Not vaccinated are now about 10% of adults.  Of 60 hospitalizations/100,000 ... 57 non vaccinated and 3 vaccinated.  Considering the total amount of persons in each group, why would any adult (with common sense)  avoid getting vaccinated?  

Are these antivaxxer maskchinians just dumber than hammers?

Any truth to an article that says Aaron Rodgers is unvaccinated? Well, he tested positive.


Don’t think it’s definitive yet but it’s starting to look like he lied about his status in pre-season. When he was asked “are you vaccinated?” he replied “yes, I’m immunized.”

Did the team know AR wasn’t vaccinated?

The reports vary. Some say the league has been treating him as unvaccinated since the start of the year while others say he had a fake vaccination card. Those are from Reddit though so you have to treat comments with many, many grains of salt. Any way you slice it the NFL and the team are going to look real bad if this turns out to be true.

Is AR a weirdo?  Strange he asked for that.

Getting sick and tired of the price gouging going on.  No idea why Trudeau doesn't do anything about it.

 

Thanks in part (maybe?) to idiots thinking ivermectin can be used instead of vaccines against Covid, the price has sky rocketed.

 

2 years ago, we bought a jug for $115.  Now, a jug is $152.  Oh, to make matters worse, the jug went from 5 liters in size to 4 liters!

 

$23 a liter 2 years ago to $38 a liter today!  

 

The got my 

 

 

hey man, this is your people causing the issue. Free market horsey drugs are going to cost you.

went for the regular flu shot today. No line ups, nice friendly pharmacist. Not sure if it was the Bill Gates formula.

My school district was offering flu shots last week in various spots.  Decided to go after school on Friday.  Signed in at 305, signed out at 307.

after all the anxiety over the covid shots, it was kind of a let down. No lollipop or anything.

Just wondering:   If a government, entity, employer is mandating a vaccine, can someone sue/claim for damages or lost wages if they're injured in some way by the vaccine?  We know that 99.99% of people really have no issues....but there are the vary rare cases of paralysis, stroke, or heart attack soon after the vaccine.  I'm just curious if there is legal ground for recovering lost wages.

I think that the legal recourse would have to go through the Vaccine Injury Support Program.  Anti-vaxxers seem to think that this program is a reason for not taking vaccines because you can't sue the vaccine manufacturers.  

https://vaccineinjurysupport.ca/en

 

The purpose

The purpose of the VISP is to ensure that all people in Canada who have experienced a serious and permanent injury as a result of receiving a Health Canada authorized vaccine, administered in Canada on or after December 8, 2020, have fair and timely access to financial support.

The pan-Canadian VISP will serve all people vaccinated in Canada, with the exception of people vaccinated in Québec who will receive coverage from the longstanding Québec program.
