You don't see a difference, do you?


How about this one. Some people get the flu vaccine and still get the flu. Is that better?


How about this one. Some cattle get vaccinated against brucellosis and still get it (along with a host of other diseses) and are culled. Is that better?

If you use cattle as our guide, we should cull (that's kill, but we use cull to not upset you feminine types) all AIDS patients? All positive COVID? After all, if it works with cattle, why wouldn't it work for people.


No, actually thats moronic. The point being that no vaccine or medical treatment for that matter is 100% guaranteed. If you get cancer, are you going to refuse treatment because it may not cure your cancer or perhaps we should treat you like cattle and cull you from the heard

I'm not the one beating the drum for the vaccine and telling everyone how wonderful it is. I ask, is it working? How do they know?

On first blush it would seem nothing has changed. People still testing positive, some getting sick, some not, same as ever. Nothing has changed.


Seriously? The number of cases have dropped as well as the number of deaths. Its why everything is opening up and going back to normal. You do realize that just because some people got the vaccine that covid isn't just going to disappear, right?



Jim you might want to rethink what you just posted.

Whether it’s true or not, most all of the media is reporting large upticks in cases both here in the USA and abroad.

Just fwiw.


That is in states with the lowest vaccination rates, ie red states. Also, what isn't mentioned in the original post about Israel is that in January 2021, 10,000 people were being diagnosed with covid a day and right now it is around 800 which is 1/12 the number it was back in January. Also, hospitalizations were 2000 a day in January and they are 120 a day now. It also does not mention that Israel reported a decrease in the effectiveness of the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine in preventing infections and symptomatic illness but said it remained highly effective in preventing serious illness.
