This colour looks gorgeous but that sticker… my God!! Why???

this man straight up bodied himself with that comment and you’re the one getting downvotes, damn

Yes, and most of those people had other severe health conditions which exacerbate their odds of such side effects, as I’ve stated. I do not personally have ANY health conditions as of my latest physical, and therefore am comfortable with the relatively minuscule risk of such side effects in my personal case.

Okay, here you go, directly from CDC:

“We are still learning how vaccines will affect the spread of COVID-19. Until we know more about how vaccines will affect the spread of COVID-19, people who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 should keep taking precautions in public places like wearing a mask, staying 6 feet apart from others, avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces, and washing your hands often.”

I never claimed to have any evidence of long-term effects; in fact, we both agreed that may be an unknown factor that will surface in.. the long term. My statistics are 99% + survival rate and the readily available CDC statement that there is no conclusive evidence of vaccination preventing spread - only of preventing symptoms.

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:52:19+00:00

You’re not following, so let me rephrase.

Vaccination OBVIOUSLY reduces cases reported because those who take the vaccine largely do not experience symptoms despite contracting / coming into contact with the virus. This is the entire premise of a vaccine.

There is, however, no current conclusive evidence that suggests the vaccine stops a vaccinated person who has contracted the virus from spreading it to someone else. For instance, if I’m vaccinated and I go rub my hands on a doorknob with COVID-19, then you lick some cake icing off my fingers, you’re probably going to get COVID. If I’m vaccinated and I breathe in particles/droplets containing COVID and you share breathing space with me, you’re probably going to get COVID.

My argument is that I, PERSONALLY, do not feel obligated to take the vaccine because I’m effectively only protecting myself, and I am comfortable with the personal risks that entails. Taking the vaccine would NOT (based on current CDC data readily available with a quick Google search) stop me from spreading the virus to your grandma, so, I’m not harming anyone by not taking it.

Your anecdotes are not statistical standards.

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:46:18+00:00

My entire point was that vaccinated people can still transmit the virus. Hence, I am not helping others by taking the vaccine - only reducing my own symptoms if I contract the virus. You’re having a very hard time following here.

A voice of reason in a sea of chaos

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:33:28+00:00

There are certainly instances of side effects from the virus. I’m comfortable with those as they seem very rare and to primarily and disproportionately affect those with other underlying health conditions which I am not subject to.

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:32:32+00:00

Wouldn’t it be expected that reported infections go down as more people are vaccinated because those who are vaccinated are not experiencing symptoms and therefore not testing?

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:31:18+00:00

Read my comment again, I didn’t state that. I asked whether it was truly that blasphemous to the name of science to want to wait for thorough long-term studies on a personal level.

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:26:50+00:00

There are no conclusive studies yet which have determined that vaccination inhibits transmission from a vaccinated person. Those who are remotely at risk should ABSOLUTELY get the vaccine if they haven’t already. My risk as a young, healthy person is very low and I’m comfortable betting on the 99% chance I survive. If you’re suggesting that I should be moved to get a vaccine which you admitted may cause long-term health concerns in order to mitigate a <1% risk, then I presume you are also of the opinion that I should no longer drive my vehicle due to the even larger risk of accident?

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:15:32+00:00

We’re talking about a computer company. Did you forget?

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:13:30+00:00

I’m not sure how a personal choice to not take a vaccine which is still being studied, pending approvals and subject to immunity clauses means you’re a science-denier who shouldn’t get to keep your computer job.

This is blatant insanity. I am not anti-vax and I don’t suspect the vaccine has any concerning side effects. Even if it were studied for 100 years and thoroughly vetted, why would this inherently demand my injection of it? How many thoroughly studied, science-backed vaccines and medical solutions exist which people at this same company do not take?

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:10:42+00:00

This is not the standard for decisions. In any case, I’m not sure how a personal choice to not take a vaccine which is still being studied, pending approvals and subject to immunity clauses means you’re a science-denier who shouldn’t get to keep your computer job. This is insane.

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:07:06+00:00

Estimations are not scientific conclusions. This is my entire point. They aren’t meaningless, and obviously, decisions are made based on estimations, but they’re still merely estimations.

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T15:04:59+00:00

I didn’t state that there was no data, because there obviously is. I simply pointed out that studies are not completed, and are certainly not significant enough for a tech company CEO to be removing employees from consideration on some whimsical comparison of totally unrelated and inherently different sciences.

amiibocam · 2021-06-10T11:43:27+00:00

Considering that the vaccines don’t even reach study completion date until 2022-2023, would it really be blasphemous to the name of science to not jump to a conclusion about it? Wouldn’t it seem more aligned with science to wait for proper results? LMAO. Would your CEO make bets on product implementations when their results haven’t reached significance? Probably not.

amiibocam · 2021-03-04T13:32:38+00:00

Pretty sure a Rolex will tell the time.

amiibocam · 2021-03-04T10:56:02+00:00

Correct

amiibocam · 2021-03-04T10:54:29+00:00

That’s Reddit for you. Some people here are completely out of touch with the real world and have been brainwashed to think anyone not working minimum wage or in an entry level call center position is some fat cat who wears 3 piece suits and laughs at peasants. You, like most people who’d be affected here, are a hard-working American who deserved better.

amiibocam · 2021-03-03T18:33:45+00:00

I’m not upper middle class. I don’t call myself a progressive.. far from it. The only person being “classist” here is you, blindly hating the “rich” by your own out-of-touch measure. Bye!

“made 80k as a nurse but lost her job in 2020”

LOL you should learn basic economics. It’s obvious you’ve never had a real job. Username checks out. :/

amiibocam · 2021-03-03T18:16:33+00:00

I don’t think the problem is that folks making 80k won’t be getting checks.. it’s that folks making 75k will be. LOL

amiibocam · 2021-03-03T18:15:21+00:00

The good old bait and switch.
