Okay I see. I wonder if since its under EUA if FDA continues to collect data and approve it at some point.
in 10 years time they will. I very much doubt this so-called Vax will go even 2 years. They'll "magically" stop issuing it since it doesn't actually work, or there is no more virus threat. The study will be to see if there are traceable results leading to infertility or rise in lethal AI triggered as a result. We've pulled vax in the past, you know. Because they were dangerous.
Do you know if the upcoming Johnson and Johnson vaccine will be EUA as well?
once you break your own very clear rules to EUA, the 2nd time is easier. Just like killing in the name of the Queen. Just ask 007. "Yes... significantly"

Where he is going, the leadership is not "pushing it". This is a different situation from let's say anthrax, where it was mandatory if you were going to be in certain places.
100%. To clear things up, when i say leadership, i mean at my current job.

The requirements where i am going are different than my current local situation.

Is the Army still not doing PT tests? I saw something a few months ago that they were canceled until 2022 or something like that. Pretty crazy lol. I wonder how that is being handled.
ACFT was suspended until 2022.

I'm a pin cushion lately.

Job requirements:
Flu shot every year
TB test every year
Shingles shot in a November, Booster tomorrow (ouch!)
Covid shot 3weeks ago, 2nd shot on 2/8.

I'm a teacher in a congregate setting (shelter), so I tick many boxes.

No issues ever with flu or TB shots (10 years)
Shingles hurt like hell, like a gunshot to the arm.
all good on covid so far.

Also, why does covid auto correct to civic??????

The test has changed and is being evaluated; however, tests are still being administered but no negative consequences should you fail. With that in mind, the new test exhibited an extremely high failure rate from past "studs" if you know what I mean. Oh and PT is still being conducted.
I see. Not surprised that it has a high failure rate, it looks way harder and than the old one lol. We had something very similar, it was our Battalion PT test. Basically the same thing, except different events and more running and rope climbing. We had to be in full kit too (not sure if the new one requires it). The standard APFT was way easier lol, just had to haul ass on the run.

No shingles shot yet, but I don’t recommend the anthrax shots, those were like being set on fire.
My autocorrect tries to change covid to "the Rona”.

So is the survival rate still over 99% or no?
No, currently it is 97.3% its has gone down. The survival rate goes down even more when you sort it by age-group and race/ethnicity. The survival rate also changes with the country, it isn't really a useful metric and its misleading.

The latest Johns Hopkins numbers show a 1.7% fatality rate. Out of a probable 98% chance that I won’t even contract it. So without being elderly and having serious underlying medical issues, I’m more likely to die by some idiot texting and driving.

Seems like you do not understand how a vaccine works which is fine, it isn't common knowledge.

I don’t need a vaccine for something that isn’t going to affect me. If I catch it and get a sniffle or two, I’ll continue to go about my business as usual. The fear mongering is better suited on other people.

Yes, you are right. You might get a sniffle or two. Or you might get permanent lung damage, develop a heart disease or just die like the hundreds of thousands.

Maybe you had it a few weeks or months ago. Maybe you are one of the lucky ones. Or maybe you get it and be like my buddy (2 miles under 13min, over 70 PU and SU under 2min, around 10% BF) that could barely walk 10 steps w/o getting fatigue, lost taste and smell. Took him almost a month to recover.

Or like my other buddy. 5 days in the ICU at the VA hospital because he couldnt breathe on his own. Or maybe just like me, just body soreness and mild fatigue but nothing serious.

3 people with really good fitness condition with 3 different outcomes. Being young, fit or w/o any underlying medical issues doesnt guarantee its gonna be just a sniffle.

No point in arguing with this guy, his immune system is perfect. This dude's antibodies make COVID run away in fear. Nothing can stop this man. I need to get on his level 🤣
