    I see you can’t actually argue against my argument. Thanks for posting to prove it.

    You and I aren't on the same wavelength.

    We're not going to have an economic recovery until we get the amount of virus circulating wayyyy down. People are limiting purchases where they might catch the virus.

    Do you object to limiting opportunities for the unvaccinated to spread the virus?

    Great question and I can't wait to answer. Answer my question first so I know if I am having this discussion with an informed individual. What is the risk factor for healthy people?

    I'm all for restricting travel, but the economic cost of totally closing the border prohibitive. Do you understand why?

    This. Is. Pure. Projection. Yes, you most definitely are a Democrat, and, no, you clearly do not have the faculty to think outside the cultish mindset of defending Pelosi.

    This is unbelievable. Your willingness to easily forgive Pelosi does not line up with your side's hysterical condemnation of those who do likewise. The rhetoric about this disease is that this is a super dangerous disease, and we need to shut down businesses and destroy people's lives, but if Nancy Pelosi, not once, but at least twice, openly violates these draconian prescriptions, well, let's forgive and forget. No big deal. To quote you, "It's a lapse, a mistake, maybe a fault." And you have the audacity to soon after say, "Yes, it is a deadly virus, specially the delta variant that is currently the dominant one; hundreds of millions of people around the world know that by now." Your playing down of her flagrant violations of COVID mitigation protocols does not line up with your hysterical characterization of this disease. It's like you have zero self-awareness.

    To the people who are vociferously defending Pelosi, the voters who overwhelmingly voted her in, and the elected House Democrats who did not censor her, let alone remove her speakership, I want to make something clear to you:

    YOU. HAVE. ZERO. CREDIBILITY.

    You have forfeited your right to be taken seriously about how dangerous this disease is. You have forfeited your right to tell others to get a vaccine or mask up. You're hypocrites. Plain and simple.

    It's true. Democrats destroy the economy, using COVID as a pretext, and then when the economy gets a little better than the state to which they destroyed it, they say, "Hey, look, we're doing such a great job with the economy!"

    The risk factor varies. A healthy 70-year-old is in single digits, much less if fully vaccinated, for serious illness and perhaps death. Of course, many people that old have one or more risk factors.

    The risk of dying is very low for 20-year-olds and reasonably low for complications.

    The 20-40 age group are keeping the pandemic going by not getting vaccinated. Some people, older folks in particular, are holding back on spending.

    People who have already had Covid have better protection against the Delta variant of the pandemic coronavirus than two doses of the Pfizer vaccine.

    Good news huh.

    Yep. Antivaxxists refuse to receive the FDA Approved vaccines, but will gladly squirt horse dewormer in their mouths.

    This place will be comedy gold when antivaxxists who are lucky enough to survive their stays in the ICU are told by their medical insurance that they will not pay any portion of their medical bills. LOL

    You can't keep your story straight to save your LIFE!

    You start with "vaccine hesitancy" as your thread.

    Then, you bounce to one politician who didn't wear a mask, when I see nothing that makes me think YOU wear a mask.

    Then you earlier support the idea that the problem is immigration - which is just plain BS.

    Now, you want to suggest others who can actually THINK are the ones without credibility??

    Remember Trump's experiment with meat packers?

    Once the employees (and the whole cities) came down with COVID the businesses had to close.

    THAT is the antiVaxx plan.

    What I'd really like to know is YOUR reason for surrender.

    I mean, normally speaking people are willing to form a defense against a threat.

    Are you reluctant to post the data because it would reveal an alarmist reaction to an extremely low risk?

    Since vaccinated people are catching and spreading it, your last line is untrue.

    Since people hospitalized for Covid are now 95% unvaccinated and the 20-40 age group are the least vaccinated, it IS true that they are the ones who currently contribute most to the spreading of the virus.

    So what is the risk factor for healthy people?
