Well it depends where you live, but it hovers around 1% which might not sound that bad but its enough to kill over 5 million people worldwide. And its so transmissible that at one point everyone will either be vaccinated or have gotten sick. Would you rather get sick and roll the dice? I certainly wouldn't.

Not to mention the long term effects of covid which aren't totally understood right now but there's evidence that it damage the lungs, heart and brain. There's people who are permanently disabled from covid. Fatality rate isn't everything. The flu has a fatality rate of less than 0.1% and getting the flu still sucks. I've had some pretty ugly episodes of flu and I wouldn't wish that upon anybody.

The safest course of action for individuals is getting the vaccine.

And downplaying the significance of something that has killed 5 million people is irresponsible if you ask me. Thats over a million benghazis.

The emotions you or I feel are not really relevant. Whats important is getting people vaccinated and stopping them from spreading misinformation. Its not cool, and its not funny.

The last thing we want is to downplay the significance of another 5M. That's 833K Waukesha parade murders caused by an SUV. Our emotions are not really relevant.

That is called an anecdote. Anecdotes are notoriously unreliable peices of information. Thats why we invented something called a study.

I'll take anecdotes over the propaganda and fearmongering that I see on various news channels.

As for studies...I'm not that interested in the topic. It's hard to believe anything or anybody these days.

You're the only one talking about news. I'm talking about peer reviewed scientific studies. Do your 'stories' have more relevance than those do you think?

"Peer reviewed scientific studies." Hmmm. Sounds extraordinarily boring. I'll stick with the stories.

In the long run, it doesn't matter anyway.

Meaning is a human construct. So, no nothing matters. Yet, I have this annoying thing called empathy that makes me care for my fellow man. And for that reason, I greatly respect the 'boring' work the scientists and doctors are doing right now. We are all better of, from a health perspective, with them around.

Will you post any peer reviewed studies that disprove of potential long term heart damage caused by the new vaccine technology you want everyone to inject?
