Of course the CEO of Pfizer wants the effectiveness to drop. Maybe they even designed it that way. If you only needed one vaccine for permanent immunity, what would happen to Pfizer's profits?

Not really. Just pointing out a fact and the hypocrisy. I would never want to ban anyone from access to healthcare even if I didn’t agree with their choices. Obesity is a risk factor for severe covid and is preventable.

Yeah, and the thing is they can't even SEE that blindingly bright logical booboo. Chances are they probably do see it, but want something to caterwaul about and want to identify yet another bogeyman. The white man bad thing is wearing a bit thin. So now we have the non-guinea pig bad thing going on.
When people are brainwashed into mob thinking, they do not see logical contradictions. And if you try to show them, they just get angrier. And angry people do not see logical contradictions. So don't expect any rational conversations with a brainwashed person.

It is always the liberal mantra:

We need gun control “for the children”
We need open borders “for the children”
We need free healthcare “for the children”

Last week the narrative on COVID changed from “saving Grandma” to “you need to get vaccinated for the children.”

Your children’s welfare, for which you implore everyone to get vaccinated, is not more important than MY welfare or that of MY children.

Sorry but that’s how it is. Don’t try to shame people or accuse them of lacking compassion or concern because we all have to worry about your kids.

But pressure should be put on the obese/morbidly obese, as their unhealthy lifestyles burden our healthcare system. More burden on the healthcare system leads to higher insurance rates, healthcare costs, etc.

Remember that picture of Loretta "Never Miss A Lunch" Lynch when she was "meeting" Bubba Clinton on the tarmac? She literally looked like 30 pounds of lard stuffed into a 10 pound bag. LoLy is -- conservatively -- 322 lbs of morbid obesity. You and I (the taxpayers) pay for the healthcare of these bloated bureaucrats.

Do you remember when Ted Kennedy was a thin, healthy guy? No, of course you don't, because he was a obese alcoholic the vast majority of his life. And Amy Klobuchar, bragging about eating salad with a fork? Sure, I believe that, if that salad was made up of Snicker bars and pepperoni pizza slices.

Since federal employees don't generate their own revenue, they should be subjected to "fitness coercion", much like corporate America is. If healthy is good for the goose, it's good for the gander. Stay off the dinner circuit, and stay on the treadmill.

I'm off to the gym.....

If it makes you feel better I will care significantly less about this once my babies have been vaccinated. Once that happens if you and others don’t want to get jabbed and then end up in the ICU later, more power to you. I just hope your health insurer wises up and charges you a massive premium to compensate for your recklessness.

It is your threat to everyone else that you come into contact with. Friends, family, strangers, EVERYONE!



If you don't want to be vaccinated and end up on a vent in some God forsaken ICU, big deal! But, you are taking a bed away from those you come into contact with and everyone else including pregnant mothers and babies,


Your choice is OK until it infringes upon others


Do them a favor and GO GET VACCINATED!

It’s never we need abortion for the children.

Just observing…

Seriously….. is that what you’re grasping at now??? Even after the FDA approval, the billions who have been safely vaccinated, etc. etc. Are you this meticulous about every other aspect of your life?
