If lockdowns worked then why has Toronto been locked down since November? The only time since that cases came down is when schools were closed. Within a few weeks of schools re-opening case numbers went up. Toronto and Peel have now switched back to online learning...and now less than a week after our incompetent premier introduced more mock down measures he set to announce even tougher mock down measures...
It’s easy to support mock downs if you have not lost your job taken a huge financial hit...
Our premier is allowing people to die because he is such an incompetent buffoon.
Our incompetent PM has cost lives because he got in bed with fuck China and their vaccine in which the fuck China screwed us, instead of working with our allies...

Of 1.7M fully vaccinated in Michigan, 246 have tested positive for COVID-19
Vaccinated people are still getting COVID-19 — but why?
The COVID-19 vaccines are not 100% effective, but they do tend to reduce the severity of infection if the virus is contracted.
DETROIT (FOX 2) - Nearly 250 people who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 have tested positive for the virus, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services said.
According to MDHHS, 246 people have had a positive test 14 or more days after receiving their second dose of the vaccine as of the end of March. The people who have tested positive have been asymptomatic or have had milder symptoms compared to unvaccinated people.
So far, more than 1.7 million Michigan residents have received complete doses of the vaccine. This means that .0001 of those vaccinated have gotten sick. Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are considered 95% and 94% effective respectively, meaning that the vaccines are not 100% effective, but if people do get sick, the infections tend to be less severe.

Of the positive cases, 129 had no data entered about hospitalizations, while 117 did have that information. Eleven were hospitalized, 103 were not, and three were marked as unknown.
This data contradicts a statement made by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said last week.
"Zero percent of the people in our hospitals right now have been vaccinated, which tells you the vaccines work," she said.
Additionally, according to MDHHS, three people older than 65 have died. Two of those deaths were within three weeks of completion of vaccination.
Officials said the majority of the population develops full immunity within 14 days of completion of their vaccine series, but a small proportion appears to take longer to get a full antibody response.

The CDC is working to understand the risk characteristics of this group, MDHHS said.
The health department reiterated that the proportion of vaccinated people who have been symptomatic, hospitalized, or have died are lower than those who are unvaccinated.
Also, health officials said some of those people who have tested positive for COVID after getting vaccinated may have been continuing to test positive from a recent infection prior to being fully vaccinated.
The cases are being reviewed to determine if they meet other CDC criteria for determination of potential breakthrough, including the absence of a positive antigen or PCR test less than 45 days prior to the post-vaccination positive test.

Zero hospitalizations, mild symptoms or no symptoms... those facts right there make the vaccine worth it.0

Bad headline.
Good for clicks, I suppose.
I am surprised by the number of people who still don't know how vaccines such as this one work.
Vaccination is not personal immunity. It never has been. If enough people are vaccinated, however, it can lead to a herd immunity.
Ever received the flu shot, then still got a milder flu that season? That happened to me one year.Post edited by dankind onI SAW PEARL JAM0 -

So pathetic how these folks still bang on about comments made more than a year ago, when we all knew almost nothing about covid. It really demonstrates their agenda.my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0

Better to stick to not knowing anything about Americas response to covid.0 -

A third of COVID survivors suffer neurological or mental disorders: study
LONDON (Reuters) - One in three COVID-19 survivors in a study of more than 230,000 mostly American patients were diagnosed with a brain or psychiatric disorder within six months, suggesting the pandemic could lead to a wave of mental and neurological problems, scientists said on Tuesday.

COVID is not a hoax, but the numbers are: A look at the first flu season with COVID
The biggest killer of the 2019-2020 flu season won’t be COVID-19;
it will be irrational fear and the illusion of control.COVID-19 is equivalent to a bad flu. This has been said often over the past year and for good reason: People hear stories about a motorcycle crash victim being declared a COVID-19 death, and they feel COVID-19 may be over-counted. They hear stories of seniors quickly deteriorating and dying of loneliness, and they suspect many excess deaths may not have been directly caused by COVID-19.
We have spent years looking for an end-of-days pandemic, and, not finding one, we decided to manufacture our own. In fact, we could have done this for any bad flu season (I’ll show how later), but we chose 2020. Perhaps it is human nature that when things are going well, we look for an exit.
To be clear, COVID-19 is not a hoax. It is real and it causes real-world damage and real-world heartbreak, but it is not the killer it has been made out to be. Also, the medical profession has performed admirably with respect to direct care of patients. They learned from mistakes early on and developed treatments and protocols that have steadily reduced the deadliness of COVID-19. The speed at which vaccines have been developed is truly amazing.
Conversely, the public health response to COVID-19 has been an abysmal failure. At every turn, the effects and danger of COVID-19 have been exaggerated, and the collateral damage of government mandates and government- and media-induced panic has been swept under the rug. Official after official has turned a blind eye to once-accepted standards only to follow the virtue signaling, have-to-do-something crowd. The worst example of this tendency was last summer, when public health officials condoned mass protests as public health events.
How did we do it? How did we turn a disease that is equivalent to a bad flu into a worldwide disaster? We overreacted; we changed the way we detect viruses; we changed the way we record deaths; we tried to control the uncontrollable; we used COVID-19 as a political tool; we destroyed (literally and metaphorically) tens of thousands of lives with panic, lockdown, and restrictions; and we set in motion events that ensured the devastation will continue for years.
These are bold statements flying against the prevailing narrative. But they are also supportable with data.

This thread is stupid at this point. People posting shit from twitter, things opined about a year ago when we had little information, etc. It's so disingenuous. But seriously, keep fighting the fight that COVID isn't real. Maybe we'll re-do the election so Trump can win while we're at it.
