When people end up at this point, wtf do you even say to them as their therapist? mio dio
Obviously getting a shot right before an event isn't how vaccines are meant to work, and certainly some of the 70,000 people there were already vaccinated but I guarantee it wasn't 69,965 of them.His August 7th concert at Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium featured an on-site vaccination clinic presented by the stadium and city officials. Only 35 concert-goers opted to get vaccinated at the clinic, according to the Kansas City Health Department.
Yup, this guy made me think of the anti-fluoride Portlanders. and the folks who suggested I take fish oils instead of chemo.turnbullac wrote: Wed Aug 18, 2021 3:42 pmJeezus!

That's both fucking outrageous, and wholly unsurprising.penningtron wrote: Wed Aug 18, 2021 4:45 pm To be fair, that was after 5 concerts already and it's not like this thing was some big mystery 3 weeks ago. The Kansas City show was telling:

Yeah I hear both points for sure, and even a pitifully misguided effort is better than the thousands of people who still didn't bother.Frankie99 wrote: I don’t want to come on here and defend Garth fucking Brooks, but anyone willing to set up a vax site at their shows as a means to get people to get jabbed is good.

100% agreed. On two fronts: Usually those that bitch about the FDA are complaining about the lengthy approval process when a loved one is dying from cancer or a neurodegenerative disease and they don't meet the protocols for whatever trial study might benefit them. Suddenly the FDA can't move quickly enough on an approval. Oh, the irony. Secondly, these are the same fucking people that would otherwise take things far riskier prescribed to them: monoclonal antibodies for your psoriasis that could give you cancer? Sure, go ahead - I'm sick of itching and looking like a leper! Statins? No problem! Benzodiazepines? Sure, those will go great with a glass of wine after dinner! But a vaccine 20+ years in the making that over 300 million people have taken without any issues? No fucking way - I have rights!Frankie99 wrote: Thu Aug 19, 2021 9:52 am I don’t want to come on here and defend Garth fucking Brooks, but anyone willing to set up a vax site at their shows as a means to get people to get jabbed is good.

My comments regarding the FDA were not meant to imply that I think the FDA is bad. Re-reading my comments, I don’t know see how that came across, but nonetheless, my comments are directed at people saying “I’m not getting the shot because it’s not 100% approved.” My response to this sentiment is “Fuck you, you’re lying. Until now, you have never cared whether a drug was 100% authorized by the FDA, nor did you know there were processes for emergency approval. You can’t even explain to me what “off label” is, you’re just picking a data point to support a conclusion you’ve already made. When it’s approved, you’ll grab another dumb excuse from your bullshit idea buffet to point to as a reason not to use it, so again, fuck you for wasting my time.”
If someone wants to point to evidence that the vaccines do not work as designed, or that there are side effects that are worse than covid and it’s impacts, ok. Let’s chat. But if you’re just regurgitating garbage from the trashweb, then fuck you for thinking I haven’t heard and dismissed it before.
