Yep.... They are definitely trying to kill off the bulk of the population If there was any doubt.... It's pretty clear now

Or are extremely delusional and have a terminal savior complex. You'd be surprised to know how much people believe these kinds of bullshits, even if they start out as lies.

"A good liar will eventually believe their own lies if they were truth from the very beginning." - some of the people of the early far-right I could talk to personally. I even heard the "Truth is not on our side" line a bit too much.

at least we can "find comfort" in the fact that republicans are unlikely to want to get vaccinated.

I live in Ontario, Canada. I can just walk in to the local pharmacy and get the Covid, flu, and RSV vaccine for free.

The True North Strong and Free (except Alberta, their government are fascist Trump bootlickers.)

RSV is available in the states, but you would have to be in the risk groups and its not eligible to everyone.

The GOP isn't just a metaphorical plague anymore.

"Pestilence" is such an underused word. They're a lot like locusts.

After seeing this, I attempted to check CVS for availability for myself and son since he just started back to school and hubby is immunocompromised from chemo, but they had a message stating they anticipate an updated one soon and currently didn't have it available. Good luck to everyone looking to protect themselves and others.

i would just ask your insurance if they allow vaccination at other pharmacies, like walgreens, i know they allow fre flu ones.

[–] Patches@ttrpg.network 2 points 9 hours ago

I've had the same message for ~2 months now. Not sure what is going on with CVS.

How soon before we get vaccinations with thoughts and prayers ?

[–] yumpsuit@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago

Prayers should be applied topically or to worn armor, written on parchment and attached to a stamped wax seal infused with holy oils.

Thoughts are often immunosuppressive and should be guarded against with tinfoil headwear or nerve staples.

Just got my second HPV vax and my understanding is I have to wait at least a month before I can have a different vaccine.

That said, I intend to get the Covid and Flu vax once its been a full month. They've never told me I can't do both of those at the same time.

i tried asking for meningicoccal vaccine, but im not at risk so i wasnt given one, or the hpv one,. i was asked about the chickenpox vaxxine once, but i had CPOX when i was young, and shingles when i was 20. i had the vax for it, i dint know, but it appears it doesnt stop or reduce the severity of HZ.

I've gotten Covid and Flu vax at the same time. I prefer it, I usually get a fever and my arm gets really sore. One time I tried one in each arm, and I had two sore arms for a couple days instead of one.
