Omicron: Natural immunity idea ‘not really panning out'

[El OchoCinco]

It seems like you put a lot of words in my mouth that I have never said or even insinuated.

First of all, I work from home so I don't come in contact with a lot of people to begin with. If I feel like I'm getting sick I put myself on lockdown, which means I don't even leave the house for two weeks. Period. And that's something I've always done... long before Covid ever came along. I think anyone who willingly goes out in public while they are sick with something contagious is quite frankly an asshole.

Second, I'm not an anti-vaxxer. I've said repeatedly that if you've never had Covid before and you are the typical human that never exercises or pays much attention to diet, you'd be an idiot to not get vaccinated at this stage of the game.

Third, I never said wearing masks is not science or made a negative comment about cleaning protocols.

Fourth, I never stated that I had a belief in the "nothingness of the viruses". As I stated earlier, I am very sensitive about spreading anything to other people, either from myself or from any other member of my family.

And finally, there is a big misconception that vaccinated people are somehow immune to spreading Covid. Although the risk of getting and spreading prior versions of Covid by vaccinated people are greatly reduced, they can still get infected and spread a new variant like Omicron just like an unvaccinated person can. And that's exactly why the Pfizer CEO said prior vaccines and boosters aren't doing much to prevent vaccinated people from getting infected with a new variant like this newest one and that's why we're seeing Omicron spread like wildfire.

Well the point was not putting words in your mouth but reapeating what I heard out of other mouths so apologies for the confusion. My you was just phrasing generally.

The point is as I said 2 posts back is not the vaccines as that is you and your immunity.

My biggest issue is most people who are against the vax (not you) also push a narrative that teh other stuff is garbage too about stopping the spread and which is why we have situations where spread keeps growing in many states regardless of state color.

As far as your shared opinion that people who go out sick are assholes, we are finding many people who believe COVID is nothing are going out without protections and demand others stay home (hence my smoking analogy when the cancer claims were first made about smoke). Does not matter if we have 100% vaccination if people still fight over means to stop it from spreading or claiming we should all just get it already and not worry about the spread.

I was just piggy backing off of your comments.

The numbers in the U.S. and elsewhere on child hospitalizations in recent weeks are widely available and have been posted multiple times.

Link to them. Please be sure they are specific about with COVID and from COVID, and please have comparison data for other maladies as I mentioned.

You realize there is an entire thread regarding children and covid providing this information.

How many times do you expect people to re-post the same stuff to amuse you. Those days are over.

My post had nothing to do with vaxxing so you glossed over it and answered what you wanted to say before reading my post so...

Your first three sentences, my emphasis for clarity:

But you agree you can spread if you caught it, especially asymptomatically, and you dont have a choice who you spread it to. I dont push any vax politics on anyone but when people want everyone around them to be as lax with their health protocols as they are, then you are spreading the same hypocrisy.​

It is like a smoker who has no fear of lung cancer demanding to be able to smoke in front of people and telling them to get over it.​

That's kinda what I thought you'd say to get out of it.

For @Tsing Tao ignorance is bliss.

I didn't refuse to read, I said "show me specifically what you want me to read". That's how it works. I say "source" and you provide a source.

When you ask me "source", I don't link to google and say "go read". That's what the GWB_NPC (and apparently you) do.

For @gwb_trading ignorance is a way of life.

Yeah... and we will provide the links and three days you will be back demanding they be provided again. Your act is getting old.
