FTR, and just so that you "inquire no more", i have ZERO credentials in epidemiology.

If you check the proportion of older people that have been hit hard by this virus, relative to younger people, you'll arrive @ the conclusion that this virus is A LOT MORE DANGEROUS to older people than it is to younger people, BUT that doesn't mean it doesn't hit younger people "just as hard": it just doesn't hit them that hard AS OFTEN. Since it's a lot easier to check who's more vulnerable by age than it is with other preexisting illnesses like the ones @Jhhnn had mentioned earlier (post #2661), vaccinating older people 1st is a good way to TRY and decrease hospital admissions due to COVID, thus giving hospitals "more breathing room" for other medical issues.
You specified those who are vulnerable. Please provide a list of which groups are NOT vulnerable.

Another reason why Idaho has shitty numbers and has to farm out COVID-19 patients to other states.
The Central District Board of Health ousted a person who believes in public health measures and replaced him with a hack pathologist

"Cole has spent much of the pandemic on the right-wing media circuit downplaying the virus and touting unproven treatments for it, like the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin. During an event this summer in San Antonio, he called the coronavirus vaccine "fake" and "needle rape," later telling KTVB it was a "tongue-in-cheek" comment "

I have thought this for some time. Pity that Mrs. Clinton was so direct, it wasn't politic of her. It cost us dearly. We are still not rid of the cancer that is Donald Trump.
On the plus side, people are showing their true colors instead of hiding them.
But I'm not sure that makes up for trump and what has followed.

No, Laura Loomer, I'm not going to "pray for you". I don't believe in sky fairies, one, but you don't deserve prayers as someone who actually caused harm by downplaying this. Maybe if you have a serious case (and if she's not in the ICU on a vent it's not as bad as it could be) you'll actually do some good to society.

And no, your body aches are not the "worst part about it". That would be dying a slow miserable death, unable to breathe by yourself for weeks or see your loved ones.

Asshole.

Trump is not the cancer, he is the symptom. The only thing different about him is that he was willing to say out loud what the rest of the GOP is mostly hesitant to. They hide behind dog whistles, Trump doesn't bother. I fully expect he'll be the next president, because this country is full of morons.

Remember when we were kids and cried when the doctor wanted to give us a shot? Well, THIS seemed to calm the situation, and we got our shot. And then realized that it wasn't so bad after all. Well anti-vaxxers, time to grow up.

Not AS VULNERABLE. Doesn't mean they can't get "hit hard" by the virus: only that it's LESS LIKELY.

As for the question: everybody else.

Laura Loomer, terrible little Trumpling, has acquired COVID. She publicly wished to get it so she could prove to everyone that food poisoning is worse. She is now asking for prayers

God shakes his head. “What did you want from me? I sent you social distancing, masks and vaccines.”

Jesus said to him, “Once again it is written: ‘You are not to put the Lord your God to the test.’” – Matthew 4:7

She is welcome to all the prayers she wants, with all the medical efficacy they bring.

More on this fucking idiot Loomer ...


“I have not taken the COVID-19 vaccine, and I don’t plan on ever taking it because it is unsafe and ineffective. Today, I immediately started a treatment of Azithromyacin and Hydroxychloroquine. I’m also taking the OrthoMune dietary supplement.” She said she’s also received the Regeneron antibody treatment"

follow-up messages on her Telegram channel late Thursday, she made it clear that she was suffering severe symptoms. “Just pray for me please,” she wrote. “Can’t even begin to explain how brutal the body aches and nausea that come with COVID are. I am in so much pain.”

After posting how awful covid is and how much pain she's in ....

She then posted more vaccine conspiracy theories, writing that the government “doesn’t want you to know what it really does,” despite the scientific fact that it would have offered her some protection.

Guess what is even more ineffective at stopping one from getting covid? Not getting the vaccine you moron.

How much sicker do you think she will get before changing her mind on the vaccines?

Death bed, perhaps?

Or maybe she'll be one of those that continues to fight the vaccines all the way up until the end.

That is a strange way of saying no one is not vulnerable to COVID.

Thanks for posting that. Unfortunately throwing money at burned out healthcare workers isn't going to resolve this. This is a huge concern IMO. How much longer can they keep this up and who is crazy enough to replace them.

Just heard that nurses willing to go to Covid hotspots can earn as much as $6K/week.
Traveling nurses have always raked in the $$$. Knew a guy that did that. To make it simple to go from place to place, he bought a huge diesel pusher motor home, and trailer'ed a car. He would usually work about 4 months at a place, then move on to his next gig.
