Sorry I've technically had covid twice.   No I'm not getting vaxxed.  It is idiotic, it is a flu shot.  My covid experience was a headache.  No worries,people.  If I was 70 and obese I'd probably get the vax.

You read about people like this and wonder if they actually exist in real life.  

Imagine thinking you know more than the people who actually do know because some halfwit send you a link to a Youtube video  that touts some nonsense that was debunked a year ago and calling that "research". The hundreds of thousand of people who died probably had a headache too.

Yep that is the joke.  People trust scientists, because they are too dense to think for themselves.

OMG, did you actually say that?!

So my babysitter says she can design and build a bridge over the mighty Columbia River.

And a trained, experienced and respected engineer says she can build a bridge over the Columbia River.

Guess who's bridge I'm going to drive on?

Imagine taking advice from someone who can't spell.  Yo isn't you sweetheart.

Kinda weird how the amount of medical deaths per year haven't increased. I'm glad covid has gotten rid of cancer and the flu.  

Umm... you need to read some stats. 

Total Deaths in USA
2018 - 2.839 million
2019 - 2.854 million
2020 - 3.358 million

When we had 26K increase from 2018 to 2019, we had a 500K increase from 2019 to 2020. 

Age related deaths increased by 16% from 2019, but COVID accounted for most of that. 

Here are some numbers from 2019...

You just need to stop trolling now.

I trust people who should know over people who don't know.  Like you.

And a typo that was corrected within a couple of minutes of being typed trumps a person who thinks that people only trust scientists because they are "too dense" think for themselves.

You are saying that a heart surgeon shouldn't waste time treating patients who haven't bothered to research their condition and heal themselves. You are a complete and utter fool.

I trust people, who know what I don't know, even when they don't know what I might or might not know.  Even when they admit what they know isn't what they know or might know.

I'm guessing you don't trust a teaching pro to give you golf lessons.  Because you already know more about the golf swing than he or she does...

And BTW, there's no comma between people and who.

Are you a heart surgeon?  If so I'd love to hear your thoughts on that type of surgery.  If not, you are just talking trash.  Also I haven't insulted anyone's character, while you have.  That is a sign of low character and intelligence.

False Hopes, on behalf of everyone trying to stay alive during this pandemic, we can't wait you to be 70 and obese.

I'm genuinely confused.  What is this supposed to mean?

You said this:

That makes you objectively stupid, ignorant, and lacking in character

You have insulted the character of people who aren't anti-vax morons by saying that they can't think for themselves and imply that they are compliant, obedient sheep. You are pretty much the definition of a fool.

Oh I think I get it, you want me to die? Man that is f***ing dark.  Geez I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

You said earlier you'd probably get vaccinated if you were 70 and obese.  Short memory there, pal.

How do you reconcile your mis- information with the fact that many hospitals have had to add capacity to their morgues?
