Student to teacher: 

 

"So why weren't we all in the building last year but with masks on?"

 

Teacher:

 

"Well because the teachers weren't vaccinated and we have immunocompromised group of teachers."

 

Student:  

 

"Well most of us kids over 12 aren't vaccinated and the under 12 year olds can't even get the shot. So why is it OK for us to be here now?  The risk to us is suddenly gone but.....still there??

 

Oh and the vaccine doesn't work for the immunocompromised."

 

Teacher, blown away by logic:  "Your Trumper parents are horrible people!"

You will know, or possibly be, someone who gets COVID-19 after a vaccine. Here's what to expect, according to 2 people with breakthrough cases.

 

 

Breakthrough infections, or COVID-19 cases diagnosed after someone is fully immunized, were supposed to be rare - at least that's what a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggested in May. At the time, data indicated that just 0.01% of vaccinated Americans got a breakthrough case from January to April.

 

But that was before the more transmissible Delta variant became the dominant strain in the US.

Say what? Why do you assume that these people are Trump supporters? As has been repeatedly pointed out, some of the biggest numbers of unvaccinated people are among blacks and Hispanics. Why is that?

Big percentage not as big of a number. Matters when talking about total numbers.

I got vaccinated.  If I catch it and don't have to be hospitalized or die I'm calling it a win.

 

You don't get vaccine so you don't catch it (you probably won't), you take it so you don't die.

 

Yeah I know the 99% thing, but that 1% is now numbering in the 600 hundred thousands.

Well Dogbert you apparently do because you’re the moran who said, “As has been repeatedly pointed out, some of the biggest numbers of unvaccinated people are among blacks and Hispanics.”

 

White unvaccinated far outnumber blacks and Latino. All of them are dumbasses.

So you don’t pass it on to others who can’t get vaccinated or have weaker immune systems. So you don’t bog down the health care system. So you don’t pass on the virus to people who have long term consequences. 
 

Trust me: I don’t care if you die. I just prefer that you do it privately.

So those fully vaccinated people cannot 

 pass COVID  on to the non-vaccinated?

 

If I die I promise it won’t be a public affair.

It could be, could be mind you, that the unvaccinated will transmit more Covid to others, being that they are more likely to, I dunno, catch Covid. Or not. Maybe the vaccine is not preventing Covid at all. You’re an old guy and you seem to require explanations a lot of times. 
 

Maybe take a mental capabilities test.

We all can “catch” Covid and pass it on vaccinated or not.  So aren’t the vaccinated just as likely to pass it on to others?

Rates of double-jabbed people in hospital will grow – but that does not mean Covid vaccines are failing

 

 

The next wave of Covid will be different. When cases soared in spring and winter last year lockdowns rapidly brought them back under control. This time it will be vaccines that do the hard work.

 

But Covid jabs are not a perfect shield. They slow the spread of the virus, help prevent disease, and reduce the risk of dying. They do not bring all this to an end.

 

In the months ahead many thousands of people will be in hospital with Covid. What may seem more troubling is that ever more will have received two vaccination doses.

You don't.  It would help for herd immunity but it's your choice.

Because Republicans are the group least likely to get the vaccine.

Yeah.  If you're vaccinated though the likelihood of a vaccinated person passing it on to you is reduced by over 90% if you got the mRNA vaccine.

I hate to break it to you but there are a ***** ton of Trump supporters who loath Republicans.  One of the reasons why I supported him. 
 

Did you mean if you’re unvaccinated?  Yes the chances are reduced but I’m not sure if it’s to 10%.   Regardless there is still that chance so those that cannot be vaccinated should take precautions if they fear the the virus?

Question. We have had hundreds of thousands of people attending sporting events, concerts, theme parks, airports, shopping malls and restaurants. All of which were essentially ghost towns just 12 months ago. And we have a small increase in a variant. That’s with nearly 50% of the population unvaccinated.  Whatcha all scared about? 
 

BOO!!!!

It’s less than 10% assuming you took the mRNA vaccine.  Desantis held a press conference yesterday saying 95% of Floridians who tested positive for COVID were unvaccinated.

 

As far as Trump supporters go, he is the most popular Republican among Republicans since Reagan so there should be outreach to Republicans based on all available polling.  The same goes for poor communities consisting mostly of minorities.

Don’t get it then.  But if and when you get infected, don’t complain.  If you get really sick and have to be hospitalized, don’t complain.  If you have to be put on a ventilator, don’t then cry to the doctors and nurses that you want the vaccine, because it will be too late.  And if you transmit it to your child or grandchild and they get seriously sick from it, start figuring out what you’ll say to the child and the child’s parents.  And how you’ll live with yourself if God forbid the worst happens.

 

Your statement that you don’t think you need it crystallizes in a few words the entire problem we’ve had since the pandemic started.  Selfishness.  You only think of you.  We are still in a national crisis with this pandemic, and historically when this country has faced such challenges we’ve come together to overcome.  The Vietnam war might be the only exception.  But what we have right now are people cloaking themselves in fake claims of freedom and rights, people deliberately spreading lies about the science of the vaccines, and so in.  All of it just is a cover for selfishness.  We used to have a country where the people would rise above partisanship in a time of need.  Not anymore.


 So don’t get it.  The anti-Vaccine folks?  Don’t get it.  People will die needlessly.  Younger folks including children will needlessly die and/or have lifelong illnesses.  But you do you.

But my question is not the chances of an unvaccinated person getting COVID. I’m talking about the chances of an vaccinated person passing it on to an unvaccinated person.  
 

And regarding Trump yes he was popular and he was a Republican. But if he ran under a third party he would be just as popular.

No he wouldn’t because they know he’d split the vote handing it to the Democrat.

 

If a vaccinated person somehow catches it they can absolutely pass it to an unvaccinated person.  It would likely be an unvaccinated person.

Not sure but lock downs and mask mandates at this point should be out of the question given the effectiveness of these vaccines.

No that’s my point. The folks pointing to the unvaccinated and saying “you can pass it on to the unvaccinated!!”  Well so can you. 
 

Regarding Trump splitting the vote?  You are correct.  That would hand it to the dems. But we have to do something to break up these two ***** parties that have a stranglehold on us.

Vaccinated people have a much lower possibility of either contracting the virus or infecting others.
