The way you wrote about you and the wife being sick and stuck in the house for a prolonged period made me think you had a hard time of it for the first week.
We had to quarantine. That is the deal. Was 14 days and now it is 10. We were just doing things right. That was the hardest part being stuck at home for two weeks.

What made you get tested for Covid if you didn't feel bad?
My wife testing positive. She noticed she lost taste and smell so she got tested. When she came back positive my work made me get tested and then I came back positive.

If you had no problems at all that is great. In this thread you talk like you are giving advice to people that Covid is not a risk of serious illness or death as you had it twice and don't worry about it to everybody.
No, no, no. I have said many times people need to do what they think is right. If that is staying home and locking themselves away or getting an endless amount of shots I am good with it. Just don't try to force me to do the same.

You talk about vaccines as if they are a fraud against the American people.
Naw. I am good with vaccines but this one I just do not believe the wife and I need. I have seen enough to not feel good about it and that mixed with us having had covid I just do not think it is right for us.

You talk down at those that believe a vaccine shot or shots help save lives.
Again....No, no, no. I get frustrated because those with the shots still want me to get the shot to help protect them and their grandma when they have all had the shot and should be protected. You either trust the shot or you don't. I am simply tired of hearing about it.

Then we agree on something because I don't care if you get a shot or not. I care that some people may convince others not to get shots.
I have not tried to convince a single person not to get it. Go back and read all my post. Not once did I ever suggest it to anybody. My wife and I are the only ones that were involved in our decision and we didn't try to include anybody else in it, not even my family members.

The math is in and 2+2 always equals 4.
Well some would actually disagree.


Coming from active and former police officers the level of distrust in government in alarming on one level and perplexing on another. You work for the government, why should we believe you then? Saying that to make a point of where things degrade and why.
All I don't trust is the vaccines that were quickly pushed out. I don't doubt the government believes they are safe and good but they are not who I am going to listen to when making the choice to get it or not. I am simply going off of my experience with covid vs. what I have seen happen to some getting the vaccines. I just do not like the risk vs reward. I do not fear covid so I see no reason to take even a .00001% chance of getting heart problems for the wife or I getting a shot to protect us from a think we already beat. That just does not make sense to me.

These folks had to get it from somewhere.
And so did my wife. Was it from a vaccinated person? Could have been and you can not deny it.

Gotta admit is is a little frightening to think that a public servant is so self absorbed that his reason for not protecting others is because it is inconvenient for him.
I don't to admit anything. You are nobody in the grand scheme of things and I could not care less what you think of me and my job. You don't know either so you simply do no matter.

You don't just get the shot to protect your self, you get it to protect the people around you.
I still have not seen how that is the case. Vaccinated people can still carry and pass covid. Like I said above, did my wife get it from a vaxed person? Maybe.

And I know why it was recommended.
Because it was common sense.


I'd explain it to you but I don't believe you have any more medical knowledge than he has.
I don't believe you have the medical knowledge to explain it regardless. That is what is stopping you. You can act like you are more than you are but your history and inability to corroborate your statements tells us all we need to know. I mean you obviously don't have any because you think a shot that still allows those that got it to pass the thing it was supposed to prevent will somehow protect others. It just makes no sense. I can carry and pass covid as can you and any other vaxed person. So again. How am I protected grandma by getting the shot?

From what I have seen and heard if the police stop me I can keep walking, if they ask me for ID I can refuse and keep walking. If they ask my name I can just say "Am I free to leave". If I have no ID I don't need to prove who I am. If they say no than I can't leave, then I don't say another word at all. That is what I hear, is that right?

Just from what I have seen and heard.
Without reasonable suspicion? Yes, that is true.

The fact that you don't believe that I have medical knowledge is further evidence that you don't. And yes, one of the ways you can protect and serve is to get the shot. Not that you would do such a thing but I guess we are talking theoretically at this point.
Instead of yet again simply expecting us to take you at your word how bout you try presenting actual evidence? What medical titles do you hold? What formal training do you have?

I simply do not believe you.

See how easy that was to throw up some letters?

Interesting, I remember asking you that same question and got no response.
Maybe I missed it or maybe I just didn't care. I am not the one here claiming to be Doogie Howser.

we suffer your unqualified opinion on numerous subjects.
You can simply ignore me like I was you. Unfortunately when I took this gig I didn't think about the fact I would now have to truly suffer by reading everything everywhere. You have no such obligations.

