    You are flat out wrong, again, but like any good propagandist you are going to repeat the same lie and mistruth over, and over and over until people relent end start to believe you. No different than all of the other anti-vaxxers.

    Here is but the latest summary of studies, put forth by CIDRAP (I know, Dr. Osterholm is a shill for big pharma and the New World Order....there, now you don't have to say it).

    COVID vaccines very effective, hinder spread, studies say

    agree. It comes from a place of willful ignorance, entitlement, and easily led by conspiracy theories. I actually wonder if it’s uniquely american to this level.

    There is also the fact that most MDs are vaccinated. In June, it was at 96%, not sure what it is now.
    The overwhelmingly majority of the most educated health care providers are vaccinated, that should tell you something.

    It's not doctors. Almost all of them are vaccinated.

    Nurses are not really trained in science.

    If this is true, this is a sad commentary on the anti-vaxxers of all political persuasions. They just contributed to this man's death.

    Friend text me just now asking for help with info about covid. One of her friends husband tested positive for covid and is having trouble breathing. He is in his 60s and high risk. He wouldn't get the vaccine, won't go to the ER and thinks monoclonal antibodies are the same thing as the vaccine. He is willing to go to an urgent care for a chest x ray but he cant get into the back seat of their car and his wife is now terrified for him and herself who is also not vaccinated.

    All of this because of political crap. Its just sad.

    I don't understand the "optimistic" tag on factual reporting. I left out my hope that hospitalizations continue to follow the same trend, but maybe you read my mind.

    Declining cases. Optimism that Delta is burning out. That was the history in other places.

    what do they know? That their death rate is much higher than those around them and that they made poor choices that led to that exponentially higher death rate?
