  1. Covid is contagious whether your vaccinated of not.
  2. Because I'm not wrong. I always agreed unvaxxed are presently using more than their quota of healthcare. The problem is you won't agree that the obese are as well.
  3. Last I checked it wasn't 4x, or 3x, or 2x, (my definition of grossly) but it was 70% or so. I'm wondering if this changes with Omicron. I thought it would but it seems like it's not. Good.
  4. Wow. No protection from contracting the disease at all at this point. Have to watch the hospitalizations now.
  5. Good to see you know when you're caught. I was getting worried.
  6. When did you get your booster shot?
  7. That seems high, numbers I've seen are 69% overweight 36.5% obese. https://www.healthline.com/health/obesity-facts#1.-More-than-one-third-of-adults-in-the-United-States-are-obese. 67% of people in ICU and hospital are obese, while only comprising 36.5% of the population. Obesity is where the risk factors really accelerate as opposed to being just overweight. Only 27% are under 50 years old. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7010e4.htm#T1_down
  8. So 78% of covid hospitalizations are there because they're overweight. This isn't my opinion, it's fact according to these sources. You call facts "dumb". This leaves only 22% of hospitalizations for immunocompromised and the aged. Wow. If people would just stop overeating this healthcare crisis would disappear, wouldn't it? Lower hospital admissions and less transmission would result. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/08/covid-cdc-study-finds-roughly-78percent-of-people-hospitalized-were-overweight-or-obese.html https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/946599 superspreaders
  9. Not concerned about what you two...............think. But I'll give you a chance coho. Go ahead and explain to me what is so "dumb" about it. Spur .......don't even bother.
  10. I don't know what whataboutism is, or strawmen. Being overweight is a choice. Not taking the covax is a choice. Both choices lead to more hospitalization. Overweight are that way because they're UNCONCERNED for their health (we gotta go sometime). Unvaccinated are that way because they are CONCERNED about their health, long term. (not because they're afraid of microchips and slavery) As I've said ad nauseam, being unvaccinated for covid is the right choice for young, healthy people, imo. I'm in favor of not discriminating against either group for healthcare. It's been proven here, and we've known all along, that vaccinated people catch and spread the virus just like the unvaccinated, so that's no reason to tax one or the other. Overweight people shed more virus and spread the virus more according to my previous attachments, but again, I personally do not hold this against them. It's a free country, or it should be.
  11. Does lack of confidence cause you to not be able to stand up? It seems he doesn't have the physical ability to be a player in the league, as I think you said before.
  12. I've never seen a drop like this either, but I don't think it's lack of desire.
  13. Can't answer what? I would, of course, never approve of a tax on the obese. But I'd certainly be less inclined to tax unvaccinated. Moving on.
  14. If Pete played the way we want him to play, sadly, I think he'd get hurt immediately. He plays the way he does because he knows it.
  15. Even the non sequitur fails. https://covid-19.ontario.ca/data Exhaled aerosol increases with COVID-19 infection, age, and obesity https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/946599 Older, Heavier People May Be 'Superspreaders' of COVID-19 I accept extra charges for the unvaxxed the day it's coupled with extra charges for the biggest strain on our health resources, the obese.
  16. He is right, probably. He's also not selfish. Everyone gets and spreads the virus. If he was at risk by being old, overweight or infirm, not so much.
