The Pandemic of the Unvaccinated
Posted On 10 Dec 2021
I should first note that I am vaccinated and believe that others should be vaccinated. I think it is the smart decision based on everything I have studied. I have received many vaccinations over my lifetime with no ill effect – tetanus, flu, shingles, polio, etc.
But I am totally against mask and vaccine mandates for the very reason that I am vaccinated. I do have some questions regarding the need for children to be vaccinated. The statistics are not as compelling as for adults – and especially seniors and even more especially for seniors with serious underlying conditions.
At the time I got my vaccination I declared – based on all the scientific evidence – the Pandemic was over … fini … for me. I believe the doctors and scientists who said that my chance of getting Covid was less than 5 percent. My chance of getting a serious case, less than that. My chance of requiring hospitalization even less. My chance of winding up in and ICU almost zero. And my chance of dying from Covid, statistically zero. Yes, there have been anecdotal cases, but not enough to rise to a statistic.
I was not a dedicated mask wearer even before I got the jab because of what the scientists said. I only wear a mask when required to do so – almost exclusively in medical facilities. Here in south Florida, I have not found a mask requirement or even a suggestion in any retail outlet, office, grocery stores or pharmacy.
But I am bombarded by all the fearmongering in the news media. We are told that there are too many cases … too many hospitals reaching capacity … and too many deaths. But that has nothing to do with me, 0r all those other vaccinated folks and those with natural immunity.
According to the scientists, between 80 and 90 percent of those who contract Covid are not vaccinated. That should come as no surprise since the vaccines are said to have a 95 percent efficacy – possibly dropping little. And the death rate among the vaccinated is close to zero.
So, what about all those folks getting terribly ill with Covid – and dying? To me, that is on them. Remember that virtually everyone dying of Covid has decided to take that risk. It is a disease spreading and inflicting those who chose to take the risk. They are spreading it to each other.
There were questions raised if the vaccinated folks could spread the Covid to others. The most recent studies say that the vaccinated are not spreaders to any major degree. And if we are, those getting the virus are those who decided to take the risk and not get vaccinated.
It does not seem sensible to shut down America – create Draconian mandates and regulations – to oppress the 70-plus percent of the population who are vaccinated just because 20-some percent of the population want to take the risk. I say it is a free country. Let them take the risk. Just do not punish us who are vaccinated and not likely to get Covid. To me it would be like having the police arrive at a crime scene and arrest the perpetrators AND all the witnesses.
Fortunately, I live in a state (Florida) that is not punishing those who are vaccinated as opposed to New York City that is locking down, locking up and oppressing the freedom of all its residents. Hmmm. Maybe that is why there are so many folks from New York City currently in Florida.
Maybe — just maybe – getting rid of all the destructive policies, like masking, distancing and vaccine passports – would actually encourage more folks to get vaccinated. If not, it’s their funeral.
So, there ‘tis.
I do not know where your information comes from. I have seen many doctors and scientists reporting that the vaccines are actually driving the variants, aside from some of the side effects. I personally know people that are fully vaccinated that have got COVID and were terribly sick. I am not against vaccines, actually got the shingles vax a couple years ago, but I am against mandates especially with an experimental and not fully tested drug. The big question is if a vaccinated person can still contract the virus, spread it to others, and get sick- what is the incentive to get the shot? Seems like the only difference is the unvaccinated don’t have to deal with side effects
Your article, despite being extremely well written, indicates that you are not currently aware of the actual immunological facts regarding covid vaccination. You seem to not be aware that natural immunity is far superior to vaccination; you also seem to be unaware that vaccinated individuals not only continue to spread Covid, but are generating variants. I myself have chosen to remain unvaccinated due to having auto immune disease for the last 12 years, and in equal part of my now complete distrust of our public health officials. I would ask you research this topic somewhat more thoroughly, as this will be doing both you and your readers a huge service. While I agree completely that vaccination should be a personal choice, discounting medical reasons that prevent vaccination while ignoring published medical fact regarding vaccination is profoundly irresponsible. You seem to have a bias against those who are unvaccinated. Speaking from a medical point of view, maintaining a bias in the absence of understanding critical and pertinent fact is simply ignorant and socially irresponsible.
I have no medical degree yet I can see read and use logic. It’s apparent from the very first sentence this was a biased effort to create a new,or not so new narrative with a different approach. Regardless of the obvious one sided argument you have created your so called facts don’t bear out upon deeper scrutiny. First of all most of the cases of the new Omicron variant is being transmitted via vaccinated and unvaccinated. The first known cases out of Africa all had been fully vaccinated. The first case in the St Louis area, now 20, was fully vaccinated. The list goes on and on. Nevertheless I believe you have missed the point entirely. It’s not about trusting the vaccine at all. This is about governmental overreach and the precedent it sets. In our current global ideology this is just another example of rich out of touch billionaires deciding a free societies lives in every aspect. If we allow this just one time we open the door for so much more. Have we not had enough of government deciding how we worship how we raise our children how we must think what we can say? The list is endless and once we capitulate we will see a never ending assault on our personal liberties. I for one have had my fill of ridiculous policies that simply don’t work. I’m fed up with people living behind brick walls exposing myself and my family to hazards they themselves aren’t affected by yet tell me I must accept it. When the rules created by despots never apply to the despots creating them we gain no confidence in the ruling elite. These mandates that clearly have done nothing but disrupt and even halt our lives and watching these feckless so called leaders continue to perpetuate the lies that have gotten us exactly where we are. The courts agree the constitution clearly puts that power in the hands of the states not in Fauci’s Biden’s or OSHA’s hands. Stay on point because conservatives won’t swallow tripe like we see the liberals swallowing. You are hereby notified that if you want to continue to have a following you had better stay on point and leave the garbage to the left.
All the vaccines you mentioned in your article had a minimum testing period of 5-6 years and some 10 years. The results have also been noticed over a 50 year period. The most observation time available for your new cure all vaccine is 18 months at most ? Not exactly what most scientists would call a period that would give us all the details we need to be confident that there will not be any dangerous effects passed down through these drugs to the children that will be born from a pair of parents who have had their shots.
Wondering if you could answer some questions for me
1.If the vaccines work why has the definition of the word vaccine been altered to no longer mean immune
2.Why the sudden spike in Myocarditis/Pericarditis
3.How do we explain the rash of Covid infection in such highly vaccinated countries such as Ireland and Israel to name just a few
4. Why is there a correlation between the emergence of variants such as delta and omicron with the rising number of vaccinated people
5. Why is Fauci pushing a booster if the original vaccine works so well
And finally why are you journalists so bad at reporting truth
Since this article was released I have sent this publication documented scientific proof that the claims in this article are grossly inaccurate. There have obviously been no replies in this thread from either the author of the article or any staff from this organization, nor have I received any responses privately. Being a veterinarian I am extremely well-versed in immunology, vaccinations, and am able to distinguish false scientific claims and identity supporting studies. As some of the previous posts authors state that they have no scientific background yet rely on common sense, this would be further proof that intelligence and education really have anything to do with each other. One does not need a medical degree to recognize basic truth and accurate fact.
It is therefore my conclusion that this publication is actually a left wing rag posing as a conservative news outlet. I would ask anybody reading these comments to share this information with everyone they know into put this publication on their blocked list. This is just another form of subversive propaganda intended as part of the mechanism to gain control over the American populace through fear mongering and presentation of lies and scientific fact. Please share this with everyone you know and block any communication from this organization.
