I agree. The information is out there to be found, if one so chooses. Context matters too - however, most people don't give a shit about context, and only hear words. And, the words were damaging to the cause, in my opinion.

It's unfortunate.

I will not link anything. This thread is yours to own. I'm not going to poop in it.

I hear you 847. It would be super easy to post 10 video links in 10 minutes or less to prove your point of candidates claiming they wouldn’t get the vaccine, prior to the presidential election. 

You would have to have lived under a rock to not be aware of it as it was a main theme.

To your other point 847, context.  This is a headline today and a major publication in Michigan.  What were you saying about seasonality?

I’m going to take a wild but educated guess that the national media will be silent on this, of course.

When I referred to “ center stage” I was referring to the media. Not here. 
your a smart man- that is clear.  That’s how I know you understand exactly what I am referring to.

As far as policies go- there is nothing different in Florida policies that can be tied to a single death.
True. I'm saying the media wasn't going to be discussing Florida's case decreases ad nauseum for multiple reasons:

  • Political bias against the governor and the policies of Florida.
  • Because the shape of the rise and decline of cases (the two month spike) mirrored other states and wasn't remarkable.
  • Because their numbers--the magnitude of the Delta surge, not the shape--were terrible and didn't warrant discussion.


My point was that even if #1 wasn't true, it wouldn't be worth discussing.

I do appreciate the posters here who find useful information on the topic and post it, even if it's a bit off topic, the flu thing is fascinating to me.

I think we get a reasonable picture of reality by scanning a lot of different sources of information, but it takes effort, collective effort.

It's from a source called "Science.org" so we have no choice but to believe it!

The media might not be worth discussing, but trying to blame the media for your own bad decisions is a cop-out at best.

It's all about messaging GR. 

Many have gotten the Vax thinking they would not be required to wear a mask (CDC said so).

I figured it was pretty clear we'd need masks in confined spaces no matter what.  I've had to show my vaccine card once so far, and they are easily fabricated.
