Covid status

By *elfastreal8 OP Man over a year ago

I’ve seen a lot of people putting up their “double vaccinated” status’. Does it actually bother people what “status” they are? Do you ask anyone their vaccine status before you meet them or ask to see their passport?

You should!! We are all in this together, shoulder to wheel and all that. No time to be selfish.

It wouldn't necessarily be something I'd ask because I don't ask all my customers etc when I meet then every day.

At the same time I wouldn't be using my vaccination status to encourage people to meet me.

Now that I think of it, I would actually skip on by any profile that does use that as their usp.

To be honest I only ask if we're trying to decide where to go for a social meet because you have to factor in whether you can sit inside or not. After that it's none of my business.

I have no idea on wether people do look or ask for them but what l do know is double Vaccinated people have had Covid , double Vaccinated or not you can still carry it or get it.

Yeah, it just doesn’t look right on a status, or on someone’s profile.

No I haven't asked anyone if they are vaccinated or not and I can't see me doing it either.

I have had all of mine including the booster shot. If others chose to not have theirs that is their own decision I have no right to try and influence what others do.

If I am interested in meeting anyone new then maybe it will come up in conversation I don't know.

But I find the us verses them to do more damage than good from what I've seen over the last while .

Plus being fully vaccinated does not mean you won't catch covid or spread it.It just hopefully saves you from being really ill or hospitalised.

Yes there is this as well.I find it very off putting when people use it as a reason why I should meet them.

If it comes up in conversation that someone is not vaccinated (unless it’s for a medical reason) then I’m very unlikely to meet them as we would have very different opinions on things.

I have yet to ask anyone if they’re vaccinated though

Doubt if meeting an unvaccinated person makes a blind bit of difference you can still carry covid vaccinated or not.. You shouldn't be meeting people at all if you're worried about covid.. 40% of people with covid have zero to very little symptoms.. I had a dry cough last summer for 2 weeks.. Didn't get tested and still want to work.. We will all get it eventually and it will kill all of us eventually When we are old and our immune systems are on the floor..

I have my vaccination status on my profile. Wouldn't meet soneone who didn't get jabbed. Less risk. It would come up in conversation. It is important to me. Its just another part of it, Not the only or most important info.

I've seen plenty of profiles on dating sites stating they wouldn't meet someone who is thinking of or has taken the jabs. They publicly and overtly say it. Eh, that's their opinion of things.

You could liken it maybe to bi guys actually putting bi on their profile. Some look down on that, others have no desire to connect with that. Two different perspectives, same end result.

Or people who bareback. User preference. Or people who play away. The list goes on.

No one side will out talk/keyboard warrior on this or any other issue.

Unless they have some medical diagnosis where a doctor recommended they didn't get vaccinated.... then I would definitely consider it foolish to not get it yes.

So far it has always come up in conversation. It was only an issue when one FB wasn’t vaxed and we were going to eat out (food - in a restaurant

). Then I knew he had had been tested. Unforch my health doesn’t allow for me to willingly expose myself to Covid so if someone isn’t vaxed, I’m less likely to meet them if they wouldn’t consider a test first.

I don't ask at all because the more i hear people getting covid after getting the jabs i'm honestly loosing faith. I have already stopped living for almost two years and people are entitled to refuse getting it. I don't judge them for it and it's my risk to take.

Hold on though, I know a person now on a ventilator as they didn’t believe in the vaccination. How many doctors, nurses does his care now require that should be helping others. Why didn’t he get the vaccine?? Why wouldn’t a person get it?? It’s not you, it’s about protecting everyone. Is it that some are just afraid of needles and that puts them off!

Jabbed or not jabbed, it makes no difference to me. Since vaccinated people can still transmit and get covid-19 I don't see the point of asking or even declaring it on the profile, besides I find the vaccine segregation is just totally unnecessary and awful.

And oh ja btw whatever is written on a fab profile, it's all true....

No matter what decisions any one chooses to make is theirs alone. Its not for us to understand why they chose it. And like all life choices good bad or indifferent one has to deal with whatever consequences arise from those decisions still not anyones place to judge.

If anyone is really serious about meeting only vaxxed people, you should check the cert with the checker app and then cross check name on cert with name on a id. Only then you have some certainty.

Well since you brought that up, YES!! I try my best to keep fit, eat well. Our health services are preparing for a tough future due to obesity, but you’re right, people have a right to do their thing and have no social regard for the good of all. Sure I might as well through my litter on the the street, it’s my right!!

When someone is lying on an operating table due to issues caused by lifestyle, they are probably the ones the shout “ why didn’t my government advise me differently, that was my right”.

There is a massive difference between something complex as well like weight and smoking which arise out of complex reasons (and in the case of a higher BMI might actually be good for you in some ways ), and a refusal to get a bloody jab which takes literally few minutes to sort . There are qualified people whose job it is to tell you whether it’s good overall to get jabbed or not and they don’t think It’s experimental

Anyway this should be in the virus forum not the Irish one

Well said, and is only proper order. It is indirectly asked here if you are a smoker let others know. Ok smoking or covid may not kill you? But the prove is all over the world they both have killed millions as the saying goes if something can go wrong it will.

