Hey TWO, have you noticed how those who jump up and down proclaiming they have a right to, spend a vast amount of time trying to deny others of their right too.
They’ll say I have the right to not wear a mask but the store owner doesn't have the right to require one. Or, I have the right to not take the vaccine, but business do not have the right to require those who frequent their business to have gotten it.
It’s incredible how ignorant they are, don’t you agree?

Wow. Talk about the ignorant calling others ignorant....
Corporations do not have those protections under the Constitution.
Let's list the other mandates the government has enforced on businesses in the past again, shall we?
1. Minimum Wage.
2. Equal Opportunity Employment.
3. 4 hours for a break, 8 hours for a lunch.
4. Child Labor Laws.
5. Overtime after 40 hours a week.
6. Worker's Compensation.
7. Family Medical Leave.
8. OSHA.
9. Whistleblower Protection.
10. Not having to piss in a fucking bottle while delivering packages and sitting on a pressure sensitive seats that let the CEO know exactly where you are and how often you're in that seat.
Are you arguing that a business owner should be able to ignore any of these as well then Ted?
Because that's what it sounds like your argument is.

. . . 548,000 out of 250 million unvaccinated people were hospitalized vs. 2,000 out of 50 million vaccinated people.
This means that about 0.22% of the unvaccinated population ended up in the hospital with COVID-19 compared to 0.004% of the vaccinated population. That's a difference of 55:1.
In other words, if you are unvaccinated, your odds of getting a case of COVID-19 serious enough to require hospitalization are 55 times higher than they are if you get the vaccination.
Why such a big difference? There are two factors. First, the vaccines prevent infections by a factor of about 10-20:1. Second, if you are infected, the vaccines help to prevent you from getting a serious case. Put those two things together, and you get the 55:1 difference in serious infections.

Because we just make up numbers about everything. Half the people buy it, 1/3rd of the people won't ever dare express their skepticism outside of their homes, and the rest who do we'll just call QAnon or some other stupid name.
All lies.
It's been almost a year and a half now. Either I've never gotten it, or I wasn't even aware that I had it when I did.
Not afraid of your scary little virus dude.

Covid-19 vaccines have finally given the US an opportunity to claim a global healthcare success. Today, the country announced that it has fully vaccinated half its population, the first large country to do so. Only Israel, whose population is just over 9 million, Seychelles (population: 100,000), and San Marino (33,000) can boast a higher percentage.

Great. So you're vaccinated.
Now shut the fuck up, stop being scared, and re-open everything without passports.

Quote:For me, the pandemic shut down nothing but daycare. That was a problem solved by convincing employees' mothers to move closer to their children so that Grandma could watch the Grandchildren while Mommy and Daddy worked for Mr. second, who didn't shut down for even one second. I am thankful for the vaccinations because now I don't have to pay the Grandmas' mortgages and miscellaneous expenses, since they've gone home and the grandchildren are back in daycare.
