McConnell urges Americans: ‘Get vaccinated’ or risk shutdown

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell implored unvaccinated Americans Tuesday to take the COVID-19 shot, issuing a stark and grave warning of a repeat of last year’s shutdowns if people refuse to protect themselves from the coronavirus.

McConnell urged Americans to ignore the “demonstrably bad advice” coming from pundits and others against the vaccines. As caseloads skyrocket, he noted that nearly all the new virus hospitalizations in the U.S. are among people who have not been vaccinated.

“If there is anybody out there willing to listen: Get vaccinated,” McConnell, R-Ky., said at his weekly press conference at the Capitol.

“These shots need to get in everybody’s arms as rapidly as possible or we’re going to be back in a situation in the fall that we don’t yearn for — that we went through last year,” he said. “This is not complicated.”

McConnell has been one of the most outspoken members of his party in urging vaccinations to stop the virus spread, speaking often in his home state of Kentucky of the need for people to get the shot.

Shut it down...forever. I always wondered why people play the game of chicken. Now I know.

4. how many ‘new’ cases are identified in patients who are already fully vaccinated....I have read upwards of 60% of new cases are coming from fully vaccinated patients.

5. the recovery rate is 99.6%

6. what are the true morbidity and mortality numbers of vaccine-related illness and death?

Ibelieve #4 are UK numbers and the minister of mumbling corrected it to 60% unvaccinated. According to the UK, 90% of those over 75 have had two doses. That leaves 10% unprotected, who are more likely to be hospitalized/die. Haven’t found UK numbers specifically on reinfection, but the Cleveland Clinic did a study of their medical people and found a 0.3% reinfection rate after full vaccination, with no deaths (bearing in mind these are reasonably healthy working-aged people with 2 or less comorbidities). A separate study on previously naturally infected found 84% protection from reinfection, or 16% reinfection rate

#5 recovery rate - a red herring. It’s been said that 1/4 of all covid survivors will have some sort of either short-term or long-term disability; ‘long covid’ brain fog and lung problems are two biggies.

6. (see #4 above and)
Morbidities in general. Many studies have pointed to ability to produce antibodies as a key indictor. Antibody production in infected/vaccinated is dependent on existing morbidities.

You’ll have to do a little math to change percentages into population numbers but just from the percentages, it’s not a pretty picture of those whose immune systems may have a hard time rallying, regardless of vaccine or naturally infected.:

“when considering the whole population a cross-sectional study in Scotland using primary care data found 23.2% of participants had multimorbidity, while in a study from the USA estimated the prevalence to be 22.6% and an Australian study based on national survey data showed 32.6%.16,35,36 The prevalence increases with age.4 When considering the older population from the study in Scotland, around 65% of those aged more than 65 years and almost 82% of those aged 85 years or more had multimorbidity, whereas a study from Spain found that for those over the age of 85 years the prevalence was as high as 95.1%.16 In non-western countries such as Iran, when considering adults aged 40 to 75 years, the prevalence of multimorbidity reached 19.4%, while in southern Brazil, a study in adults over the age of 20 years found 29.1%.37,38 Similarly, a cross sectional study in Bangladesh reported a prevalence of 54% in those over 60 years, and in Nigeria, 49% of elderly patients admitted in hospitals had multimorbidity.28,39”

As usually, nary a word on all those who had covid and have the best immunity already.

It is like the whole of the world has forgotten about the human immune system and the benefits it provides.

***

Exactly.

How many Americans like myself have had Covid and survived it? There are many millions in this category. Are they counting us as unvaxxed?

There is no reason in the world for Covid survivors to take an unapproved, and production rushed vaccine that has already shown to be deadly and debilitating for some who have taken it. Plus, we don’t know how this new DNA manipulating jab will affect long term health.

I smell a rat when the government is nearly hysterical and will try anything to get that poison in our bodies.

Something tells me a robust resistance is exactly what the DS wants.

You may be right, but at some point there are no other options.

While some of the vaccinated are getting COVID, the cases are mostly mild. That says the vaccine is helping.

My unvaccinated wife was diagnosed with COVID a year ago. She had cold symptoms for a couple of days. No big deal. We lived our lives as a normal happily married couple the whole time. I, unvaccinated and never having previously had any symptoms of COVID, did not get it. I'm 62, in good health, and take Vitamin D supplements every day. Neither me nor my wife is getting the jab.

For one thing, I’ll never accept a shot “in the arm” ever again. Butt only for me going forward.

I got tendinitis/vaccine induced left shoulder bursitis twice in the past 3 years: once from a flu shot and then more severely from the covid shot. I couldn’t use my left arm from March until last week.

Its the new delta plus. Highly more infectious and lethal.
Doesn’t respond to monoclonal antibodies. Very low response to the vaccines antibodies. I think I read 50%.
Also delta is a super mutator, and it takes its super high infectivity with it when it changes
Ever play Plague? You should.

Might be a real population decimator.
We could have a whole new world in our lifetimes.
I am a clinical scientist so I think this is fascinating!

400 US children have died from covid, btw.

I am very careful and also very good at discerning where the truth is.

That number has been debunked on this site many times. Tucker Carlson ran a segment yesterday debunking it with clinical scientists as well.

That's right, everyone, 18 years or younger, that died with covid in the US had at least one serious comorbidity.

The number of healthy individuals, 18 years or younger, that died with covid is exactly Zero.

Sounds like a threat tome.

The leftists are just chomping at the bit to impose lockdowns on us again.

They hate, loathe, and generally despise the thought that others are free and they cannot control them.

Even with 100% vaccination, this fall/winter will be a record flu season

And if it isn’t, nobody is going to know because the media will simply tell us what the left wants us to hear.

And if there isn’t a real flu season to freak out about, they will just fabricate one and about half the populace will believe them anyways.

Good for McConnell and Hannity and Trump too. I hope more step up. He knows what is like having Polio when younger and the importance of vaccines. Of course, lots of folks on this board will slam McConnell and will continue to just cheer on the virus just so they can win an argument on a conspiracy theory. Just bizarre.

nearly all the new virus hospitalizations in the U.S. are among people who have not been vaccinated.


Then why are almost 90,000 people dead after taking the vaccination?

More people are dying (per day) from the under reported vax deaths than they are dying from the Wuhan Virus and its variants. These people are being treated as if their deaths were un-vaxed cases to empower a political narrative.

I guess these people didn’t make it to the hospital.

Remember when this country had “public servants”? I do. That’s not what these people are.
