Bitcoin doing nicely while I was gone from here.
OT: Went on 2wk vacation abroad.
There is a LOT of infection going on (anecdotally based on relatives info).
Being vaxxed does not seem to make an effect on being infected, but probably has an effect on severity (hopefully).
People lost the sense of following the rules though and 50% are flaunting mask rules in public transport (subway, etc) despite (theoretically) a potential of being fined.
Those 50% are wearing the mask, but on the neck, lol
The fine is $60 equivalent-a slap on the wrist if you ask me.
Conclusion: I think that at some point almost all will get infected (in the range of 75-90%) and, hopefully, vaccines would help with reducing mortality and serious effects-that's what the main purposes should be anyway, but people would get upset by the fact that current vaccines (even the best) are not as clear-cut as we all hoped them to be.
1)I think they are a clearcut short term solution that would knock this off the map of the world if the world had a 95% vax rate.
2) I think none of us know what the long term effects of this vax will do to our bodies. It will take 10 years to find out.
3) I think more than 2 billion people will resist the vax and not get it as they fear point number 2.
4) Ten years from now I think people will still argue over this. Even thought the math will show a clear cut difference in death rates for the vaxed vs the un vaxed.
My guess was vax is smarter then no vax.
So I walked over to the barrel of guns grabbed one and played a round of russian roulette so to speak and vaxed.
I have zero problem with anti vaxers as long as they admit no vax is going to the other barrel of guns and playing russian roulette so to speak 🗣
which is the better wheel of death 💀 to play?
i hope vaxing. I want to be around in ten years to see how much my btc is worth.
1) You don't need 95% vax rate to knock covid off the world map. A 95% vax rate would be required for something like measles with an R
0 of 16+
2) We don't even have to look very hard for long term effects of the covid vaccines. Myocarditis enlarges the heart, causes scarring and weakens the heart muscle
permanently. Likewise any clotting causes loss of blood flow to areas of your body causing the death of tissue - the clots in vital areas have long-term negative effects and we have already seen this as well.
3) It should be their right to decide.
4) I'm not even going to wait 10 years. Children don't need this experimental vaccine! It should have been reserved for the elderly, the "at risk" eg. diabetes, obese, those with weakened immune systems etc.
You didn't play Russian roulette - you're in at least one "at risk" group and you needed the vaccine. Giving the experimental vaccine to perfectly healthy children under 12 years of age who will experience little, if any, symptoms even if infected with SARS-CoV-2 is paying Russian roulette with society's most precious commodity.
