Not Your Steppin' Stone

I'm having trouble deciphering the point of this rambling post.  It has been Trump who has been the strongest advocate of the vaccine.  He has correctly touted the vaccine as the ultimate solution to the pandemic while others - like Fauci - have falsely suggested that masks and social distancing were effective solutions.  They are clearly not as evidenced by the skyrocketing case numbers even in those states that have mandated masks and social distancing for months.  The only politicians who have cast doubt on taking the vaccine are dems like Kantala Harris and Cuomo.  Mostly suggesting it may be unsafe to advance their own political agendas.   If there was one thing that Trump was absolutely correct about, it was the vaccine.  It is Alice-in-Wonderland logic to suggest he is an impediment to anyone taking it.  And how about Fauci now advocating that kids go back to school?  Something Trump was vilified for suggesting months ago.   Fauci has played both sides against the middle.  He has support almost every position on every issue.  He is a publicity hound who has been wrong as often as he has been right.

The point of this post is to urge people to take the vaccine as soon as it is available to them. The risks of taking it outweigh the risks of not.

This was not a post about Trump although I mentioned him in passing.

Dr. Fauci will change his mind, as scientists do, with new information. It is a lot clearer now, then it was several months ago, that healthy children have a greatly reduced risk from COVID-19. And so, with the newest information, opening schools now seems relatively safe, when balanced against the risk of no school.

Joe's message is clear......take the f....ing when it becomes available. Stop whining about politics, the virus doesn’t care.

His "message" is far from clear, but yes take the vaccine just like Trump has said all along.  Don't let the dems like Harris or Cuomo convince you otherwise for political reasons.

'just like Trump has said all along'
>>> He immediately called it a hoax and suggested trying household cleaning products

That is false and has nothing to do with the issue of whether has advocated a vaccine.

I had it.  Was achy after work one day, had less than 1 degree of fever, felt sluggish for 36 hours, and that was it.  We've turned the country upside down and trashed civil liberties and our economy all to fight a cold-like virus that has a survival rate of 98%+ across all age groups.  If we have any freedoms left after this charade is over this will go down in history as the best example ever of global mass hysteria.

Sorry, OT.
