    Thank you, and yes they are. My daughter says she's back to 100% and my grandson thinks his test must have showed a false positive since his sniffles disappeared after one day.

    Where did you see this in this recent discussion of the past couple pages of this post?

    Jeppy does not take the position that vaccine is more dangerous than getting Covid. That I have seen anyway.

    I don't think anyone on this board was all just "trust the science" either (so I assumed this was about some larger world something something). I mean some have posted this or that study. So yes in general some people have some interest in what science may show.

    If this is some kind of reference to Trump not following science or something. Sure there are people who hoped Biden would handle the pandemic better than Trump (certainly I did, as that was frankly an extremely low bar, and I am not thrilled with how it was handled by Biden so far either, though he's improving a little)

    Here is the common sense solution - one way masking, as recommended by mainstream doctors in the article below.

    If you are nervous, wear a N95 - the same type of mask that protects health care workers around covid patients all day long. You can get it free thanks to Biden. Then stop worrying about what everyone else is doing.

    Well, I remember some inferences to that effect back in the discussion of that eminent scientist, RFK, Jr. I'm not going to look back to fact check. The issue is, while Jeppy may actually post some interesting or valid information, her track record in promoting dis-information is established, and one can only assume similar going forward.

    RFK Jr has raised many valid points about conflicts of interest in our supposedly objective science. He has focused in particular on Fauci. Other sources have since reported Fauci and his wife made millions in investments in China - no wonder he didn't want the Wuhan lab investigated.

    the issue has yeppej has her beliefs about coronavirus, and anything that might kind of support that (and much of it doesn't really) gets randomly thrown against the wall. And everything else, well there's no interest. So it hasn't been a remotely honest argument, I mean even as far as arguments go - it's extreme, in 2 years.

    Chad Carswell of North Carolina is refusing to get a vaccine although he needs it in order to get a transplant. He says, "I was born free, I'll die free."

    How long should we all wear masks to protect people like him?

    https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tra...seroprevalence
    Again, the claim that “94% of Americans” have antibodies is simply incorrect. Yppej is quoting a number which is not representative of the entire US population. And when challenged on it, resorts to sophistry.

    Yppej also claims 99.99% have antibodies now. This doesn’t even hold up to basic critical reasoning skills. Grab the back of an envelope and ask:

    What is the population of the USA? What is 0.01% of that population? How many new Covid cases do we have a day now?

    What does that tell you?
