thinning the herd, virus shot

[EdLongshanks]

I agree that its a moving target. I don't agree with your assessment of it being basically a 1 in a 1000 chance of getting the right one. They always say Flu type A, flu type B, etc. IF the flu shot has a 25% chance of working and we know its higher, why not take it? I'm 48, had the flu when I was 6 years old in first grade and missed a week of school. Took the vaccine starting about age 30 every year since. They've shut school down about 15 times or more since I've been working over the years. You honestly think the flu shot didn't help a thing in all of that and I was just lucky or had one Hell of an immune system??

Using that logic….I’ve never had the flu shot nor have I had the flu (knock on wood). That being said, I guess we can surmise that the flu shot it pointless.

I said he had the vaccine. Didn't say anything else. Not sure where you are getting that!

Wasn’t that verbatim?

You can have Covid and you build natural antibodies. After 90 days "give or take" those natural antibodies start to fizzle out. After they fizzle out, you can catch Covid again. That's the purpose of the booster vaccine. Several months after your vaccination they weaken. Then you go and strengthen it back up.

Where on earth did you come up with 90 days?!?

 

[EdLongshanks]

For sure? Nah. However, at some point common sense has to come into play. And you're saying all this with shitty garlic breathe, have a mint and call me in the morning.

He’s using your logic

Because I've quarantined about 140 students in the last 7 or 8 days. Health department told us that even teachers that had Covid previously had to be q'd also if it was longer than 90 days since they had it.

Where did the local health department come up with that time frame?!?

Yeah one of my good buds is a county health department big wig. He ain’t setting policy I can assure you of that. Great guy. A blast to be around and hosts an amazing deer camp that is a party of parties.

From the epidemiologist in Frankfort in consultation with other health departments.

LOL! It works tho.

Read the drug insert and see the risks and what was used as a preservative.

Yep…..and he regurgitated the guidelines directed to him from the cdc. This stuff is pretty easy to figure out.

 

[drakeshooter]

Like I said lmao.

Maybe, maybe not. Problem is, nobodies figured anything out.

 

[EdLongshanks]

Hell the hospitals blindly follow cdc guidelines. Only individual doctors with balls question the status quo. That should tell you something.
