Here's what I found after starting on the path @TheDeeble put me on.

About 0.4 percent of patients who previously tested positive for COVID-19 tested positive again after 90 days, according to Epic Health Research Network data released April 23.

No idea what resources they used to compile their data.

That’s not even taking into account the false positives.... we had one just the other day at my facility..... sent home from work for 10 days even though she got two other negative tests to confirm the first one was false.

Are these actual M.D.s? They sound like a couple of quacks.

OSHA Imposes New Guidance For Employer-Required COVID-19 Vaccines

"If you require your employees to be vaccinated as a condition of employment (i.e., for work-related reasons), then any adverse reaction to the COVID-19 vaccine is work-related. The adverse reaction is recordable if it is a new case under 29 CFR 1904.6 and meets one or more of the general recording criteria in 29 CFR 1904.7."

Without a subscription, I can't read the entire article, but I can offer a little local insight that was detailed at a recent local meeting of the Knox Co Board of Education:

The number of kids hospitalized with CV19 at Children's includes a significant number that were hospitalized for an unrelated condition and tested positive, a situation that obviously creates a number of questions (test reliability/PCR threshold, significance of asymptomatic infection, etc). Assuming that this trend generalizes on a national level and that vaccination of older adults holds effective, I would think that the percentage of "hospitalizations" accounted for by the younger demographic will continue to rise.

It is important to consider the severity/outcome of these cases and hospitalizations. If they are basically all recovering without sequelae and no deaths, it's really a non-issue.

Do you have a link to this "board of education meeting"? If there's not an article I have to assume it didn't happen.

That’s the second time you have implied kiddiedoc has been peddling Facebook posts here.

You have moved from playing the dramatic victim to outright lies. It’s a really bad look.

Well I mean he/she doesn't want to explain his/herself, so what am I supposed to believe?

Here is the real money shot from this OSHA decision. The MFers messed up in a good way for once.

“In response, several large contractors said they have changed or will change their vaccination policy to only recommend—not require—a vaccine.”

Actually they didn't "mess up" in a good way. It's an incredibly stupid decision.

A client can still require a vendor/contractor to have all employees working on site be vaccinated yet the vendor is running a huge risk by requiring employees to be vaccinated. It's a terrible decision and completely at odds with what the administration is pushing.
