I do like you as a poster.


100s of millions took the vax, NBD for the overwhelming majority.

Never was a fan of mandatory vax, but there's no question it helped quell an illness that was certainly killing healthy people.

The only people that still bring this up are the soft, easily-manipulated smooth brains.

So your argument is that you are banking on proving a negative....

I can get on board with the overwhelming majority not having issues with the vax, but to say Covid was killing healthy people is just completely false. The virus almost exclusively killed people with multiple co-morbidities unless you are one of those whole think 400lb people can be “healthy”

Didn’t take the vaccine and my employer jacked up my insurance premiums in an attempt to get me to take it.

Where's the blushing emoji? Thank you!

In real time, this appears to be true, I can't argue that.

I fear for my daughter and son in law that took it, just in case. That no doubt biases me.

In my personal experience, which is quite limited... the only person I knew hospitalized with it, because of it- not coincidentally- was younger than me, but God love her, she was/is fairly obese.. not overweight, but Obese. The others I knew, from church, were all quite a bit older with varying age related health conditions.

I am a contrarian by nature, even when it does not suit me well... and the whole covid business turned me off bigly.

Well, now... I don't consider Scott Adams to be in this category... and were I he, I'd have a hard time not lamenting my decision to be vaxxed. He'll never know if that's why he has aggressive cancer and neither will we, and that has to be painful.

I spent my formative years smoking... from 12-42yrs old... if or when I get lung cancer, I'll have to live with the fact I did it to myself. But at least smoking is "bad" and I knew it... I can't imagine the regret that comes with "doing the right thing" and bad outcomes.

Given the typical growth rate of prostate cancer he almost certainly had it before the covid outbreak. That's what they're telling us about Biden.

Laugh if you wannu... Scott Adams isn't laughing, and neither am I.

Again, many modern miracles turned out to be less than miraculous.

For some of my loved ones' sakes, I truly hope this isn't one of them... I don't want to be validated for my suspicions because that validation would mean suffering. I am no sadist.

Daggum... I forgot about that! My husband's employer nearly did the same, thankfully the tides turned. Talk about coercion!

Scott Adam's cancer has nothing to do with the Vax. Are you retarded?

I don't know that it does.

YOU don't know that it doesn't.

The uncertainty is awful.

For the record... my personal thoughts on this isn't that the vax "causes" cancers, but that perhaps it messes with the immune system in such a way to give free reign to those predisposed. Or even less than that... that it may possibly just supercharge an event already in motion.

Maybe I AM retarded... but I am cognizant enough to be aware there are 'unknowns' with this particular preventative platform.

Arguing otherwise just puts you on the short bus with me.

Yeah, I died in the winter of severe illness and death as proclaimed by the White House. Oh woe is me.

How so?

They took no action... not for love of free donuts or societal shaming, not even for job losses.

Insinuating that just about any death can be attributed to the vax for starters

There is 0 evidence that Scott Adams has cancer because he took the vax

It's absurd to imply that there is any correlation

Like you insinuating that "antivaxxers", one and all do this?

quote:

Yes. And just as much evidence that it didn't. Who knows? You don't and neither do I... it takes time to show causation and moreso to disprove the same.

quote:

Hmm.. there's definitely, provably, correlation.

Perhaps you meant to say there's no provable causation.

You can correlate anything, you know this... right? It lends body to the saying "correlation doesn't prove causation".

Or.. maybe I have that backwards... I ain't got no fancy liberal arts degree.

Died from it or with it? They got funds for “with it,” I don’t believe the numbers.

I mean I guess I believed the people I personally knew that died from it and my brother ended up in the ER for a couple days from it. But definitely a hoax and COVID isn’t real tho
Know one person who died from it and my brother (age 59) was in the hospital for 40+ days, 6 of them in ICU from Covid.

A a fat guy whose wife had covid early (she worked in a hospital) I quarantined with her and made every effort to get it.

I also drank as many bottles of red wine as possible that week. Didn't get it.


Her coworker who got it... Her husband died about ten days after she quarantined. He was in pretty good shape, little skinny guy who was a hobby runner.

For the first month or two it seemed absolutely at random who felt any ill effects.

Three years later when I did get covid... It wasn't even as bad as a mild cold.

Insurance still pays out 5k if I get it, I've been trying for two years.

Just a bizarre thing.

Reaction to the whole virus vs a response to a single protein.

How tf could the reaction to single protein be better?
