1 FROM EACH POLITICAL PARTY HUH, THAT’S FUNNY & MORE PROOF THAT CORONA DON’T DISCRIMINATE & HAS NO FAVORITE POLITICAL PARTYđđ đ€Ł
@King Charles â you should come up with your own sayings.
@brandon lehmann So first, your bs stats donât count in rational discussion; and second, there are a lot of reasons for lower vax rates in people of color, like being more likely to be poor so face obstacles getting to a vaccine site, to live in underserved areas, to be aware of the racism in American healthcare so have a good reason to be hesitant. Itâs the people who insist on being maliciously ignorant that make responsible people mad.
@King Charles â why do you come on your so called fake news channels and comment. Duhhhhhh cnn stays rent free in your head.
@King Charles â
Why donât you stop wasting time on YouTube and go help your mom sheâs working that corner real hard to put food on the table.
Well it factually likes republicans the most because theyâre the highest unvaccinated demographic in the country. But yes, covid will not leave you alone just because you voted for Obama. đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
There is a way to know where or how they may have gotten it, it’s called contact tracing. No worries for them though they will get the best care the US has to offer as Senators.
@Andrew Bobkoski to be safe thatâs why!
@Andrew Bobkoski itâs proven that Covid causes long term problems. So taking the vaccine is a very logical decision to make!
@Macguy what do ICU beds do anyhow? Has anyone asked? NY times a year ago had front page article about nurse who “had” covid (whatever that means) and she was saying the last place she wanted to go was the hospital and preferred home treatment. The article went on to say that her thinking was becoming the “new approach” endorsed by the majority of scientists. Now I guess they changed their midn?
And a few months before that front page article last summer , there was another front page one that cited a peer-reviewed New England Jouranl of Med study that conclusively found that ventillators do more harm than good.
Google the two articles –both front page NY Times.
I guess now they have new aticles?
Similar to Biden a few mnths ago when he said Florida’s decision to drop masks was ‘neanderthal’ and then 3 weeks later when the CDC adopted the same decision to no longer advise masks as require, they said “the science had evolved”–from neanderthal to Fauci in 3 weeks which is a fast-paced evolution scientifically speaking.
Don’t mind me! Academic snob with multiple grad degrees in the sciences so I can not expect to understand the primitive thought process of a type like Dr fauci who has NO degrees in science. None, he has a shtty MD. SO does my vet in Beverly Hills
Scam of the century

@John Chiu exactly!
They have incredible health insuranceâŠ. they will be fine.
I honestly donât get it? Why are people surprised? Vaccines donât stop you from catching Covid. They stop you from getting really sick, maybe dying, or just getting scarred lungs or organ failure. They can be grateful they were vaccinated. Most vaccinated people wonât know, unless they get tested, that they have Covid. I just hope people learn how important vaccination is?
there’s only so much a hospital/dr can do for them and it doesnt matter what insurance they have. if its bad enough of a case they can possibly die. its not like just because they have the best insurance in the nation that they will get some miracle cure. if its bad enough they will be put on a respirator and even then they may still die. I’m not saying that’s what will happen but I’m saying that their insurance won’t save them if its a bad enough case. so your comment is pretty damn ridiculous!
@AlexxxPerales i should of read comments before i made my comment. you hit the nail on the head. i just said the exact same thing in my comment above. the best health insurance in the world isn’t going to save you if you get a bad enough case and just like we both said, its not like just because they have the best possible health care that they will get “the cure”. cheers
@Ash Roskell Unfortunately many people don’t understand this. We need someone to replace Fauci who will stress this and who the anti-vaxers might listen to. ALthough many anti-vaxers are so ignorant, they are beyond help
@Hate evil I am absolutely positive, we live in a civilized country that has universal health care and therefore regular check ups, and regular bloodwork is done as to detect and prevent future health risks it’s called preventative health care and it saves people from future health risks, so you implications that there could be genetic underlying conditions is mute.
Oh well,I’m sure they will get the best medications available..
@Lee C Medical Professional 30 years tell me about monoclonal antibody treatment antibody- dependency and increase risk of reinfection
@rod williams Sorry, no idea! Doesn’t mean I don’t understand the premise behind vaccines. What can you tell me about these new treatments? I’d love to learn.
@Lee C check out research on densi and zika virus vaccines mRNA and monoclonal antibody treatment about 4 years old also papers from 2 years ago
@rod williams I promise, I will. But I’m working in the am, so it will be tomorrow. Have a good night.
@Douglas Price it means you get mild symptoms and not have to be on a ventilator and risk serious illness. Contraception isn’t 100% effective against pregnancy and seat belts don’t 100% eradicate vehicle deaths. We use th anyway because they reduce the risk of worse results substantially. Hope this simple explanation helps.
