I think it must be the racist Doctors/Nurses in the US, hating that black man. God Damn white supremacy, we should poll all the doctors on audiogon...how many have a personal collection of KKK Hoods.
The coronavirus pandemic is having an impact all over the world, but a disturbing trend is evident in the U.S.: People of color, particularly African Americans, are experiencing more serious illness and death due to COVID-19 than white people. |
@prof I will make sure to leave you my dying testimony about my changed vaccine views. How should it go?? I wish I took the vaccine, I repent. Can I please take the vaccine now? Is it too late? Please take the vaccine, don’t be me, I am a dumb evil antivaxxer, Russian disninformation is directly responsible for my death?
Is that good? If you have any suggestions, I can add other lines to the script. Maybe we can turn this into an advertising campaign...... oh .....just like constantly bombard people with the same story over and over and over again......that might be good don’t you think? |
@nnicola: "I think Ron's video is a pretty strong argument for getting vaccinated, even though he does not explicitly state that."
Based strictly upon his words, Ron's message could be interpreted as " This terrible thing has happened, out of the blue, to our family and there was nothing we could've done about it", as if there had been no advance warning and no possible strategy for avoiding or minimizing the impacts.And the responses I've read on youtube have been largely in this same vein. I don't know the guy so I have no idea what he might be thinking but not saying. There was certainly no explicit acknowledgment that he could have handled it differently -- that he chose to ignore the advice of the great majority of health practitioners, world-wide and in so doing, brough this calamity down upon himself and his loved ones. Given that he's suffered significantly, one might think, for the sake of other families who are anti-vax, Ron might be inclined to make a far less ambivalent statement. Perhap he is still too "shell-shocked" to think of anyone else or perhaps he's still convinced he made the right decision, like the Covid patients dying in ICU's who still refuse the vaccine. To say the degree to which he side-stepped the massive "elephant in the room" was "striking" would be, from my perspective, an understatement. I hope that what you suggest is indeed true-- that his video may serve as a "strong argument for getting vaccinated" -- but based upon the virulence and quantity of anti-vax posts on this thread, I have my doubts.
