Is this what happens in countries with single-payer healthcare systems?

No. I'm very very pro-science.
All of my statements about threat were meant to be towards all of humanity.

Meaning 'people' can ingest something that can kill them instantly (cyanide in the water supply) or something that can kill them over a period of years (lead or rust in water).

What time frame does a thing have to shorten human life by before you would acknowledge it as a 'threat' to humanity?
04-21-2021 , 07:49 PM
I wouldn't.

How many hours a day before you wouldn't call it momentary?

Are you saying if the worlds water sources got tainted in a way that people did not know and were drinking it regularly and it would cause all people to die in a week, a month or year or dozen years, you would not consider that a threat to humanity?

I am legit confused here?

Food consumption I would always consider a momentary joy. Even science would agree with that. The endorphin rushes, the feeling of being sated, they are momentary.

If you are asking is it possible a person could sit at a buffet bar long enough to make it permanent or ever lasting, I guess in a Monty Python type of way, but no,not in reality.

Doesn't sound like you enjoy food very much. I'm still enjoying an amazing Thai beef curry I had yesterday. Yum ...

Creosote was an amateur. Take that bucket away

When I was a kid my grandmother used to do that--only we didn't even make it to rare. Rye bread raw meat pattied up onions salt/pepper And a promise it would put hair on your chest I still eat most things pretty rare but I like it to hit the flames a little bit at least.

you forgot the capers, ww.
04-22-2021 , 01:35 PM
I'm sure they were around. Maybe I might've blocked it out of my memory. Was kind of a picky kid actually--still don't think I've ever eaten capers on purpose--unless one slipped by with some swordfish or something. Speaking of rabbit turds that's another one that kinda scarred me as a kid--poor little things never stood a chance

Teachers at a miami private school told they won't be allowed to return next year if they get vaccinated

The letter that was sent to staff seems pretty reasonable:

Quote:
To recap what was discussed:

1. COVID-19 Vaccines are still in an experimental stage. They are not yet FDA Approved, rather they have Emergency Use Authorization. Clinical trials are not scheduled to be complete until 2023. It will be years before we have reliable information regarding the short and long term effects of the COVID-19 vaccines.

2. COVID-19 Vaccines are not a life saving medication. They have not been proven to prevent death from COVID or to prevent transmission of COVID.

3. I believe strongly in Health Freedom and “my body, my choice” and for that reason, did not prevent employees from choosing to take the COVID-19 vaccine prior to April 21, 2021. However, reports have surfaced recently of non-vaccinated people being negatively impacted by interacting with people who have been vaccinated. There have been thousands of reports of menstrual cycles being impacted and a 366% Increase in Miscarriages.

Wow.

THE GOVERNMENT IS GOING TO IMPOSE VACCINE PASSPORTS ON US.

ALSO, HERES AN ANTI-VACCINE PASSPORT THAT WILL MAKE YOU LOSE YOUR JOB.

I AM A REASONABLE PERSON!

WTF is The Daily Expose? I'm sure their stats are super solid.

Here is Politifact's take on the daily expose article.

If someone can lose their job because they refuse to get a vaccination, then it shouldn't be problematic if someone can lose their job because they get a vaccination.

Hopefully she believes that killing unborn babies shouldn't be a right.

No, that logic does not work any more than saying an employer should be able to tell you if you take your heart med's you will be fired.

That is a very specious analogy you are trying to draw there lagtight.

If the heart medication could have an adverse effect of someone else, why would that not be a fireable offense?

Personal anecdote:

Wearing a facemask is quite harmful to my health. But, I wear one anyway out of respect for others.

If someone wants to fire me because I won't wear a mask at work, they can fire me, even though wearing a mask is very bad for my health.

I think the word 'of' there is supposed to be 'on' but even with that adjustment I cannot understand what you mean?

Are you parroting the idea that people who get vaccinated put those not vaccinated at risk of miscarriages and other reproductive problems just by standing in proximity to them?
