Why get vaccinated for free when approved COVID vaccines have gone through clinical trials, have been "tested" by 4.97 BILLION people who have received them, have been proven to keep people alive and out of the hospital, and are recommended by top virologists, scientists, and medical experts around the world; 

when you can purchase and ingest a LIVESTOCK DEWORMER that does nothing to prevent or treat COVID or COVID-Related complications that is RECOMMENDED BY FOX NEWS CELEBRITIES who play virologists on TV? 

Sadly, this is not a joke.

Inside a San Antonio Hospital, CHILDREN BATTLE FOR BREATH

Today's anti-voter anti-democracy radical Republican Party is working diligently to make it easier for a political party or powerful individual to overthrow the will of the American people.  It is not an overstatement to say that our democracy is under serious assault.

We all need to be adults and do what we can to protect America's children.

The "delta variant is affecting more children on a daily basis"...This ELEVEN-MONTH-OLD is one of them. Children under 12 years old cannot get vaccinated but the rest of us can in order to cut down on the spread of the disease to children.   "...an 11-month-old girl from the Houston area had to be airlifted to Temple because no pediatric hospitals in Houston would accept her as a transfer patient""She needed to be intubated immediately because she was having seizures,...We looked at all five major pediatric hospital groups and none [had beds] available."

In 2020, before covid vaccines, most major private insurers waived patient payments — from coinsurance to deductibles — for covid treatment. But many if not most have allowed that policy to lapse. Aetna, for example, ended that policy Feb. 28; UnitedHealthcare began rolling back its waivers late last year and ended them by the end of March.

More than 97% of hospitalized patients last month were unvaccinated. Though the vaccines will not necessarily prevent you from catching the coronavirus, they are highly effective at assuring you will have a milder case and are kept out of the hospital.

For this reason, there’s logic behind insurers’ waiver rollback: Why should patients be kept financially unharmed from what is now a preventable hospitalization, thanks to a vaccine that the government paid for and made available free of charge?

“Your vote doesn’t count more than anyone else’s. You don’t get to cancel them out, call for a war, because you don’t like the results of an election,” she said. “You call yourself a patriot? That’s not patriotism. Patriotism is loyalty to country, loyalty to the Constitution, not loyalty to a single head of state. That’s the tyranny we rejected on July 4, 1776.”

The leaders of today's radical Republican Party spend most of their time manufacturing and publishing disinformation.  They have a real tough time dealing with reality.

As you can see, this story from 12/21/2020 had a subheading that reads:

"TRUMP LOYALISTS ARE PLANNING A LAST STAND JAN. 6."    

Jim Jordan was one of the loyalists in attendance at the meeting.

“I’m admitting young healthy people to the hospital with very serious COVID infections,..One of the last things they do before they’re intubated is beg me for the vaccine. I hold their hand and tell them that I’m sorry, but it’s too late.”
