It was mentioned that the J&J vaccine is a good one for variants.....This just in from the FDA

Today FDA and @CDCgov issued a statement regarding the Johnson & Johnson #COVID19 vaccine. We are recommending a pause in the use of this vaccine out of an abundance of caution.


So maybe not so good for anything right now.

That's beyond absurd that the CDC is recommending the Johnson & Johnson vaccine be paused. They are making this recommendation based on 6 women who got blood clots out of 6.8 million doses administered. That's literally less than 1 in a million. Yet, rapid administration of this vaccine will undoubtedly save more than 6 additional lives.

Our government's inability to make rational decisions based on data analysis drives me crazy.

It is almost like the government doesn't want Covid to ever go away.

Isn't it just a one day pause? U-M is planning on vaccinating students with J&J - will be interesting to see which decision is made.


What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

The Flatten The Curve bullshit doesn't work anymore. We need 2 weeks to flatten the curve...that was more than a year ago. People are tired of lies and want the truth. For some reason the truth isn't top of mind of those in charge. Maybe, just maybe, try being 100 percent honest, you might be surprised at the response you get. Short of armed troops patrolling, there is no way another lockdown will work because people will ignore the order.
Well.. if we had every last fucking soul on board that would have worked. We never had that. So nobody lied on that... they simply proposed something unrealistic. There’s a massive difference.

At least you admit it is not a realistic thing to think every person in a given state will just bow to the government. Kinda runs contrary to why this country was founded. It always comes back to a simple concept, personal responsibility.

You can’t fix stupid. You can explain how it would work till you’re blue in the face though.

Sadly, for you, there is mounting evidence worldwide that lock downs are useless. Even Fauci concedes things being open in Texas is not affecting the numbers..hmmm...You lock it down, numbers do go down until you open it up again and the numbers go back up. Whitmer Screwed up and has realized it, just one problem, she realized it too late.

Only because you would need 100% separation of everybody until absolutely nobody was contagious. The theory isn’t the problem. It’s that humans are involved.

8800 new cases and 74 new deaths but thank God we can all go to the bar and drink a beer maskless. Thanks Whitler.


They/them, non-binary and proud.

Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

There are no significant cases from restaurants. Interesting that Whitmer choosing to NOT be a dictator was the straw that broke the camel's back for you.

How many are false positives? The people who are vaccinated and get tested for positive with covid19 and told by the doctors and health experts that the test results are false positive.

That means the test results are not fully accurate.

Also what do high numbers do mentally? It’s in Your comment. Panic and fear. That sells.
There’s a reason why recovery numbers are not promoted over the test results. Recovery numbers don’t promote fear and do not sell.

And don’t you find it funny that no testing is done on Sunday for such a claimed deadly virus by the government. I know if such a thing was high priority, it would be worked around the clock.


If you don’t have a mask covering your exhaust pipe on the car, you are not trying to stop global warming by preventing the harmful emission particles from spraying out!

Fortunately for the rest of us we can all divide by 2.

Got it. So divide Tuesday’s numbers by two. Makes sense by that method. So reality that brings the cases down. :blink

Or you could do it right and divide Monday’s numbers by 2.
