Bike Fall

I’m gonna rain on your parade for a second and say that Trump supporters choosing not to get vaccinated is of no concern of your’s or mine; we were vaccinated (I’m assuming you were at least) so why act like we’re the ones in danger when it’s the other way around?

Could you point out where I had “me” in that meme?

I wasn’t referring to you in the meme, I was just saying I don’t blame Trump’s for putting their own lives at risk because I don’t trust the vaccine will save them.

And that you shouldn’t blame them either.

Where do I mention “(Trumper’s) lives?”

The meme isn’t about me blaming Trumpers for anything. Quite the opposite.

Yeah, your meme only said they blame everything as Biden’s fault, which is coincidentally true because the guy’s a moron.

You appear to be a moron as well. The economy’s growth slowed due to the delta variant’s spread, which was driven by relaxed mitigation measures and low vaccination rates.

Not to turn this political, but there is real data showing areas where Trump had a larger percentage of the vote doing worse against COVID since Biden’s election.

The variant forms from vaccinated people.

Thank you comrade. That’s completely counterfactual. Viruses cannot mutate if they cannot reproduce or spread.

The vaccine does not stop contacting or spreading of covid. Viruses do mutate due to immune pressure faced by viruses after treatments like VACCINATION, convalescent plasma, or monoclonal antibodies.

The vaccine cuts down on contracting and spreading covid, and it also causes the virus to replicate less as the body will destroy it faster (somewhere around 2 days in the rare case of a breakthrough infection versus a week in the unvaccinated). Viruses don’t mutate due to pressures. They mutate on a fairly stable schedule given the reproductive method.

Those mutations are then either beneficial or not. An example of a mutation that is not beneficial: Down’s syndrome, which you may have based on your complete lack of understanding given an internet connection. An example of a beneficial mutation is sickle-cell, which makes the person who has it less likely to suffer diseases found in Africa, which is why black people have that mutation. The same is true of mutations that allowed people to drink milk. It is thought that Europe went through a period where this was beneficial, so all those who had the mutation survived, causing Europeans to be much less likely to have lactose intolerance.

Currently the delta variant, which was first detected in India prior to vaccination being widespread there, was a mutation that occurred, as stated above, due to massive replication, and it out competed other viruses due to its ability to replicate extremely quickly, causing it to be more transmissible.

Viruses do not think “wouldn’t it be great if I could do (insert thing)” and then replicate a virus that can do that anymore than you can wish your child to be smart. You just don’t have the genes to do that. Your child will be what your child is, and whether your child is able to reproduce will determine whether your genes go to the next generation after that child.

So, to clear all this up: mutations occur because reproduction is occurring. The fact that a mutation is beneficial against a vaccine or mitigation measure is not what caused the mutation, but a mutation that evades any mitigation measure will make that virus more likely to reproduce.

You have the way evolution works ass backward.

I made this in honor of you. Thanks for letting me be the one in the suit!
