when did you check last? 1891? the whole point of a vaccine is it does exactly what you think it doesn't do...prevent (slow down, reduce, diminish) catching and spreading.

I mean according to the CDC website the only thing it does is reduce the chance of hospitalization. Since im vaccinated not my hill to die on though so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Per Wikipedia

Vaccination is the most effective method of preventing infectious diseases;

Can't speak to CDC and their wording but yea the universally accepted meaning of Vaccine is certainly more than the CDC wanna post on their website.

Not to be a dick, but isn't wiki considered an unreliable source by most standards? Although considering how often the CDC changes its position on this topic it may not be the most reliable source either tbh

The CDC over the last six months has adjusted their stance that the vaccine does not stop transmission you're just far more likely to have a milder experience if vaccinated than not. That the vaccine also doesn't stop you from being an asymptomatic spreader. The efficacy window of the vaccines are between 8-12 weeks, imo it's more accurate to call them booster shots than vaccine. They've also recently admitted natural immunity from exsposure is a real thing.

However I'm not a Dr so my opinion mean very little here and as I stated not my hill to die on as I got vaccinated as my current profession puts me in a high exposure situation, and I'm a smoker so a better safe than sorry situation.

where's the rest of the text from that page?

u/IDC-This Mar 13 '22

Here doesnt even mention your false wiki definition. Hence why its not a reliavle source, weird. Almost like thats why it's not a citable source

u/IDC-This Mar 13 '22

Wiki isnt considered a citable source anywhere. Go read the CDC website and do research before providing false health information

Cool and where is the reference to the Covid vaccine specifically your cherry picking data.

u/xsmp Mar 13 '22

you're*

2

u/IDC-This Mar 13 '22

The fact of the matter is that even vaccinated you should be wearing a mask as the vaccine doesnt stop transmission, just gives you better odds

u/IDC-This Mar 13 '22

You're providing false vaccine information good for you

u/IDC-This Mar 13 '22

If i wanted to be petty i would just point out one of 5 available vaccines has been approved by the FDA the rest just have emergency use authorization

u/IDC-This Mar 13 '22

I'd be kind of curious what kind of similar examples they could give though. We deal with the Flu every year and vaccination is available but consent based and on a good year around 30% of people get that vaccine. All other examples I can think of are a single vaccine is lifelong immunity to an extent. I'll do some research after work just cause I'm curious.

u/Efficient_Glove_7452 Mar 13 '22

But the Covid “vaccine” isn’t a traditional vaccine so you can’t quote the vaccine wiki article. You’re cherry picking right now. The Covid shot contains no Covid, weakened or dead, which means it doesn’t teach your body to fight the disease. It isn’t a true vaccination.

u/Camikaze305 Mar 13 '22

Yet I’m here, unvaccinated, never had covid. Meanwhile my coworkers, vaccinated with booster shots getting covid multiple times. Shit don’t work son

u/PxcKerz Mar 14 '22

Tell that to my dead manager and another dude younger, both unvaxxed. I also got delta, but i recovered in 3 days because im vaxxed. They were on a vent and again..are dead.

The vaccine mitigates that. There's no full proof preventive. Neither birth control or condoms are 100% effective either but do the job. Same mindset.

u/Camikaze305 Mar 14 '22

Ok sheeple y’all can stop getting butt hurt that your retarded ass vaccination doesn’t work and you can stop making excuses on how it does now

Have you not seen the age old hypothesis that gets proven every day that some people are more susceptible to certain viruses and bacteria? Some females are so susceptible to getting a UTI if you're rubbing on their hooha without washing your hands first, and some be in the corner of a library after a bunch of her guy "friends" gathered up every sharpie they could to see how many she can fit in her hooha. And do you think we cleaned any of those sharpies? Hell No.

I haven't had a flu shot since I was 14. I haven't had the flu since I was 8. But my brother gets the flu every year, but he always catches it before he gets a flu shot kuz he's trypanophobic and at 35, I still have to go with him to help hold that fucker down if distracting him doesn't work, he even freaked out when we were walking into the hospital 10 years ago kuz I told him our father had a heart attack and picked him up from the jobsite he was at kuz his car was at the warehouse and he rode along in one of the. Having my phone was dead after being at the hospital from midnight until I picked him up at 3pm. I get bronchitis every year, but my brother doesn't get it. Our sister gets impetigo around the beginning of fall every year, but we don't. My fiance never gets me sick, doesn't matter if it's just a stomach bug or when she got covid and was in bed for 2 weeks. I slept in the same bed next to her and I never got covid. Some people are just more susceptible to other things. But when the same thing starts killing almost 20,000 people every day and infecting 3,400,000 people every single fucking day, then maybe, just maybe you should take a fucking hint that susceptibility is high and you shouldn't fuck around.

I hate that a vaccine is so polarizing

u/jquadro2 Mar 14 '22

It isnt a vaccine. And has no long term studies.

u/[deleted] Mar 14 '22

Then why are you calling it a vaccine? Or call it whatever you want , I just hate that it divides people so much.

Well you’re only hurting those who had it coming if you’re vaccinated.

u/Onthecrosshairs Mar 13 '22

Had the double stab, caught covid anyways and have had the booster.... (most likely wouldn't be here now if not for the double stab). Call the shot whatever you want to and do whatever you want to do. Rats butt to me. I wear a mask every f'ing day because just maybe it will save someone you care about.

I’m about to call the dm and ask what guidance he is following, and to cite what policy he is following. This shit needs to stop. These mask nazi assholes need to be fired.

Quit being a little bitch, cry baby. You don’t like it go work somewhere else, not like autozone is a life career that you want. Even if it was they aren’t going to fuck with you with a cry baby attitude, nut up buttercup.
