And of course he'd like you to know how thankful he is for the vaccines and booster. Smart of him to disable comments but other than that he looks like a complete idiot.

There sure have been a lot of high profile, vaccine mandate pushing leftists that have been getting Covid lately. Guess they need another good pump out of the pharma companies while also setting the table for more corrupt elections in November.

If Bill Gates dies, who gets his money? Asking for an NGO friend.

I'm starting to wonder what exactly that vax does.

Saw a headline that case counts are up in states with high vax rates. Soooooo. Could one argue that it's not actually helping at all? And perhaps making things worse?

That's exactly what Alex Berenson argued today based on the data coming out of Vermont. It's the highest vaxxed state and now has Omicron raging through it. Not a coincidence.

The current vaccines don't do much of anything against omicron, which is much milder. It is cycling through the people who weren't already exposed to the other variants.

GEERT VANDEN BOSSCHE

"I SERIOUSLY expect that a series of new highly virulent and highly infectious SARS-CoV-2 (SC-2) variants will now rapidly and independently emerge in highly vaccinated countries all over the world and that they will soon spread at high pace. I expect the current pattern of repetitive infections and relatively mild disease in vaccinees to soon aggravate and be replaced by severe disease and death. Unfortunately, there is no way vaccinees can rely on assistance from their innate immune system to protect against coronaviruses as their relevant innate IgM antibodies are increasingly being outcompeted by infection-enhancing vaccinal Abs, which are continuously recalled due to the circulation of highly infectious Omicron variants. In contrast, Omicron's high infectiousness would enable the non-vaccinated to train their innate immune defense against SC-2 while the infectious and pathogenic capacity of the new SC-2 variants would be debilitated in the non-vaccinated for lack of infection-enhancing Abs in their blood. Unless..."


Geert Vanden Bossche received his DVM from the University of Ghent, Belgium, and his PhD degree in Virology from the University of Hohenheim, Germany. He held adjunct faculty appointments at universities in Belgium and Germany. After his career in Academia, Geert joined several vaccine companies (GSK Biologicals, Novartis Va
ccines, Solvay Biologicals) to serve various roles in vaccine R&D as well as in late vaccine development.

Geert then moved on to join the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation's Global Health Discovery team in Seattle (USA) as Senior Program Officer; he then worked with the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI) in Geneva as Senior Ebola Program Manager. At GAVI he tracked efforts to develop an Ebola vaccine. He also represented GAVI in fora with other partners, including WHO, to review progress on the fight against Ebola and to build plans for global pandemic preparedness.

Back in 2015, Geert scrutinized and questioned the safety of the Ebola vaccine that was used in ring vaccination trials conducted by WHO in Guinea. His critical scientific analysis and report on the data published by WHO in the Lancet in 2015 was sent to all international health and regulatory authorities involved in the Ebola vaccination program. After working for GAVI, Geert joined the German Center for Infection Research in Cologne as Head of the Vaccine Development Office. He is at present primarily serving as a Biotech / Vaccine consultant while also conducting his own research on Natural Killer cell-based vaccines.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

There's also a lot of irrational fear of Covid in places like Vermont, so when people feel mildly ill they run to get a test.

In places like Texas, not quite as much.

Over one million deaths now in the United States. Roughly 1.35M people have died in all US wars combined.

That was then, and this is now. Delta was horrible. Omicron has pretty much been a blessing.

I had it in January. It was touch and go there for a while. Had a headache and lost my appetite for a whole day.

Steve Kerr is out with Covid. Despite being the only one during game 3 with a mask. Which he conveniently wore under his chin.

This is just such a dumb comparison it's ridiculous. What am I supposed to do? Stop living life for multiple years? Wtf is your point? Yes, it's mild for 95% or more. It takes its toll on the elderly and unhealthy. It's going to continue to kill for eternity. Luckily less and less over time.

Not to mention if 1 18 year old dies in war you lose 55+ years of life . 100 80 year olds (people already older than the average age of death) dying quite simply isn't as sad as one 20 year old person in war.

In fact. To me millions of children having their life disrupted for years by data illiterate, scaredy-cat cat adults who don't understand we aren't saving anyone by doing so is more sad.

There's also the with/from argument but I won't dive into that

I do appreciate Gates's version of this completely rubs it in the world's face that he has "access to testing (pointless) and great medical care."

Thanks for rubbing it in that the uber rich get whatever they want while the poor die in the streets.

You seem angry.

My point is that almost as many people have died due to COVID related illness as have died in all US wars combined. It was a declaratory statement. It is an astronomical number considering the timeframe of the disease.
