Interesting interpretation of the term ‘Karen’ here. I think of Karens as the ones running around bitching and demanding others follow rules and regulations, not the other way around.

Parent on PTO zoom last night was grilling our principal on keeping kids apart at recess..

Yeah I bet that parent is a real laid-back and totally down to earth person. Those kids need to stop playing at recess, they are being Karens.

The women who yell at kids working fast food jobs because they’re told to wear a mask? Karens.

I always figured Karens were just petty trouble makers. But girls.

Indeed.

If the phrase “How dare you” was a person, that’s a Karen.

Hasn't this been discussed?

Oregon wants test-to-stay in schools, but supply chain shortage getting in the way

 

[Phatguysrule]

This seems logical... If you aren't current on all recommended vaccines you're not fully vaccinated.

Got Covid booster yesterday. Mild sore arm, flu shot was worse. Hopefully done with any needles except for knitting.

Irony

It's not logical to need a booster so soon... If the shots were highly effective.

We have actual data which shows you're 100% wrong...

 

[andalusian]

It's not logical to need a booster so soon... If the shots were highly effective.

Of course it does because the virus mutated so much. You keep on judging this virus as if it is any other virus we are familiar with. There is a reason this caused a world wide pandemic which we have not had in the last 100 years.

The expectations that we will fix it immediatly are absurd. This is not situation normal and unfortunately all the people that tried to treat it as such and continue to treat it as such are causing it to stay around longer.

Some people can’t grasp this reality. I’m not saying they are dumb.

I’m getting my booster on Tuesday, almost 6 months to the day after my second shot. Sometimes (actually often) “logical” comes in second to “peace of mind”. I recently spent most of a week wandering through unmasked and unvaccinated Wyoming, Nebraska and Kansas. Those folks act like they never heard of a pandemic, or the protocols involved in dealing with one. Yet I made it through without getting sick. I give virtually ALL the credit to the vaccine (with a shout out to masks…worn by me…and proper hygiene, again, by me). You don’t seem to appreciate people being “shamed” for not being vaccinated, yet I get the feeling you’re trying to shame people who get the boosters. You can’t play it both ways……….

BTW…..I’ve been inoculated against Hep B for decades. It is a VERY effective vaccine. However, based on health issues, body chemistry, life styles, etc, etc, etc, some people require a booster, as their immunity drops over time. It doesn’t mean the vaccine in ineffective, just that not all humans react the same to all things (unless it’s death and taxes of course….). Boosters are exactly that; boosters.

That's an amusing way of putting it.

I've been willingly inoculated against everything there is as a child in the 50s, a soldier who had to go overseas and as a potential transplant patient including hepatitis B.

Touche.

Did you actually read this article or did you just excitedly copy and paste something that might make Fauci look bad? Because the article disproves the title.

Because the article disproves the title.

So the rules is that you have to show your vaccination card to get into games? So they pick someone to perform the national anthem that’s not vaccinated and opposes vaccine mandates to sing?

Are you saying that some data analyst from New Zealand knows more than anyone else. I'm going to have to see some credible evidence of that.

#ArrestFauci trends on Twitter as doctor faces criticism for controversial virus research, testing on dogs
Fauci has been widely criticized for allegedly funding inhuman testing on dogs with taxpayer dollars
By Andrew Mark Miller | Fox News

The phrase #ArrestFauci was trending on Twitter Sunday afternoon in response to multiple controversies surrounding Dr. Anthony Fauci.

Twitter users posted the hashtag calling out Fauci over reports that hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars were used to subject dogs to cruel testing before ultimately killing them.

FLASHBACK: MEDIA DEFENDED ANTHONY FAUCI'S FALSE CLAIMS ABOUT WUHAN LAB FUNDING IN FEUD WITH RAND PAUL

Additionally, Fauci has been criticized after an NIH official appeared to confirm that taxpayers funded gain of function research on the coronavirus at a lab in Wuhan, China despite Fauci’s repeated claims that was not the case.

In July, Republican Sen. Rand Paul called for the Department of Justice to issue a criminal referral against Fauci for lying to Congress about gain of function research funded by the NIH.

"I will be sending a letter to Department of Justice asking for a criminal referral because he has lied to Congress. We have scientists that were lined up by the dozens to say that the research he was funding was gain-of-function," the Kentucky Republican told Fox News' Sean Hannity.

"He's doing this because he has a self interest to cover his tracks and to cover his connection to Wuhan lab," Paul continued.
