At this point we’re committed to covid killing tons of people forever, there is no shot at any kind of population immunity, it just ain’t happening. So I suppose enjoy dying more forever idiots. Don’t wanna get vaxed cuz its gonna give you a heart attack? Enjoy having more heart attacks idiots. I just can’t anymore.

ehhh prob not. You don’t screen for heart disease much in the 25-44 age group.
I mean, a football player got hit so hard his heart stopped and they blamed THAT on the vaccine, so.

Then they made up that the football player was literally dead.
lol I missed that. Did they cast an actor to begin playing him, or is it AI, or…?
You could barely see him in the suite through the snow. Something is fishy!
Now that he’s cavorting around at NFL honors, it’s gone straight down the memory hole. But of course not subtracted from the giant pile of fishy situations in their minds. Just like Hunter Brown.
The NBC piece that came out a week ago was very careful to lead with Covid>>>>vax in terms of heart issues.
Oh and the correlation with Covid cases starts well before the vax was available.
(Presuming that the 25-44 age group is not significantly impacted by lack of care access issues due to health system overload that could be a significant factor in olds)
But of course that doesn’t matter.
She has previously had Covid and is understood to be fully vaccinated and is said to be in “good spirits” and resting.
In England, latest data shows about 96% of people in Camilla’s 75-79-year-old age group are vaccinated, with 78.7% having their most recent vaccination three to six months ago.

Isn’t 400% of 0 still 0?

Sigh. Add me to the ranks of the twice infected (maybe even 3x if that mystery 48-hour fever with no other symptoms back in mid-March of 2020 was COVID, guess I’ll never know). Went out with a couple over the weekend that’s usually pretty careful, the wife calls us the next day to say she woke up feeling like shit and was already testing positive. Few days later we both get it.
I’m kinda having a speedrun version of my last infection and just working from home, my wife on the other hand is miserable, mostly just with the driest, sorest throat she’s ever had. She was the last one in the family to catch it, which is crazy as she’s been working in an urgent care throughout the pandemic (although obviously masking continuously at work).

Bad CEOing if he hasn’t learned you can just say “fuck you, no” without consequences.

I literally lined up at the first possible opportunity to get a needle in my arm, but I can kind of understand having some hesitation when the vaccines first rolled out. But at this point billions and billions of people have been vaccinated. These people need to ask themselves - how many people do I know who have been impacted by COVID, and how many by the vaccine?
It sounds like they are asking themselves that and anything bad that happens to anyone they know is automatically due to vaccine, so the evidence against vaccination accumulates rather quickly.

There’s so much antivax stuff online that it’s incredibly easy to fall into it.
Just like basically all forms of right-wing and/or conspiracy nonsense.
This a little r/relationship-advice about a couple divided over the vaccine.
Summary
The pandemic has turned my husband [M33] into a conspiracy theorist and I’m [F31] very worried.
In the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, my husband’s government job mandated vaccination. He chose not to get vaccinated and was later terminated. We were closing on our first home at this time, so we were left scrambling to qualify for a mortgage on my sole income, and finances were tight. This was also a very stressful time since my husband couldn’t enter establishments without a vaccine card so our options for socialization and decompression were limited, and some friends even stopped inviting us to gatherings because of his lack of vaccination. I know for sure he felt sad and isolated due to his stance, and this is when he turned to some online communities to find people who shared his beliefs.
I then started to notice his vernacular change - he would refer to vaccination as “poison”, use terms like “plandemic”, and repeat false information such as the vaccine as the cause of death for certain celebrities or athletes. He started to follow many right-winged social media pages (ex: Jordan Peterson, Rebel News etc.), and even joined a large Whatsapp group named “The Sheepless” which is a group of people against vaccination that circulate false articles and conspiracy theories in a chat.
Here’s the thing - I work in the medical field. I have 3 science degrees and a graduate level education. I worked throughout the thick of the pandemic and would come home burnt out after having Covid positive patients die on my shift from respiratory arrest after spending hours in PPE and watching their families suffer. However, as my husband got more and more into his newfound community, he started to question what I experienced firsthand in the hospital. He would tell me that he “did some research” and the hospitals are actually empty. His research entailed scrolling social media pages. He has yet to read just one scientific article in a peer reviewed journal about respiratory viruses or mRNA vaccines. He also started to challenge my scientific knowledge. He’d say things like the vaccine has “changed my DNA” and I should check to see if I can still get pregnant since the vaccine causes infertility. When I debunked his theories using actual literature, his response was the articles I read are funded by the government or they’re “the white man’s science”. Yes, we’re both POC.
His beliefs have now expanded into an overarching fear of government control. We’re Canadian so he believes Trudeau is trying to turn our country communist and implement a social credit system to limit “our rights and freedoms”. He’s become increasingly more radicalized, and has talked about moving to a rural area so we can farm and grow our own foods so when the government shuts down our ability to buy food in grocery stores, we’ll be “ready”. He talks about the World Economic Forum’s “master plan” to annihilate everyone’s finances by purposely causing inflation and all the “hidden files” about vaccine side effects that are being suppressed.
We’ve essentially had at least one weekly blow-up fight about his conspiracy theories over the last year. My fear is that we’ve grown incompatible due to the pandemic. He never once expressed anti-vaccine or even anti-government rhetoric until he was terminated from his job for not adhering to the policies. Now we’re wondering how we could possibly have children when our beliefs have diverged. He says he’d still be open for our kids to get the “tried and true” vaccinations, but he wouldn’t want them to get anything new. He also says he wouldn’t want to raise children in a place like Canada because our leader is tyrannical.
I think he has developed PTSD and maybe some sort of delusional disorder due to the trauma of losing his job. He’s done 2 sessions with a psychiatrist, but his beliefs remain stronger than ever. I don’t want to walk away, especially due to what I perceive to be mental illness, but I just don’t know how much more I can take of him undermining my knowledge.
I’ll take any suggestions at this point. Has anyone else gone through something similar?
Surprises POC and Canadian
Onion?
