Posts: 5482I spoke too soon
One thing I've always believed in is honesty. If I'm wrong, I admit it. It just seems much easier than constantly having to venture off through the looking glass, searching for some fantasy which keeps me from admitting my errors.

About 8 or 9 years ago I suffered a fainting spell. It happened after some strenuous sex with a girl I had just met. Like last night, I had awakened and headed to the bathroom. I ended up crawling back to bed where the girl, a registered nurse checked me out. A few hours later I felt fine. Over the years I've had 5 or 6 similar events. My most famous happened on the Medellin metro. It's been a few years since the last occurrence.
This morning it happened again. Mostly I finished my business before I went down, tearing the towel bar off the wall. Fortunately, I ended up sitting against the wall, rather than face down in the toilet. It took about 15 minutes before I could make it back to bed. A few hours later and I feel back to normal.
The headache and nausea are gone and the pain in my arm is fading. I don't know for certain that the fainting has any connection with the vaccine, but it's a possibility, so it's only fair to report it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LifeSiteNews
So basically we have an article written by a bunch of know conspiracy theorist crackpots. Where were the rest of the sources? There were none.

These articles generally opine that Peter Doshi isn't all that good at analytics. Which of course would make him a real fan favorite of Elvis.

Rogan was criticized by White House chief medical advisor Anthony Fauci, who accused him of making misleading comments regarding the COVID-19 vaccines. Subsequently, Rogan backed down his statement, acknowledging that Fauci's opinion was founded on science, and calling himself a "moron" and "not a respected source of information".

Now with those splendid qualifications outlining his creditability, I can understand why Elvis would be eager to have Joe's podcasts open to the world.
If we are going to talk about science then let's stop trying to support our crackpot theories with blogs, and UFC color commentator analysis. Hey Elvis, how about using some of the real sources? You know. The kind that actually use science to support their conclusions.

Posts: 5482The Horrible vaccine side effects
I saw someone claimed not long ago that the Covid vaccines have horrible side effects. I am here to tell you that is 100% correct.
However, "horrible" is a subjective description which is useless when discussing side effects. For example, someone who stubs their toe might say it was horrible, the worst pain they've ever felt. In reality it's almost always minor and quickly forgotten.
That's a good description of the horrible Covid vaccine side effects, minor and quickly forgotten. Perhaps a more detailed description will help.
About 6 hours ago I received a booster dose (3rd) of the Pfizer vaccine. My first dose, in early March, left my arm sore for about 14 hours. It was so incredibly sore that I slept 4 hours and then worked for 10 hours and didn't really notice when the pain faded. The second dose was about the same with the addition of I felt like I might be getting a cold for about 12 hours.
Here are the horrible side effects I've experienced so far with dose 3:
1. About 5 minutes after injection I felt slightly queasy for about 30 seconds.
2. 1 hour after I noticed a slight headache and a bit of pain in my neck. Although I had spent most of the time in a traffic jam, so it could have been a coincidence.
3. About 3 hours in I began to notice a pain in my arm. At 6 hours the pain is so had that I'm unable to play the violin. That may be influenced by my lack of a violin and the fact I've never tried to play a violin. The good news is that it doesn't seem to affect my ability to play my Colombian tiple, or my guitar.
4. 5 hours and I've definitely got a headache. It's possible I might decide to pop a couple of Tylenol in a few hours.
As you can see the side effects are almost unbearable.

How do you explain 2 separate cases of Covid in less than a month when recovery from Covid takes about 1 month?

