10. This is why smart people are getting vaccinated

Morons taking hydroxychloroquine and antivax dimwits will be facing the full threat of infection.

Vaccinated people won't be. Oh, they might get exposed and a slight infection will set in, but disease will not follow. The immune system kicks in too quickly for that.

I can't believe people are still taking hydroxychloroquine, the word has been out for nearly a year that it's ineffective as either a preventive or a treatment, it only works on several strains of malaria and a load of autoimmune diseases. Its worst adverse effect is blindness, which can happen a couple of years after it's discontinued. Bet they don't know about that, either.

Maybe this should be included on the dentist's review pages... hlthe2b Jun 2021 #1
