I don't think you can know either way. Perhaps you still would have had a mild case.

So I had these exact symptoms back in Feb of 2020, so now Im almost positive I had covid back then. I never get fevers and I havent had the flu in a very very long time. This started the same way: chills in middle of the night, woke up to fever and overall crappy feeling- went to work anyways and took dayquil. Not much sneezing or coughing unlike a flu. Fever stuck around 2 days, started to go away, come back the next night and then gone. I remember still being pretty tired the rest of the week.
This recent illness is very much like that but overall much milder. Its true I cant attribute it to the vaccine. Maybe my immune system already remembered it from Feb of 2020 and responded, maybe the MRNA ahit did the trick. Honestly I dont care, Im not in the hospital, my family is ok, and bourbon still tastes like bourbon.

I heard on the car AM radio that NFL is making unvaccinated players wear yellow wristbands
, and that some higher court ruled that private and .gov entities could require vaccinations. It's all coming together for the ruling class.


I've heard and read comments from some of the the more disturbed Americans that the unvaccinated are selfishly putting them, the compliant vaccinees at risk of illness and death, and that the unvaccinated deserve be isolated, to get sick and to die.


My first thought was, I think a few people (esp. GOP fuckworts) owe Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga. an apology for her comments likening current events to how the Third Reich treated its Jewish citizens.

So the best option for NFL teams is to not put the yellow band on running backs, receivers or the quarterback, so that the vaccinated D players will stay away from them, boom instant touchdown!

When has the Justice Department ever weighed in this quick?


Department of Justice Declares COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates Legal

https://www.theepochtimes.com/...8Z%2FN63aFuC0z4nENOk

Federal law doesn't prohibit public agencies, private business from requiring vaccines for employees

BY JACK PHILLIPS July 27, 2021 Updated: July 27,
2021

The Department of Justice concluded in an opinion that federal law doesn’t prohibit public agencies and private businesses from requiring COVID-19 vaccines under the Food and Drug Administration’s emergency use authorization.

On July 26, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, California, and New York City said they would require some of their government workers to get the COVID-19 shot or be tested weekly. Veterans Affairs, with the move, became the first federal agency to mandate the vaccine.

The Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel on July 26 wrote (pdf) that because access to COVID-19 vaccines is more commonplace, “numerous educational institutions, employers, and other entities across the United States” have said they will require some individuals to be vaccinated against the virus as a condition of employment, participation, benefit, service, or relationship.

“For instance,” it wrote, “certain schools will require vaccination in order for students to attend class in person, and certain employers will require vaccination as a condition of employment.”

The opinion, which noted that some have questioned the legality of such mandates, concluded that federal law concerning the FDA’s emergency use authorizations (EUA) on COVID-19 vaccines made by Moderna, Pfizer, and Johnson & Johnson doesn’t “prohibit public or private entities from imposing vaccine requirements, even when the only vaccines available are those authorized under EUAs.”

With the Justice Department’s statement and the July 26 Veterans Affairs mandate, it appears to leave the door open for other federal agencies to make COVID-19 vaccines a requirement for employees.

Rutgers University became the first university to mandate them for both employees and students earlier this year. And last week, Carnegie Hall in Manhattan announced that it will require audience members, staff, and performers to provide proof of vaccination before entering the building.

The Justice Department’s opinion comes as messaging from mainstream media outlets, some government officials, and world leaders around vaccines has become increasingly forceful in recent days. Amid reports of an increase in “Delta” variant cases, authorities in France and Italy have recently introduced vaccine passport-type systems for entering private businesses, including restaurants, gyms, theaters, and more, a move that triggered widespread demonstrations across Europe over the weekend.

Responding to the vaccine opinion, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio told MSNBC: “Public sector entities need to move as quickly as possible. This DOJ decision is important. I think that will be helpful. We have got to put pressure on this situation.”

Throughout the pandemic, the federal government has implemented few COVID-19-related restrictions and namely has targeted travel and public transportation. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued guidance—not mandates—around mask-wearing.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki, who has given conflicting statements around whether the administration supports vaccine passports, told reporters during a briefing last week that the administration isn’t requiring officials to get vaccinated.

“No, we have not mandated it,” Psaki in response to a question about whether the White House has made COVID-19 shots mandatory. She appeared to say that the White House offered the vaccines to every employee.

Some Republican-led states, meanwhile, have passed laws that forbid the usage of vaccine passports in government agencies and offices. Florida went a step further in May after Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, signed a law that prohibits all private businesses from using vaccine passports in his state.

I move for two masks, it just makes common sense that it likely would be more effective.

This ought to do it.




"The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people."
"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
"I did," said Ford, "it is."
"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"
"It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want."
"You mean they actually vote for the lizards."
"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in."

As an add on to the VA shot requirement being initiated, the shitbags will go after all federal agencies next.

Time to start looking for an freedom friendly attorney. Or a doctor/priest that will sign off on an exemption.

Great Video at link: One of the best I have seen.

Dr. Bret Weinstein: ‘Perverse Incentives’ in the Vaccine Rollout and the Censorship of Science

https://www.theepochtimes.com/...science_3885796.html

“We are exposing a huge fraction of the population to what is in effect a scientific experiment, except that it isn’t a scientific experiment because we are deliberately avoiding collecting data that would allow us to evaluate the impact,” says Dr. Bret Weinstein, an evolutionary biologist and co-host of the DarkHorse podcast.

In this deep-dive with Dr. Weinstein, we discuss COVID-19 vaccine safety, the efficacy of repurposed drugs, the Wuhan lab leak theory, and this new age of censorship. What scientific data and information is currently being denied to the public?

My 81 year old mother in law lives to watch the news, but is slipping cognitively. Now even though she’s vaccinated, she’s more confused then when this started last year.

It didn’t have to be this way.
