This will end up in the Supreme Court more than likely will it not?
Yes, however so far they have heard the cases quickly, and
have handed down rulings on the wrong side of liberty.
They have denied religious exemptions in all previous
cases, which is a new left bent for the SCOTUS.

Why are you comparing the mRNA shot to vaccines?
It's new tech and this is the only bar to measure it against as older vaccines are a completely different animal.

Am I still an asshole for calling out all the bull# since the beginning?
If you have the vaccine, but do get sick, you will be much less sick, than if you didn't have the vaccine.

I was adressing the widespread claim that they're not vaccines which is false and based on misinfo and misunderstanding of vaccination and ignorance that 'protective immunity has been the definition for decades.
People can understandably have reservations about newer tech (though the reality is mRNA has been studied for several decades) and that should be respected - but that's no reason to make stuff up about the vaccines.
We hope that is you get 4 shots you may have upwards of 70% reduced risk of infection for 3 weeks. Lol.

Welcome to this weeks Clown World episode.
Every other story is about Omni, especially in big cities like NY, it’s exploding. Everyone keeps saying
Get vaccinated, and if you are vaccinated get boosted…
But then this………….

GENEVA, Dec 15 (Reuters) - Preliminary evidence indicates that COVID-19 vaccines may be less effective against infection and transmission linked to the Omicron coronavirus variant, which also carries a higher risk of reinfection, the World Health Organization said on Wednesday.
The WHO, in its weekly epidemiological update, said that more data was needed to better understand the extent to which Omicron may evade immunity derived from either vaccines or previous infection.
So riddle me this…if the vaccines don’t work against this strain, what are we vaccinating for?

If you're vaxxed then there's a better chance that your ass won't end up in the hospital.
Thought this was obvious by now.