I thought this was a joke but after looking into it I think its actually a real thing.

THE
MISSION

We're a collective of top urologists from across the country who have come together to encourage more men to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Not only is it safe, easy, and saves lives, it can also prevent numerous long-term COVID effects. One of which is near and dear to our hearts: the male penis, and it's ability to function.

Studies have shown that COVID can affect the blood vessels of the penis in a similar way that it affects the blood vessels of the lungs, preventing them from providing enough blood to the penis to cause an erection, and leading to permanent impotence.

Our goal is to generate awareness and educate the public on this subject, because no one in the world is more passionate about keeping penile tissue healthy than we are.

The difference between you and me is I know the medical credentials you posted. You don't have enough knowledge to determine what mine are, so what is the point of trying to explain to you what training I got from them?
Well being that one of my "titles" was a data media, one was a place, and one was an animal I am not so sure you know anything at all.

You have never said anything that lead me to believe you have any formal medical training. Like most things you seem empty on the facts when the time comes to put them down. Many claims....just no facts.

Your choice of a fictional doctor really shines a light on how much you don't know. I never claimed to be him.
It was a joke.

Literal much?

I am a Respiratory Therapist.
Me too. Reading your post I get to do many exercises, mostly deep exhales.

That's why I know how masks work, and how deadly COVID really is.
Yes, I am well aware of the less than 1% chance of dyeing I am taking.

Would you like me to describe what it's like to watch a person die on a ventilator?
Sure, if you feel the need. I watched my father die on a ventilator so it will not be for me.

We should stop this because every post digs you in deeper.
You are so sure of yourself. You really put yourself on a pedestal of self importance. I am surprised you can even see this dog digging in the dirt way below you.

I never said not to take the shot. I can careless if someone chooses to take an unproven shot.

What efficacy? The shot only reduces symptoms of the virus. So it does nothing to protect others.
They are so caught up on it they think we are trying to stop people from getting it. Heck if a person wants it I will give it to them if needed. I simply do not wish to partake. What was that your parents used to say about friends jumping off a bridge?

I look at the shot the same way I do weed. I don't care if you do it but if we're sitting around and you pass me a blunt I will let it pass on by. It is just not for me. Not judging anybody that decides to take it.....I'm just not going to be one of them.

Might have some merit there cause I couldn't get hard when I had covid (didn't feel well to try). It's working fine now and the fiance is happy so once again I'm not worried.
I had no issues before, during, or after.

I am glad you are not a part of that PSA.

@jwfuchs1 thinking about it more I know a ton of people that have had covid. Many of those are men and I suspect they have a penis. Not once have I heard of a person having this issue.

I really was not sure if that was just a joke when I first saw it and had to dig into it so see it was for real. I guess they ran out of bribes and are down to only scare tactics.

I am making satire about everything above but this is happening with vaccines, and Biden, and government overreach, and rights and an
I have said from the very beginning I will not enforce any mask mandate, shot mandate, or vax passport. I'll quit or be fired before that ever happens. I've done nothing but condemn all law enforcement for taking action against people during covid. I'm no brown shirt and refuse to be a gov stooge.

I may be a cop but I'm an American first, a husband second, a son, a brother, a........ Then somewhere down the line a cop.

Kinda generalized no? Lumps people together merely by age. There are many more factors than that to consider. Very few healthy folks in that age range die. Most seem to handle it similar to me. But then I'm not fat, I'm not sedentary, I'm not diabetic, I'm not immune compromised, or any other thing that could make a person high risk.

Probably somewhere around the same number of seemingly healthy people that die shortly after getting the shot. Kinda like that CrossFit guy I shared about recently.

Ok. Awkward picture. At least he did not brag about and call it "Locker RoomTalk".
Men talking about women sexually and pedophilia? Hardly comparable to normal people. I worry about some of you. You see things very different it seems with some of the kid stuff.

If you could post a video of the conversation, I promise I will watch it.
I bet you would.

After I saw that said PSA I started asking those I knew well enough and nobody had such an issue or had heard of such a thing.

We're tight. Kinda like you get in the military. When you work with people like we do doing what we do you have to be. I'm sure most people couldn't have such conversations.
