Moving on...
The C.D.C. said that as of April 26, of the more than 95 million people in the United States who had been fully vaccinated, it knew of 9,245 breakthrough infections. Of those, there were 835 hospitalizations and 132 deaths.

Beginning on Friday, though, the C.D.C. said it would change the way it reported breakthrough infections to only those who were hospitalized or died — the two most severe outcomes from contracting Covid-19. In other words, the Yankees’ cases wouldn’t fall under that category going forward.
This calculates to 0.00001% of vaccinated people having symptoms/death.

Of that 0.00001% do we get a breakdown of obesity or other existing health problems?

The Yankees cases are so stupid. They test for no reason. I read that Aaron Boone was tested three times yesterday. If you hunt cases pointlessly you will eventually find some via false positives or pointless asymptomatic infections that would probably be found if we hunted any other viral infection in the same way.

Phil Nevins immune system is probably trashed from steroid abuse and he was the only one who even got the sniffles.

The people that end up dead after vaccination are probably all old and sick.

Quit being a dick to people that have done nothing that affects you in any way.

Maybe he just needs a vacation? I've read his posts all year - he whines a ton but says he's followed the rules, like a good boy. Maybe he just couldn't handle the precautions like wearing a mask, and it made him bitter?

Covid definitely broke him. It makes his tough guy trolling act even more ridiculous.

you say therapy like its a bad thing


personally i dont see why you get so worked up that people wear masks at all, pandemic or not. it affects you absolutely in no way shape or form. its as irrational as i think people who wear crocs out in public should be executed so maybe we arent so different, other than im not completely unhinged like you are

Executing people for wearing crocs is pretty unhinged, peeps. :)

I fully support your desire to wear a mask anywhere you want.

All I want is the Covid related laws to be based on the science of how it spreads and stop with the ones that are about behaviour modification (i.e. we will close bars at 10pm because people may make riskier decisions with more drinking time).
Think I’m going to try being kind to everyone a chance.

So, if your data says that a significant proportion of cases are coming from people in bars after 10pm, give me an example of a law that would mitigate that?

I thought that was an example of rule that he DIDN'T like.

Every bit helps. If you want to risk ED, go right ahead.

The vaccine works. I'm probably going to fuck the shit out of my wife tonight. It's 70 and sunny here. Just landed a promotion. It really sucks my brain is broken though.
