pat Posted April 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 It's unbelievable to me how willing people are to take these risks with covid. I mean I get someone saying "if I get it I'm going to be fine and I'm sick of the lockdown and I'm going to be selfish." But what I really don't get is "I could have no risk at all but I'm just going to skip on the vaccine". Lots of people are getting caught up in the "can't trust a vaccine". And they're going to get sick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read through the whole thing...although I admittedly skimmed a few sections. First..this article is a hypothesis from one doctor...a clinical exercise physiologist, to be exact. I'd be interested to see whether it was subjected to peer review by any infectious disease doctors.....and if so, what was their response? I won't pretend to know anything about the author's acumen or intelligence....but a number of points in his hypothesis are diametrically opposed to what I was told by the infectious disease specialist who examined me when I had covid. In addition to deeming masks ineffective and unnecessary, the author's hypothesis also attempts to deny the existence of asymptomatic transmission and cites a study that supporting his position. Which is fine....except that this position was disproven months ago. (A recent study published by doctors and epidemiologists on JAMA Network concluded that 59% of all US cases were caused by asymptomatic transmission...LINK) Ultimately, the article comes across as an individual doctor in an unrelated field finding facts and studies that support his own personal opinions/ preconceived notion and presenting it as irrefutable scientific proof. (i.e. Dr. Scott Atlas) If his hypothesis was subjected to review by a group of infectious disease specialists and epidemiologists , I suspect they would very much refute the author's conclusions.

If you were a physician at St Thomas and got a flu shot, it was tagged on your id. If you did not get a flu shot, one had to wear a mask. Most flu shots are far less efficacious than covid vaccine. So why do you have to wear a mask if you have been vaccinated? Why did St. Thomas make the un-vaccinated physicians wear masks since scientifically masks don't prevent the spread of airborne viruses?

To shame you into getting a vaccine. It was never enforced. Unenforceable and with patients and visitors not having to wear a mask it made it pretty weak. But the main issue was to get a vac and once you had it, your chances of getting the flu were much less. As far as I can tell, covid vaccine is much more effective than the flu shot.
