The hospital systems are throwing down the ultimatums out here.

All workers must be fully vaccinated by Oct 18th or get fucked.

There were some pissed off people today in one facility I was in.

Hopeful observers: It looks like Florida has finally peaked in daily cases and is on the downturn.

Florida: LOL

Florida reported 26,203 new COVID-19 cases on Wednesday, its highest daily number of the pandemic, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention. The state also reported an additional nine deaths.

The 7-day trend of new cases stands at 21,604 as of Wednesday, a slight increase that ended a short-lived downturn in the COVID case surge. The 7-day average for new deaths is at 228, calculated by date the deaths were reported, according to the Sun Sentinel’s analysis of the CDC data

DTaP asymptomatic transmission is an issue. Still DTaP lowers infections including asymptomatic infections. You have to be infected to be an asymptomatic infection. Half truth.

The studies that show flu vaccines result in severe disease are primarily born out of the H1N1 pandemic with uniquely poor vaccines over subsequent years.
It's a concern but not applicable to the coronavirus vaccine other than theory. Worth raising but again it's kind of a non sequitur trying to apply other unique vaccine findings to this. We do not see people with breakthrough infections catching any strain of COVID-19 with anything other than less severe disease and shorter duration of disease.
Also flu studies simultaneously show that consecutive years of vaccination are related to a decreased risk of pneumonia and severe covid. Go figure. Don't hang your hat on one study or period.

So go get vaccinated and stay out of the hospital. As above to be a carrier for transmission you have to be infected in the first place and vaccinated individuals, including a symptomatic, have lower infection rates When exposed to coronavirus. It is a combination of this as well as shorter duration of symptoms in the vaccinated breakthrough infections that result in a secondary decrease in community transmission beyond simply keeping the individual out of the hospital.

I'd rather companies simply fired unvaccinated employees, but a fine is a good second option, I guess.

yea? what if person has severe side effects from the first shot, most likely they're not going to get the second shot. You want them to lose their livelihood for that shit? fuck em and fuck their family huh?
