If you drink enough, the germs seem to stay away
Lol. Wasnt sure whether to read this as 'you get so drunk you dont notice anymore' or 'you reach a bac that kills even the germs'.
Mm-hmm, less you think about it, more you drink about it, the more it works
[Edit: some say you can get bleach or even light into the body, for these problems, and maybe we should be doing that]
Some of the vodka splashes on his hands.
he hasa glamour room in the pentagon to do all the makup for him, no need to do it himself.
I really don’t understand what could be the end game cancelling vaccines? What sort of profit they seek when they make people terminally sick? A sick person cannot make money as a healthy person?
Idk man. I’m baffled by the sheer stupidity of their decisions. Even 5 yr kid would be more reasonable.
It becomes a lot easier to comprehend them when you figure out they are just propagandandized contrarian idiots. They don't have a plan or even a definitive ideology, even the wannabe crusaders like Kegsbreath would be called vapid and empty by the most insane and deteriorated Knight of Saint Lazarus.
For those who don't know the Knights of Saint Lazarus started out as an order of lepers who figured if they were going down they were taking saracens with them.
They believe minorities have weaker immune systems and are hoping they die in greater numbers. This goes back to RFK Jrs claim that black people don't need as many vaccines as others.
They hate people telling them what to do so they tell other people what to do
They still resent having been told to go to bed by mommy and daddy.
It is called "cutting off your nose to spite your face". They are so obsessed with looking smarter and contrarian that they are ready to hurt themselves to do it.
Actively trying to cull the population
Yeah I can tell you there are a pile of pissed off airmen . Btw 160 is a small percentage of the airmen on a base. But it’s still going to piss a lot of people off.
Edit: I was told this is Lackland . The only base where new Airmen are trained. This is a good percentage of the airmen on that base who are going through training. Yeah, they’re gonna be a lot of pissed off airmen. And a lot of pissed off instructors. OK, technically you’re not an airman until you get through training because you’re a trainee at that point. But I’m old-school so I will still call them airmen
It's not even flu season, we can pump those numbers wayyy up this fall!
On the upside: If the US ever declares war against us Europeans, we just need do the smallpox-blanket thing again.
Just cough on us.
They benefit from herd immunity. Which wouldn't exist without vaccines. Many of the older ones were also vaccinated as a kid so they are also protected. The ones that usually die from preventable diseases are their children. You can see that with the measles and whooping cough outbreaks that happened in the last few years.
Oh cool, I feel like I've heard this story before... Something about a flu and an outbreak at a military base.
A long time ago though. Like probably just a little over a hundred years (at least for the flu).
Hegseth drinks his own piss
Imagine if someone qualified to run the DoD was actually running the DoD.
I think you mean, Department of War (0/1)
Nah. That's only a temp name.
Same as the Covid vaccine: It makes it less likely that you'll catch it (though not bringing it down to 0%), and just as importantly, makes you less contagious if you do catch it.
The outbreak-stopping effect becomes strong when everyone is vaccinated. It doesn't prevent every individual from becoming infected, but it inhibits disease spread through the population.
No, I know - I'm just worried that people will read the headline and think it makes you completely immune. It's also based on what is calculated to likely be the most virulent strain of flu each year, but obviously there are many and they mutate. Even with 100% vaccination rates, some flu is going to be going around and some pitchfork-wielding, dribbling idiots will kick off saying that vaccination "doesn't work".
Oh absolutely, I think it's really important that we talk about flu-vaccines as more something that works on a population level (and that makes disease milder for the individual), than something that gives full protection to the individual. We need to talk about it is such a way that when the driveling idiots talk about an outbreak, we can point out that the outbreak would have effected 10x more people (and have higher lethality) if there weren't vaccines. We should never claim that these vaccines give full protection to any individual.
What's the name of that Curb your enthusiasm song?
Back to the civil war days where more soldiers died of infections in camp than in combat.
The soldiers should know by now that they need to sneak off base to get proper medical care. Republican leadership of the military always ends this way. They want cuts and hate heatlth care, so military health care is an easy target.
