Milo and POTUS posted:I've got this mental image of someone snickering and they turn on him and ask him what's so funny and he starts criticizing his deck build Looking back now, it was pretty clear he was autistic and he had no goddamn business being in the army. Some recruiter saw his asvab score was to the moon and just kept throwing recruiter promises at him until he wound up in hell for 3 months. I mean, it was hilarious at the time when drills were hovering around him, yelling poo poo like, "Are you a magician? Can you make me disappear?" I hope that dude is okay. Never saw him after boot.

shame on an IGA posted:CDC putting the word out that all the covid vaccines have a rougher side effect profile than people are gonna be used to and everyone should plan to be down for a day or two with fever and flu symptoms after they get the jab Did you have a link to the actual CDC putting something out? This article is about doctors raising the issue with the CDC, not official guidance. For content: this years flu vaccine did, actually, do a number on me and it took a solid 2-3 days to get over it. Same for my wife and child. Not sure how this will be different

The vaccine isn't really for you, it's for all the high-risk people who can't get or haven't gotten vaccinated for one reason or another that you will spread the flu to. I get that a few instances of perceived unpleasant side effects are lovely, but writing off the flu vaccine entirely isn't a healthy response.

If you were all this woke about vaccines prior to 2020, seriously I commend you. It's not something I really considered or cared about up until this year. I've always had all my shots for the big stuff (small pox and rubella and whatever else), I figured the flu was just a take it or leave it deal do your thing kinda thing. I know a lot more about the history of the flu and vaccines and viruses in general now, and I agree it was selfish of me.

I was checking MMA blogs and Cody Garbrandt, former UFC Bantamweight champion, had a story about getting it in August and still having major issues. He has had vertigo, pneumonia, multiple blood clots, and brain fog continuously since. Dudes a professional athlete under the age of 30 and it hosed him up to the point where he can’t train after 3 months.

Before my dad went on the vent, he remembers seeing 7 different people, including people he knew, put in bodybags. Dozens more died while he was in the ICU and he somehow pulled through.

He still complains of the brain fog and random fatigue. I saw him the week before he showed symptoms and some how my wife, children, and I didn’t get it.

Each year in my life science class, I tell everyone to STFU and pay attention to every word I say when I teach vaccines because unlike mitosis or even natural selection, it's the most important thing I teach all year for every single person in the class.

The only real issues I had were ridiculous exhaustion (walking 10 feet to the bathroom? Better sit down to piss) and a terrible migraine that lasted 6 days. An unproductive cough isn't out of the normal, so it was crappy, but I am lucky.

Thwomp posted:My understanding was that’s not due to poor vaccination rates but because the flu mutates like crazy and we couldn’t possibly vaccinate against it quickly enough to compensate. Yes, the vaccine only has certain strains, but for the most part we do have the same sort of protections as herd immunity with a well vaccinated populace against the flu.
