Delta variant: The epidemic will sweep across the U.S. at different times, Dr. Scott Gottlieb...

Look at the CDC website...vaccinated or not you can still transmit the virus and its vairants...it has nothing to do with the vaccine...that is why the CDC is going back to mask mandates because the only thing the vaccine does is "ease your symptoms." Excerpt from their own page "Infections happen in only a small proportion of people who are fully vaccinated, even with the Delta variant. However, preliminary evidence suggests that fully vaccinated people who do become infected with the Delta variant can spread the virus to others. To reduce their risk of becoming infected with the Delta variant and potentially spreading it to others."

WELL, let me tell you about how it eased the symptoms of a family friend who was fully vaccinated...SHE DIED two weeks ago from COVID! Now tell me again how effective this vaccine is and it is the unvaccinated folks fault? You can believe what you read/hear but I will believe what I saw with my own eyes.

So are you pro or con vaccines?

The non-vaxxers clutter the argument to the point they do not consider the fact the immense vast majority of new cases are associated with non vaccinations. They lie about the risk of the vaccine or believe it is a flu or a political invention.

They have the opportunity to research the relevant facts. They look at the totality of misinformation and lies about COVID, and they disregard the compelling case for vaccination because they made the decision not based on facts but an alternate reality. They live in an alternate reality of lies. I can’t say this any simpler.

The unvaccinated will contract COVID. Imagine the unvaccinated as a sea and COVID is in millions of boats plying the sea. We want to shrink the sea but millions of people are too ignorant and obstinate. And what is supremely sad is some people will get sick or die because someone made the decision not to vaccinate a loved one. There are parents at hospitals praying and crying as they witness the life and death struggles of a child. There are countless people who are hospitalized and ask can they be vaccinated, but that would make no difference of the trajectory fate. Many who have to go to the hospital to be a patient or see a patient with COVID regret their decision not to vaccinate.

Those of us who do not live in the alternate reality see this train wreck. What is infinitely frustrating and makes me sigh with despair is that we can't stop that wreck. Those on the train don't know the wreck will occur on their ride.

Nobody knows the back end of this story of COVID. The virus will mutate. I believe the key to stamping out COVID is to reduce the sea of bodies that are susceptible the virus. Turn that sea to a lake then a pond. Isolate that bad boy. I am immeasurably adamant we humans must work to eliminate the possibility of the worst case scenario. I may be fucked when a new variant has mutated to the point our vaccinations become irrelevant.

I personally want to know why Trump supporters live in an alternate reality. If someone lies to me, I will lose an immense amount of trust with the person. Why do millions support a prolific liar? It's like a sick joke. It is so stupid, but it can't be funny because millions of Americans have suffered with COVID. Trump did nothing to prepare us for the pandemic. Millions suffer. Now Trump and the GOP are convincing people not to get vaccinated and not wearing masks is their basic human rights as an American. Millions more will suffer.

Can you not see the stupidity of what transpired under Trump's watch and what he is doing now? How many people must suffer because of Trump? The Trump supporters can't fucking see and understand the fidelity of the true, broad picture. They live in an alternate reality. I am curios. What are the mechanics for their brain washing. I am interested.

SPC Cody Verba - I know. I'd laugh as well but I have a 9 year old grand daughter I worry about.

SPC Cody Verba - Love them all. Just too bad they grow so fast. I always wish that my own kids or grand kids were small enough for me to hold them once more.

The misinformation was not just the previous administration but all the healthcare providers talking out their asses with no evidence based information and politicians from both sides weaponizing it. This Charlie Foxtrot was a team effort.
