Yet you’re the one who thinks the media and the government are all in on some conspiracy while you hide out in your survival bomb shelter. Talk about fear porn. You need to get a life outside of your computer….seriously.Quote:

Especially the second one, don't understand how anybody working in a hospital doesn't want to be vaccinated right now.
Several of our friends and neighbors are Doctors and a few others work in hospital administration. Still a relatively small sample size, obviously, but they say that all of the Doctors are vaccinated and virtually all of the nurses. When you see the stats about 'medical professionals' being unvaccinated and spreading COVID at lot of it is probably orderlies and staff at nursing homes and LTC facilities.Quote:

Please just put him on 'ignore' like the rest of of have and move on. You are arguing with the crazy guy on the street corner. He isn't going to see your point. There are people you disagree with, and people that just aren't worth talking too. Ask yourself which one he is.Quote:

Wow that is a crazy low percentage. Wonder why….Quote:

Is this sarcasm? It has to be. It is amusing how many people have the exact same position and stance as you and then follow it up with something about "Not being controlled" "think for yourself" etc...see the irony?Quote:

You are in a position where you are potentially treating immunocompromised patients, and you took the hippocratic oath. Even if the vaccine isn't foolproof it still pretty clearly helps.Quote:

Hopefully we can expand productive capacity and help some of these other countries start to produce our vaccines.
It's definitely clear that this thing probably isn't going away at all, but that blunting the spread can help us reduce the likelihood of a really nasty(ier) variant coming about. Delta is bad enough.
Obviously the anti-vaxxers among us can feel free to just stay out of this one. We know how you feel.
Looks like Xavier went mask mandatory today. Bummer.
Let’s hope we’re done with that before basketball season starts! Somehow, I doubt it.Quote:

I’ve done the same thing with the ‘manual ignore’ but I always end up responding, and then regretting it when I realize I’m in an argument with someone who is either insane or challenged. There are several people who are close, but Lou is the only one I have on ignore. There is no value to engaging with him.Quote:

Now he has resorted to name calling (you are a “mental midget”) while saying people who can’t handle debate try to deride and discredit the other side. It’s amusing on a certain level.Quote:

Are you trying to equate “anti-vaxxers” with “mental midgets”? Really? I had hoped you were better than that.Quote:

Sounds like more CDC incompetence.
Unwillingness to hear another’s opinion, or worse yet, facts that dispute your beliefs, is a sure sign that you are insecure in the validity of your opinion.Quote:
