[Merged] How About Some Really Great News?
So, while y'all are bitching about Trump (WGAF) and Biden (WGAF), Pfizer and BioNTech have announced today that a Covid Vaccine they have developed is MORE THAN 90% EFFECTIVE.
The Dow has soared 1100 points to a new record. Quote:

And in the latest poll only ~40% of Americans say they'll get it.

I'm not paying attention to polls. The whole system of polls are faulty. I'm pretty sure anyone who really needs a vaccine will get it. And anyway, only 60% of Americans got a regular flu vaccine in 2018-2019 and there was plenty to go around. So even if 50% of the people get the vaccine, the idea is to stop the spread.

That doesn't matter. If the vaccine is truly 90% effective (I have my doubts), and the government makes it free and widely available, all shut downs and mask wearing should stop within a few weeks. (but we all know they probably won't)

They forced the Anthrax vaccine on us and nobody protested. Why should you be special?

Seriously, the mask mandates won't go away any time soon unfortunately. Porous cloth masks are magic and badly needed, until you sit down at a table in a restaurant, at which point you're magically protected by the table or something. |

How many did you get? My grand total was 3 or 4. Can't remember. And, I'm sure it is as healthy for ya a a f'n apple. The .gov would NEVER give us anything that might really mess us up..would they?

Anyone who listened to Trump and not the fake news, or Faucci, already knew this. Weird how this bombshell breakthrough came out JUST IN TIME for the election to be over. Why I remember just a week ago when people were saying this wasn't going to happen any time soon, because Orange Man's Warp Speed project was a failure.
What are the odds? |

My Grandfather told me that he became allergic to strawberries during his stint in the US Army shortly after receiving all of the Inoculations prior to shipping out for Europe. (WW2, 332nd Engineers)

2, I think. I was also told that I had no choice on giving up my DNA. I avoided it until they threatened me with NJP.
