    The vaccines do not make people more asymptomatic.

    The vaccine does stop disease progression to the severe illness level. 

    If you are infected, you can transmit the illness to others.

    If you aren't, you can't.

    There is a lot of issues with the vaccine:

    - the effectiveness in testing doesn't match real life

    - we still have no idea how long the immunity lasts for people who it provides protections.  The information is still all over the board from 60 days on one study in the New England Journal of Medicine to so long that we don't know how long because the people who got it in July still have antibodies in the therapeutic levels.

    We know that masks have never been much of a benefit:

    - 70% of covid transmission occurs within your own home, where you don't social distance or wear a mask

    - According to the FDA, masks that most people wear are ineffective, filtering less than 30% of covid viral particles. 

    Actually cases are up more about 40% in NY State in the last week

    March 19 approx 6200

    March 26 approx 8700

    We need to "start" pushing vitamin D3.  (we should have done this in March 2020, when there became the suspicion that it reduced infection rates and illness rates.

    - We still don't know the exactly benefit, but the way the we ignore it simply because it doesn't invite big pharma to the party is stupid.

    - If it works, it's GREAT.  If it doesn't work... then it goes along with the rest that doesn't work (stay at home orders, mask mandates, etc).

    If the vac doesn't work, why the pressure to get it?  It's unproven technology for something with a >99% survival rate among healthy people.

    Until everyone is immunized they are risking a superbug with this one. No responsibility or intent to tell the public adequate info related to what Covid 19 is and they exasperated its spread.
