Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Well, you're not taking into account the fact that there are nearly 8x as many vaccinated people in Ontario as there are unvaccinated.... so the fact that there's nearly a 50/50 split in the ICU means that your chances of hitting the ICU are about 8x higher unvaccinated.
With vaccines supposedly working so well as some claim in this thread, and 8x as many people are vaccinated - why are more fully vaccinated patients in the ICUs in Ontario province?
Why are those hospitals being overwhelmed with fully vaccinated patients?

lol.
I never made any claims about the hospitals being overwhelmed or anything else.
Your own data essentially says you're 8x-9x more likely to end up in the ICU if you are not vaccinated.
You can determine for yourself whether or not that means its working so well, I guess.
Anyone herd of John Abramson. Former family doctor who thinks Big Pharma is being criminal in how it manipulates data to get approval for new drugs. Apparently the DOJ agrees as companies like Pfizer have paid billions of dollars in fines.
He also says when doing peer review on clinical trials apparently the raw data is not available. That is crazy because the Scientific Method of determining science is supposed to allow for complete transparency of the peer review before something is called "science". Funny to hear people attack the raw data of other trials of non-approved treatments when the raw data for vaccine trials not available. Abramson says FDA and Pfizer fighting in court to prevent the vaccine trial data from going public. The FDA position can be explained because over half of their funding comes from Big Pharma.
John Abramson on Lex Fridman video is very revealing. Apparently big pharma has been caught hiding heart attacks in trials.
Some could argue this is good reason not to trust big pharma.
To be clear...John Abramson says people should get Covid vaccinated because the benefit in real world data is clear.
FTR.....the vast majority of Canadians do not appreciate what the trucking convoy is all about. They are blocking trade to The US, they are honking steadily causing all sorts of grief for citizens. They are blocking key traffic areas and taking up private space. They are breaking laws, and in some cases, using harassment to intimidate mask wearers. My daughter, who is a healthcare professional and works in a hospital, has been warned by the authorities to not wear scrubs or appear to be a healthcare worker, because protesters were in the area. How ironic and sad....the people who were our heroes throughout the pandemic subjected to ridicule in some cases, for doing their jobs to protect us.
And most Canadians (I read many editorials/posts) are not pleased about a small fringe group causing all this mayhem, declaring their loss of rights, when about 9 of 10 Canadians have sucked it up for 2 years to help the collective community. Canada is allowed this to carry on with minimal disciplinary action, I suppose to minimize violence, but Canadians expect more discipline, which is happening as of late. I believe countries like France have been far more proactive from that perspective.
I do not know one person who supports these people. And one of the leaders of this convoy was quoted as laughing about how easy this was, and how fun it's been to disrupt our nation's capital.
So if you read about our situation, remember, it's a "very small" fringe group, and there has been a load of unlawful behaviour. And some of the problem lies with those who are not Canadian.
Thoughts on the Hollywood elite who have been telling is to where masks, meanwhile they were partying at Superbowl maskless?
Meanwhile children on Monday forced to where masks at school all day.
Please someone explain the science on this one. 70,000 drinking and screaming in close proximity is safe, 30 little kids in a classroom is not ?

The same people saying science is behind them are the same people telling is to take new drugs with a poor peer review process as I mentioned in a couple posts before this one.
In SoCal schools no longer consider cloth masks effective and wearing a cloth mask does not count for the school mask mandate. Not the first time those claiming to represent science had put out bad news on masks.
Mean while early reports are starting to show masks are limiting the children ability to learn as well as limiting social development.
So at the same time we learning masks are not effective as has been claimed we also learning they are reducing children ability to learn.
I know some people are still stuck in the large corperate media narrative that the health establishment has our best interests and their "science" is The Way but it is becoming more and more clear the "science" is more about profit and conflict if interests than the individual health.
While I got the vaccine because I researched it just as hard as anything I can completely understand the distrust some have and I am completely against mandates.
Side note...I was arguing on the opposite side of this 3 years ago. Pretty firm in my beliefs that money would bring people the best health care. My mistake was I was thinking of it on a individual level not a for profit to millions of consumers level.
The good news, restrictions are being lifted in many places, including right here. By mid March, we will not be required to wear masks at all. In fact, many folks I talk to seem more cautious in their approach than what the new guidelines will allow. So essentially this thing seems to be winding down....finally!
It will nice to see the world become as close to normal as possible, though normal is a variable concept. But I hope we have learned some lessons, Show respect where it's due, sacrifice for the greater good when warranted, be diligent as opposed to opinionated, and invest in pandemic and other medical probabilities that could mess with us all in the future. We had our experience, so lets intelligently move forward with it.
