YouTube Blocks All Anti-Vaccine Content

LESS danger by getting vaccinated. You like to avoid this fact.

Do you not care about reducing the threat to others? Or do you not care about others?

Less doesn't mean you're not endangering people.

Only if I have COVID. Id stay in. I can't go to work if I'm presumed sick (rather) anyway. I'm not one to worry about bring asymptomatic all of the sudden. I've always been indifferent in part choice in part not.

People are not considered fully vaccinated until 14 days after their final injection. So if they get Covid in the meantime they are counted as unvaccinated. So I don’t think the claim that the latest outbreak is due to the unvaccinated is entirety accurate.
Because you have your own definition of what a fully vaccinated person is?

I wish more people would understand that.

It's not about vaccination or spreading one's own particular view on what's deemed as misinformation or not.

It's about fighting incursions of power and control over others.

Yeah. I don't think most people who chose not to vaccinate are against vaccines just government influence and push. It could be Advil for all it mattered. It's normal to be skeptical. If to your doctor especially to those who don't know you.

Lightly seared on the reality grill.
Less doesn't mean you're not endangering people.

But it does mean that you're doing the best you can to avoid putting people at risk. Jeez, this isn't difficult, if you care a jot about others, you'll do all you can to be the least risk to them. People who drive sober are still a potential risk to others, but that isn't an excuse for driving when you're drunk. You are less of a risk if you're sober, not no risk at all.

You should be. You can be asymptomatic whether you're vaccinated or not - and you're less of a risk to others if you're vaccinated.

Not my own definition...


In general, people are considered fully vaccinated: ±

  • 2 weeks after their second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or
  • 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine
COVID-19 Vaccination
I'm aware of the definition.

You appeared to be trying to say you don't agree with that definition. Hence my comment about you making your own definition.

Then you would be wrong. If one gets the vaccination too late to make a difference one is still technically unvaccinated. If they spread the disease it would almost certainly be due to getting the disease before the vaccine took effect. And have you even tried to analyze how small that number is? It is not large enough to make much of a difference. The statistics clearly show that the outbreak was caused by the unvaccinated. You might want to feed your personal fantasy with wild explanations, but they will not hold up to analysis.

Maybe so, but my thought is that everyone is bias one way or another. What matters is the information correct.
What matters is the message being sent. If it is based on sound information and reasoning then it can be useful. If it is twisted on bias, the message is useful only to tug at the emotions of the easily lead. In other words, the message is useless.

I think it is very accurate based on the information I have seen.

An example of bias twisting information is to claim no risk for people under 30, when the data supplied to make that claim shows 4,000 deaths and that those under 30 are at risk. Just a lower risk based on the supplied data. And that data doesn't include people under 30 that may have had to deal with prolonged infection and serious complications during recovery. Risks that people under 30 also have.

The bias was a false claim of no risk so everyone under 30 can just ignore the virus like it is a cold. The reality is that they still face a risk.

YouTube will block all anti-vaccine content, expanding on a policy it currently has in place:



YouTube blocks all anti-vaccine content

Since YouTube is a privately owned website rather than a publicly owned outlet, I agree with this decision and hope it helps in the efforts to combat misinformation about the pandemic. It is long overdue, but better late than never.

I trust most everybody is capable of researching scientific data as well as obtaining reliable information from credible sources. I'm confident most people can decipher for themselves which information is correct as opposed to which information is false. Therefore, I don't consider there being a need for social media sites to ban information they've deemed to be false.

You have more confidence in the data analysis skills of the general public than I do. From what I see, many do not seem to know how to determine sound information from false information. False information has been the basis used to politicize the issue in my opinion.

What about left wing misinformation?
Give us some examples of this.

Most of the anger I’ve seen at school boards had been about the pornographic material in school libraries or being taught to little kids, not about vaccines because young kids don’t get them yet. As far as masks, studies have shown they become infested with germs and are detrimental to the health of children who wear them all day.
Pornographic material? So you are out of touch with what is currently going on?

Thank you for the Happy Birthday wishes! I feel like I'm 26, about half my actual age.
You are welcome.

That is funny, I feel much the same way. With a few minor caveats. But that is about half my age too.

I hope you have a great day.

This makes them a publisher and they should be treated as such.
