I think people forget this about CEOs and shit. While Satan may ultimately be their master, their immediate motivation seems to me to be to virtue signal to their social circle. They serve on the boards of shit with other woke CEOs; probably play gold with these people; live in Marin County. The social pressure put onto them isn't the same as your average gamer.

Unless they are 60+, that is nothing to brag about, only a marker of their obedience.

Unless they are 60+

I hate that you keep lying about this based on what you've been fed from CNN.

There is zero benefit for anyone 60+ get vaccinated or the booster shot.

And you have zero longitudinal data to back up your baseless point.

When you get above 60 you're getting into higher risk categories. If you're over 80 you're at even higher risk, and most over 80 have underlying health conditions where the jab starts to make some sense because you're at an actual risk of WuFlu

You're right that 60+ does include higher risk for various co-morbidities, and you're absolutely right that a vaccine would make sense for people over 80... if the there were actually vaccines available that worked.

Unfortunately, these things floating around that people are being mandated to take aren't vaccines, and they there is no data available showing that they have any efficacy at all when controlling for the data (because the control group was contaminated by Big Pharma).

Essentially anyone saying the vaccines are effective are begging the question, because there is no longitudinal data available showing their effective.

In fact, even the zeitgeist are admitting they are ineffective because they're claiming now that you need the boosters to be considered fully vaccinated against every new variant: https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/584943-fauci-when-not-if-definition-of-fully-vaccinated-will-change

They work (in that they can reduce severity of symptoms, not in that they prevent you from getting it), just not as well or as safely as advertised.

Informed consent is about truthful & transparent info so people can calculate the risks and make their own decision. This includes the truth about how deadly the virus itself is too.

I probably wouldn't trust this shit even if I was twice as old with more co-morbidities, but I could understand others would.

I haven't come across any placebo control group studies that show that it's not just the placebo effect in play.

We can't know for sure that they even reduce symptoms unless the placebo effect is accounted for.

While coof deaths are down in fall 2021 vs fall 2020 the all cause excess mortality is not.

What longitudinal Israeli data? Link to the Phase III and Phase IV data trials for the boosters.

Glad we agree, since there is no peer reviewed control data showing that the vaccines benefit anyone.

So have my friends :( Plus the can't wait to get my 6 year old vaccinated crap. None of them are in any risk group, 28-37 and healthy. They are also for vaccine mandates.

Are you vaxxed? Last time I met someone who was proudly vaxxed, I made a point to tell them Im not and never will be, and yet still very much alive and healthy. At some point the cognitive dissonance is gonna grow to great to ignore.

People who have only received two, four, eight, twenty four, weekly, COVID vaccine shots are gross. People should have shots hourly. /s not sarcasm.

I know there's insulin pumps that can be implanted to automatically deliver. How long until they are implanting mRNA pumps?

Dear Prudence, my brother in law refuses to take the vaccine. Should I keep all of his mother's inheritance or merely refuse contact with him until he submits?

Dear Sable, truly the unvaccinated are a threat to our Democracy. As a white male, he may also rape your children. It's best if you decline contact as we are likely to throw him into a camp in the next few months.

Shalom and happy Hannukah.
