I do not agree.

Have you received vaccinations in the past? Why did you accept them. There was risk in ever vaccination anyone has ever received.

Nearly ALL of us have received vaccinations in the past....you already know this...so why feign ignorance by posing this as a question? Yes, there ARE risks with all vaccines...but, the SHOTS the government is trying to push on us aren't vaccines at all. There is no accountability for the Big Pharma companies or the government concerning these alleged vaccines. The companies are shielded, and so if the government. That's an indicator of something nefarious being implemented against the people who get the jab!

Oh, no. You would be a monkey's aunt? LOL {Just a small joke I could not resist.}

Maybe you'd like to borrow one of his skirts! LOL Just a small joke back!

 

Just an addendum for Razor....If the miitary system you posted is so great, and the shots are such a great thing, why are so many servicemen and women choosing against taking the jab? Something to consider.

You are wrong about the vaccines.

On why servicemen and women have refused vaccines. Because through misinformation they have bought into the false information promoted by websites that for whatever reason, usually political, have posted false information. 

Antivaxxers are nothing new. There have been such folk since Edward Jenner began vaccinations for smallpox. They were wrong then. They are wrong now. But many people are fooled and that is quite sad.

Again...nothing more than your OPINION as fact...UGH!  You've YET TO PROVE that any of us are wrong on the SHOTS...they're NOT vaccines. Gene therapy is NOT vaccination...it's MANIPULATION...don't be so naive!

Sorry, but I disagree. Regardless, let's drop the issue.

Mr. Biden finally admits that there IS NO FEDERAL SOLUTION to the Coronavirus problem, that it has to be handled by the states!

Apparently, Biden has cut off all monoclonal antibodies to Florida and Texas as punishment.

He's a loser as POTUS. His agenda is well known. I'll be happy when he's out of office.

Omicron cannot escape T cells; boosters protect households from Omnicrom.

https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/omicron-cannot-escape-t-cells-boosters-protect-households-omicron-2021-12-29/

Dec 29 (Reuters) - The following is a summary of some recent studies on COVID-19. They include research that warrants further study to corroborate the findings and that has yet to be certified by peer review.

Omicron cannot escape body's second-line defense

A key part of the immune system's second-line defense - its T cells - are highly effective at recognizing and attacking the Omicron variant, thereby preventing most infections from progressing to critical illness, a new study shows.

Omicron's mutations help it escape from antibodies, the body's first line of defense against infection. Researchers have speculated that other components of the immune response would still target Omicron, but there has been no proof until now.

In test tube experiments, researchers in South Africa exposed copies of the virus to T cells from volunteers who had received vaccines from Johnson & Johnson (JNJ.N) or Pfizer(PFE.N)/BioNTech(22UAy.DE) or who had not been vaccinated but had developed their own T cells after infection with an earlier version of the coronavirus.

"Despite Omicron's extensive mutations and reduced susceptibility to neutralizing antibodies, the majority of T cell response, induced by vaccination or natural infection, cross-recognizes the variant," the researchers reported on Tuesday on medRxiv ahead of peer review.

"Well-preserved T cell immunity to Omicron is likely to contribute to protection from severe COVID-19," which supports what South African doctors had initially suspected when most patients with Omicron infections did not become seriously ill, they said.

The "T" stands for thymus, the organ in which the cells' final stage of development occurs.

Anything to push your pro-vax agenda...right, razor? Are you sure you don't work for the "gubbmit?"  LOL

Ugh...what's with Christians quoting Reuters as some trustworthy source? 

The Chairman of Reuters is also on the board of Pfizer.

At home COVID rapid tests.

At-home rapid tests have proven to be a powerful weapon in the country's battle against the coronavirus and its latest variants, but the surge of the omicron variant has left U.S. consumers to contend with concerns about access, efficacy and rising costs among the numerous options on the market.

Health experts say rapid tests remain a useful tool as the country braces for the latest surge in cases, as long as they can be obtained and are considered in the right context. The tests sacrifice some accuracy for speedy results, but they can be an aid for making decisions and knowing when to get additional treatment.

The most accurate tests available are polymerase chain reaction tests, or PCR tests, which detect tiny snippets of the virus’s genetic material. Because the tests require specialized lab equipment, people can wait for days to get their results — particularly when there are surges, demand grows and logjams are created.

Rapid tests, on the other hand, detect molecules that are found on the virus’s surface, called antigens. They’re not as accurate, but they can be run at home and provide results in as little as 15 minutes.

Covid tests (at home and at clinic) are wrong anywhere from 34 to 68  percent of the time!

There are still some true doctors in private practices not owned by the corporate medical community whom folks should seek out for help. If you can't find any like this in your area then I recommend folks contact these Frontline doctors in the future, that is what we do now and these are real doctors whom refuse "to do harm" or "experiment on patients without their fully informed consent". They left the corrupted, corporate medical community because they will not allow their hippocratic oath to be held hostage over money.

Frontline Doctors

Why would "fact-check" call something the POTUS said "Mostly untrue" when it was TOTALLY untrue? Proof that Politifact is nothing more than a left wing hack!

Biden says that people who have had THE SHOT cannot pass the virus along to other people....FALSE! Not "mostly false!" Sad that the media can't be honest, and neither can our President!

First Omicron Death in the US

The man, who was in his 50s and lived in Harris County, Texas, was unvaccinated and had previously been infected with COVID-19. He recently contracted the virus again, and it was confirmed as the Omicron variant.

Harris County health officials also said he faced a higher risk for severe complications because of underlying health conditions and being unvaccinated.
