More likely is that no one in the government gives 2 shits what some MAGA retiree is doing. Those types are desperate to pretend they are relevant.
It's like when someone leaves a real asshole comment and then goes "I'm being brigaded!!!" lol. Naw lil buddy. You're not that important people just saw your comment and thought you were being a jerk
Better drink some colloidal silver in chlorine, no way could that be a scam. Gee why am I turning blue and shitting my guts out
Alas... Medicine has yet to advance from leeches.
Have them skip the leeches, go straight to being a blood donor.
Similar health benefit, but also help others. Last I checked, the Red Cross has declared an emergency from blood shortages, caused by fewer donors than ever.
Just tell people it will reduce the microplastics in their bloodstream.
No no no no. Blood Transfusions are evil!
Anti-vaxxers, of course. Everyone thank the anti-vaxxers with both middle fingers!
Agreed, but not just them, it is also about making sure vaccines are properly available and accessible, the clinics are open when parents are able to get to them (or out of work hours) and that their availability is properly advertised and promoted. It needs to be made as easy as possible for people to get their kids jabbed with as little impact on their daily schedules as possible.
Andrew Fucking Wakefield can never suffer enough for everything he’s responsible for
Well SOME of us are prepared, since we had parents who actually cared about our lives rather than virtue-signalling to their Facebook groups.
That’s not how herd immunity works, once the population reaches a certain threshold it all goes to the toilet because not everybody can sustain the same immunity over long periods of time.
Herd immunity makes it hard for the virus to jump from person to person because the statistics dictate how likely it is for transmission to occur.
When a large amount of people are immunized it is less likely for it to jump from a newly vaccinated child to an adult that got vaccinated years ago because of the buffers that might exist in between those people.
When a less than useful amount of people are vaccinated it is more likely that it will just jump to all of the adults with weaker immunity.
So even if you’re immunized, sometimes that immunity goes away quickly as it did with the COVID vaccine.
Humanity is reaping what they sowed.
Humanity is reaping what a handful of idiots sowed
FTFY
Well if we're so smart, then let's figure out a way to defend ourselves that the idiots won't just censor.
We need life imprisonment for those who can be vaccinated, but refuse
The problem is that the voluntarily unvaccinated give the disease the chance to circulate. Once in circulation it will harm some people who are vaccinated and some people who can't be vaccinated. Vaccination is in part an altruistic act that helps protect others. But antivaxers don't seem to understand this notion of doing something to protect other people.
Idiots like my sister.
She once sternly advised me "I won't have any chemicals in my home"
Wait until she hears about dihydrogen monoxide...
I asked her how she felt about nitrogen on her lawn
She exploded. I WON'T ALLOW IT!
I said what do you think most of the breathable atmosphere is made of and what do you think comes down with rain that makes your grass grow?
You know how well that went.
I often wonder what can be done to help these people escape the cycle of ignorance, but so far I have no clue.
Not sure how it is in US, but here in Australia, vaccination is required for school now (No Jab, no Play).
Maybe you guys need that.
Nice. 🙂🥹😭
I am, I don't leave my house.
Well, I’m fully prepared. And I’m also prepared to watch Darwinism in action.
