All things CoronaVirus

Point being....she was vaccinated, had a breakthrough case in under a year, had symptoms and was treated. We may just have to live with it and if you have CV19 symptoms....you are prescribed a therapeutic, much like other illnesses.

Sure we can live with it. We have no choice. We are still living with the versions of the 1918 flu that are still circulating today.

Point being -- she was vaccinated.

This is step 1 in living with it. So, yet again, it is forking mouth breathers who are forking it up for all of us.

Just like how that a-hole Kyrie is forking over his team and fans for stupid selfish reasons.

yep……developing a vaccine is how you “live with it”

Anti-vaxxers and anti-maskers will take a brand spanking new anti-viral drug (that won't be against their religion) but heaven forbid they take a vax that's been around for nearly a year now, or mask up.

Freedom my ax. It's been a spite thing for months now.

Why is the development of an antiviral pill a negative thing? It's yet ANOTHER tool along with vaccination we have in our toolbox. Blowing smoke and complaining about Anti-Vaxxers does absolutely ZERO to help. Lot of it in this thread.

Joe

More twisting. Where did I say an anti-viral is a negative thing?

But there are people who'll immediately pop a new pill, or demand Ivermectin, or expect monoclonal antibody treatment, and have taken innumerable vaccines, but will be damned if they take a Covid vaccine or wear a mask, and you know it.

Those people do it out of spite.

Edit to add - I'll go one step further. Those who have taken the vaccine but defend others who choose to not take it are abrogating a responsibility to society.

Not my job to tell someone what health decision to make. Not yours either. People in the public health sphere get paid to do that. If those people chose not to listen, they either will face certain consequences or they won't. There will be unvaccinated people until the end of time, the sooner you realize that, the less time you will waste continuing to feel the need to fulfill "your responsibility".... Life is short, enjoy it. You want to spend all your time shaming others for being unvaccinated, so be it. DO NOT make others feel as if they are any less of a person than you are because you chose to morally shame them on a daily basis. Jesus christ, give me a break this bullcrap.

Joe

[a fan]

Not my job to tell someone what health decision to make. Not yours either.

Sure it is. We have hundreds of laws on the book, in every State, dictating health related decisions, my man. You can vote to repeal them at any time.....although you won't do that, because you LIKE these laws, but just don't pay attention enough to realize they are there.

This attitude you share with anti vaxxers is that you've convinced yourself that here in 2021 is the first time you've had the .gov tell you or your fellow citizens what you can and cannot do in this country when it comes to health choices.

It's silly. You're smarter than this, Joe.

Joe

Joe, maybe the important question to ask yourself is why do you keep entering this conversation, much less like a bull in a china shop?

If it bothers you so much, why not avoid it?

Instead, you entered with the accusation that someone had called the development of an anti-viral drug that could help with Covid, a ""negative thing". That was false and unfounded. No one had said such. And it was obvious no one had said that.

and yet, that's how you entered.

But there is this very real issue that some people are actually refraining from getting vaccinated, with the screwy logic that they can't trust the vaccine, yet are willing to believe in a new drug (which does have serious promise, apparently!), much less a drug that definitely doesn't (ie ivermectin). Yeah, that really is a problem...doesn't make the new drug a "negative" but rather the people not getting vaccinated using it as an excuse are indeed a 'negative'.

so, folks explain that...

And then you turn and go back to this refrain that no one should have an opinion, much less say their opinion, about the responsibility we all have to one another, not just ourselves.

And you keep resorting to the same "Life is short, enjoy it" as if no one agrees with you as to enjoying life. Trust me, no one is disagreeing with you about that.

If you were solely making some sort of behavioral science argument that the best way to get the most people vaccinated as possible was to avoid "shaming" in the process, that'd actually be an interesting discussion...but instead you're ripping at the very argument that it's important at all.

and yeah, that's gonna get push back. Hard.

Instead, you entered with the accusation that someone had called the development of an anti-viral drug that could help with Covid, a ""negative thing". That was false and unfounded. No one had said such. And it was obvious no one had said that.

and yet, that's how you entered.

But there is this very real issue that some people are actually refraining from getting vaccinated, with the screwy logic that they can't trust the vaccine, yet are willing to believe in a new drug (which does have serious promise, apparently!), much less a drug that definitely doesn't (ie ivermectin). Yeah, that really is a problem...doesn't make the new drug a "negative" but rather the people not getting vaccinated using it as an excuse are indeed a 'negative'.

so, folks explain that...

And then you turn and go back to this refrain that no one should have an opinion, much less say their opinion, about the responsibility we all have to one another, not just ourselves.

And you keep resorting to the same "Life is short, enjoy it" as if no one agrees with you as to enjoying life. Trust me, no one is disagreeing with you about that.

If you were solely making some sort of behavioral science argument that the best way to get the most people vaccinated as possible was to avoid "shaming" in the process, that'd actually be an interesting discussion...but instead you're ripping at the very argument that it's important at all.

and yeah, that's gonna get push back. Hard.

Obviously Joe isn’t vaccinated.

He says he is.

