    It's almost unimaginable that this is what it takes to get people to finally change their minds about vaccines.

    Unvaccinated Man Relearning to Walk After COVID Complications, Urges Others Get Shot


    A former University of Alabama football player who experienced nerve damage because of COVID-19 is now having to relearn how to walk, stand up and use his right arm.

    Justin Moon, 36, wasn't vaccinated against COVID-19 when he contracted the virus over the summer and had to be hospitalized. Until then a generally healthy person, he spent 39 days on a ventilator and while he recovered from the virus, he now faces a long road to recovery and is encouraging others to get vaccinated to prevent others from going through the same experiences.

    Unfortunately it doesn't get other people to change their minds! He can urge others to get the shot all he wants but very few will even listen to him. How many people have already gotten sick, recovered and then recommended the vaccine? And yet the unvaccinated refuse to budge!

    True. In their minds folks who didn't have the shot, got sick and are now urging others to get the shot are lying, part of a vast "Democrat" conspiracy. No matter what logical deduction there is, there's always a way to twist it to fit these numbskulls' narrative they feel compelled to believe.
    I had a professor, a fucking professor, put up a link that claimed that those who got the COVID 19 shot were actually more likely to get COVID 19.
    He also urged Black Lives Matter to go back to Africa.

    He started waxing wacky only after he retired, so there's that.

    Keep in mind this individual believes clean living alone will thwart COVID 19.

    You're actually not all that far off.

    The great influenza pandemic of 1918 can be molecularly traced back (at least in part) to the great equine influenza of 1872

    It's Coming': NY Declares State of Emergency Ahead of Potential Omicron Spike

    New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has declared a state of emergency ahead of potential COVID-19 spikes this winter due to the already-circulating Delta and newly-identified Omicron variants of coronavirus.

    The declaration, which goes into effect on Dec. 3, will allow the state to acquire pandemic-fighting supplies, increase hospital capacity and fight potential staffing shortages. It would also allow the state Health Department to limit non-essential and non-urgent procedures at hospitals.

    We continue to see warning signs of spikes this upcoming winter, and while the new Omicron variant has yet to be detected in New York State, it's coming," Hochul said.

    The move comes hours after the governor said her office was closely monitoring the new variant, which was first sequenced in South Africa earlier this week.

    The variant contains around 50 concerning mutations from the original SARS CoV-2 virus that appeared in China in 2019, including more than 10 to the spike protein that allows the virus to access human cells.

    I'm glad we have a governor who's not an idiot.

    I actually thought of a pretty good comeback but now that Gov. Andrew Cuomo is no longer in charge - I'm not going to go there.

    A doctor posted this chest x-ray of a college student he's treating for covid-19.

    The student was un-vaxxed because he thought he was invincible like most guys in their late teens early 20s - he was wrong - his lungs are a disaster area.
