You say there is no commitment, but there is evidence that might not be the case to keep "vaccinated" status. It pretty much once you go to the well, you'll continue to have to do so (was in the Moderna S1, its being vetted). 


You are conflating two separate issues. There are no direct negative effects to allowing the vaccine to wane, so a person can certainly choose to be vaccinated now but decide not to get boosters in the future. The decision to get additional doses are discreet.

 

With regard to being considered fully vaccinated, and whatever restrictions one avoids by being fully vaccinated, we have no idea what that will be. We also have no idea how long vaccination will be needed for societal health. But even that is a bit weak of a point. We know 100% you will be considered not fully vaccinated if you never get vaccinated :p

The antiviral drug could put a dent into the uptake of COVID-19 vaccines, as countries still struggle to reach herd immunity due to vaccine hesitancy among certain segments of the population.

 

Whereas many in America have been hesitant to take vaccines, those same people haven't been as hesitant to take anti-viral drug cocktails from companies like Regeneron. That bodes well for Merck's antiviral pill among those who are unvaccinated and contract the disease.

So weird that people are hesitant to take the vaccines because they are new drugs but aren't hesitant to take the anti-viral treatments which are also new. Cognitive disonance in full display.

Well GEOTUS didn't do a used car ad for the vaccines.

As long as "the libs" don't push it, the yokels won't reflexively refuse to take it. As soon as Biden opens his mouth they will be back to huffing bleach.

Can't help but wonder...if someone hit Commodore with the data the moment they said science and math are on their side and forced them to engage with that instead of assuming good faith and debating them on their own terms, would the seven+ page shitshow have been neutralized a bit sooner? :p

Went out for lunch today and my pokey little town had a anti-mask/anti-vax protest at the main intersection. Probably about 15 or so people and twice as many signs with hard hitting messages like "DO MORE RESEARCH" and "STOP THE CHILD ABUSE."

Story I worked on last night was about Parents and Teachers who are planning on fighting the vaccine mandates in New York and California. Some going so far as to say that they will be pulling their kids out of school once the mandates take effect and teachers who are saying they will "give up their careers" because of the mandates. All I could do while editing the piece as this :|

These teachers don't know or see how good they have it in NY lmao

 

But they're probably eligible for their pension at this point for the most part

I like how all these antivax are dying of "covid pneumonia" like somehow that makes if less DIED OF COVID.

Its a last ditch effort to control the narrative. They have spent the entire pandemic reminding everyone that they have "strong immune system" and only old people and pussys need the vaccine. 

Cowboy Bob didnt shoot himself in the head on accident, he died of sudden exploding brain trauma

The problem is he isn’t really wrong about what decision makes sense for him given risk factors. The end result of his infection was 3 crummy days, which is a reasonable expectation given his individual risk profile.

 

But communicable disease management is about more than individual risk management, and the danger he presented to his community when he was pre-symptomatic either don’t concern him or he doesn’t understand it. Neither are particularly great.
