Yes, they are nice vaccines. They lessen the severity of the virus if you get it. What part of that do you not understand, numbnuts?
The media does need to stop hyping this shit, though.

In other words, you got nothin'. Thought so. Stop hitting on me, twinkle toes. I don't swing that way.
Weak. Can't handle the truth. You still got nothin'. Sorry you're so confused, Arnold.
Isn't there a gay bathhouse you're supposed to be at, gay boy?
David would insert a baseball in his own ass if his trusted authority told him it would protect him from the 'anal' variant.
Don't hurt your back shifting those goal posts multiple times a week, obedient little bitch.

remember this?
ROFL DEADLY PANDEMIC
Then how do you explain the vast majority of covid cases and hospitalizations are now un-vaxxed peeps?

COVID-19 Vaccine Reduces Severity, Length, Viral Load for Those Who Still Get Infected
Data from the AZ HEROES study show COVID-19 vaccines are highly effective in preventing SARS-CoV-2 infections, and when breakthrough infections do occur, the level of infection and impact of the disease are significantly reduced.

People who contract COVID-19 even after vaccination are likely to have a lower viral load, experience a shorter infection time and have milder symptoms than those who are unvaccinated, according to research that includes data from ongoing University of Arizona Health Sciences studies.

"If you get vaccinated, about 90% of the time you're not going to get COVID-19," said Dr. Jeff Burgess, associate dean for research and professor at the Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health and principal investigator of the Arizona Healthcare, Emergency Response, and Other Essential Workers Surveillance study, otherwise know as AZ HEROES. "Even if you do get it, there will be less of the virus in you and your illness is likely to be much milder."
While the COVID-19 vaccines are proving to be highly effective in preventing COVID-19 infection, no vaccine is 100% effective, and breakthrough infections do occur. Among 3,975 participants in two studies, SARS-CoV-2 infections were identified in five participants who were fully vaccinated and 11 who were partially vaccinated, as well as in 156 unvaccinated participants. Approximately half of the participants were from Arizona study sites.
Researchers found that study participants who were partially or fully vaccinated with the Pfizer and Moderna messenger RNA vaccines at the time of infection had a viral load that was 40% less than that of unvaccinated participants. Viral load – the amount of SARS-CoV-2 virus found in a test sample – is not an indicator of how contagious an individual is, though early COVID-19 research suggests viral load could play a role in disease severity and secondary transmission.
In addition to disease severity, researchers looked at infection longevity. The majority of infections among unvaccinated participants were detected for two or more weeks, compared with only one week among vaccinated participants. That represents a 66% reduction in the risk that a vaccinated person will have a confirmed infection for more than one week.
Additionally, the risk of having COVID-19 with an accompanying fever was 58% lower for vaccinated participants, who reported two fewer days sick in bed, on average, and an overall length of illness that was six days shorter than that of unvaccinated people.
The findings, published June 30 in the New England Journal of Medicine, incorporate data from two ongoing Centers for Disease Control-funded studies: the AZ HEROES study and the Abt Associates-led Research on the Epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 in Essential Response Personnel, or RECOVER, study. Study participants – which included health care personnel, first responders and other essential and frontline workers in eight U.S. locations – continue to undergo weekly nasal swab testing for COVID-19, as well as quarterly blood tests.
Including data from Dec. 14, 2020 to April 10, 2021, researchers found that two doses of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine were 91% effective against infection with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Additionally, the report indicated a single dose of vaccine proved 81% effective against SARS-CoV-2 infection. This is on par with study data published in the CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report on March 29.
"We are still seeing the same high levels of vaccine effectiveness, so we feel good about that," Burgess said. "But more importantly, we've added a number of measures of the severity of infection among individuals who have been vaccinated as a comparison to those who haven't, and we measured how much virus there is and for how long."
In addition to continuing research into COVID-19 immunity and vaccine efficacy, AZ HEROES researchers are beginning to examine the frequency of SARS-CoV-2 variants. The study was originally funded with a $7.7 million CDC grant.

"We recently were awarded another year of funding," said AZ HEROES research team member Karen Lutrick, assistant professor in the Department of Family and Community Medicine at the College of Medicine – Tucson. "We really appreciate the participation of all of our AZ HEROES and RECOVER participants, because without them and their work, we wouldn't have this information to share."
Other members of the AZ HEROES research team include: Dr. Janko Nikolich-Žugich, head of the College of Medicine – Tucson's Department of Immunobiology and co-director of the Center on Aging; and Kate Ellingson, Dr. Joe Gerald and Xiaoxiao Sun in the Zuckerman College of Public Health.
AZ HEROES is still recruiting participants, including health care workers, first responders, and other frontline and essential workers, such as teachers and food service workers, as well as student workers who have not already been vaccinated. Participants both with and without past COVID-19 infection are welcome to join.

Went to lunch today, place was packed, everyone eating normally, nobody dying. There were like 100 people that died yesterday nationwide due to Covid-19, most likely were dying anyway. I love how the left wing media shows the one marathoner that dies from Delta in a month, but never shows the other 99 diabetics that die.
Anyway, fuck off. I am taking my talents to 2+2, that Soviet guy is making thigs happen.
Look life will NEVER return to normal.
There will be another pandemic in the next couple of years worse than covid-19.
So let's lockdown the world again and nail your front door shut. Then send out the national guard and military. Order them to shoot anyone who breaks curfew. Only then can we be safe.
interesting... kamala met with the infected texas dems a few days ago and this morning she went to walter read for a 'scheduled doctors appointment'.

There were 29 deaths today attributed to covid IN THE ENTIRE USA. I wonder what other comorbidities they had and what their ages were. All this false hysteria and control needs to stoppppppppppp.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

I don't know about deaths but here's what my wife is seeing at her hospital.
1. When she got off maturity leave in January, her hospital was completely full of either old or fat people that had Covid.
2. Then, for months, her hospital was down to close to zero covid patients.
3. Now, her hospital is getting a surge of new covid patients. The majority in her hospital are 30-50 years old and unvaccinated. We're talking healthy people, not fat asses. She has a 26 year old on her floor that continues to get worse and she thinks he might die, completely healthy before.
4. She knows 2 pediatricians that say they're seeing alot more kids with covid and they're actually sick this time.
5. My wife voted for Trump twice.
Don't kill the messenger, this is just what they're seeing in her little hospital system of like 18,000 employees.
So I think I have it. I know my body pretty well and I never get sick. However, I have this persistent cough, only while sitting or laying down though. This has been with me for over a week. I still have been running(5k a day/3 days past week) and doing my spin class 2x since the symptoms first appeared with no issues or noticeable breathing difficulties.
Maybe I am being a hypochondriac like our glorious leader here but this all started after I attended an outdoor concert that was frequented by a shit ton of Asians.
