Why do you call vaccines “short term” and please show your work. Not all vaccines. Those that I was referring to. Flu/covid for example. They are short term, as in they wear off relatively quick, like within months or a year. They don't prevent infection. The only thing they do is they -may- make the symptoms of an infection not as bad or uncomfortable. For relatively healthy people they aren't needed. We waste an insane amount of money and resources on this crap. I'm not talking about vaccines that provide years or maybe even a lifetime of protection, that actually prevent an infection from occurring. No vaccines prevent infection, at least not directly. They assist the body in dealing with infection, making the illness shorter, less serious, and therefore less infectious. Fewer people coughing less for a shorter time = fewer infections. It's true to say "vaccination reduces infection rates". It's untrue to say "if you're vaccinated, you won't get infected". Vaccination is like a shotgun in a zombie apocalypse. You can still get your throat torn out by the ravenous undead, even with a decent Holland & Holland in your hands, but it's much less likely.

We have vaccines that provide rates of -immunity- to the targeted disease at close to 90%, even higher, throughout ones entire lifetime. If you've had those vaccines then it would be more correct to say you're not guaranteed to never get it but it's highly unlikely that you will. These flu/covid vaccines have very little effect on infection rates.

These flu/covid vaccines have very little effect on infection rates. Not so. Properly conducted vaccination programmes have significant effects on infection rates (and morbidity and mortality). A few minutes on Google Scholar will show you this, with peer-reviewed papers aplenty.

The fundamental problem I had in the states, was our head of the cdc stated unequivocally in spring 2021 if you are vaccinated you won’t get or spread covid. That was essentially repeated by Biden and fauci That led to hospitals and nursing homes who housed the most vulnerable to institute policies that only vaccinated could enter and visit. They eliminated the you must show proof of a negative test within the last x days. Well we know vaccinated were still getting covid and spreading it. Of all the errors during covid in the states this was the worst.

Yeah, but I was never the one acting all high and mighty. I openly admitted to that, kinda like how Freon admitted to testing positive for covid, then deciding it was a great idea to go out grocery shopping. I also don't work in health care. OK - did you also know the risks? Sure, but I've never considered anybody who didn't get vaccinated to essentially be guilty of murder. Somebody else here did. Then, they tested positive for covid and went out for some groceries.

Based on some of the ignorant things you were saying back during the Pandemic, it is likely more than yours.

These vaccines are actually natural ingredients. It has parts of bacteria and viruses in it. That's all natural. It teaches your body how to defend the sickness part. You still catch the flu, but body is prepared and says "F**K off" Ok. So why pay money for something that your body is going to do anyways? "It teaches your body how to defend" Your body isn't going to do it without the "training". Basically it helps the body defend.

Basically it helps the body defend. Lol. Did the huge vast majority of unvaccinated people that were infected die or did their bodies fight it off without the "training"?

So you are calling out hypocrisy. All right. Since you knew the risks, why have a large gathering? I'm a professional dj, party promoter, and event coordinator. I host a weekly event here in SD. We didnt want to stop, so I set up an outside dj setup underneath my covered deck, complete with lights and a green screen. The first two weeks of covid, we did a Twitch broadcast with myself, my gf, and another dj. By the third week, a lot of people knew about it and wanted to come over. So I limited it to 20 people, byo and a your own cooler, had hand sanitizer everywhere, and nobody was allowed inside except to use the bathroom. I had a huge yard, and not a single person that came over ever got covid from my weekly parties. I didn't twist anybody arm. There were only two DJs who didn't want to do it, and they simply sent a video and audio recording. And yeah, I did throw an outlaw party(illegal rave) about five months into quarantine. Outside in a canyon. Five hundred people prepaid 20 bucks to get in, and another hundred or so people snuck in. But that is beside the point. I never called anybody a murderer for not following covid guidelines. That was somebody else.

There is a company that does trivia - with dj music in between - and dj bingo. He’s doing very well. In about 40 places now with staff.

I DJ clubs, mansions, festivals, etc. Oh, and I play a little sushi restaurant quarterly. I appreciate tf out of DJs who do other stuff though. I could make another fifty grand a year if I played weddings, but I did one years ago and hated every minute of it.
