I don’t agree with the majority of the mandates but working in healthcare…. We are already mandated to have an abundance of vaccines and tests due to direct patient care….. I had to get two vaccines again that I had already received when I was younger but couldn’t prove to work at my current position.

Like I said, dumb move on their part considering especially that the vaccine does not prevent you from contracting and spreading the virus. There is no point in it, and they aren't following the science.

Ah, "follow the science."

In the most recent study of the Omicron VoC, what is the delta of the booster immunized SAR to the two dose / previously infected SAR? Does a 95% bound produce a confidence interval you find acceptable?

I look forward to following your science.

Ok, here is my science: While the vaccine may lessen your symptoms if you take it, having the vaccine does not prevent you from becoming infected with COVID, and thus does not prevent you from transmitting that infection to others. Easy peasy.

Excellent. That's part of the science.

I disagree….. from my experience…. It is correct that vaccinated people can catch COVID but the chances of them getting really sick from it is greatly reduced…I do think COVID has been used as a political tool and don’t agree with the majority of what is being said about it.

No studies have been done on that yet. We'll have to wait 6 more months for that news to possibly break.

There’s only 21 studies on it.
The role of vitamin D deficiency on COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies - PubMed

Conclusions: According to our results, vitamin D deficiency may increase the risk of COVID-19 infection and the likelihood of severe disease. Therefore, we recommend vitamin D supplementation to prevent COVID-19 and its negative outcomes.

They are not gatekeepers of anything. Just who you choose to listen too.

It's not me that listens to them for guidance.

Its a significant portion of the general public that only get their guidance from the network news or listen religiously to Fauci and Biden.

These people have been beat to death about getting the jab and social distancing and masking, when the more practical approach would have been to use the same effort and energy to talk about lifestyle changes (diet/obesity), Vitamin D, zinc, etc.

My chances of winning the lotto is something like:

0.000007%

If I buy two tickets my chance is

0.000014%

How drastically have my chances changed?

Greatly? Because it doubled?
Or slightly because that is still a very very small chance?
