Obviously her opinion is that people should take the vaccine. BTW: I doubt that you are really a student of pretty much anything based on how you have addressed the topic of this thread. You have not made one coherent argument at any point of this conversation. I gave you a chance to offer your solution(s) to ending the pandemic and you responded by just posting a youtube link. You repeatedly acknowledge that you have no medical expertise whatsoever, yet you cling to baseless conspiracy theories and you refuse to listen to the sound advice of medical professionals or the FDA. Now you are suddenly a fan of Rand Paul of all people. You call yourself a student of Political Science yet Freeze is actually a distinguished Political Science professor at A&T and has literally written a best selling book about African American history. Yet you continue to ignore his sound advice about taking the vaccine. Just because you lack understanding of something, that should not give you a green light to invent your own fantasies. That is what the ancient Greeks did when they looked up at the stars and wondered how the universe was created. Be smarter than them. Challenge yourself to better understand math, science and technology. The conspiracy theories you cling to may seem like an easy, neat way to explain a complex situation, but they are really just delaying your own intellectual development. Not a fan of Rand Paul there were some nuggets of information in that hearing. For the ske of argument and in gterms of intellectual honesty listen to Dr. Christina Parks testimony before the Michigan Legislature and let me know whether you et al want to still consider me a nut. Good thing this is not yesteryear for you could have gone to court and have me committed/admitted to the asylum for the mentally disturbed. So whether you in your expertise can consider the information maybe we may see who is the conspiracy theorist or nut or both. I was not refering to the Greeks for which there is no thing called Greek philosophy I was refercing the Egyptian Mysteries System. Now I see where part of your comedy stems from.

And yet you still have not provided any information to consider. All you have done is ignored direction questions and referred us to other speakers, websites or youtube videos.
It is obvious you can not muster a single independent thought. You can not even explain your own position on this topic. Your entire existence is just to follow behind people who you believe are smarter and more charismatic than yourself.
This is a case study of how the weak minded are easily mislead.

It is obvious that you have a closed mind so be it. Continue your personal attacks on me all you want it is you that is in need of help for your intellectual dishonesty is remarkable including those who adhere to your position who are afraid to consider alternative view it is called dialectics.

With the announcement of the FDA, I feels a lot better about coercing people to get their vaccination, Pfizer only! Moderna's vaccine is the most effective, but Pfizer and J&J also protect well, CDC-led study says
By Maggie Fox, CNN
Updated 1:00 PM ET, Fri September 17, 2021(CNN)A head-to-head study of all three authorized coronavirus vaccines in the United States finds the Moderna vaccine is slightly more effective than Pfizer's in real-life use in keeping people out of the hospital, and Johnson & Johnson's Janssen vaccine comes in third, but still providing 71% protection. Pfizer's vaccine provided 88% protection against hospitalization, and Moderna's was 93% effective. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention led a nationwide study of vaccination involving more than 3,600 adults hospitalized for Covid-19 between March and August. "Among U.S. adults without immunocompromising conditions, vaccine effectiveness against COVID-19 hospitalization during March 11--August 15, 2021, was higher for the Moderna vaccine (93%) than the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine (88%) and the Janssen vaccine (71%)," the team wrote in the CDC's weekly report on death and disease, the MMWR. "Although these real-world data suggest some variation in levels of protection by vaccine, all FDA-approved or authorized COVID-19 vaccines provide substantial protection against COVID-19 hospitalization." They found that the biggest difference between the vaccine made by Moderna and Pfizer/BioNtech's vaccine was driven by a decline that started about four months after people were fully vaccinated with Pfizer's vaccine. "Differences in vaccine effectiveness between the Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine might be due to higher mRNA content in the Moderna vaccine, differences in timing between doses (3 weeks for Pfizer-BioNTech versus 4 weeks for Moderna), or possible differences between groups that received each vaccine that were not accounted for in the analysis," the team wrote. "A single dose of the Janssen viral vector vaccine had comparatively lower anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody response and vaccine effectiveness against COVID-19 hospitalizations," they added. "Understanding differences in vaccine effectiveness by vaccine product can guide individual choices and policy recommendations regarding vaccine boosters. All FDA-approved or authorized COVID-19 vaccines provide substantial protection against COVID-19 hospitalization." CDC worked with researchers across the country to study 3,689 patients at 21 hospitals in 18 states for the study. They also looked at antibodies in the blood of 100 healthy volunteers after they'd been vaccinated with one of the three available vaccines. www.cnn.com/2021/09/17/health/moderna-vaccine-most-effective-cdc-study/index.html

The board voted to allow booster shots for people age 65 years and upwards. And those that have diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and other high-risk factors. That should include the lot of us African-Americans unfortunately.

That should include the lot of us African-Americans unfortunately. Exactly. Those folks whose immune system is compromised in any way will be eligible to receive the booster well before reaching age 65.

A nurse's training didn't protect her from vaccine misinformation. Now, she's one of the victims of Covid-19
By Dan Simon and Theresa Waldrop, CNN Updated 7:15 AM ET, Tue September 21, 2021(CNN)Natalie Rise was a registered nurse in Idaho who loved her job as a home health care worker before she decided to stay at home with her special-needs twins, according to her brother, Daryl Rise. But her science-based training to become an RN was apparently no match for the disinformation about Covid-19 vaccines being shared across social media, according to her brother. Rise refused to be vaccinated, even as the virus surged in her city, Coeur d'Alene. And even as her mother lay in a coma in a hospital bed, fighting for life against Covid, Natalie advised her family against being vaccinated. "She was telling me not to get vaccinated," Daryl Rise told CNN. "I think it was from misinformation, I think it was falling into negative social media and bloggers, YouTubers."
