Biden will require federal workers to get the Covid vaccine or submit to testing

[Cmsgthokage]

I'm DQd with long covid. Quite literally the healthiest/most fit person in the building. Unfortunately, that shit does happen

No particular comment on the rest of this discussion, just throwing it out there

That honestly sucks. Hope you get back on status soon. I only have heard of one guy getting hospitalized from my region haven’t heard if he’s back on status yet.

That’s a big problem with the political landscape today. For example, Generally, I can tell how someone feels about gun control based on how they feel about abortion. With two mutually exclusive things that shouldn’t happen but it does.

I think people should be able to have abortions if they want to, i believe is shouldn’t be the plan A though. Educate your kid when the time comes to practice safe sex. Now that you know my stance on abortions what do you think my stance on gun control is?

Literally the only valid remaining argument is that the vaccine still appears to prevent serious disease.
People are vaxxed, catching it, carrying a high viral load, and spreading it.
This thing is going to keep mutating and isn’t going anywhere any time soon.

And you still have 85% less chance of getting covid. And you keep listing not getting serious disease or dying as like a minor benefit

It is a major benefit.
But it puts the group think argument to bed.

Let me ask all of you real smart people a question……..if a PCR test only tests for the presence of coronavirus, then how do they identify the “Delta Variant”? Has anyone ever explained that? Did they come up with a special Delta test?

Everyone here is falling for the same trap. Arguing about shit like this to distract and divide us.

We need to stay focused on the true issues like how fucked up NCEPT is and how we were unable to vote on a 6 year contract extension with terms no longer that advantageous to the BUEs.

I don’t know if you are trolling or not. But they take a percentage of tests and sequence them in the lab

Hopefully they’re better at sequencing than me!

what's a sequence

 

[Peter Gibbons]

what's a sequence

Wait how do the shiny things have anyhting to do with anything?

See, conspiracy! checkmate libs

 

[TRUMPWONBIDENLOST]

So right now if you don’t want to be vaccinated, then don’t. Make Uncle Sam pay you for this inconvenient testing. Read the article. BTW I am not trolling you clowns…..

No that's me he's the original phillyman


A variant means that it has mutated enough to modify a (spike protein/membrane/infection mechanism) to get past current treatments

Let me ask all of you real smart people a question……..if a PCR test only tests for the presence of coronavirus, then how do they identify the “Delta Variant”? Has anyone ever explained that? Did they come up with a special Delta test?

They use a pcr test to sequence genes-the DNA is split into RNA and the gene making the new (spike protein/membrane mutation) is isolated and the new contagion is the variant.

But wait how can these be called vaccines if they're putting DNA or RNA in us to make proteins?

It's mRNA which is used to make the spiked proteins of the virus as a "mug shot" for the body to identify the virus. A vaccine is a biological preparation for a disease. So it's essentially that.

Someone brought up how it's gene therapy, but that's incorrect as well since it lacks multiple factors to alter genes such as nucleus access, reverting to double stranded DNA (like HIV/AIDS), and integrase to integrate back into DNA.

Someone else brought up HIV/AIDS which is also a coronavirus but what sets HIV/AIDS apart from the rest is that it has access to the nucleus of cells with a "nuclear access signal" whereas COVID and the mRNA/proteins developed by the vaccine do not.

Oh they changed the definition of vaccines to grow with growing science

 

[Expectvectors24]

Not getting the vaccine should be a choice. However I highly doubt the FAA is going to provide you duty time for you to comply with the testing because of your choice nor should they.

Weird...what's the definition you were working with?

The faa ain’t gonna require shit. If they want testing they will be paying me to go through testing. I’m not going on my own
