    Yes it does, one can already have contracted the virus and show no signs of sickness. Again, testing helps.

    Yep, you don’t show signs of sickness when you are not sick.

    If you are inferring that cannot be sick if they have no symptoms is as wrong as possible.

    Would it still be meaningless if an infected Trump spread the virus to someone who got sick, maybe even died? We'll never know for sure, but testing positive, then going out among other people without a mask, means that he was willing to risk the health and lives of others. It's just one more indication of his narcissistic, uncaring, "it's all about me" nature.

    If you test positive, you risk spreading the virus. The point of this thread is that once again, we have proof that Trump cares only about Trump.

    So, protecting my life by getting vaccinated is succumbing to "the authoritarians?" Which ones?

    A positive test means that you are very likely contagious. Wouldn't it bother you if you were contagious? Or are you, like Trump, unaware or uncaring of the fact that you could make someone else sick?

    Seriously, I don't get your mindset on this. If I were to spread this virus to someone who got sick or even died as a result, I'd be devastated. Apparently that's just me.

    And most of the Trumpers in this thread too, since they obviously think that Trump's behavior in this episode is perfectly fine. If they at least, like @mudman, they could admit that Trump's behavior was wrong, but no. Even @mudman has to deflect to: Dems are uncaring too. As if this would excuse Trump's poor, selfish behavior.

    STUNNING!

    New book makes baseless claim hoping gullible people fall for it and buy it!

    False narratives for profits at its finest lol.

    And it didnt take long for a knee jerk reaction thread to be created by the left.

    Par for the course.

    Vaccinated you can spread the virus so being vaccinated doesn’t protect anyone. Best get tested once a week.

    We've been over this before, haven't we? I've provided links more than once on the fact that vaccinated people spread the virus at about 11% of the level that the unvaccinated do.

    Yes, and aside from that, vaxxed people are not infected at nearly the same rate as the unvaxxed. The assertion that it "doesn't work" because of the rare "breakthrough" infections is the claim of a child.
