I hope all works out well for you. As for me. I am happy and healthy. And have survived COVID19 earlier this year. BTW where did you get your medical degree from?
Hello; In your particular case and with respect to one particular post you did not address the point I made about the mask information being anecdotal evidence. I do not yet know if you cannot refute this, but you clearly did not and have not yet done so. That I have to spell it out again even after you quoted me may be telling.
Dude, WTF? Really? It was in my post you supposedly read.
And I'm glad you recovered. Hopefully you don't have any persistent effects...no lingering shortness of breath, decreased exercise tolerance, fatigue etc.
Easy on him Tommy Devito..no need to pop the trunk and start stabbin
Hello; Point being in a number of past posts where "real world" examples were used you, several times, made comments about them being anecdotal and dismissed those for being anecdotal. So it appears anecdotal evidence you favor is fine and anecdotal evidence you do not favor is bad.
I am well with no lingering effects. Than you for your concern. Speaking of variants. Every year influenza goes around. Sometimes they get the vaccine right and it works. Other times not. My PCP and I had that talk several years ago. Two years in a row I received the flu shot. Later in the season I developed the flu. He said the vaccine mix missed it both years. So with variants the efficacy of the vaccine declines.
You don’t know the meaning of the term. Wow. Observational and epidemiological studies are by definition not anecdotal.
In terms of vaccines for the Influenza and COVID-like illnesses (going forward). It's a game of likelihood and predictions.
The long term health effects of the COVID19 vaccine are unproven. There is a 99.8% survival rate for this flu. With the majority of the 0.2% of the fatalities having comorbidities that increase risk of death. The odds are on my side without the vaccine. The odds for future health issues for the COVID19 vaccine are unknown. I'm gonna let you BETAS go first.
Hello; Gathering information from a single airplane flight where the variables are not under rigorous control fits. I taught the scientific method for many years so have some idea of what it takes to set up a proper experiment. The information gathered from that particular flight can be a good start toward forming an hypothesis. To be of real value one variable at a time needs to be tested in a controlled environment so the hypothesis can be tested. After running the experiment in controlled conditions the hypothesis is confirmed or refuted.
Given that this virus has an exponential spread, seeing “the same rate of infections” is actually a win.
Hello; as one of the beta testers I do get your point. I did and do understand the vaccine is an unknown in terms of risk down the road. The term "safe" ought to be understood within the context that the companies making the vaccines were given liability immunity ( legal immunity). That means I cannot sue them or seek compensation for any side effects which may come along down the road from taking their vaccine. If some such bad outcome comes along it will be my tough luck. I, at least, understood this to be the case before I let them jab me. Fingers are crossed.
