I Don't Understand (covid)

Please correct me if I' wrong here:

Vaccinated people can still catch and spread covid, correct? So what is even the plan here? Lock us down again? Which will do what exactly? Are we waiting for another vaccine to stop the new multiple strains popping up? How long would that event take... Enforcing the vaccine wont change the amount of "covid cases"



please correct me if im wrong at any point here (srs)

It helps provide some immunity. It is better than nothing. Basically, new lockdowns are inevitable once cases skyrocket. We get to repeat last year all over again unless they can come out with a delta shot or some sort of treatment.

That or people won't lockdown and the economy will get trashed when there are widspread deaths and hospitals are overrun.

Also, you can look forward to more variants in the future.

Very good question. Waiting for the resident "$cienti$t$" to chime in.


Edit- too late.


Sounds like we just need to run through the Greek alphabet and provide a booster shoot for each strain and get double booster shots for each of the double variants and when we reach OMEGA OMEGA OMEGA OMEGA OMEGA strain, just get five boosters and trust the science.

At this point, the way it's being handled(not saying it doesn't exist, not saying older people shouldn't get vaccinated)is blatant social engineering. It's trauma conditioning.
Everything they've said about this virus from Dec 2019 until now has flip flopped to such a degree, how can anyone rightly know what's going on?

What's most disgusting, to me, is that the vaccine has now become this battleground. People who didn't get it getting lumped in with people who deny all medicine. People dehumanizing anyone who wants to wait the standard 5 - 10 years to see the long term effects.
Fancy that, biggest transferal of wealth in human history during the pandemic. Fancy that, throwing a death counter on every major news outlet and scaring the sh!t out of people.

They want everyone scared and subservient. Regardless of the severity you think the virus has, you can't deny the blatant descent into global neo-communism that is resulting from how governments are handling this situation.
Never let a good crisis go to waste. Order out of chaos.

GET THE JAB, YOU FILTHY UNWASHED MASSES! We can't even call it vaccination, we have to patronize you like you're livestock! Medical autonomy is a racist, misogynist, white supremacist dog whistle! You must vote Trump if you deny the vaccine he spearheaded! HAHAHA! QTard!

Everyone knows round 2 of lockdowns and masks is pointless but the vax crowd will get mad and blame it on the anti vax crowd thus taking the attention away from the elite. They need us mad at each other so we don’t get mad at them. Same thing happens with race.

Your mask doesn’t work unless I wear mine.
Your experimental shot doesn’t work unless I get mine.

So guess what. You’ll just have to die.

You're still less likely to get infected if you're vaccinated.

If you do get infected, you are less likely to experience severe disease and far less likely to need hospitalization, far less likely to die.

Lmao, logical analysis is pointless.

The vast majority of human beings do not think logically - instead, they allow their emotions and mental heuristics to cloud their judgment and arrive at fallacious conclusions.

It is 100% clear that COVID will be endemic, but the normie human mind can not fathom this and needs closure or some kind of "action" (even if said action is pointless in the long run).

I would just make peace with yourself and the fact that most people in charge of government are not making logical decisions.....with this in mind, look for opportunities to boost your living standards/net worth and take advantage of human irrationality...there's plenty of that in the market.

If you fight the tide of human stupidity, it will drag you in and drive you insane....VERY SRS DO NOT DO THIS - YOU WILL FCKING GO MAD.

But far more likely to spread the disease...to vaxxed and unvaxxed people.

Who told you that you're far more likely to spread the virus if you are vaccinated?

We need at least 90% of the population to get vaccinated bro, that’s how we stop the virus. Science says so. Stop being selfish and get the vaccine you don’t trust, so you can protect your next door neighbor Deborah; even though she already got the vaccine, you need to get it also to protect her. That’s how it works bro.

You can only lockdown for so long before society gets tired of it all and I think the majority of people have already reached their threshold already.

fully vaccinated here but find everything going on so ****ing ridiculous

we are never going to fully get back to normal until every state and media stops reporting every single positive case

“6 students test positive at X University!”

who the **** cares if they are asymptomatic or just mild symptoms?

but they can still spread it and kill someone!

ok, then they stay home, watch a movie and eat chicken noodle soup like you do anytime you don’t feel well..

You literally have to be infected for the vaccine to have effect - if you're not infected, what are the antibodies that the vaccine made your body produce going to do?
Hang around in your body for years before you need a booster, like with the antibodies from the mumps vaccine?

I'd hope for a return to social distancing first.

they're not inevitable. lockdowns only come from tyrant blue state governors.

Free states will see no lockdowns. Crazy how clowns like yourself dont see that.

There is no plan. All these mandates and orders are just to make you think they have a handle on the situation so you don't start disregarding them entirely.

So far 0.1% of the US population has died from Covid. That's in over 18 months.

We have a casedemic right now. Not a big deal. Unvaccinated old people and middle aged cows are dying, just like day 1.

No lockdowns coming. A few cities of cucks may shut down some businesses, but that will be the extent of it. Most adults have already been infected. Daily infections are in fact much, much higher, resulting in little. But people are more likely to be asymptomatic and aren't running to get a PCR test over some sniffles anymore. Testing is the least it's been. Everyone is going to get it. It's here to stay. Getting infected twice is very rare.

Even though he's a Democrat, my governor is letting the mask mandate for kids in schools expire.

OP has a great point.

If you haven't gotten the vaccine yet, it's too late if you don't want some protection against Delta. It's already spreading freely. Almost everyone will being exposed within 6 weeks, which is how long it takes to be fully vaxxed.

Hopefully your "immune system is your mask", or whatever you guys are saying these days. Deaths/hospitalizations should be nowhere near wave 2 though.

So it's not 100% effective. Nothing in life is. Seatbelts aren't 100% effective.

But for those who it is effective in (estimates are 70-95% of vaccinated people), they will not catch it and spread it.

The more people who are vaccinated, the less that can catch it and the less it can mutate to new strains.

Don't listen to science-illiterate miscers who slept through science class who said vaccinated people will still catch it; they can (because, again, nothing in life is 100% effective), but it greatly reduces the odds (by 70-95%)
