Coming up with lists of people you or I know, means nothing. I don't know as many as you people claim to have this ongoing fad. But, I know that you all aren't big on the science side of all of this, yet let's see. Herd Immunity? Do you know how that works?

Sister Alvear, how does herd immunity works?

Re: Farmers Protest? Truckers Protest?

How many churches (missionary) and domestic are still pushing the COVID narrative and encouraging vaccinations?

Re: Farmers Protest? Truckers Protest?

Covid-19 went through our church strong back in mid-2020. We were all exposed and thereafter sick the night I proposed to my now-wife at church. My father was very ill with it, and he was out of work for well over a month. His energy level never got back to where it was, and now that he's been stricken with two strokes, his energy is even lower.

In saying that, Covid-19 is a real illness. People have actually died from it, or so the medical reports say. I do think it's over-hyped, over-blown, and not as rapidly spreading as the news would have us believe. I have not nor will I take the vaccines. I've turned down different jobs that required the vaccines for employment.

I've seen your picture, you are unhealthy. Also, the above cannot be verified to any degree which would prove a pandemic. Same thing with me using my family and friends to prove the opposite.

The what? "the medical report say?" What medical report? Are you presenting a narrative? What are you talking about? You see how this goes? Now I don't know anyone who has died from COVID. Not a one, and therefore my personal experience cannot be used to prove, or disprove a pandemic. What medical reports?

Do you really contemplate what you write? I mean BF, think about what you are saying here. You believe the reports are over blown, hyped, but in the previous thoughts you posted you bring up "the medical report say?" Do you understand this is why the narrative has failed?

Why not? Based on what reasoning do you have that you would not take the vaccine? Did you come to this conclusion because of "the medical report?"

You see where I'm going with this?

Do you understand herd immunity? How does it work, and how does vaccination play a part in the process?

Re: Farmers Protest? Truckers Protest?

Praying ( I mean that) you never get it...and I do think a lot has to do with the immune system...however I am not a doctor or anything like that ...so I really don't have answers. I know I had it and almost died...

Thank you for your prayers. But, actually the above has a lot to do with my question I asked you concerning herd immunity.

Yes, it does have a lot to do with a good healthy immune system. Therefore I asked you the question concerning herd immunity. The whole, "I'm not a doctor" defense is quickly dealt with "did you take biology in school?" Simply, we are taught in High School about immunity in biology. But, even if you were sleeping through that class, you as an adult wouldn't need to go through four years of medical school, to give me the simple answer concerning herd immunity.

Here is WebMD's definition.

"Herd immunity, or community immunity, is when a large part of the population of an area is immune to a specific disease. If enough people are resistant to the cause of a disease, such as a virus or bacteria, it has nowhere to go. While not every single individual may be immune, the group as a whole has protection."

We are over two years into the whole COVID hullabaloo, therefore just by basic herd immunity alone makes the odds of ME getting the virus even less. That's forgoing your heartfelt prayers for me not to get it. Which I covet by the way. Now, let's add a vaccine (with multiple boosters) into the mix. The reason for vaccines is to speed up herd immunity, so couple the vaccines with natural herd immunity and now my odds of getting this so called COVID flu bug is even more greatly reduced. This is all good news, for everyone. Even you Pepsi Cola Birthday Cake eaters. The bug has run its course, the bad news and evil tidings to people like me, is all but removed. We made it through the tribulation and are sitting happy on the other side of the red sea. Praise Jesus in His wonderful administration of giving His children the ability to think, and to process logic. What a wonderful King we have in Jesus that He does not cater to fear mongering, but caters to peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.
