{COVID-19} Vaccination Injection Interjections VIII - Who cares at this point

[Meresgi]

Well shit, flew gf friend out to SD for birthday and apparently she popped positive for COVID today before flight back. I have a flight to MD in like 7 days for my doctorate residency with $1200 non-refundable plane ticket so yay....I think even non-refundable tickets can get a refund if it's COVID related? Or is that no longer the case?

Don't even tell em, if you want the real answer =\ you're vaxed aren't you? And will likely be masked at work anyways? Chances are you're fine and it's not worth the hassle you'd cause by bringing it up.

A lot of airlines got rid of their exchange fees for a new flight. You can't get a refund though. Or in Delta's case, you pay a cancellation fee and only get Delta credit.

I sent an email already to them. They do residency with students from other countries over Zoom so no reason they shouldn't be able to accommodate me. I'm just thinking if I do get a breakthrough case, I don't want to be doing my thesis proposal while also feeling like utter ass lol. Yeah i'm vax'd though so not too worried, last jab was back in Nov with Moderna so I need to re-up. Was waiting until end of summer though for fall covid funsies season

We learned literally nothing in the past 2yrs. Explained my situation and laid it out as being exposed in close quarters repeatedly over the weekend. Don't want to risk exposing a plane full of people during a 5hr flight nor my friends who I was going to stay with + other students at the residency etc etc. Get an email back

"Nah we aren't doing virtual, have to show up. Why can't you show?"

MOTHER FUCKER I TOLD YOU WHY.

Then got punted to another professor who literally NEVER checks their fucking email, like I had to spam them 15 times before in order to get an answer to a simple question.

Of course we haven't. We had 2 outbreaks in our office in the last month because the senior partners think coming to the office with a raging headache and whooping cough is no big deal.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis on Thursday railed against providing Covid-19 vaccines to young children, saying Florida will not provide state programs to administer vaccinations for toddlers or infants.

DeSantis, speaking at a press conference in Miami, said that Covid-19 vaccines have not gone through enough testing and clinical trials to determine that they are effective and added that kids are least likely to suffer serious health consequences from Covid.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Johns Hopkins Medicine and the Mayo Clinic have emphasized that the Covid-19 vaccine is safe and has urged the public to get the shot to protect against the virus and prevent serious symptoms.

“I would say we are affirmatively against the Covid vaccine for young kids,” DeSantis said. “These are the people who have zero risk of getting anything.”

God I hate that man.

The wife and I got it finally after being so cautious. Started with a bit of phlegmy, scratchy throat and now just some nasal congestion with a bit of a dry throat cough.

Wife is a few days behind on the symptoms. We are assuming the baby is positive too but he's been pretty asymptomatic. No fever, nothing else to note.

Kind of annoying that we had to postpone his 4 month doctor visit and only availability was nearly a month later. Not sure how that impacts his vaccine schedule or efficacy of them though

Speaking of, my crazy aunt that loves to send us unsolicited MAGA/QANON shit sent us a message that the vaccines were only tested on three children to determine effectiveness for toddlers. Because I love to disprove her, I wanted to find the original source, but I can't find any source for it. Has anyone else seen anything like this?

Pfizer's study

In Phase 2/3, a total of 4,526 participants 6 months through 4 years of age were randomized 2:1
to receive two doses of 3 µg BNT162b2 or placebo, 3 weeks apart. The Phase 2/3 portion of the
study did not exclude participants with a history of prior SARS-CoV-2 infection or clinical
symptoms/signs of COVID-19, participants with known HIV, hepatitis B or hepatitis C, or stable
pre-existing disease (defined as disease not requiring significant change in therapy or
hospitalization for worsening disease during the 6 weeks before enrollment). Based on analyses
of post-Dose 2 safety and effectiveness data, the protocol was amended to add a third primary
series dose at least 8 weeks after Dose 2 (C4591007 protocol amendment 6). Participants
enrolled prior to implementation of protocol amendment 6 (N=3,883; February 1, 2022), were
able to be unblinded at their 6-month post-Dose 2 visit, and those originally randomized to
placebo were offered BNT162b2 vaccination at the age-appropriate dose level. Participants
enrolled after implementation of protocol amendment 6 will be unblinded at their 6-month postDose 3 visit, and those originally randomized to placebo will be offered BNT162b2 vaccination.

Theres no point sending them any documents, because they'll just read what they want to read and interpret it however it will suit them. Remember the "adverse effects" report?

Only 3 kids in the 6mo-2yo cohort got COVID in the trial period, 2 control and 1 vaxxed. There were hundreds of kids in those groups.

What's the point?

All sources are fake. Audio is doctored, video is deepfakes. Nothing is real.

My older brother showed our dad a clip of a Capitol police officer testifying as to what he saw and what anyone could see or hear because it's on his publicly disclosed body cam footage and he got angry and said that cop is a traitor who's been paid off by someone.
