[EL PRESIDENTE]

CDC adjusted their metrics prior to State of the Union. Probably nothing.

That's what I thought.

do you even care about facts or just the shock value in bullshit gotcha tweets by trolls?

those graphs indicate completely different things. Kavita missed that in her initial tweet and later clarified it. This had nothing to do with the SOTU.

CDC has been woefully miserable at messaging but calling them out for THIS is idiotic. But given your tweets in this thread, it doesn't surprise me to see you immediately reference supposed political agendas.

Who legitimate is ignoring anything? The vaccine helps the vast majority of people who would die or be crippled survive with with no long term impacts.

So when they do eventually catch it they will enjoy the best of both worlds.

The concept of natural immunity was ignored for much of the pandemic.

I've had COVID twice now, and I'm fairly certain the reason I went a full two years between infections is natural immunity plus the shots.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

The concept of natural immunity was ignored for much of the pandemic.

No it hasn't.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

No it hasn't.

Yes, it has.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Everywhere checked my VaxxPassport in Oahu last month. Even outdoor food courts.



Unlike LA, they actually were pretty on the ball with complying.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Yes, it has.

Fun fact: When the covid-19 virus was first discovered no one had natural immunity to it.

Natural immunity, acquired immunity, and boosting one own's immune system are 3 different things that have been continually conflated.

 

[Phatguysrule]

Lol, no it wasn't. Not by any legitimate viroligist or epidemiologist.

Just govts creating rules and companies firing employees.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Just govts creating rules

Yes, that is one of the main functions of government, to create and enforce rules and laws.

companies firing employees.

Yes, companies are allowed to fire people.

Just so we're clear, and since you brought it up, antibody-based treatments are acquired immunity, not natural immunity.

Acquired immunity can be:

1. Vaccines
2. Being exposed to someone who is infected.
3. Antibody-based treatments.

 

[calvin natt]

Still remains such a weird, weird hill to die on, the whole “but I have my own immunity dammit” or “the vaccine isn’t perfect!” stance.

That doesn't mean anything was ignored at all...

Literally die on. Herman Cain award.

I have gotten hoarse saying this, but seat belts, motorcycle helmets and birth control are not perfect but are a hell of a lot better than wishing.
So are vaccines.
