blue_gold_84 Posted August 12, 2021 Report Share Posted August 12, 2021 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/aug/12/french-police-on-alert-after-covid-testing-centre-attacks Quote French police have been urged to step up security around Covid vaccination and testing centres after a spate of attacks and vandalism in the last month. As France prepares for a fifth weekend of demonstrations against the health pass, the interior minister, Gérald Darmanin, has written to police chiefs calling for greater vigilance. French media reported that the request had come directly from Emmanuel Macron. It came after the ministry reported that 22 health sites had been vandalised, including five test centres, 15 vaccination centres, a medical laboratory and a health centre, since 12 July. A number were sprayed with swastikas or graffiti reading “collabos” (collaborators), “Nazi” or “genocide”, or yellow stars. These misinformed. ignorant covidiots are just insufferable.

Tracker Posted August 12, 2021 Report Share Posted August 12, 2021 'We can't live forever': Marjorie Taylor Greene gives bizarre argument against Covid vaccine approval U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has spent the week attacking what will soon be FDA final approval of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. Thursday was no different, with the Georgia Republican falsely denigrating the effectiveness of the vaccine and falsely claiming that hospitals across the country are not overflowing with COVID patients. "We're human, we can't live forever," Greene, a far right wing conspiracy theorist, antisemite, white nationalist, and purveyor of coronavirus disinformation told the far right wing streaming website Real America's Voice. "We are going to catch all kinds of diseases and illnesses," she added, suggesting that vaccine mandates, which have existed since before the United States was founded, would turn the nation into "an authoritarian regime."

Tracker Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 Four school teachers in one Florida county die in one day from COVID as DeSantis continues to ban mandates Four school teachers in Broward County, Florida just died from COVID-19 in one day. Three were unvaccinated, CNN reports (video below.) Republican Governor Ron DeSantis continues to refuse to allow any mask or vaccine mandates as coronavirus cases, hospitalizations, and deaths explode in his state. “Within a 24-hour span, we had an assistant teacher pass away, a teacher at her school pass away, an elementary teacher pass away and another teacher at a high school," Broward Teachers Union President Anna Fusco told CBS News. Broward County's School Board this week voted to defy DeSantis' ban on masks mandates. Florida recorded 24,869 new coronavirus cases on Thursday, far more than any state in the nation. Less than half of Florida's total population is fully vaccinated.

Hinshaw at this point is irrelevant, she has proven to be little more than a government mouthpiece, but shandro and kenney they just don't understand what they're talking about and try and make sciencey decisions without knowing what they're talking about.

See kenney is big on vaccines, it makes his jib easier. So I don't think it's a case of willful ignorance this time.

The real danger is that unvaccinated people are often in pockets. If a new variant gets into those pockets, case counts will rise fast.
