COVID Stupid

“Real America’s Voice”??? What is ”real” America? Based on their Twitter feed, “real” America loves lip injections and worshipping Donald Trump and hates all liberals (aka socialists) and immigrants.

Listened to a podcast recently that explained the "real Americans" being people in rural areas campaign started in the 50’s to counter the more liberal, socialist, and communist ideas that tend to gain popularity in coastal cities. People in rural ares tend to take more comfort in the status quo, are change adverse, and are more like, well, sheep politically. Their concept of free thinking actually bolsters the status quo of the right. Freedom to them means freedom from having to change.

In my opinion, this leads to a stagnant society. Do you know who else didn’t embrace change? Every fallen empire of the past.
 
Yes, vaccine mandates can work

Warriors wing Andrew Wiggins has received the COVID-19 vaccine, coach Steve Kerr told reporters Sunday.

Wiggins's vaccination status had been a focal point in recent weeks as San Francisco is one of two local jurisdictions in NBA markets that is requiring people to be fully vaccinated to be allowed indoors for entertainment.

As a result, Wiggins would not have been eligible to play in home games for the Warriors had he not been vaccinated.

Wiggins was asked to clarify his vaccination status last Monday during Media Day but declined, saying, "it's none of your business."

On Wednesday, NBA spokesperson Mike Bass said that players who do not comply with local vaccination requirements will not be paid for the games that they miss due to their status. Wiggins would have been subject to such a policy.

In March, Wiggins said publicly he would not be getting the vaccine.

"To each his own, really. Whoever wants to get it, can get it; whoever doesn't want to get it, don't get it," Wiggins said. "Right now, I'm not getting it, but it's no knock on anyone else that's getting it. I make my own decisions. But right now, I decided not to get it.

"I'm just going to keep fighting for what I believe and for what I believe is right. What's right to one person, isn't right to the other and vice versa."

When push comes to shove for many this sudden concern for personal liberties when it comes to vaccines that they didn't have before, tends to disappear when their check is affected. Yes it's a personal choice to get or NOT get the vaccine. It's no longer a personal choice if you interact with others who may not have your lack of concern about catching Covid. It's one thing if your job is to play basketball alone in your house on your gaming system. It's another thing when you are on a court with others breathing & sweating on them possibly endangering OTHERS health. As well as possibly risking the team's finances in missed games or worse.

As I posted earlier, we are getting to this point with those concerned with feelings over...

I was browsing through the biography section of the local Sunday paper and saw one that said the woman had succumbed to "vaccine induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia". Each of those four words means an actual meaning. Assembled in that construction, they mean "self-proctology".

What?
I looked it up:
www.acc.org

Vaccine-induced Thrombotic Thrombocytopenia (VITT) and COVID-19 Vaccines: What Cardiovascular Clinicians Need to Know - American College of Cardiology

www.acc.org www.acc.org
VITT is characterized by the presence of two conditions concurrently: thrombosis (often in unusual sites like the cerebral veins or splanchnic veins) thrombocytopenia. Early mechanistic evaluations have identified antibodies directed against the platelet factor 4 (PF4)-heparin complex which activate platelets, similar to HIT antibodies. Detection of the PF4 antibodies can be done using a HIT ELISA test, but not reliably with other HIT laboratory tests.

The incidence of VITT is not certain, but it appears to be extremely rare.


Thrombosis- Thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood through the circulatory system

Thrombocytopenia- is a condition characterized by abnormally low levels of platelets, also known as thrombocytes, in the blood

Nonetheless, thrombotic thrombocytopenia is not a fatal condition. It is easily treatable. The author of the "biography" in question was using the opportunity to politicize the biography page, which is not ok.
 


The mealy mouthed fuckery.

I also love the reaction of someone who's NOT used to facing some pushback.

To then spin around & cry about partisanship, when your decision making is based on partisanship.

And the clincher... bringing in AOC... 👀
