    So, bars and restaurants are close for five months, caush are high level risk,right??..
    But not here yeah??..haha..


    Well, public transit is kind of an essential service and it appears there is it least a mask mandate. Even so, you can't compare people packed in bars and sitting in restaurants maskless noshing on food for an hour to someone riding a bus with a mask on for what, 15 minutes on average? You can see the difference, right?
    Well if people get the luxury of riding a public bus to work,  school,  grocery store,  then why can't I get smashed in a bar 5 days a week.  It makes no sense. 

    Riding public transit is a luxury?  Whoa!  Man, where you live?  I wanna be there!

    I think there's some sarcasm there (i.e., travel to work is more important that clubbling), but for some people it is at least a perk. I live right on the Green Line light rail transit (LRT) line in St. Paul, MN and my wife and I have one car. I love(d) it. I never drove to Twins games, work, etc. Now I haven't been on it for a year. It's a loss.
    Is that you understand??..clubbing is more important than go to work??..
    he was being completely sarcastic.

    This is concerning.

    The optics are more concerning than the reality. I don't think the media is savvy enough to frame this for what it is; a risk on one of the three vaccines that is like 1/1000 the risk of a blood clot with COVID. The pause is OK, but the worst part is that it's likely to scare some uncertain people off from any vaccine. Kinda like when I was a kid in the 1980s and older folks that grew up without seatbelts would not wear them because they heard a story about someone being trapped in their car by a seatbelt. The math was against them, but they were primed for an excuse.

    Well with issues from Astrozenica and J&J you can’t be too upset with those arguing the vaccines are rushed.

    she thinks or has read jannsen pissed off the previous admin and that j&j has been on the outscwith gop for quite some time.


    similar to AZ. think it was oftenreading posted the percentage of dead vs number of shots then posted other percentages for everyday shit we dont blink an eye at. AZ dead

    J&J stock has taken a big hit as a result.

    so they said 6 known dead within the first 2 weeks of injection. 6.8 million doses given. whats that, 1 for every 1.15 million?

    I dont mean to minimize these tragedies at all. sure their families are heart broken.

    greater good argument at play here I think. what we are seeing really with all of them at this point is real time trials on a very wide scale.

    Agreed.

    From the CDC (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/safety/adverse-events.html):

    Reports of death after COVID-19 vaccination

    To date, Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) has not detected patterns in cause of death that would indicate a safety problem with COVID-19 vaccines.

    • FDA requires vaccination providers to report any death after COVID-19 vaccination to VAERS.
    • Reports of death to VAERS following vaccination do not necessarily mean the vaccine caused the death.
    • CDC follows up on any report of death to request additional information and learn more about what occurred and to determine whether the death was a result of the vaccine or unrelated.
    • CDC, FDA, and other federal partners will continue to monitor the safety of COVID-19 vaccines.

    Over 167 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through April 5, 2021. During this time, VAERS received 2,794 reports of death (0.00167%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. CDC and FDA physicians review each case report of death as soon as notified and CDC requests medical records to further assess reports. A review of available clinical information including death certificates, autopsy, and medical records revealed no evidence that vaccination contributed to patient deaths. CDC and FDA will continue to investigate reports of adverse events, including deaths, reported to VAERS.

    I love that this board sees anything opposed to their own political views as "conspiracy" or "Q" type stuff, yet this guy posts a literal conspiracy theory and gets no backlash because it aligns with the collective views.  Got it.  Wife is a nurse read jannsen pissed off the previous admin and "j&j has been on the outscwith gop for quite some time." and the stock is tanking.  Yep, checks out.

    BTW, if only somebody around here expressed hesitancy to taking these vaccines....  Some more interesting reading below, and I would recommend going to her twitter feed as she is a big liberal, on some of the effects of the vaccines.
