  1. Well I clarified that in the post after it but maybe you didn’t see that. Those numbers don’t look off to you? https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/23/delta-variant-pfizer-covid-vaccine-39percent-effective-in-israel-prevents-severe-illness.html and that’s why it would be really concerning. We will know in a month or so.
  2. Also greater than 10% of cases going to hospital and 4/217 deaths isn’t good, but I think the 217 number is waaaaaay low.
  3. For sure. But Delta just got here. They have one entire confirmed case. Anyway I’m not arguing with you at all, we agree. I just took offense to mchammer trying to say that I was referencing border/immigration policy, which I clearly wasn’t. I’m hardheaded, but I’m the only one that has avoided discussing politics at all in this conversation, which was pretty much my original point. Peace.
  4. It’s the Texas Covid thread . Data is incomplete from Friday and in the accompanying YouTube presentation they said 95% of hospitalizations were unvaxxed which is GREAT news considering roughly 60% of the adult population is vaxxed. Vaccine Breakthrough Cases in Nueces County (217 cases) • # hospitalized – 25 • #deaths–4 Vaccine Status: Moderna 78 Pfizer 57 J&J 30 Unknown 01 Time Infected: 25 to 54 days after last vaccine link - https://www.cctexas.com/detail/covid-19-update
  5. Blow it all up.
  6. Yeah I know and it’s frustrating as fuck. My hope I guess is that if it wasn’t so political a bunch more of the idiots would come around and take the shot. I mean one entire side of my family is enormously Republican and they’ve all been vaccinated. Let’s change the message to only stupid people don’t take the shot. Cut them off from healthcare. Whatever. I’m so done with this crap and it’s starting to feel like we are falling right back in to spring of 2020.
  7. Y’all really don’t like it when someone comes in here and wants to discuss an issue but not make it about politics.
  8. Actually, we don’t know that for sure yet. I’m not going to derail this thread any further, but I posted real time real world numbers on the Texas thread. I DO NOT think they are correct, but as of now it doesn’t look good. Meanwhile I’m sitting here in Port A and four restaurants have shut down in the last 3 days due to Covid. These mostly aren’t unvaccinated people. Now, I think we can all agree that the end goal here is to cut the deaths down to an acceptable level so if the vaccines are working, great. I was mostly responding to his attempt to throw me under the bus on the border issue, which I wasn’t doing. But you know that.
  9. Nah all good. My point that flew over his head is we can have 100% of our population vaccinated, but a mutation can happen elsewhere in the world and we are right back here like we are with Delta. I don’t give a shit about y’alls argument over the border and immigration. Hook ‘em.
  10. You don’t read well.
  11. Link from a few days ago if anyone is interested but I’m pretty sure I pulled the only meaningful data. Hopefully they will start updating regularly again. The last one was 2 months ago. They used to do it twice a week. Everyone got caught with their pants down on this. https://www.cctexas.com/detail/covid-19-update
  12. No, I told him why he was negging me but I was polite and phrased it as a question. So I’ll do you the same courtesy, is it an immigration/border policy issue if the virus is mutating in other parts of the world and we allow international air travel?
  13. Either my sarcasm meter is broken or you are a fucking idoit for that takeaway from my posts. Congrats.
  14. Meant to add that I watched the YouTube video that accompanied the numbers in my previous post and the Nueces county official stated that over 95% of our hospitalizations were unvaxxed. @GreenspointTexas @Bevo since we are around 60% vaxxed for our total population that’s really, really good obviously.
  15. I’m spitballing here, but I think that case number is WAY low so it’s probably not nearly as bad as it looks. A ton of people have it and either aren’t getting tested or don’t even realize they have it. We are going to find out that the vaccine efficacy is closer to 60Ish% for Delta in a few weeks. To my untrained eye it’s looking like the vaccine is working really well preventing death and hospitalization.
  16. So I did look this one up. It’s actually @15%.
  17. This is kind of where I was going. Thank you. I think. “Them” is roughly 35% of our population. 70ish% of those are Republicans. 100% are idiots. Forgive me for not looking up the real numbers. Regardless the other real problem we have is the rest of the world which I think is a little less than 10% vaccinated. I haven’t heard any talk of shutting our borders down, so here we are. Y’all scream at political parties all you like.
  18. Yeah I know. I guess I’m going for the perfect world where there is one message that gets out to the public. So I guess I’d like to be more like N. Korea is what I’m advocating for 🤪😂
  19. Oh I’ve already gotten it from some t-shirt fans down here. They are looking forward to doing it. It’s gonna happen. You met one of them lol
  20. We are still a year away from having even comparable facilities to most big12 teams, much less the SEC. The fact that we are being out recruited by everyone shouldn’t be shocking. Oh, and we’ve sucked for 10 years. surprise!?!
  21. To be clear @WhatTheBuckyou are negging me because you think the vaccine issue should be a political one?
  22. Where in your rambling bullshit did you convince yourself that my mom voted forTrump? Next time read what you are responding to. Also have fun in the big10.
  23. I guess I wasn’t clear. I’m “yelling” at everyone. Mostly the dumbasses in the Republican base. But that back and forth accomplishes nothing. instead of tweets like that maybe beat them over the head with the science. I mean I know that won’t actually work but let’s try something other than what we are doing which isn’t working?
  24. Oh I get what forum I am posting in and I didn’t mean everyone needs to stop the political nonsense on this thread. But framing the vax/no vax around political ideology is what got us here and it needs to stop. I’m not sure how much more I can dumb it down for you to understand it.
