    1. @wenwei su So you are comparing this to smallpox? You are saying people don’t have a reason to be skeptical of the vaccination industry, just be trusting?

    2. @Christopher Jones We shouldnt have complied with lockdowns when mortality rates for those infected are so low. You can go on and on about outlier cases of healthy people dying. They are outliers. If a doctor told you your chances of survival with lets say a skin infection is 99.5% with doing absolutely nothing would you still panic? Yes if the 0.05% mortality numbers are sent to your email every day, and with constant reminders of being safe.

    3. @Georgia Bulldogs my exact sentiments! Let the scared stay home. Or we can watch the poor fools drive alone in a car wearing the silly mask. I like to tell Branch Covidians that I bathe in all variants of Covid and wipe my bottom with masks.

    1. @T Bear you’re so brainwashed if you actually think that. He inherited plummeting unemployment, took out loans from china to pay for his tax cuts (much of which for people who don’t need them), let china control dialogue in many international orgs, etc. Trump did do some good don’t get me wrong, but best president? Gtfoutta here

  1. Was the power ever cut in Fargo? You never followed up on that one. I’m sure this story has much more veracity… 😂

    1. So what Jefferson was saying was ‘Hey! You know, we left this England place because it was bogus. So if we don’t get some cool rules ourselves, pronto, we’ll just be bogus too.’ Yeah?

    2. @David M Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he’s got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.

    1. You make the rational antivaxxers look bad. We base our opinions on statistics, not on ego. statistically my chances of survival is simply too high to warrant a vaccine.

    2. @J Lee yes I’ll admit I have a lot of ego, but to take a test that has the same results if I rolled the dice, doesn’t make much sense to me. TROLL!!!!

  2. “Let’s just try fear”

    “In THIS house we believe science is REAL!” 🍼👶

    1. @Trump Lost LOL The science of math and statistics shows covid is no serious threat.
      According to the CDC, only 6% of all deaths had ONLY covid. The other 94% had covid + “an average of 4.0 additional condition or CAUSES per death. Let’s do the math real quick… I know, I know… “math is hard yall”.

      Total cases = 33.7 million
      Total deaths = 605,000

      6% of 605,000 = 36,300 (died form ONLY covid)
      36,300 = 0.1077% (0.11%)

      94% of 605,000 = 568,700 (deaths with covid + an average of 4 serious health conditions)
      568,700 = 1.6875% of the 33.7 million total cases (1.69%)

      So, the survival rates are:
      99.89% for those with only covid
      98.31% for those with covid + an average of 4 serious health conditions.

    2. The same people who say men can be women and women can be men, everyone can be a “birthing person”, and there are 84 genders out there, because….science

    1. I think it is known that Gates wants to get rid of the brown and black, that’s why you see them wearing masks outside!

  3. t’s very difficult to determine the truth today with the majority of media outlets selectively reporting or flat-out lying. I understand why many people weighed the risk and chose NOT to get vaccinated. That is their choice and their risk.

    1. Nice try cowboy but your sad attempt at sounding like a reasonable man won’t work over here. You see, the people watching the MSNBC channel are
      Educated and don’t have any trouble determining the truth.
      Saddle up and git on back to FOX.
      🐎

    2. @Mister K It’s your life. Here’s the original creator of mRNA vaccines speaking out about them. ‘Educated.’ HAHAHAHA!
      “Dr. Robert Malone, creator of mRNA vaccine technology, said the COVID vaccine lipid nanoparticles — which tell the body to produce the spike protein — leave the injection site and accumulate in organs and tissues.
      According to the data in the Japanese study, lipid nanoparticles were found in the whole blood circulating throughout the body within four hours, and then settled in large concentrations in the ovaries, bone marrow and lymph nodes.
      Malone said there needed to be monitoring of vaccine recipients for leukemia and lymphomas as there were concentrations of lipid nanoparticles in the bone marrow and lymph nodes. But those signals often don’t show up for six months to three or nine years down the road, he said.”

  4. The jab is extremely effective in giving your body INSTRUCTIONS to PRODUCE something that doesn’t belong in it.

    1. >something that doesn’t belong in it
      You are absolutely correct. The body then RESPONDS by creating t and memory b cells to attack those thing that do not belong. When the real virus comes through, the body already knows to remove that without wasting time. So thank you for letting people know that the vaccines WORK. Get the shot people!

  5. “If someone dies WITH covid-19, we are counting that as a Covid-19 death.” – Direct quote from Dr. Birx at the Coronavirus Task Force press conference.

    Which means, if someone has Covid and they jump off an airplane without a parachute and they die, they died of Covid. Makes sense to me.

    1. You are correct that these sort of situations are unethical in the fact that they put the cause of death as COVID. That being said, I do understand cases in which someone has a heart attack or has cancer and they put down COVID as the cause of death because it could have been the virus that triggered the previous illnesses to worsen into a death situation.

    1. @Zach Henderson no they don’t then you have to block their call and burn all the junk mail.

    2. You never bought a car and if you feel pressured by YouTube videos, mayb stop watching? Too stressful for you boo hoo. BOO

  6. You already have more than enough people for your trial.
    I ll wait for the result in 2023 and then will decide if I get vaccinated or not.

  7. It is well known in psychology that fear makes people more susceptible to psychological manipulation and conditioning.

  8. I want to hear a reporter just once say, “Nobody believes us, I don’t know why I am reporting this”
