It was propaganda. It was literally made up out of thin air to cause fear.While it wasn't propaganda, I agree too many people accepted the ivermectin overdose exaggerations on too little evidence.
I have no idea if this story is true or false. What's your evidence that it's false?
So... Why isn't it stopping it?Yes.
From the CDC. You're soooo naiveYes.
What was the political cause being promoted by the ivermectin scare? I suppose you could argue it promo0ted a public health cause, but that's not inherently political.It was propaganda. It was literally made up out of thin air to cause fear.
Given the option of "yes" or "no", "yes" is the more correct answer. Does a Stop sign get people to stop at an intersection? Between "yes" and "no", "yes" is more correct. Your quote supports my answer.From the CDC. You're soooo naive
Well, it can't stop the virus in the people who don't take it, which is over 90% of the infected despite being less that half the population.IT's WORKING!!!! IT's STOPPING THE VIRUS!
A study, conducted by Mayo Clinic and Cambridge-based biotech company nference and posted in preprint MedRxiv last week, suggested that the Moderna vaccine’s effectiveness against the Delta variant fell to 76 percent and Pfizer’s dropped to 42 percent.Well, it can't stop the virus in the people who don't take it, which is over 90% of the infected despite being less that half the population.
My personal take is that disbanding mask use, social distancing and all the other mitigation techniques that were once part of our lives were essentially disbanded so we gave the virus ample room to rise once again. We essentially went back to life before Covid and Covid reminded us that it's still here. Add in the Delta variant as more adept at spreading and it was off to the races and into an uncertain fall/winter.
We went away from these things because the vaccine was supposed to work plain and simple.My personal take is that disbanding mask use, social distancing and all the other mitigation techniques that were once part of our lives were essentially disbanded so we gave the virus ample room to rise once again.

We let our foot off the gas basically.
Vaccinations won't inherently change case rates, but they will influence hospitalizations and deaths which is more important IMO. That data shows a clear pattern that the bulk of those are unvaccinated individuals and the elevated numbers we're seeing today are within that group.
And the vaccine is working as it's reducing what our hospitalizations and deaths could be - things are pretty bleak right now, but the unfortunate checkmarks we see within those categories are in the unvaccinated population. Doesn't mean that being vaccinated is some golden ticket as breakthroughs do happen, but the chance of such is reduced. Also doesn't mean we should treat unvaccinated people like lepers either as that just creates more disdain.We went away from these things because the vaccine was supposed to work plain and simple.
Personally I'm just not afraid and will take my chances. I went through the worst of it unvaccinated, I'll survive the rest. If I don't, than I die. Something we all do. I'm refuse to live in fear and believe stupid propaganda like others(not you) that think a cough medicine is used for cutsAnd the vaccine is working as it's reducing what our hospitalizations and deaths could be - things are pretty bleak right now, but the unfortunate checkmarks we see within those categories are in the unvaccinated population.

Our case counts are not going to go down unless we turn up the dial again to more rigid enforcement which, to be candid, would really suck for us all. I like not wearing a mask in a store, going out to dinner, attending a HS football game, etc., but realize that we can't wish this away and all the hopes and prayers aren't going to change anything unless we interject some course correction.
Heh, not in California it doesn't.What was the political cause being promoted by the ivermectin scare? I suppose you could argue it promo0ted a public health cause, but that's not inherently political.

It's entirely your right to do what you will with your own body. If your employer requires it or something like that or be tested weekly, you're an adult and can make up your own mind on what your next steps could look like and what matters most through your lens.Personally I'm just not afraid and will take my chances.

Luckily I'm the boss but if I do have to follow the mandates it'll be a lot easier to get under 100 staff so unfortunately both vaccinated and unvaccinated are going to pay. I'm going to refuse until I can't anymore.It's entirely your right to do what you will with your own body.

Which, if true, does not rebut that the current population getting infected is overwhelmingly unvaccinated.A study, conducted by Mayo Clinic and Cambridge-based biotech company nference and posted in preprint MedRxiv last week, suggested that the Moderna vaccine’s effectiveness against the Delta variant fell to 76 percent and Pfizer’s dropped to 42 percent.
You know this because ... ? I agree that is you are going to gargle a useless medicine, you should choose one for gargling. However, betadine is much more common in the topical formulation than the gargling formulation, and I'm not sure how many people know of the latter.are not using the "cuts and scrapes" version you absolute morons.
You're just another America-hating conservative, then.Personally I'm just not afraid and will take my chances.
