Barry McCockinner Posted December 22, 2021 Author Share Posted December 22, 2021 1 minute ago, johnnysd said: The vaccine wears off a little after time so the most consistent thing I have heard is that people with the booster are the most protected but all vaccinated people get the disease less and have less severe symptoms. The thing I am struggling with a bit is that the new variant does not really seem to be more dangerous than the common cold (which is also a covid virus) as opposed to the original variants which were orders of magnitude more dangerous. Yea if what they're saying about the omicron variant is true it really doesn't seem to be a threat compared to prior iterations. I posted an article earlier where they're thinking vaccinated +infection gives "super immunity", which could mean this omicron spreading is actually a blessing rather than the dooms day some are suggesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree you should live your life, but if you contract the disease you need to be quarantined. My neighbor is a Dr. at Yale and he said the beds are full with Covid patients - 80% are unvaccinated and 20% are vaccinated without a booster. Also said people are dying every day. But hey, why not play a game while infected. Back to this old addage of the beds are full, we're going to crush the system, we need 5 million ventilators. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t get this contagious thing I’ve caught the common cold twice the last 2 months but never Covid ever, don’t mask cause they don’t work, I wash my hands and be mindful, I never locked myself up for this thing went to work, yes physically got in the car and drove to my job since the beginning I’m essential. I really hope I catch this omnicron thing soon so I can completely put this behind if I already don’t have immunity from this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s because nobody is vaccinated to omnicron it didn’t exist when the vaccine was made, Pfizer said weeks ago they would need about 90 days to dial in the formula to protect against omnicron, get vaccinated for Delta and original virus sure, but don’t bother imo with another shot for omnicron it won’t work only catching the omnicron virus will give you immunity to it. This will and already is spreading faster and is less potent then the common cold, it is basically the common cold as someone said before the same class of virus, that’s how they were able to make the vaccine so fast they been experimenting with one for the common cold for decades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be clear very soon. At some point if Covid becomes like a cold or flu for those vacinated they have to be able to move on with their lives without quarantines. Those who don't get the vacine should probably be moved to Devils Island and denied ventilators. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadienJetsFan Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Here’s hoping coach has a mild case and that he gets well soon. Silver lining. he gets to watch his team ( especially his D) from a far and sees just as we fans do, just how god awful they are. Maybe that sort of perspective is exactly what is needed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've listened to him - interesting. I dug into one of the things he said that I heard otherwise on and it basically turns into a semantic thing where he's technically correct but functionally wrong - making his argument intellectually dishonest. Kind of makes me distrust the rest of what he had to say but I don't fully write him off ... yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
