Common COVIDiocy: Data Proves that COVID Deaths are PRIMARILY among the Unvaxxed

AP did an article back in June about May 2021 data from CDC, and shows that virtually ALL reported deaths of COVID are from the unvaxxed. 

Only 150 of the 18000 COVID deaths in May are fully vaccinated. 0.8%

And the number of COVID hospitalizations that are fully vaccinated: 107K, or 1.1%. 

Do keep in mind that not all states record breakthrough infections or sought accurate reports, so the numbers are likely underreported, but unlike to sway the numbers by a large quantity.

And the numbers are going to be even WORSE for the unvaxxed soon, with omicron variant, because several of the monoclonal antibody treatment such as Regeneron shows little to no effect on omicron. So far, in lab tests only 3 antibodies treatment are effective against omicron, and only one of the three is based in the US. 

Given that Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine are placebos at best, the only thing they WOULD accept and are actually effective are these monoclonal antibodies. And now that most of them are worthless against omicron, the unvaxxed basically has little to no choice: get vaxxed now, or wait for COVID to catch them and pray it doesn't kill them, while clogging up ICU beds and whatnot. All in the name of "freedom".

COVIDiocy Highlighted; Antivaxxers Jokes Made it onto Jimmy Kimmel Show

The Jimmy Kimmel Show highlighted the hypocrisy of anti-vaxxers doing everything they can to avoid the most studied topic in recent years: the COVID-19 vaccine, that they are going to extreme measures that are MUCH LESS studied for safety or effectiveness than the COVID vaccines. 

We've previously mentioned Ivermectin, an antiparasitic medicine primarily used on animals, but is also available in reduced strength for human use, mainly for people in third-world countries still in danger of catching parasites. Ivermectin has no known antiviral properties, and COVID is caused by a coronavirus. The FDA and the manufacturer have repeatedly pointed out that Ivermectin doesn't work for COVID and has dangerous side effects, yet the QNuts, including some doctors who claimed to be "experts" on Ivermectin use, continue to push it for COVID treatment. 

And because you used to be able to buy Ivermectin at any feed store, some desperados have resorted to buying the large animal version and tried to calculate a dose safe for human use from it, often with disastrous consequences. There were several cases of overdose in New Mexico, as well as an uptick in calls to the Poison Control hotline regarding Ivermectin overdoses. 

As the mania spread through Qnut communities, actual animal lovers can't get the meds for their animals, that feed stores near Las Vegas are requiring that you show a picture of you and your horse before you can buy the large animal Ivermectin. And thus the Jimmy Kimmel joke: they rather spend hours Photoshopping themselves into a horse photo than get the free vaccine you can get at any local pharmacy.  

Ivermectin desperados may have been making do with Heartgard, a heartworm medicine for dogs or cats, which also has Ivermectin as a primary ingredient. There are unverified stories of people going to veterinary clinics and demanding that they be sold Heartgard. 

Then there's the monoclonal antibody treatment, sometimes called Regeneron. Those are made in a lab, costs a LOT of money, it's considered "investigational", not even experimental. In fact, if you're already hospitalized for COVID, you can't get it. And here again, Jimmy Kimmel pointed out the hypocrisy: anti-vaxxers don't trust the most studied item around the entire world in the past two years: two little shots of the COVID vaccine, yet they do trust being pumped full of lab-created antibodies that requires an IV. 

The anti-vaxxers are irrational. And irrational people do crazy things. And guess who's PAYING for all this? The taxpayers. 

Don't be irrational. Don't be a COVIDiot. Get #vaxxed.
