I hope you had a reputable doctor interpret those studies for you in person. I read on CNN.com that it can be dangerous to do online research and think for yourself. I’m not sure if I should believe it though, since a reputable medical professional didn’t read it to me in person. In fact, even reading your comment, I’m not at liberty to reply, since a reputable medical professional didn’t read it to me, and I can’t be sure just what to think without a reputable medical professional telling me, in person, what I should think.

Is that statement provably true for the previously infected?

(Hint: it would be more dangerous to get a shot if you’ve already had it than to not, but it won’t make Fauxi & friends any money if you don’t. Gee, I wonder why they don’t advertise that.)

Guess I'll just get off of my high horse and make sure big Pharma gets paid by the taxpayer for something that not only do I not need, but would weaken the immunity that I have.

The state of the world is obvious from the activity on this forum. If these are supposed to be "intelligent hackers" here, god help the human race.

I've already done my part by contracting and beating the virus you're deathly afraid of. I have more powerful immunity than anyone who's taken any of those shots. I don't have to ponder about the numbers on that one.

Apparently writing one sentence is now "going on and on".

It's not mental gymnastics to point out the information overload on one side of this issue, which makes absolutely no medical or scientific sense, yet makes a ton of profit "cents".

It would be interesting to see the numbers on being overweight vs vaccinated, and seeing which is more correlated with covid severity.

They don't have a second amendment in Portugal. Do you ever wonder why the political culture of my country is so dominant over yours? Or has it always been obvious to you that defending liberty is inherently more powerful than bowing to tyranny? Or do you chock it up to superior geography alone?

Patriot Act is unconstitutional. You think I watch Faux News?

By the way, the first article on your site has nothing to do with the title. You don't even mention lossless audio format in the entire body, just pure UX gripes with the app (design and bugs).

You must be real smart though. Have you thought about applying to work at the White House?

"Common sense" isn't that common. Do you also acknowledge the perverse incentives of government bureaucrats to promote their story?

I'm not sure how those things discredit the janitor.

Are you as critical of the politicians, who have built their livelihoods off of going around speaking to corporate interests?

What about the government officials who put out the 9/11 commission report, and were paid for it. Are they similarly implicated by the act of self promotion? Or does that distinction only apply to the janitors of the world?

You haven't seen how the moral imperative to stop the spread of that disease has been exaggerated well beyond practicality, and used to remove citizens' ability to consent to extremely profitable, taxpayer-funded medical experiments?

It's a pretty direct line from what you're saying, (a moral imperative to "be careful") to what governments around the world have been trampling over people rights in order to do, which is lock down society, don't leave your house, take the experimental shot under coercion, etc.

And the argument that destroys that propaganda is that it's prioritized not because it's effective in a utilitarian sense in saving lives, but because it's very effective in giving certain people a lot more power, at a great expense to the freedoms of other people.

Maybe you weren't trying to say that, but that's the reality of public discourse on this topic. The moral imperative your are advocating for has been unilaterally adopted by tyrants.

You should take responsibility for advocating a position that in effect removes people's rights. You won't do that, because you'll run from every confrontation that would show you this truth.

Really cool resource. Small nit: the time in the upper right hand corner being off by an hour is killing me (not literally).

So you're not winning the argument to take away my medical freedom, so now you want to tell me how I'm supposed to post on here? Addicted to tyranny much?

So the reports of "triage" problems and overwhelmed ICU units is a fabricated issue?

Do heart disease and cancer exacerbate covid conditions, putting more people in icu (and for longer) than if they didn't have those comorbidities?

So heart disease and cancer don't take up ICU beds?
