UAF Report -- LOS -- a cesspool of fabricated nonsense. Why don't you compare the deaths, hospitalizations, and cases from these states to Florida & Texas over recent months on a raw or per-capita basis. Also while noting that over 95% of the cases, hospitalizations, and deaths in these states are unvaccinated.
What a dumb cunt, and that is probably the most pervasive problem about this pandemic. All the feel-goody nature of this disease. No, this disease, like any other, is about protecting ME AND MY OWN! FUCK EVERYONE ELSE! I did not get this vaccine, or wear masks, or do all the other things, to protect someone else. I did it to protect ME and MY OWN. That is the selfish nature we have been operating with for 200,000 years. Why change the narrative now? These NIH and CDC bungholes totally fucked up the message. It comes down to the whole touchy-feelly "we must protect your children" shit, because "we are in your face and you do not know what you are doing in your own life".
The post above has to be one of the most ignorant posts in these forums in recent weeks. But this is what we have come to expect of anti-vaxxers. The reason other deadly diseases don't exist in society is because nearly everyone is vaccinated and we have reached herd immunity. This allows protection of everyone across society including the very small number of people where the vaccination does not take or are not vaccinated for some medical reason. The only REASON YOU AND YOUR OWN ARE PROTECTED is BECAUSE EVERYONE IS PROTECTED. Otherwise you would be apt to get a breakthrough case of a deadly disease despite being vaccinated. Let's take a look at the partial list of deadly diseases you are protected against via large-scale vaccinated herd immunity: Diphtheria Pertussis Polio Measles Mumps Rubella Smallpox and many others
You are missing the point of my rant. The point is that if they simply told everyone that the vaccine would protect THEMSELVES, then I feel a lot more people would have gotten it. For the selfish reasons that are inherent in the species. Humans are inherently selfish. So instead of telling them to get vaccinated to protect someone else, tell them to get it to protect THEMSELVES. Quite simple, really.
So what are you going to do to convince these unvaccinated people to protect THEMSELVES. When you bring up facts like over 95% of the people in the hospital and deaths are unvaccinated -- these anti-vaxxers are the same people screaming that this is fake information because they read some nonsense on social media. We have reached the point where all the reasonable adults have been vaccinated and most of the hold outs are low information people who follow conspiracy nonsense. At this time the only way to convince these unvaccinated hold-outs to get vaccinated is via mandates. As seen in surveys and in reality the only way these individuals will get vaccinated is if their employer mandates it or they are denied admission to most venues such as concerts, bar, and restaurants. I have already seen locally... the loudest anti-vax loudmouths become compliant as sheep and get vaccinated when they were told they would be out of a job. And keep in mind being vaccinated does not only protect themselves -- it helps stop clogging our healthcare system allowing other surgeries to be scheduled. As well has protecting everyone else by getting us to herd immunity so we can get back to a normal life.

Let's see how this anti-vaxxer prediction aged. What was your favorite part of The Vaccinated Zombie Apocalypse Of September 2021?
Not only in the U.S. but also in Europe --- the unvaccinated are going to lead to the continuation of lockdowns. "We are about to stumble into a pandemic of the unvaccinated." Unvaccinated Austrians warned they face new lockdown if they refuse jabs and cases rise https://www.the-sun.com/news/3926981/austria-faces-covid-lockdown-over-vaccination-rates/ AUSTRIANS refusing to get jabbed are being told they could face another lockdown. Chancellor Alexander Schallenberg said if cases continue to rise, he may be forced to issue anti-vaxxers with a stay-at-home order and ban them from certain venues. Schallenberg is in a fight against time to stop ICU wards in the country from being inundated with unvaccinated Austrians. The newly-appointed Chancellor announced that if Covid-19 patients in ICU reaches 500 - or 25 per cent of the country's total ICU capacity - entry into venues like hotels and restaurants will be limited to those who have had both jabs. If the number reaches 600 - or one third of total ICU capacity - the government could put in place restrictions that mean unvaccinated Austrians will need to stay at home and only leave the house for specific reasons. Currently, the number of COVID patients in ICUs stands at 220. In a press conference on Friday, Schallenberg said: "The pandemic is not yet in the rearview mirror. "We are about to stumble into a pandemic of the unvaccinated." In the past week, Austria has reported 20,408 new cases of the virus, according to health authorities, bringing the 7-day average to 228.5 per 100,000 inhabitants. A week earlier, that figure was at 152.5 per 100,000 inhabitants. Although Austria's government has encouraged citizens to get vaccinated, the effort has slowed in recent months. Some 65.4 per cent of the total population has received one dose of the vaccine, and 62.2 per cent are fully vaccinated.
