My entire point by drawing a parallel to police brutality against minorities is that it wasn't justified. This kind of crap happens everyday to black kids, but tools like Kz and Mike always fall back to "play stupid games, win stupid prizes". Funny how they're singing such a different tune now though. You're free to post instances of perceived police brutality and we can discuss them individually. Saying "this stuff happens everyday to black kids" and then making up other poster's hypothetical reactions to hypothetical situations makes you look pathetic and small.

And frankly, if I had to guess, I'd say you're the least racist person in CVON. By a lot. Yes, we have. And you consistently never cite specific examples and then speak in vague generalities like this. Because you have nothing. And you're also pathetic and small.

August 18, 20215 yr Doctors in Belgium are advising against intense physical activity after vaccination. Quote In the wake of three rare cardiac complications in young athletes who had recently been vaccinated against the coronavirus, doctors have strongly advised against intensive physical activity soon after receiving a vaccine dose. The riders, all from the Acrog-Tormans Balen cycling club, were aged between 15 and 17 years old and developed chest pain during competitions or training a few days after being vaccinated. "It is impossible to demonstrate a direct link between the vaccine and these heart problems. That is in progress,” cardiologist Guido Claessen (UZ Leuven) told De Morgen. All teenage boys were fit and healthy and none had experienced noticeable after-effects from the vaccine before engaging in intensive physical effort. No similar incidents have been reported among vaccinated riders in older age groups. According to Kris Van der Mieren, a doctor at the Belgian Cycling Federation, the Federal Agency for Medicines and Health Products did put out a letter warning of the risks of inflammation of the heart as a result of the two mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna. "It says that in very rare cases myocarditis and pericarditis (inflammations or swellings in the heart) can occur in the fourteen days after vaccination. And more often after a second dose and in young, athletic men,” he said. ‘Take it easy’ Doctors want to avoid creating panic among young athletes and have stressed that there is "no need to panic, but we recommend taking it easy for at least one week after receiving a vaccine dose.” As a result of these alarming incidents, the Acrog-Tormans Balenteam has recently issued a new rule that prohibits riders from racing immediately after being vaccinated, regardless of how well they feel. Professional athletes in other sports have been reluctant to get vaccinated, citing performance concerns. In tennis, world number three Stefanos Tsitsipas announced that he would not get the vaccine unless the ATP, which governs men’s professional tennis competitions, made it mandatory. However, despite a few rare cases of cardiac problems arising soon after vaccination, health experts are stressing that the benefits of getting vaccinated continue to outweigh the risks. https://www.brusselstimes.com/belgium/181663/belgium-could-be-nearing-end-of-covid-crisis-management-vandenbroucke-says/ Data on cardiac issues in America both pre and post vaccine is something I'd like to see.

Yeah, really dumb that someone who got called racist for posting a video that was completely on topic for the thread would want to defend himself. Just totally out of bounds.
August 18, 20215 yr from some of the crazies in my school district: "We can be the ones who storm the beaches of Normandy.... " by fighting against mask policies for kids too young to be vaccinated. yeah. you're a real patriot.

August 18, 20215 yr I didn't see proof, but I am sure there is at least some truth to this. I guess an aide was talking to an assistant to a prominent GOP member and they said DeSantis, Abbott and others are destroying their states so they don't have to give a win to Biden and his vaccine efforts.
August 18, 20215 yr Kz is a weirdo loser for sure, but I cannot get behind bashing him for going to a Hanson concert with his wife if she loves Hanson. If anything I think it is one of the likely few redeeming qualities I've found in Kz. The willingness to sit through that to support your wife, that is admirable.
August 18, 20215 yr What’s safe to do during summer’s Covid surge? STAT asked public health experts about their own plans Of the questions, only one earned a unanimous response: "Would you send your unvaccinated child to school without a mask?” "Lord, no,” Paul Offit, a pediatric infectious disease specialist at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, replied. "NO!!! As a parent and a pediatrician, that is a terrible idea,” wrote Andrew Pavia, chief of pediatric infectious diseases at the University of Utah. None of 27 people who answered this question expressed a willingness to send an unvaccinated child to school without a mask. Carlos del Rio, a professor of epidemiology and global health at the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University, said he’d withdraw an unvaccinated child from a school if it didn’t have a mask mandate. Children under the age of 12 cannot yet be vaccinated as none of the vaccines has been authorized for use in this age group. The other school-related question — "Would you send your vaccinated teen to school without a mask?” — drew almost as fervent a response, with 24 of 26 saying no. https://www.statnews.com/2021/08/17/whats-safe-to-do-during-summers-covid-surge-stat-asked-public-health-experts-about-their-own-plans/ It's an interesting article, but I also agree with the one guy quoted below that guidance born from over-generalization is not ideal right now when the regional disparities for vaccine compliance and levels of community spread are larger than they've ever been. But in other ways, responses diverged. And at least one expert suggested that geography really does matter when it comes to his own comfort level. Naor Bar-Zeev, a statistical epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, declined to respond to all but one of the questions, saying answers are highly dependent on the circumstances of a place. "In a place where most people are unvaccinated, or otherwise at high risk, and where there is active transmission, I should act more conservatively and with greater caution, even though I am protected from disease,” he said. "In a place where most people are vaccinated, and there is low transmission, one can be more permissive.”
