By DiPro Go To PostWhat religion does not allow a vaccine? I know jehova witnesses are against certain life saving measures but i think they don't mind vaccines.I've heard of Catholic priests telling their flock that the vaccine has aborted fetal material in it.

By Xpike Go To PostOnce again vaccines are the fast way to make covid just another diseasetoo late
Why would we have the government force masks on our kids when many of these kids are already immune through prior infection, they’re at virtually zero risk of significant illness and when virtually every school personnel had access to vaccines for months and months?” DeSantis said.Wtf
By Xpike Go To Postthe best part is desantis is gonna be the GOP nominee for 2024Future POTUS
It's wack, but we need another 365 days of masking/distancing.
Unfortunately it looks like that won't be happening in America.

Unfortunately it looks like that won't be happening in America.
Why 365 days though? I think the layman would just ask something like "why, so another variant can come and we will need another 365 days?"
Is the GOP reverse messaging not helping? Maybe they need to blame it on China harder and start calling it a Freedom Shot

By Not Go To PostIs the GOP reverse messaging not helping? Maybe they need to blame it on China harder and start calling it a Freedom ShotIt is kind of hard to go from "maybe the vaccine is a part of a conspiracy to take your rights away" to "maybe you should get it" without some push back.
If regressive American propaganda can't do the trick, nothing can
"Democrats are trying to control your lives by helping you live" is truly the greatest Republican take.
According to the latest data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, less than 0.004% of people who have been fully vaccinated against Covid-19 experienced a breakthrough case resulting in hospitalization, and less than 0.001% have died from the disease.
About half of states report data on Covid-19 breakthrough cases, and in each of those states, less than 1% of fully vaccinated people had a breakthrough infection, ranging from 0.01% in Connecticut to 0.9% in Oklahoma.

I believe those that died had underlying health condition so it's one of those "did they die from COVID or from multiple complications" kinda thing, too.

The CDC numbers they're using here for 'breakthroughs' are BS though (imo). And their qualification for a 'breakthrough' is also not what I'd call a breakthrough, it's misleading. Enough people are feeling sick right now to overload hospitals, which I'd say is qualifier enough for the designation of breakthrough. While anywhere between 80-95% of hospitalizations are unvaccinated, we're still talking about tens of thousands vaccinated who are going to hospitals, which is way above CDC's numbers.

While anywhere between 80-95% of hospitalizations are unvaccinated, we're still talking about tens of thousands vaccinated who are going to hospitals, which is way above CDC's numbers.I can't speak for the US, but in the UK hospitalizations have remained below the most optimistic predictions of government modelling, and that's without accouting for the quarter of Covid hospitalizations that didn't go in for Covid and instead were infected in the hospital/were asymptomatic. While the US has not achieved the same level of vaccination coverage as the UK, it seems unlikely that they would be experiencing some kind of hospitalization wave for the vaccinated based on UK data.
America is approaching 100,000 average daily cases eventhough we just hit 70% (first dose) vaccination for 18+
By reilo Go To PostAmerica is approaching 100,000 average daily cases eventhough we just hit 70% (first dose) vaccination for 18+If our wave looks similar to the UK's we will hit around 200k
I place a lot of blame on the media (et. al) for how they reported on vaccines. The US is full of dipshits who never read beyond the headline. All people saw was things like "95% efficacy against covid", never taking the time to understand that efficacy pertained to serious illness or hospitalization. So now, the anti-vaxxer cuntmob thinks they have more fuel to add to their fire, and it makes me want to throw them all in that very fire. Print editors are so fixated on keeping headlines short, and news producers/broadcasters are fixated on averaging no more than 30-45 seconds per story.
By AlphaSnacks Go To PostAll people saw was things like "95% efficacy against covid", never taking the time to understand that efficacy pertained to serious illness or hospitalization. .Nah, those numbers were indeed related to preventing infection.
Hearing about every new variant that didn't really seem to do much until Delta that did probably didn't help people be more cautious though.

Situation here is getting much better. We went from having 190 active cases on Thursday or Friday to 110 today. Daily recoveries have been of between 10 and 20+ every day, daily new cases have been around 3 to 5.
I found more details about how our "crisis" happened. There was a Judo meeting with 150 people on other island, two of the instructors came from the mainland and were infected. One person who went to the meeting came back to Terceira and went to the gym.
There she/he infected a few others, including the brother of the bride who also got infected.
Luckily she had to do a test before going on her honeymoon, tested positive and warned everyone who was at the ending just 24h after the wedding so that helped getting it contained.
Everyone has been more contained in general and bigger restrictions were imposed.
We should be down to a low risk status in a week if things keep going like they are.
Had my first shot on Monday and have the second one scheduled for the 23rd. Pretty much everyone who I know who hadn't been vaccinated before is getting their first shot this week.
For those wondering about why people were unvaccinated, vaccination here is happening in stages divided by age groups.
We were at 58.2% of the population fully vaccinated and 61.5% with one shot. The way vaccination is ramping up, I am expecting us to be at around 70% fully vaccinated by the end of the month.

Thread with hospitals in Louisiana explaining why they need people to vaccinate and wear masks:
Some have run out of available beds, others have run out of available employees.

By blackace Go To PostJapan also divided the shots into age groups. My age group can make appoints from todayWe get an SMS with the date and hour for our shot and have just to respond with a YES + our national health service number or NO + our national health service number.

How are the vaccines for teenagers working? A lot of people picking them up?
We just recently made them available via the vaccine centers. Before it was only open for 12+ year olds that went to a doctor specifically for children, however not all of them did them since there was no official yes from the vaccine commission. Politic went beyond their suggestion, so vaccine centers are giving these shots out now.
anyone here got combined vaccines? like first dose from AZ/Pfizer and the second from Moderna/whatever?
Thinking about doing AZ + Moderna because AZ's first dose almost destroyed my will to live

I know a few people who got the cross-vaccine. No problems occured, apart from the usual side effects.

It’s clearly rehearsed but I can totally imagine a good 50% of the people who watched that thought it was real.
Back to 100,000 average cases per days over last seven days. Over 30% higher average cases per day than August 2020.
