Covid-19 Discussion (moderated)
Sort:
I thought Taiwan was alright, but not anymore. And they only have gotten themselves a few doses of Astra-Zeneca so far...
Taiwan blames China for slowing down its access to Covid-19 vaccines. The reality is more complicated

You can definitely talk about how there's still doubt about patient zero, etc. but you need to stop short of declaring Covid-19 a man-made (or purposefully released) virus.
Well, some experts think that the theory of the virus escaping from the Wuhan´s lab, while highly unlikely, can´t be dissmissed until a deeper research is made.
Pfizer is saying about 10 months between booster shots
We are not in such a glorious place so far globally . Everyone has to be vaccinated and it is not happening so far. Numbers are eloquent 🥳 https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/coronavirus-covid19-canada-world-may24-2021-1.6038485
I identify as vaccinated

The Indian variant needs 2 doses, whether it's Moderna or Pfizer. WITH Only one, the odds of someone being safe are at 33 % . Just heard it on the 📻 radio. And from article: https://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/health/oxfordastrazeneca-vaccine-80-effective-against-b16172-variant-says-uk-study/article34622213.ece
... with Astra-Zeneca it's only 6% efficiency. Might be mixing things up myself a little but better be safe than sorry . Don't hesitate before 2nd dose. CHEERS!
I have zero doses
And I walk RIGHT INTO THE GYM with NO MASK
“Sir, are you fully vaccinated?”
*I identify as fully vaccinated.
I get an odd stare for a moment....then I’m let right in

That's your friend 's Gym?
It's predicted that the people who thought they didn't need a vaccine will also not wear a mask. While the other people, those who have been vaccinated, are still reluctant to take their mask off.

Welcome
Its very simple actually. You have to understand the history but you wern't here when the 1st thread started. When the virus started, tournaments we're shut down. So after awhile someone said....."Is It Safe To Go To Tournaments Yet"? And here we are.
Looks like we got a new variant coming out of Vietnam.

No that’s not my friends gym it’s one of the regular gyms I attend in New York.
Same as Costco or Walmart: I simply stroll in and if anyone asks if I’m vaccinated I tell them ‘I identify as vaccinated’.
Usually with a smug grin.
In my state anyone vulnerable has already been vaccinated. If you’re a vulnerable person and still haven’t been vaccinated here you deserve what you get.
I don’t need to get vaccinated because I have a greater chance of dying from lightning strike than Covid and since everyone around me who has a higher chance is immunized....it’s masks off for me.
And the wacky rules of this state be damned.
The BALLS of a state like New York to allow my children to wrestle....no masks, grip fighting, heads pressed together laying on top of each other....the tell them they cannot shake hands after the match because they must social distance.
Pretty much everyone where I’m from has had it with these rules and taken out masks off, vaccinated or not, and just like every other place that’s done the same there’s no increase in cases whatsoever.

You mean there's *seemingly* no increases in cases whatsoever. Given that every state that relaxed restrictions pre-vaccine had a documented uptick in cases, I'm going to just put your perceptions down to confirmation bias until you have some data from a reliable source to back you up.
Please do not spread the implication that there are a set of absolutely "vulnerable" people and a set that that are "not vulnerable". Your statistical chance of dying of Covid is greater than being struck by lightning, no matter what your age or health 
.
I would just skip the middleman next time you walk into a store and say "I identify as smug".
Some places It's not getting better. There were some protests in Brazil 🇧🇷 yesterday
In Taiwan 🇹🇼 they 're still wearing their marks If I understand well
Because....There is an outbreak in Taiwan