1. The poliomyelitis virus has not been wiped out, it's still alive and well. However, thanks to the efforts of people who chose human life over stupidity, polio cases have been eliminated everywhere except Afghanistan and Pakistan. However, polio vaccination rates are dropping, mostly due to the efforts of idiots like you. It's quite likely new cases, in countries previously free of polio, will soon occur.
2. Your claim is bullshit, which is standard for you. Polio cases, since you brought it up have been eliminated everywhere except Afghanistan and Pakistan, because nearly 100% of the population has been vaccinated against Polio. If we stopped vaccinating against Polio, we would start seeing cases again within just a few years.
Roughly 1 year ago almost nobody anywhere in the world had access to any Covid vaccines. If you prefer polio, prior to 1954 nobody in the world had access to the polio vaccine. It took more than 40 years for many countries to begin administering the vaccine. Let's use your bullshit rationalization with polio. According to you, since most of the world didn't have access to the polio vaccine, nobody in the world should have been vaccinated against polio. And how effective would the polio vaccine have been if nobody received it?
Currently, over 46% of the world has been fully vaccinated against Covid. That's in about 1 year, an incredible accomplishment. Another year and worldwide vaccination rate could easily exceed 90%, if not for the pandemic of idiocy which is trying to stop vaccination.
For comparison, the Salk polio vaccine began widespread testing in 1955, in the US. In 1953 there were 58,000 polio cases in the US. By 1961 the number of cases had dropped to 161 in the US.
To address some of your other psychotic trash, the standard polio vaccination schedule consists of 4 doses, although some countries administer a 5th dose during adolescence. Yet you have complained because the current recommendation for Covid vaccines is 3 doses, which may eventually be increased to 4.
As for the low vaccination rates in third world countries, I'll use an analogy.
Every time you fly the flight crew gives a brief safety lecture. In the event of a loss of cabin pressure, oxygen masks drop from the overhead. How do they tell you to use the masks? First you put on your mask, then you help others.
The reason for that is if you put the mask on your 3 year old first, then pass out from lack of oxygen, your 3 year old probably can't get the mask on you, and might take the mask off, so both of you die. Although, in your case, most 3 year olds are smarter and more capable and your body dying from lack of oxygen just puts it in the same condition as your brain.
The vaccines work the same way. The countries which have the resources to develop and produce vaccines need to take care of themselves first. If they have to stop production because too many people are sick, then who is going to produce and distribute the vaccines? Is South Sudan capable of producing and distributing 100 million doses per day?
It's pretty funny how you constantly strive to be exceed your previous stupidity. I can't wait for the next installment.

The original purpose of the virus was not to eliminate the virus. That makes as much sense as chugging tequila to get sober. Perhaps you meant the original purpose of the vaccine was to eliminate the virus, which illustrates your complete lack of understanding.
I'll cover this again for the people who only eat vegetables because they don't want to eat anything which is smarter than them. There has never been a vaccine, nor will there ever be, with the purpose of eliminating a virus. Even my sister's dog understands that and he's been dead for 2 years. The purpose of any vaccine is to provide a level of protection from the virus.
If you think about it, which is about as likely as me climbing Mt. Everest naked, it's easy to understand. Vaccines don't kill viruses. They stimulate a response in the immune system. If you want to eliminate the virus, just take everyone who becomes infected and pump them full of disinfectant. It would be 100% fatal and a horrible way to die, but it's the only way you can hope to eliminate the virus.
As you noted, but failed to understand, the vaccine has shown it's very effective at reducing the severity and the number of deaths from Covid, which for anyone who isn't allergic to honesty, is precisely what any vaccine is supposed to do. Since you want to fixate on South Korea, over 90% of adults are vaccinated, but 75.6% of the deaths are unvaccinated. The fatality rate prior to vaccination was 2. 4%, it's now 0. 8%. Really, picking South Korea as an example of vaccination failure, is like picking lions as examples of successful vegans. Let me explain those numbers for you.
If 1,000 South Koreans become infected with Covid, 100 of the infected are unvaccinated, 900 are vaccinated. Out of the 1,000, there will be 8 deaths. Of those 8 deaths, 6 will be unvaccinated. That makes the unvaccinated fatality rate 6%. Meanwhile, the fatality rate for the vaccinated is 0. 22%. To simplify it further that means an unvaccinated South Korean who becomes infected with Covid is 27 times more likely to die than a vaccinated, infected South Korean.
It's really a simple choice. Would you rather have an illness that makes you feel poorly for a few days, or would you rather have an illness which hospitalizes you for 4 months, much of the time intubated, before it eventually kills you?
