky behavior. They liked it to the abstinence method of sex education in the 1980s, which likely caused more teen pregnancy and more abortions because kids didn't have access to birth control or didn't know how to have the conversation with their parent or another trusted adult.
My man, I don't know where to start with you. Lockdowns worked. Look no further than Southeast Asia. Look no further than Spain or Italy. It was only when the lockdown measures are removed that the virus crept up again.The articles you linked... the first is from October (5 months ago) and is written by Andrew Mark Miller. Check out his background a second, and then try to take the guy seriously. He writes some of the most biased articles for the most biased rag in DC. Furthermore, he quoted a guy from the WHO... and we ALL KNOW how you feel about the WHO based on your posting history... but now they matter? Examine why you feel this way now. Furthermore, that gentleman says his comment was taken out of context. He goes on to explain that lockdowns shouldn't have been the PRIMARY measure for tackling the virus. He never said that they don't work.The second article is from September (6 months ago) and is an opinion piece authored by a big bank guy who idolizes John Galt. He also was among the deadest wrong about the financial collapse in 2008.And you see neither of these articles as problematic? Seriously?
