So are you talking about people that have never been vaccinated for anything or people that haven't had a covid or flu shot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just curious what an anti vax moron is to you. Is it someone without all vaccines? Without covid shots? Someone who doesn't take a flu shot? Is it someone who took 5 covid shots but stopped and is now no longer up to date? My buddies girlfriend got covid jabs just so she could go to cactus club and that girl is the definition of a moron so.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddies girlfriend got covid jabs just so she could go to cactus club and that girl is the definition of a moron so.... I will say it probably refers to your first two questions, but with context. It obviously doesn't refer to those who medically cannot get vaccines, but this group is a tiny minority. An example of an anti-vaxx moron. Sherri Tenpenny (her medical license in Ohio is suspended). She went in a public forum and stated that the Covid vaccines magnetize your body. It refers to people who refuse vaccines on tinfoil hat grounds. It's people who claim that there are tons and tons of people dropping dead because of the vaccines. It's people who claim their illnesses are due to vaccine shedding (not a thing). That is what I think of when the words anti-vaxx morons are said or typed out. Hell, I think I even used the phrase here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so what you're saying is if even if you have all your childhood vaccines and refused to take a new covid shot you are an anti vax moron? (Other than medically as you said). Even if you never said weird shit like sherry from Ohio or sat in an inflatable hot tub in Ottawa? Then why not if you no longer get covid or flu shots? They are still being recommended after all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are still being recommended after all You can keep poking holes in what people type but are not likely to make a dent in how they are thinking. I'd say 'anti-vaxx moron' means two things. One, they are opposed to one or more types of vaccinations, and two, the reasons they give for that decision are foolish. I am unconcerned if you disagree with my definition of the term.

Ok got it I'm not at all talking about what I think people should have done, apart from then fact that I agreed with the vast majority of scientists and medical professionals. What they were saying made perfect sense to me. I would really need to know the reasons why someone is anti-vax, or what they say and do about it, before I called them foolish.

Plenty of current adults fall into this. The problem is these adults can have children. Children who aren't getting their vaccines. There are TONS of examples of this kind of moron.

Ok got it That’s how old people and extreme left end of spectrum people think. You’re with us or against us… no room for discussion or questioning things. It’s like embracing and towing socialism of the nationalistic variety. This is why (in the last 2 years, the biggest jump) the south western corner of BC has become isolated from ALL of Canada. The majority of Canada has now seen through the BS spoon fed to them of pretty much every issue spun by the media and government, but the little tiny pocket of south western BC can’t even fathom it and seems to be isolating itself from the rest of Canada and is ignorantly becoming increasingly unaware or unable to relate to the majority of Canadians elsewhere.

Is that for the last booster shot? I assumed the number was much higher than that... FYI, I've stopped taking the shots, so has pretty much everyone else I know under the age of 50. I don't believe it is even recommended anymore for people under the age of 50... The CDC recommended that people 50 to 64 years old with underlying conditions get a booster. But it's optional for younger adults. They should assess their risks and possibly consult with a doctor before getting a booster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
