I think there are many things about which politicians can and should be dragged, but this isn't one of them. A significant proportion of them may be absolute cunts who deserve a good dose of the rona (everyone will have their own views who forms that percentage), but there are a number of reasons why it is important for politicians in high office to have the vaccine and be seen to be having it.

Impressive.  I type the c-word and end up with the Chaucerian queynte instead.  :-)

You have the naughty words filter turned on. You can turn it off by going into Profile > Account Settings > Look and Layout > check the box next to Leave words uncensored.

You do however get credit for recognizing Middle English, you're clearly an educated man.

Wrong.  And what's more your own self-described "national treasure" Ilhan Omar didn't mince words either, calling it "shameful."

Ilhan Omar
@IlhanMN
It would makes sense if it was age, but unfortunately it’s of importance and its shameful.
We are not more important then frontline workers, teachers etc. who are making sacrifices everyday.
Which is why I won’t take it.
People who need it most, should get it.
Full stop.

Serious question. Is seemingly our entire top political leadership getting the vaccine ahead of others because of their age or their importance?


edit: Personally, I don't have a problem with politicos getting the vaccine, they should....my post was more about tweaking the diva-ish photo-op optics and the dramatic, self-serving quote of hers that accompanied it.  No one's a "hands off" sacred cow.  They're politicians, not celebrities, not rock stars.
I'm not reading all that, my reply was about the facetious take on AOC. Not about vaccine priority.

This. Some people are skeptical because the government has a history of treating people who look like them as lab rats, other people are antivax because they saw a YouTube video from someone with a personality disorder, but whatever the case, it's good to normalize and encourage vaccination.

I did not know Ryan Griffin was on the COVID list.

He's one of the 99.99% that survived it.
So it turns out, Italian Seafood was right an everyone can go freak themselves.

Deadliest year in American history, keep repeating this dumbass line though.

You had better hope none of your friends or family die from it or you’re going to look like a pretty big poopchute just to get across some internet jokes.

Not a joke it's a fact, 99.99% survive. Sorry it's not as scary as you'd like it to be. And the death rate is about flat line.

I’m sorry that you still haven’t figured out that the problem with this virus isn’t the death rate, but the transmission rate. No one is scared but you are acting like a freaking idiot. It’s really not that hard to figure out.

This is the deadliest year in U.S. history, with deaths expected to top 3 million for the first time — due mainly to the coronavirus pandemic.

Final mortality data for this year will not be available for months. But preliminary numbers suggest that the United States is on track to see more than 3.2 million deaths this year, or at least 400,000 more than in 2019.

U.S. deaths increase most years, so some annual rise in fatalities is expected. But the 2020 numbers amount to a jump of about 15 percent, and could go higher once all the deaths from this month are counted.

That would mark the largest single-year percentage leap since 1918, when tens of thousands of U.S. soldiers died in World War I and hundreds of thousands of Americans died in a flu pandemic. Deaths rose 46 percent that year, compared with 1917.

The excess mortality rate has always been the most ironclad rebuttal to covid deniers.

https://ourworldindata.org/excess-mortality-covid

That link has an interactive chart in it that lets you compare different countries and their excess deaths throughout the year.
