Imagine saying no to the advice of doctors to follow the advice of a comedian, UFC commentator and Podcast HOST.

Social media has just given the idiots a forum to be idiots.

It's a crazy way of life down south. You know I never really thought of it before but is the vaxx free in the USA? If not.. there's a huge reason why ppl would use cheaper more dangerous options. Quite simply they can't afford it. I'm curious..  is it free in the USA? If so how much per dose? 

Sad part about Rogan is he's lying. He doesn't have covid.  He will say the horse drug cured him and then ppl will take it and die. He's worse than Trump who had recently been telling ppl to get vaxxed and say he did also 

[Goalie]

Turns out it's free but also turns out a large percentage of Americans don't know that.  I suppose tho.. ppl are hypocrites down there telling ppl to not follow the sheep but then listening to idiots like Rogan. I suppose it likely comes down to a lack of education down south

They know it's free. They're just being obtuse. But, these geniuses know more than scientists do, so let them all get Covid and see what happens.

I'm at that point here. I'm vaxxed but I know ppl who aren't and there reasons don't make sense so now I just tell them good luck if you get it cuz you're gonna need it.

There was a time when Rogans podcast could be interesting.  Then he slid well off into the deep end. Interestingly it seemed to coincide with his move to Texas.

Quote

Researchers at King’s College London analysed data from participants logging their symptoms, tests and vaccines on the UK ZOE COVID Symptom Study app between 8th December 2020 and 4 July 2021, including 1,240,009 (first dose) and 971,504 (second dose) vaccinated UK adults. The research team assessed a range of factors, including age, frailty and areas of deprivation and compared that with post-vaccination infection.

The study, published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases, found that in the unlikely event of catching COVID-19 after being double vaccinated, the risk of Long COVID was reduced by almost half. There were also fewer hospitalisations (73% less likely) and lower burden of acute symptoms (31% less likely) among those fully vaccinated. The nature of the most common symptoms were similar to unvaccinated adults – e.g. anosmia,(loss of smell) cough, fever, headaches, and fatigue. All these symptoms were milder and less frequently reported by people who were vaccinated, and they were half as likely to get multiple symptoms in the first week of illness. Sneezing was the only symptom which was more commonly reported in vaccinated people with COVID-19.

It's almost as if vaccines work or something...

Years of steroids have finally started to eat away at Rogan's brain, guy is unbearable on the few UFC broadcasts he does and is just another money making loon.

Fox News host complains vaccinated are 'otherizing' anti-vaxxers: 'Next step' is putting unvaccinated into camps'
   
The anti-vaxx movement continues to co-opt language used by liberals, declaring "my body, my choice" – not when it comes to abortion but to vaccines.

Now they're taking that one step further, imposing victimization status on those who refuse to get vaccinated against the deadly coronavirus that has killed at least 650,000 Americans and is transmissible by just breathing.

Fox News personality Will Cain, who co-hosts the weekend version of "Fox & Friends," on Wednesday's episode of "The Five" told Geraldo Rivera that Americans who are vaccinated are "otherizing" the unvaccinated, as Media Matters reports. "Otherizing" is a term used to describe how white majorities dehumanize minorities, often immigrants, as "others."

Continuing the anti-immigrant framing, Cain declared, "We're veering dangerously close to exterminationist language."

"Exterminationism" is exactly what it sounds like: genocide, especially of ethnic minorities.

The anti-vaxxers are now pretending their lives are being threatened, not by a deadly virus, but by the socially-responsible who chose to get vaccinated to protect themselves, their loved ones, neighbors, and co-workers.

Finally, Cain goes even further, walking a very close line to horrific historic events, either like the Japanese internment camps the U.S. created during World War II, or the camps Hitler where sent Jews to their deaths during the Holocaust.

"We're veering dangerously close to exterminationist language. Otherizing –" Cain told Rivera.

"Exterminationist?" Rivera responded.

"Absolutely," Cain claimed. "That's the next step. Putting the unvaccinated into someplace else, camps. Whatever it may be."

It's going to keep happening until we vaccinate the poorest countries.

What a messed up world in which we live where privileged people can have the luxury to choose not to get vaccinated for whatever misguided or ignorant reason while millions of non-privileged people don't even have the option.

Not surprisingly the majority of cases are from the areas with the least vaxx rate. It's crazy when Winnipeg where most the population lives has less than half of the active cases 

[rebusrankin]

Southern with 41% of the cases while they have 15% of the population, 35% of the cases in Winnipeg but 63% of the population. How do you say vaccines work without saying vaccines work?
