Wow. What a deranged puss bag.

Who the **** goes in banks these days? Even before the pandemic it has probably been a good 10 yrs since I needed to go in the bank.

Yeah we all know you canceled your planned trip to the Capitol on 1-6 because your wife said so.

Not in my plans. Waste of time. No results for the effort.

I do, unfortunately.  We still have clients who send us checks, as well as non payment related checks (FedEx refunds, former employee insurance payments, etc).  The check scanner we had in the office stopped working and the bank will charge us to send us a scanner that works.  Rather than doing that, I bring all of the checks to a local branch every other week (about 100 checks a month).

Ugh that sucks. I hated going into banks. I have to pay my car payment with a check but then covid hit so they put in a drive through

I don’t mind going, mainly because it’s time I’m basically doing nothing but doing it on works time.  The annoying thing is that I work for a large company, so this getting a scanner shouldn’t be an issue.

I’d be annoyed if someone made me send them a check for a payment instead of offering an online payment way (unless it’s an individual).

What kind of an a-hole waits two weeks to cash a check!

Huh? You’re six times more likely to get myocarditis after covid than after the shot.

Either you and this guy are trying to be a trolls, or you losers have no idea on how to read a scientific article.

I mean for f's sake the first line in the article is 'The post-infection of COVID-19 includes a myriad of neurologic symptoms including neurodegeneration.'

In other words - get the shot so you don't have long term brain damage.

By Dec 2022, it's estimated that delta will have infected 90-95% of unvaccinated populations. If you're still unvaccinated, then basically the choice is to get the vaccine or get covid. That goes for any of your unvaccinated kids too. Even now, by the end of this current school year, most of the unvaccinated kids will have contracted delta. Whatever side effects you're concerned about with the vaccine are almost all worse with covid.

If you have an issue with Uncle Ted's interpretation of the study, take it up with him.

Not being able to understand the results of a peer reviewed study isn’t the flex you think it is.

This is basically what Fauci has been saying for the last three months.

Nah, I would rather take it up with the person that can't think for himself and decides to spread around Uncle Ted's garbage instead.

Vaccines Will Not Produce Worse Variants

https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/vaccines-will-not-produce-worse-variants

So one key way to cut down on the odds of a nasty mutant popping up is to just keep the virus from reproducing so much. Cut down on the number of people it infects. When it does infect people, cut down on the amount of time it spends reproducing inside the body. These countermeasures are exactly what a mass vaccination program does. Fewer people get infected in the first place, and when they do get infected, their disease course tends in the great majority of cases to be shorter and milder. A nasty variant is almost certainly going to come up by accident, so let's not have so many accidents going on constantly around the clock, around the world.

But back to the earlier discussion: what if the vaccines are still putting direct pressure on the virus? Aren't we selecting for exactly the things we fear the most? The answer to that is counterintuitive. Take a look, for example, at this preprint from July. The authors looked over 1.8 million coronavirus genomes from infections around the world, and compared that background data set to specific breakthrough infection sequences in vaccinated patients. What they find is that the genomic sequences from the breakthrough infection patients are significantly less diverse than what's seen in the wild. The authors believe that this shows that "COVID-19 vaccines are fundamentally restricting the evolutionary and antigenic escape pathways accessible to SARS-CoV-2", and that's the flip side of the above argument. You are putting pressure on the virus to escape the immune attack, but at the same time you are cutting sharply back on the pathways it can use to get there.

That's fantastic that we'll have achieved herd immunity by the end of 2022!