What??!! Why in the world would he get vaccinated??!!

I like the rhythm method. Oh wait, wrong conversation. Sorry.

I wonder if people that believe that you could die at any random time, don’t save for retirement because of a “here today, gone tomorrow” mentality? Why save ….you could die from anything….like Covid-19 or a heart attack. Can’t do much about it. Eat, drink and be merry.

Anti-vaxxers and anti-maskers will take a brand spanking new anti-viral drug (that won't be against their religion) but heaven forbid they take a vax that's been around for nearly a year now, or mask up.

Freedom my ax. It's been a spite thing for months now.

Why is the development of an antiviral pill a negative thing? It's yet ANOTHER tool along with vaccination we have in our toolbox. Blowing smoke and complaining about Anti-Vaxxers does absolutely ZERO to help. Lot of it in this thread.

Joe

He never said it was a negative thing.

The pill (and monoclonals) are crutches Anti-vaxxers use to avoid the vaccine, even though the arguments against the vaccine actually apply to monoclonals and other therapeutics as well. Having an antiviral pill is a great thing. Relying on it to avoid a vaccine isn't.

People deliberately avoiding getting vaccinated is certainly hurting the country and the world. Encouraging people to get vaccinated does a lot to help. It's also therapeutic to let out anger, and this is a discussion board after all...

The pill is not available yet, how are Anti-Vaxxers relying on it? Lot of hurdles being jumped here Natty....

Joe

LMAO I didn't say the pill is available right now. You can rely on things that aren't yet available, and people are already relying on things like the monoclonals, ivermectin, and other things that are available.. . So you're putting your foot in other people's mouths and your mouth on other people's feet. And ignoring the actual argument everyone else is having for some supposed minutiae gotcha. Cool bro!

Why so divisive? Just get vaccinated and live your life, no need to get worked up on some message board and split hairs that aren't here. No worries bro, don't worry, be happy! You're complaining a lot about a lot of people, and not helping. Lots of it in this thread.

Amazes me how potentially good news throws things off the rails here. I’m guilty at times but still amazing. Hope this EUA works out and saves lives.

Yep. It’s amazing that hoping people don’t put off being vaccinated because of the introduction of a therapeutic is viewed as “negative” by some people. When these people skip a vaccination and got to the hospital with COVID-19, I guarantee you they will ask for that pill. I am hoping people don’t look at a pill as a substitute for a vaccinated population.

Point being....she was vaccinated, had a breakthrough case in under a year, had symptoms and was treated. We may just have to live with it and if you have CV19 symptoms....you are prescribed a therapeutic, much like other illnesses.

Sure we can live with it. We have no choice. We are still living with the versions of the 1918 flu that are still circulating today.

Point being -- she was vaccinated.

This is step 1 in living with it. So, yet again, it is forking mouth breathers who are forking it up for all of us.

Just like how that a-hole Kyrie is forking over his team and fans for stupid selfish reasons.

yep……developing a vaccine is how you “live with it”

Joe

More twisting. Where did I say an anti-viral is a negative thing?

But there are people who'll immediately pop a new pill, or demand Ivermectin, or expect monoclonal antibody treatment, and have taken innumerable vaccines, but will be damned if they take a Covid vaccine or wear a mask, and you know it.

Those people do it out of spite.

Edit to add - I'll go one step further. Those who have taken the vaccine but defend others who choose to not take it are abrogating a responsibility to society.

Not my job to tell someone what health decision to make. Not yours either. People in the public health sphere get paid to do that. If those people chose not to listen, they either will face certain consequences or they won't. There will be unvaccinated people until the end of time, the sooner you realize that, the less time you will waste continuing to feel the need to fulfill "your responsibility".... Life is short, enjoy it. You want to spend all your time shaming others for being unvaccinated, so be it. DO NOT make others feel as if they are any less of a person than you are because you chose to morally shame them on a daily basis. Jesus christ, give me a break this bullcrap.

Obviously Joe isn’t vaccinated.

I am vaccinated TLD. I've been working in my company office for 3 days week since May now. Can only do that BECAUSE I am vaccinated. It's not so black and white as you make it. I can be of that opinion and still be vaccinated. Nonsense. Boy you guys are really something else. Accusatory to the NTH degree because you would rather morally shame somebody on this thread then spend the time thinking about the potential positives of an Antiviral pill. Instead, SClax goes right to the fact that Anti-Vaxxers are going to use it as a crutch? What about how it could potentially help an immunocompromised person who is vaccinated yet still contracts covid? Where's the discussion on that? Everything centers around anti-vaxx mouth breathers. None of those people EXIST on this god damn thread. Wasting your time constantly repeating it. Talking mostly to people on this thread that have the same narrow political narrative that you do. You don't even realize how much you guys just talk over each other and repeat the same bullcrap.

Why can't your first thought be that's another hopefully extremely effective tool in our toolbox against this disease. WHY is everything "a substitute for vaccination" in your eyes. Your problem is with Pharma then, because they aren't going to stop making antivirals such as these, because people might rely on them instead of vaccination. Moronic..
