Vaccine provocation

some nice person flew up from texas the other day, contaminated a few places with measles, and flew back

 

More measles charts:


This year's cases are the most since 1992, and we are close to exceeding that year's figure.

 

Here is JHU's Covid-19 map:

 

Change "similar" to "identical".

Looking closer, the map on CDC's Covid page is really the same Influenza map, re-labeled to "Influenza-Like Illness."

Influenza page (note that Week 50 much worse than Week 49):

COVID-Net State Activity Indicator Map

 

However, moving from State to CBSA views, produce this (probably much state data missing) - - -

unfortunately, we're in the red. so far, post Christmas, no reported illnesses among family and friends, but it's early.
can't wait to get to florida, where no one ever gets sick

 

HI's 95% green natch, except there there's a million plus smashed into 200 mi² of habitable land of 600 total on O'ahu... plus receiving air traffic from all over the Pacific Rim, including direct from three of the most densely-populated cities on earth (Jakarta, Tokyo, Mexico City)? Yeah, I'll take the yellow-green

Both the most Western places I've lived >1yr, have pretty good flu vaxxing, which I'll laud given the nonsense being puff-puff-passed around since the pando. Miracle I didn't get flu more often, alternately frying and freezing third point respectively...

Covid data... not surprised there's such a dearth of data, esp from three Deep South states. What the hell's up w/ Jersey and CT/RI though?

 

"You will never eliminate Rotavirus, SARS-Cov-2, RSV or Flu" His words...not mine.

 

Very good, I didn’t know warpspeed was a radical socialist solution. Worked pretty well to take profit risk off the table. We are on the internet for the same reason.

 

Why did he say this? Anti vaxxers are you listening?

 

i have been getting jabbed for 70 years, and the only side effect is that i'm a little mental. might be the aluminum, or maybe tin foil?

 

I've had all my real vaccines for 67 years, but the covid and flu "shots" never worked.

 

Define "never worked".

Didn't eliminate getting the flu/Covid?

Or didn't work lessening the severity?

Why during Covid did areas of the country with lower vaccination rates have statistically more deaths and hospital admissions than the areas which were more commonly vaccinated?

I and my wife were vaccinated. We both got Covid in our late 70s. Not a big deal since I'm still typing. Without the shot, will never know the outcome.

 

you have to look at the clinical trials for an idea of outcomes.

 

Quoting out of context for fun and sport.

... using a different definition of "never worked".

 

They always worked.
