    I fear we are really going to be in a bad place due to the obvious cuts to the federal agencies that deal with infectious disease, but also the negative effect the Affordable Care act has had on non urban hospitals. Our front line defenses are ineffectual and our ability to treat the populous is probably at an all time low. Factor in the cost of healthcare and I can see our system crashing. What do you think about the politics of this virus?

    I had a friend of mine tell me that they read the vaccine would have chips in it. I asked her for proof, and she mentioned Facebook. I told her that Facebook shouldn't ever be trusted. Always need to verify the information. I think she's an intelligent lady, and we don't talk politics, but I'm fairly sure she's conservative, and her husband is even more conservative. She probably voted for Trump, so it didn't surprise me. The suspicion and conspiracy theories are crazy. At least I think I made her question the insanity of the chip concern.

    I know a professor, department head at a major medical school asked me if I am worried that the vaccine has chips in it. This lady also walks around the hallway without mask. I made a point not to run into her again.

    Unfortunately, being intelligent and being a dumbass are not mutually exclusive.

    That would normally mean that she is actually far from intelligent.

    I used to think the same thing. "He/she is really intelligent so I don't know why they're acting like this." Now I just call them what they are. Dumb arses. To their face.

    Peoples obsession with this chip nonsense is maddening.

    One the government doesn't care about your comings and goings enough to go through all this trouble to get you "chipped".

    Two if they wanted any of the information the chip get's them guess what. They already have it. And they are getting it from the very place they are learning about the chip. Facebook and their own personal spying device they carry around with them EVERYWHERE EVERY DAY and tell everything too!!

    I mean seriously even if you don't have Facebook guess what. Your friends and family do and that's all they really need to have a pretty good idea about you. Chip. pffffft. We've been "chipped" since the first smart phones hit the market. We plant our own freaking bugs into our homes with the Alexas and Google plays. My freaking washing machine and refrigerator hook up to the WIFI for crying out loud!!! And these dumb arses are worried about a freaking chip. Morans.

    I can't agree more. The information about you sold makes billions of dollars because we allow it. Nobody needs to chip anyone.

    All the chip fearing people get in cars that track their entire movements for their safety and don't get up in arms do you think GM needs to track you? What do they do with that data?

    The insurance companies then track you so they can offer you a slight discount now they know everything that your vehicle does, how quickly, where you go, and can sell that for the couple bucks they save you.

    All this big brother watch you is nonsense.

    Your uncle sam is not tracking you corporate America is and if flat arse banking because of it.

    I am not happy that these people are gonna refuse the vaccine but it will sure make it quicker for me to get one.
     
    How do you screw up buying as much of the vaccine as possible and then try and force that company to prioritize American interests after you screw everything up?

     
    I remember in the 1990s intel announced their pentium III processor would come with a unique serial number, and it caused such a backlash and uproar about "being tracked" that I think they removed it (or at least said they would)


    If anyone uses a windows 10 computer, there are all kinds of telemetries going on in the background

    If you own a mac, you have things in the OS bypassing/ignoring firewalls

    oh and also this
    "This means that Apple knows when you’re at home. When you’re at work. What apps you open there, and how often. They know when you open Premiere over at a friend’s house on their Wi-Fi, and they know when you open Tor Browser in a hotel on a trip to another city."

    basically, a lot of people scared about "chipping in vaccines" are ignorant and have no idea how much they are being tracked already
     
    meanwhile there are idiots like these people



    "Do not [take] the vaccine. Believe in the blood of Jesus. Believe in divine immunity," he said to parishioners at an in-person service.

    He also made false statements about the vaccine being used to track people, and claimed the vaccine would "alter your DNA" — a theory that has been debunked.

    The pastor, who hosted President Donald Trump for a rally in January where the campaign launched an "Evangelicals for Trump" coalition, also referenced a "New World Order" conspiracy theory, warning parishioners about a "satanic global agenda."

    "They want to stop President Trump because he's against that agenda," Maldonado said.
     
    CNN is now reporting that White House Chief of Staff (in other words Donald Trump) told the FDA commissioner to either approve Pfizer's vaccine today or resign.

     
    Democrats politicians keep getting caught not following their own guidelines for Covid. If these were Republicans we would say they deserve to get Covid or they don't value people's lives right?

    LAST MONTH, California Gov. Gavin Newsom was caught violating his own warnings against multiple households dining together indoors. The Democratic governor was spotted at the French Laundry, an exclusive restaurant north of San Francisco, where he was celebrating the birthday of longtime friend Jason Kinney.

    The dinner controversy was more than just an opulent display of political double standards — it also highlighted the backroom efforts to maintain special treatment during the pandemic. Kinney, a veteran political operative, is a lobbyist for a number of interests seeking to shape the rules governing life under the pandemic, including what kind of economic activities are deemed essential in order to stay in business.

    The inside track may have paid off. One of Kinney’s clients, Netflix, has been allowed to continue to operate during the latest round of forced closures that began last week as intensive care hospital capacity has dwindled across the state.

    The entertainment industry has been given extensive leeway to operate during the pandemic, even as California now faces a stay-at-home order. The state has deemed the television and movie production industry as “critical infrastructure” and has allowed Hollywood studios to continue filming projects, including in Los Angeles, which is facing the most strict lockdown order.

    And that's what I do what I do :hihi:

    And Republicans keep getting and spreading the Trump Virus. No worries though, trump makes sure they get preferential treatment the moment they pop positive, unless their names are Herman Cain. I wonder what makes him different???