Its inevitable. They have to do their jobs, which includes being around others.
Let me know what they’ve accomplished. NOTHING. More like luncheons, parties, vacations – and lies, lies, lies.
Sounds like the start of a joke⊠âA Democrat, an Independent, and a Republican walked into a roomâŠâ Only it isnât at all funny.
I’m laughing
@Jay Mas people are not taking it though
Your right …… its hilarious
@david cunningham uh yes they are. Ones that dont like being forced fed by fake news and mandates wont take it. Thats not freedom that the same garbage china does.
False, it is hilarious
With all the controversy surrounding the COVID Virus, people don’t know what to believe including these announcements. The pandemic is not COVID but the ignorance and stupidity of many people.
@JW
That is where you have failed and will continue to fail.
@Ordinary Mo blo me mo
You know what is both ignorant and stupid? The notion that, given the –> FACT <-- that these three senators were fully vaccinated and still contracted the disease, that the solution to keep this from happening more often is to vaccinate more people???!?!??!?!?! Now I know we haven't taught, well basically anything, in the public school system in the past 30 years, even the uneducated should understand that increasing the penetration of an ineffectual remedy is not going to reduce the problem... Don't they?
@JW
Why? Are you gay? I know that I’m not.
@JW classic moronic response.
âIt was a mostly peaceful SARS-CoV-2 infectionâ
Except for local town meetings where it is lunatics on parade.
When you’re sweating all over each other,expect that.
Haha gross
You must know a lot about that donât youđ€Łđđ»
Don’t they social distance any more?
@Ordinary Mo đ
double eww.
I guess Corona doesn’t discriminate.. How many recesses they are getting. ? I hardly get 2 weeks of vacation and also I am made feel guilty for taking it.. I wish I was a Senator..
@MLBson09 10 days a year , you must be joking
@Becks Bolero every thing in the USA that is wrong right now is the fault of the socialist liberal party
@muriel odette how long have you ever held down a Job?? I’ll take a guess NEVER..
@Pumla Nonti 10 days a year is the most common amount of vacation time given in the US.
@MLBson09 and how many days is sick leave a year??
They have the best healthcare they can afford. Pretty sure they ainât dying.
@Stephen Harrison not.
@BunnyChik did you get it from having your head up obamas! Sorry couldnât resist!
@muriel odette They pay taxes just like you do, more Iâm sure because they make more money.
@Doug Buse then why the actual f*** is this even a news story? I mean for the love of god can we possibly stop with news stories like this one?
Correction: They have the best health care OUR TAX MONEY can afford.
Strange that there seems to be implication of failure of the vaccince. The vaccine is primarily tested against getting severe disease, which is very likely with people this age. The fact that none of them did get very sick is a win.
@Charles Klempner The main functions of vaccines is to prevent death and severe/critical cases and the vaccines are doing just this. Almost everyone dying from Covid is unvaccinated
@a s It’s a guessing game at this point, but the fact that MERS and SARS went away and they are the closest virus’s to Covid that we’ve had; makes me hopeful we can eliminate covid. It’s a real problem the number of really ignorant Americans we have who are believing the untruths of social media. So we’ll see how this goes. India has seen a 90% reduction of new cases this past week compared to 2 months ago, so Delta is running it course there and should do the same here. Unfortunately it might get worse before it gets better
@a s that stat is inaccurate.
@tishwitch Oh? How so?
Therapeutics work also.
She/he had it right…when she/he said âsinnerâ….in lieu of âsenatorâ….lol
She/he? Who?
How about “they/them”
What are you trying to say?
Wear a mask đ· wash your hands.
Don’t get complacent.
i thought everyone is a sinner
Monique Engleman. How about you let her/him speak for herself/himself?
“Three U.S. senators receive a bonus”
Lol. Probably the truth.
Hazard pay đ€Ł
I clicked on this video just to comment âwho caresâŠâ
Nobody cares why you’re here.
Wow I wonder if this means that itâs important to wear masks even if youâre vaccinated
It would probably help if GOP senators would get the vaccine. Then the whole mask thing would be a mute point.
But a bunch of white men in diapers + one psycho blonde are crying brown shirts in the face of science. So here we are!
You can still get covid just not as badly as if you werenât vaccinated. Also maybe the vaccine is wearing off
I can’t help but laugh, let’s see, what’s coming out in the next couple of weeks? đ€
Instead of the booster, can we get vaccinated by another version of the vaccine (moderna, pyser, J&J)?
it just blows my mind that the senate doesn’t have a mask mandate considering they are all in close proximity to each other for long periods of time.
