So I guess we're no longer fighting a pandemic of the unvaccinated.

Good to know for future reference. I suppose the diaper-sharts will show up screaming Trump as usual.

WTH is a "diaper-shart"?
 
Last contact with Biden.

Tuesday, “when we sat outside more than 6ft apart and wore masks”.

She also said that “thanks to the vaccine I have only experienced mild symptoms, which has enabled me to continue working from home.

Sounds like a quick recovery will happen.

Think about how stupid that sounds. Do we wear masks and stay 6 feet apart from people who have also received the polio vaccine?

"I only have a mild case of mumps, chicken pox, tetanus, measles, tuberculosis, and typhoid fever due to my vaccination. But I'll continue to mask and remain 6 feet from people just in case they are also vaccinated and masked."

Recovery is nowhere on the horizon. Only more madness.
 
I'm interested to see what "working from home" looks like, for a woman whose job is briefing the press. A massive Zoom meeting perhaps?

If there's a polio outbreak in the area, very likely YES. That is not a disease you want to catch.

Vaccines ever since the cowpox vaccine have been deactivated, and with the new mRNA vaccines they emulate only the attachment proteins (forgive, I forget what they're called) on the outside of Covid.

Nobody gets a "mild case of mumps" etc. All the after-effects of vaccine are sensations of the immune system responding.

It's hard to believe you really don't know this.

Speak for yourself. I am thoroughly recovered from anti-vax madness. If I remember correctly, the immune system known as MAH BRAIN fought it off in 24 hours.

And your basis for this is... one person got mild symptoms?

So, what this tells me is that you believed "pandemic of the unvaccinated" meant "literally zero vaccinated people have gotten infected."

I would very much like your confirmation that this is what you believed, because that would be hilarious.
 
I will note that the protocol she followed was '1) upon learning a member of her staff tested positive, she canceled travel plans and self isolate
2) Tested several times.

It seems that she is doing a good job in insuring she does not infect others.

When she had met with President Biden, they social distanced, and both wore masks.
 
Break through cases happen, we know that, but they are almost always mild. It is the unvacinated end up in hospital. If we want this to become more like the flu we need to limit serious illnesses. I know, complicated concept for some.
 
That's the thing about Covid, neither having it and surviving (majority of people survive I think?) nor getting vaccinated makes you immune. It just reduces the severity of the next time you get it, if ever.
At least, as I understand it.
 
a member of our church didn't come to church today.....they were with family making the very hard decision of withdrawing life support on their loved one who had gotten Covid and was unvaccinated....
 
If Jen was unvaccinated this would be a story. It really only matters if an unvaccinated fool gets infected. This is really just a pandemic of the unvaccinated.
 
doesn't sound 'stupid' to me, as i was a young child when the polio vaccine began being administered
until then, many/most(?) of us kids were kept apart from each other because a solid understanding of the contagion factors was not then known. neither was the period of time until the polio vaccine could be widely disseminated and found effective to the point we could 'come out' into the public sphere
it reminds me a lot of our current era in that regard

no. instead, i would reserve the term 'stupid' for those who believe it is wrong to exercise appropriate public health measures

It’s a completely meaningless story. She will 100% be fine. If she was unvaccinated and obese she would be in trouble. This is why Trump almost died.

that is not always the case. In the so called 'natural immunity', a fairly substancial people do not develop an immune response to getting sick, or a useful one at least
