And it killed them. While the vaccine offers good protection from infection, it offers very good protection against severe illness and death. Unvaccinated people are dying at much higher rares than vaccinated people.
No. Just get people vaccinated, and save lives.
That was settled about 125 years ago. Supreme Court upheld the right of states to impose vaccine mandates.
It's happened hundreds of thousands of times in America. The unvaccinated are dying at rates about ten times that of vaccinated people. And they are infecting others, including those who are medically unable to be vaccinated.
That's wrong. This isn't a cultural or P.R. issue. It's a medical issue.
(defensive argument that vaccines don't offer perfect protection)
Not everyone wearing a seat belt survives an auto crash. Who would be dumb enough to use that as an excuse for not wearing one?
I showed you the ratios. I'm just pointing out that it's dumb to take risks you don't have to take, even if you can't get perfect safety.
To anyone who rationally considers the issue, it does.
Millions of unvaccinated people dying when there's no need. It's not just those who died, it's families who loved them, children who needed parents they won't have, all because those people listened to false stories about vaccinations.
As you see, it's bad science. They should have made sure the two sets of data were accurate. In other studies, where they compared equivalent data sets, no one got those results. So it's pretty clear that they never checked the quality of the baseline data they used.
Taking risks you don't have to take can only be described as not very smart.
The ICUs are full of people who made incorrect decisions. Bottom line? Over 900,000 Americans have "moved on" from COVID-19. More will do so, because they foolishly believe the stories being peddled on social media, and neglect to become vaccinated.
So, we need to turn the whole world upset down

I believe in being vaccinated, but I don't believe in forcing people to do it - nor mandates.

I don't see how your awful experience is any different than others.

Remember our political culture - enforced by the media - created this atmosphere.

So, you admit that vaccinated people died too and get defensive.

Does that do anything to help your cause?
To anyone who rationally considers the issue, it does.
What you afraid of?

The report is science too

Calling people dumb?

and it may show you that all our decisions towards this awful virus were NOT the correct.
