Educating people on the fact that vaccines never have reactions past 3 months and that COVID is destroying overweight people might help but I have a feeling people won't listen anyway. Yeah, if I were a blimp like that guy, I'd certainly take my chances with the vaccine.
August 3, 20214 yr Reminder that dodging death or a gurney isn't the only objective with this thing... We thus postulate that, in people who have recovered from COVID-19, a chronic or permanent olfactory deficit could be prognostic for an increased likelihood of neurological sequelae or neurodegenerative disorders in the long term. The inflammatory pathways induced by SARS-CoV-2 in the nasal epithelium overlap substantially with inflammatory signalling described in subsets of patients with dementia. 55 , 101 An inflammatory stimulus from the nasal epithelium to the olfactory bulbs and connected brain regions might, therefore, accelerate pathological processes and progression of neurodegenerative disease. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laneur/article/PIIS1474-4422(21)00182-4/fulltext

I don't know when we stopped expecting our leaders to tell us hard truths. It's great that after Delta forced his hand he's starting to press more on vaccines, but waiting until things get as bad as they are isn't leading - it's leading from behind.

Needs the proactive Aussie approach that ishlibs in CVON lauded in this thread: Now that's what I call leadership!
August 3, 20214 yr 30 minutes ago, Kz! said: wtf canada? Can someone explain this? As always, you just need to read the full report. LINK If Canada decides to purchase every dose with every drugmaker they have the option to purchase, it will total over 400 million doses. But of course they won't do that. They only need about 80 million doses of two-shot vaccine to vaccinate the entire population, plus potentially some more for boosters. The reason they have the option to purchase more, is if the contract with Pfizer goes bust, they have the option to purchase more from Moderna to make up the lost doses, or from other vaccine makers, etc. Also, Canada can donate the extra doses they ordered to other countries.

I read headlines.

We've talked about this before in this thread, but if its one thing we as a society should learn from Covid its how important exercise is. I have an office job and wasn't moving around much anyway, but obviously when Covid hit, and I was working from home, I noticed how very little I was moving. I gained 15 pounds in the first 3-4 months of Covid. I started walking over my lunch breaks and that started taking the weight off. Now I jog 3 miles a day and the impact its had on my health has been nothing short of miraculous. My weight is down (lost all my Covid weight and then some), my BP is down, my resting heartrate is waaaay down (meaning my heart is working more efficently). This entire epidemic should be a teachable moment for us as Americans to start exercising and taking better care of ourselves.

I mean, I didn't miss a beat because I just stayed in my routine but not being able to have a real conversation about weight in this country has proven to be incredibly dangerous.

Just remember that CVONers come in all shapes and sizes, and this stuff could be upsetting to @VanHammersly.
