October rantings

Dear Covidiots,

While you were out being yapping anti-vaxxers, Joe and I went and got our booster shots.* Perhaps we took the doses originally bought for you. He had no reaction this time around, and I had a really sore arm and neck but did not feel tired or have any other reactions.

Love

Old Biddy

I'm so sick of covidiots couching their bullshit in pseudo-science.  No, you didn't avoid the vaccine because you had concerns about messenger RNA if you can't tell me what mRNA is.  Nor did you skip it because it's not approved by the FDA or was developed using tissue from a few abortions performed before you were born if you got monoclonal antibodies and didn't ask those same two questions about that. And if you claim you can't breathe in a mask I'd better not see you with a scarf around your face in winter. Just say you're not going to get vaccinated because you don't want to, mask up and accept that there may be consequences.

I'm convinced the whole fuss over hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin is that knowing these two chemical common names lets people pretend they did 'research' about it rather than reading some sketchy articles on Facebook or Fox News.  I've got a frickin PhD in a field that's barely a half of a subdiscipine away from organic chemistry and even I don't usually read the clinical trials results in their original published form or request off-label prescriptions from my Dr.

 

*Yes, we qualify by virtue of being old and obese and no one checked us or the younger skinnier people in line.  Tompkins County and the drugstores here have a lot of vaccines and are pushing it.  I even did a same day appointment.
