    My wife, 96 year old mother-in-law and I all got the bivalent booster at CVS this morning. No discomfort at all.

    Just based on this thread we know that the bivalent boosters aren’t killing everybody immediately.

    The announcement was made in order to establish a cause of death if need be.

    Is dying a virtue signal? (I guess it is if you claim you're going to heaven.)

    I guess I'm only partially virtues. I haven't had my third Covid booster yet but probably will within the next couple of weeks along with a quadrivalent flu shot.

    Don’t talk to me. It’s as if I didn’t know you.

    If one person, anywhere in the world, has died from a vaccine ... vaccine deaths outnumber Covid deaths.

    I'm not offended GH. I have my shots. But people calling out a poster in a clear effort to bait a fight, or worse to mock, is childish. Good on Q for taking the high road. The virtue signalling echo chamber didnt get the fight the wanted.

    Public health and the media had people convinced, for many months, that that was the case. But it eventually got to the point where the case could not be made.

    Unfortunately, the American public was gaslit into submitting to a risky solution for a non-existent problem.

    We’ll likely never know how many it has killed. We do know that excess deaths remain stubbornly high throughout much of the world. A

    And it ain’t climate change.

    Not definitely although the probability would have significantly smaller given the effective of the vaccine at preventing death from Covid-19 when they passed away. This is from a study covering the period in which they died. The situation is somewhat different now since the dominant Omicron variant although more transmissible is much less lethal than the earlier variants.
    A total of 58 studies (32 studies for vaccine effectiveness and 26 studies for vaccine safety) were included. A single dose of vaccines was 41% (95% CI: 28–54%) effective at preventing SARS-CoV-2 infections, 52% (31–73%) for symptomatic COVID-19, 66% (50–81%) for hospitalization, 45% (42–49%) for Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admissions, and 53% (15–91%) for COVID-19-related death; and two doses were 85% (81–89%) effective at preventing SARS-CoV-2 infections, 97% (97–98%) for symptomatic COVID-19, 93% (89–96%) for hospitalization, 96% (93–98%) for ICU admissions, and 95% (92–98%) effective for COVID-19-related death, respectively.

    Although vaccines are less effective at preventing infections from the current variants and sub-variants, they are still very effective at reducing the incidence of severe cases.

    All such studies run aground on the simple fact that there are no pathogenic viruses.

    The only question is how many have survived the vaccines and how many have been killed by them.

    No pathogenic viruses? Quoting that insightful philosopher John McEnroe.

    As I’ve stated repeatedly, virology is the modern day equivalent of demonology and vaccines are exorcism juice.
