As respectfully as possible, I disagree. I just posted a respectful response, pointing out the flaws in your argument. Yet, you had already refused to engage with me, because I offered arguments you couldn't counter. I also pointed out your hypocrisy in regards to your whole "respectful" schtick.
And you have mentioned several times you are anti-vivisection, which was your original reason for not getting vaccinated. It's pretty funny if you think about it. I'm assuming that's also the reason behind the vegan diet? I'm fully supportive of a person's dietary choices and a vegan diet is certainly healthier than my diet. But I always get a good laugh when someone states their choice is because of an unwillingness to participate in the slaughter of "sentient beings. "
I acknowledge, that if I want a nice, thicky juicy stake, cooked rare (just cook it until it stops mooing), some steer is going to have to give its life in order for my horseradish to have something to go on. However, no matter what diet I choose, I'm requiring the slaughter of "sentient beings" along with the destruction of their habitat. It's hard to grow lentils without first clear cutting a forest and burning out what remains.
Every action, every day, to support human life requires non-human life to suffer on a scale which is beyond your imagination. I accept that, because as liberal as I am, or as liberal as I'm accused of being, I prefer sex with humans over sex with animals. Although I admit, I've never given the sheep a chance to prove themselves.
You remind me of a protest I saw outside of a Furrier long ago. All those people with their BMWs waving signs and then climbing back into that nice leather interior.

Let's clear it up. Simple as can be. Name a city in the continental US, only requirement is that the city has at least 2 practicing psychologists. Pick a date. I can do December 6, 13, or 20. I'll choose a psychologist qualified to perform aptitude testing. I'll set 2 appointments. I'll pay in advance for both appointments. We'll both complete the same battery of tests. Takes about an hour. We'll get the results. We'll post the results right here. Low score pays high score $5,000.
You even get the better deal. You can pick a location convenient to you and you don't have to pay for your test. Tell me. What are you afraid of? You keep running away. Every time I offer to test one of your claims, you take off like a scared little bunny and hide in a hole for a few days. Every single time! Come on out and prove yourself.
And why do you always run from my rebuttal? Why not respond to the questions? Here, I'll even make that simple for you, you can even ask a real doctor to help with the answers:
1. If a person is experiencing fever, shortness of breath and a persistent dry cough, should they get a Covid test?
2. If a person has heart palpitations, dizziness and weakness, with a history of atrial fibrillation, without fever, cough, shortness of breath or loss of sense of taste or smell, should they get a Covid test?
Now your original answer was that I was stupid for getting a Covid test for the first scenario and that I was stupid for not getting a Covid test for the second scenario. Do you wish to change your answers, or are you going to pick a city and date so we can get a definitive answer on our comparative intelligence? Or is it going to be scared bunny again? (Spoiler alert. It's going to be scared bunny all the way).
While we're on the subject. You claimed I was spreading Covid throughout Colombia (technically you claimed the entire continent, but I understand your need for hyperbole). However another board member, a person who gives frequent tours in Bogota claims he has had Covid 5 times, giving tours, visiting clubs. A different BM said he had Covid, continued to see girls and got a Certificate of Recovery via a video visit well before completing quarantine. A third BM was positive for Covid and asked for opinions about whether or not he should isolate. All things publicly posted here.
4 people positive for Covid. Only 1 of the 4 immediately went into quarantine upon learning, informed his personal contacts and posted here for anyone who he forgot to inform. 2 others continued business as usual and the last one, if I remember correctly, only took a day or two out of commission. Yet the only one you commented on, the only one you accused of starting a new wave of infections (while also claiming a significant drop in new infections), was the one person who took action to prevent infecting others. Care to explain the discrepancy?
I know the answer. You also know the answer, but only one of us is able to get you the treatment you need.
And let's not forget your own claim of being exposed "hundreds of times. " You forgot to mention how, after each exposure, you isolated for 5-7 days and then got tested to confirm you weren't infected (just did the math, if we're being held to the same standards you've had to isolate for a minimum of just under 3 years over the past 20 months). Or was that just more of your silliness? You can't hold 1 person to a standard while not holding yourself and others to the same standard.
Does December 13 in Dallas work for you? Let's solve this.
Almost forgot. What you said is that I would die from a stroke in the next 5 years. Are you suggesting I'm posting from some afterlife? Did you just call me your Messiah? I think you did!
Don't forget, I also offered you a bet on that one. Let's make it $1 million. Have your lawyer draw it up. I'll get a $1 million life insurance policy with a 5 year term (5 years from July 2021, because I expect you'll still be making that prediction without accepting a wager long after 5 years have passed). Contestability period is 2 years. If I die of stroke or cerebral hemorrhage, you're the beneficiary. If I die of other causes, or survive your escrow of $100,000 comes to me (or my estate). Where else are you going to get 10-1 odds? (Scared bunny mode engaged).

I am not anti-vax. I am anti- unnessary and not very good vax. And also anti-vivisection. But you just lump everyone in to the same bucket to make your life easier to attack.
I said nothing about immigration rights, so that's another bullshlt story. Well done, keep it up.

Here's a pro-tip:
If you want to discuss a subject, any subject, discuss it. If you're not interested in hearing anything anyone else has to say on the subject, don't discuss it.
It's like your religious beliefs. If you just want a bunch of people to tell you how wonderful they are, go chat with the people at your favorite religious institution. If you want to insist your beliefs are the only ones, go fuck yourself with a rusty cattle prod. There's a third option, but people with strongly held religious beliefs are seldom interested in hearing questions which contradict their dogma. I've noticed it's the same with anti-vaxxers and people who insist on rights which they don't have.
There's much worthy of discussion regarding Covid and vaccines, but only one side wants to have a discussion. The other side has spent the last 20 months insisting:
1. Covid is a hoax.
2. Covid isn't as bad as the flu.
3. Covid is no worse than the flu.
4. Covid is the flu, just a worse type of the flu.
5. Covid is a weapon created by China.
6. Covid is a weapon China created for the US.
7. Covid is just a trick to bring about a "new world order."
8. Vaccines don't work.
9. Vaccines are a trick to inject us with microchips to control us.
10. Vaccines are killing more people than Covid.
And that's without getting into the really wacky shit.
So, if you don't want to have a discussion, there's no need to tell us you don't want to have a discussion. If you just want to throw insults, then jump right in.
And as a side note, you did notice MrE's discovery that:
A. You are subject to have your phone searched in Colombia.
Be. If you refuse they can detain you while the police break into your phone and search it.
I believe you stated otherwise? As I said, you're probably familiar with not being good at all this discussion stuff.

And what did your doctors put down for a final diagnosis, "I don't know"? I heard insurance companies pay out real well for that diagnosis.

Posts: 5430A serious question
For everyone out there who feels that acquired immunity from infection with Covid is superior to getting vaccinated, I have a question.
Why haven't you made an effort to get infected?
At this point roughly 1 in 30 of the population, or more has had Covid. Surely we're all smart enough to figure out how to find an infected, contagious person and spend some time in close proximity to them. The ratio of the population that sells marijuana is much lower and I'm sure none of us would have difficulty finding someone who sells it.
So, what is your reason for not being proactive towards acquiring some natural immunity? Wouldn't it be better to get some immunity before a really bad variant pops up?

The reason is that Sunday at midnight there is no new data so every weekend is a 3 day weekend so to speak. The rate will change Monday and midnight for Tuesday.
