There's a 1/1,000,000 chance you will be run over by a car while walking on the sidewalk.

Therefore you should walk in a traffic lane of the highway.

mayhem8, you can quote all the studies you want. If there is one chance in a million that is too high for me, my body my choice.

I am having way more problems with side effects from my pneumonia shot I just got than I ever got from my covid shots, but I'm sure some do experience more side effects from the covid vaccine than others

I Googled "can vaccine cause myocarditis". One of the things I found is a Yale article relative to the Covid vaccine that said, "The side effect is considered important but uncommon—arising in about 12.6 cases per million second doses administered." Another section indicated it happened mostly in men under 30.

If someone has had this happen to them twice from other vaccines, it would seem they'd be like gold to anyone researching this. It wouldn't surprise me if this was some extremely rare genetic disorder, but if someone had that sort of track record with vaccines, I bet places like NIH would pay for a DNA test to try to pinpoint a cause and possibly eliminate it from happening to others in the future.

Obviously the risks aren't zero from any med like the Covid vaccine, but this kind of research could help get it closer to zero. Not all that long ago, it wasn't even possible to fully sequence someone's DNA while today it is both doable and fairly inexpensive.

mayhe8, I have arrhythmia problems and have had myocarditis as a result of two vaccines given to me during my military service. I will take my chances with Covid and my natural immunity before taking the vaccine and getting another case of myocarditis knowing full well that the shot has caused it in others. We make decision based on the best information we have or obtain and what is best for us. I don't fault those that have taken the shot nor those that haven't, they each made their own personal choice.

"For all I know, in 20 years, I might drop dead due to getting vaccinated"

Yep, and you could be dead before then for any number of other reasons. if people felt that way about polio or smallpox vaccines perhaps we'd still be fighting those today as well.

The irony is that many of the same anti-vaxxers are the same ones that want the "freedom" to just live their life as if none of this was even happening and telling others that they should be too. They're getting their wish because many vaccinated people are saying "Fuck it" and no longer care if they get it and infect unvaccinated people.

Perhaps the unvaccinated will have the last laugh in the end if there really are some long term negative effects from the vaccine, but at the rate technology is advancing, they'll likely have a fix for that too if it ever did happen. Some # of the anti-vaxxers simply won't live long enough to have that last laugh, and a larger portion of them may be living with long term damage from Covid, because they're only looking at "surviving" Covid, but not the potential lasting effects from it.

@VA, WTF are you talking about? Try reading my post again. That is Destins post from five days ago. I was proving to him that his posts are still on that thread.

I think people need a little vacation form all this Covid stuff.

That's stupid.

You could walk out your door and get hit by a bus.

I was listening to the news between football games. They stated that of the people hospitalized with COVID in San Diego County, the unvaccinated outnumber the vaccinated by 23 to 1.

People REALLY seem to have a problem with the concept of "odds" it seems. The odds are that the vaccine will be safe and effective for the vast majority of people. That is a fact.

Can people that get the vaccine still get Covid? Of course, just like a miniscule # of people could have a problem with side effects, but the odds are that they will be safe and effective unless you have a specific medical condition that renders them otherwise.

The odds of worse things happening from not getting vaccinated are much higher than the odds of bad things happening from getting vaccinated.

"That is not a fact because "safe" and "effective" are emotional words with no predefined definitions."

That's odd... I found definitions to both words in every dictionary I looked at.

tbrmskssVeteran

No.

There is data to support the assertion that the vaccines are both safe and effective.

Mayhem hit the target. Disseminating misformation and untruths is not a debate. People can disagree on issues, but not on facts. The covid vaccine is safe and effective: fact.

You can still have an agreement and it not be misinformation, at least on your part. If you repeat something as a statement of fact, and it's wrong, then you're just wrong and we can disagree. If it's proven to be wrong and you keep saying it, it's misinformation.

If you state, I believe so-and-so when they say blah-blah, that is an opinion. The opinion may be based on misinformation, but it isn't intentionally saying something that you know is wrong to further some sort of agenda.

There's a difference between having a disagreement and defending/propagating info that you know to be incorrect. Especially when that info is dangerous and can result in others making bad decisions based on it.

<p>Destinbchcouple,</p>

<p>I just Tested this. You can see all your posts in that other thread and you can still post in that thread. Blocks do not work the way you describe. When someone blocks you, they can no longer see your forum posts. You can still see your own posts and you can still post in a thread they started. </p>

“Now the left has said a disagreement is misinformation.”

No, misinformation and disinformation is a tactic used to support your side of a disagreement when you don’t have facts to back up your position. It is not about left or right, it’s about right or wrong. Facts and science beat lies and conspiracy theories no matter which side if the aisle you are on.

As for being unable to post (or see your posts) in a thread in which the OP blocked you, that doesn’t make sense. I have posted in threads here that were started by someone who has blocked me.

_rabbit_n_scamp_, glad that my comments are still there. The reason I can't see them is because he blocked me. I can't see them as he started the thread nor can I make additional comments on the thread. Censorship, is everywhere. In the past if we disagreed with someone it was a disagreement. Now the left has said a disagreement is misinformation.

Onehelluva, I have seen so much of the junk you guys post.

I am certainly not the only actually educated person who is beyond tired of uneducated (at least in this area) people attempting to convince me that they are the ones with the knowledge.

I have gone 'round and 'round with so many of you, here and otherwise. You all believe what you believe and there is absolutely nothing that I could ever explain to you that will help you hopeless fucking idiots.

“The individual who started Covid Lite - Hold the insults blocked me therefore deleting all of my posts on that thread.”

Nope, I just scrolled back and all of your lies, misinformation and other useless drivel is still there.

Your post from five days ago is still there.

vabeachcouple33, have you read the articles or watched the interview that I mentioned? If not you are the one that knows nothing about what you say. You are the one that shows your ignorance, at least I am trying to educate myself, more than I can say for you. The majority of vaxtards don't want to hear alternate information because they believe in the science and will continue to take boosters until they have no immune system to protect them.
I will continue to take hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin as it seems to work in other parts of the world and is working in my area. Do you ever wonder why they want to shut it down in the United States? It is call censorship and follow the money.

I've had a fair number of people block me, and none of my posts have disappeared...

Windermere, FL, Us

No idea. I'd be surprised if the site were removing disinformation, but that's the only thing I can think of, given the specific posts of yours that have been removed.
