    So called breakthrough cases are so common now, not sure why they
    keep saying "Breakthrough cases" if it were a rare occurence I could
    understand it.

    One thing that the Left likes to do is wordsmith.

    and they love to parse words as well.

    Sometimes they use terms incorrectly, changing the definition of those terms (ex: "vaccine").

    Other times they use similar words to create impressions. Did you notice that Lefties live in "houses" or "estates", but Conservatives live in "compounds"?

    That's due to their elitism views, they think they're the chosen and can fix everything, look how they fixed California.
    If you goto LA or Sanfrancisco you better know how to Play shit and needle hopscotch.
    hey raise taxes to fix roads and then they use the money for pork barrel instead.

    On one of the news shows/channels the other day, a lady from the
    government suggested that the use of "breakthrough" was probably
    no longer appropriate due to the number of cases in vaccinated
    people that delta has caused.

    I totally agree with her.

    it's crazy how people parrot the bullshit that is told to them in the media. we've never heard of breakthrough cases of any vaccine until now. NEVER.

    This is so true, if you listen to CNN, MSNBC read NYT or the washington post or any of the leftist meadia the use the exact same wording parroting what the masters at the DNC tell them.

    But our natural immunity doesn't seem to have a problem dealing with the mutations.

    Er, it does. There are many, many, MANY examples of people who have had COVID more than once. even before the vaccines came about.

    Of course, if the COVID "vaccine" was actually a vaccine, it would handle the mutations as well.

    Once again, you're ignoring the J&J vaccine, which is a traditional vaccine and reportedly not as effective as the mRNA ones.

    Sometimes they use terms incorrectly, changing the definition of those terms (ex: "vaccine").

    Are you talking about the CDC changing "immunity" to "protection" in their definition? Because no vaccination has ever been 100% effective, as far as I can tell.

    Other times they use similar words to create impressions. Did you notice that Lefties live in "houses" or "estates", but Conservatives live in "compounds"?

    Do you live in a compound? I live in a house. I'm pretty sure any of my conservative-leaning friends also live in houses. Although I guess some may live in apartments or Duplexes....


    Speaking of wordsmithery, Here's a question:

    Can you make a single post without using the word "Leftie" ?

    It doesn't bother me, I'm just curious, I have never, ever, ever, seen a post from you that doesn't feature that word. It sounds like progressives/liberals/democrats have really set up shop and are living rent free in your head.

    Women have a 0.000086% chance of getting blood clots from the J&J vaccine. The chances of a random person dying from covid are many orders of magnitude higher than the chances of getting blood clots from a vaccine.

    The Smallpox vaccination had life-threatening reactions in 14-52 people per million. No one had a problem with it.

    The Polio vaccination actually had a .0002% chance of GIVING You paralytic polio. People were fine with it.

    Not to mention all the people that have adverse reactions to any vaccination, which is far more common than any of the above instances.

    This vaccine will not eradicate Sars-COV-2. Firsty, it is not fully effective in preventing someone contracting and transmitting the virus. Secondly, in order to have a chance at eliminating it, we need to know when people have it. But as many people seems to have this and are either asymptomatic, or have very mild symptoms, identifying those who have it is difficult.

    This makes this disease difficult to eradicate. Also, it is likely to further mutate.

    The constant comparisons to Polio are flawed.

    exactly. we arent smart enough to test everybody once a week. it's easy and fast to do so, but we cant pull it off.

    also people think if they have the vaccine they are bulletproof.

    i had a woman in a bar the other night yelling at me saying she cant get covid because she had the vaccine. and people that had health problems are the ones that need to worry. i partially believe that but everyone will get it and some people will have issues. that shit goes into your brain. i have concentration problems now. i am doing dumb shit at work that i would have never done before.

    All correct. And all of the above were long tested before they were recommended for everyone. So we knew the side effects (and worked to remove them) and knew how well they worked (and worked to make them better).

    But this is the Left's usual compairson of apples to oranges.

    The COVID vaccine is not a vaccine - by the (non-Left modified) definition of "vaccine". It does not provide immunity. And the makers of it NEVER advertised it as such. It was advertised from the start as a way to do nothing more than reduce COVID symptoms in the high risk people.

    Where are the results from all the tests for the COVID not-vaccine?
    Where are the studies showing all the side effects?
    Where are the studies showing the long term results?

    We have data showing that the not-vaccine doesn't work (as a vaccine).
    We have data showing that the not-vaccine actually makes symptoms from the variants WORSE.
    We have data showing a growing list of (usually really bad) side effects - specially in the young.
    And it hasn't been around long enough do determine any long term results.

    It made sense to give it to the high-risk people, since the risk of dying from COVID was about the risk of dying from the not-vaccine.

    But there is absolutely no science showing that it will help the general public.

    And then there's the Elephant-in-the-Room: Natural immunity - which the vast majority of the public already has - but the Left keeps ignoring it.

    So the real question is "Why are the leftie Tyrants pushing it on everyone?"

    on numbers, you have a 2.4% chance of getting COVID-19, and a 0.05%
    chance from dying from it.

