My neighbour is a Zumba teacher that is some ass!Originally posted by DoctorStrangelove View Post
I'm sure it says "Verily thou shalt stone the trolls" somewhere or other.
Probably Leviticus, though that does seem to be designed to take all the joys out of life, such as coveting your neighbour's ass & all that.

Thanks for the reminder to fix it:

Nothing wild about that M, well said.Originally posted by malvolio View PostPerhaps, just as a wild thought, we should stop worrying about passing on Covid-19 and focus on passing on a fatal disease. Covid-19 is not a fatal disease to the properly vaccinated without some other factor helping out. It's no different in that respect to flu, a bad cold, or any of a dozen other respiratory diseases that we routinely ignore. A majority of recent fatalities are among the unvaccinated and most of the rest are patients with other issues present.

Not it's not arresting at all, apart from the easily frightened.Originally posted by d000hgAny particular reason for being quite such a knob?
I remind you this is headline news on the BBC, and it specifically says:
The statistic that there is a 1:4 chance of a vaccinated person who has Covid passing it on to another vaccinated close contact is quite arresting apart from anything else.
Any more bullet points you'd like to share in your argument against empirical medical study data? I realise as a historian things like maths aren't your expertise...
You're obviously not bright enough to realise there is no absolute knowledge, empirical is still just a probability as is all science, which in its basest meaning is from the Latin Scio - to know, but not in a fact based sense. Some scientists think they know all, but don't. I mean most scientists would say there is probably no God, but you know that to be false. (please I'm not turning this into the old argument, just an observation)
As a counter to your anecdotal story, the Wife has an old people's home with 50% tested positive for Covid, all asymptomatic, all double jabbed, that's what it is meant to do.

I think I directly know more people who have tested positive in the last few months having been vaccinated, than the rest of the pandemic. All quite depressing as the gloomy weather settles in.
and what outcome do you think your plethora of sanctimonious posts on an internet forum will have on reality??
get together with painful suelling.

Would it help if it was Timothy II.23 instead?
Research has shown the vaccines help:- reduce your risk of getting seriously ill or dying from COVID-19
- reduce your risk of catching or spreading COVID-19
- protect against COVID-19 variants