    I take a larger risk driving to work every day.

    COVID simply isn't the problem the Propaganda Ministry - and shills for it like you - make it out to be.

    All of those vaccinations were pushed out to the public quite quickly after they were developed. Over the years, some were improved and updated. NO VACCINE IS 100% EFFECTIVE.

    Where are the results from all the tests for the COVID not-vaccine?
    Where are the studies showing all the side effects?
    Where are the studies showing the long term results?

    All of this information is avilable. Published by the vaccine manufacturers in various journals and in various governmental repositories throughout the world.
    We have data showing that the not-vaccine doesn't work (as a vaccine).

    Yep, breakthrough cases happen. they happen a lot with stuff like the measels vaccination too! That's why we started to have measels outbreaks in the last decade or so.

    We have data showing that the not-vaccine actually makes symptoms from the variants WORSE.

    I've been able to find no information about this from any medical source. Sounds like you're making shit up here.


    We have data showing a growing list of (usually really bad) side effects - specially in the young.

    It made sense to give it to the high-risk people, since the risk of dying from COVID was about the risk of dying from the not-vaccine.

    Are you talking about the VAERS data? You're not actually that stupid, are you? Tell me you aren't that stupid.


    But there is absolutely no science showing that it will help the general public.

    Except for the mountains and mountains of data that prove it already is. Covid cases and deaths are far lower in areas with high vaccination rates compared to those areas where vaccination rates are low.

    And then there's the Elephant-in-the-Room: Natural immunity - which the vast majority of the public already has - but the Left keeps ignoring it.

    There's no data to back up your claim.

    on numbers, you have a 2.4% chance of getting COVID-19, and a 0.05%
    chance from dying from it.

    I take a larger risk driving to work every day.

    And you probably put your seatbelt on (as mandated by the government), and drive carefully, right? taking precautions, you follow street signs, stop at a red light, etc.? or do you floor it all the way there, blowing through intersections screaming "MY BODY, MY CHOICE!"



    COVID simply isn't the problem the Propaganda Ministry - and shills for it like you - make it out to be.

    Hey, since you've got such a raging hard-on for by-the-book definitions, let's look at the definition for the word "shill"

    noun. a person who poses as a customer in order to decoy others into participating, as at a gambling house, auction, confidence game, etc. a person who publicizes or praises something or someone for reasons of self-interest, personal profit, or friendship or loyalty.

    Do you think someone called me up and is paying me to "shill" for vaccinations on an obscure, dying communications medium? Am I supposed to be getting paid for this? because I have no friends in big pharma, and no loyalty to any political party. I hold no stock in any pharmecutical company (which, in hindsight is something I probably should have corrected a couple years ago, but ... oh well!). So, the reason must be self-interest, but why, if I've already been vaccniated? Is it because, maybe, the vaccine works, and works better the more people get vaccinated?

    So, I'm glad we both agree. the vaccine is safe and effective, because I'm shilling for it.

    That's the lean inventory system. Many companies have gone to that over time. No warehouses, no stock loss. A big retailer here in Michigan doesn't have warehouses. They just have cross dock facilities. Manufacturer trucks pull in on one end, and unload. The stock goes through the facility, gets split up and comes out the other end to a truck destined for a store.

    The problem isn't lean inventory. It's offshoring of manufacturing, which many companies did to save money because of 1) unions demanding professional level compensation for still-less jobs and 2) the gov't raising the cost of maintaining an employee (think unemployment, insurance, gov't regulations, etc.).

    That's the lean inventory system. Many companies have gone to that over time. No warehouses, no stock loss. A big retailer here in Michigan doesn't have warehouses. They just have cross dock facilities. Manufacturer trucks pull in on one end, and unload. The stock goes through the facility, gets split up and comes out the other end to a truck destined for a store.

    The problem isn't lean inventory. It's offshoring of manufacturing, which

    i worked for a company that supplied caterpillar. they would order X transmissions. BUT.. would want 1 delivered every x amount of days. essentially they were using us as a free warehouse. if we delivered more, they would send it back and fine us.

    Depends on the business... too many are and have been interdependent on on-dem
    shipments and limited inventory.

    The problem isn't lean inventory. It's offshoring of manufacturing, which many
    companies did to save money because of 1) unions demanding professional level
    compensation for still-less jobs and 2) the gov't raising the cost of maintaining a
    employee (think unemployment, insurance, gov't regulations, etc.).


    ... If corn oil comes from corn, where does baby oil . . .

    At college every professor promoted working without deep inventories as the end all be
    all of stocks administration.

    There is a bunch of markets where such a thing does not work at all I am afraid. If
    you don't have deep stocks you cannot absorb spikes of demand. If your regular saleflow is 100 per week and you store 100 units only, if you get some psycho to
    purchase 90 units on monday you are screwed because chances are you won't get supply
    enough quickly enough for tuesday and every unit you cannot supply will be sold to
    your would-be-customers by your competitors.

    And I think that's one of the lessons learned from the scamdemic. I think you'll see companies running lean - with some warehousing to handle the spikes.