I've trained 40 new staff this week and interviewing 40 next week

They don't get an interview without a covid cert and they can't get past the website software if they don't upload it

Saves all the calls

Good stuff. They are the kind of staff you want, in fact this could be a way for HR to out certain types of personalities!! There is always a silver lining!!! Lol "

I 100% agree with a persons right to say no to getting vaccinated

I also agree with blocking those that dont get vaccinated a route into a normal society

No pubs, restaurants,places of entertainment, offices,travel in fact

Wherever people congregate

Apart from a few places where it's absolutely necessary

Then the rest of us can get back to work and some sort of normality

I'm vaxed since August. do I ask other people? never have!. were in a precarious position at the moment. all who want a vaccine are vaccinated yet ICU numbers are climbing rapidly. all of society looked to reopen, nightclubs etc and I don't blame them. they're closed over 600 days. I can honestly say once I have been asked to show my vaccine pass anywhere.

Unless they have some medical diagnosis where a doctor recommended they didn't get vaccinated.... then I would definitely consider it foolish to not get it yes.

Foolish not to get a vaccine that is still on trial, and you can still catch/transmit the virus? "

I too have family and friends that work in that hospital. When I was told about the situation there I didn't ask for how many doctors or nurses didn't want to get vaccinated

. I was asked for my opinion on it as the HSE are trying to do the no jab no job policy. This is not misleading this is what I was told. So if you ask your family and friends that are vaccinated if the doctors and nurses are all vaccinated they shall tell you no not all have decided to get it "yet" some just don't trust it fully

"I still don't understand why vaccinated people worry about unvaccinated?? "

Unvaccinated people are more likely to transmit the virus. They are also more likely to become sick if, say, I was carrying covid but was asymptomatic.

People who are willingly refusing to accept the vaccine are also giving the virus more chance to mutate if they become sick. These mutations could lead to vaccine resistant strains.

If you look at the numbers, it is unvaccinated people who are more likely to end up in hospital and in ICU, putting extreme stress on an already stressed system.

So yes, they concern me for a multitude of reasons.

If someone has a medical reason to not be vaccinated, fine. If someone is not getting the vaccine because they think they know better than scientists and medical professionals due to something they read online or heard from someone else, fuck them.

We both fully vaxed... Thankfully our choice.

Both fully agree that vaccination is each individuals personal decision and can fully respect that.

100% population vaccination is a target which was never going to be achieved for many different reasons.

Driving a divide between vaxed/non vaxed is pointless. Last we knew, this virus was imported, like many more that will follow.

If the country 100% vaxed the population and closed the borders people would still find someone/something to shame.

A little maturity would go a long way to respecting other's decisions.

Let's be thankful (this time) it wasn't Ebola or a virus far more lethal.

With vaccination levels as they are on the island now, surely a little of live and let live is our hope.

To be fair I would encourage anyone to get it but I'm not going out of my way to insult them.

But you changed the point there a bit so let's get back to it talking about the ICU figures which clearly show the vaccine does help prevent serious illness from the virus.

Also calling someone a muppet as your opening probably doesn't encourage the most respectful of conversations around it if you want to avoid people being slated

80 percent of people who died last month we're double vaccinated according to the HSE. An additional 3 percent had one vaccination shot, and the rest unvaccinated.

The only reason to fear the unvaccinated isnif deep down you believe the vaccine you got does not work as advertised. If it works as advertised you are 95 percent protected from death regardless of what those around you do.

If some have decided the risks of vaccine are not for them, so what. Yes they they might clog up hospitals but so what they end up with a better immune system than the unvaccinated. And there are so few left without a vaccine that at the numbers they quote they should all have covid and be over it in a month or two.

Also I'm not going anywhere that asks for a cert. I think it's a fucking disgrace. Turns my stomach that we are just as bad as China and have lost all ability to complain about countries who create different class systems blocking people from things.

I really honestly thought Ireland was better than that. I'd never have sex with anyone who brought it up to me. I'd think they were revolting.

Lastly double vaccinated people are creating spikes in lots of diseases. STDs and virus outbreaks along with cancers and infertility linked to their unclean behaviour (taking off masks thinking immune), and poor immune responses when catching stuff. Due to a collapse of immune cells from the vaccine that might take longer to recover from than anticipated. They are going to clog up the hospital's for decades unless they get double vaccinated and remain isolating, socially distant, and wearing masks.

Even the HSE is saying this now. So only those who are double vaccinated who remain isolated, can really complain about unvaccinated taking up a hospital bed.

"Anyone else notice a significant rise in ambulance / sirens on the road recently? Is it all those selfish Anti vaxers on their way to clogging up the ICU or could there be another reason?

Muppet 50 percent of people in a ICU are fully vaccinated fact !!!!

Last reported figure I saw was more like 40% vaccinated people.

But even take it as 50% thats 50% of ICU patients not vaccinated thats a huge number

I don't disagree with that at all but even 40% of vaccinated people is way too high for something they were told would protect them from serious sickness.

But it clearly has worked by those figures....

It has slowed it down and I hope it continues To do so.but for people that don't get it I think it's unfair to slate them.

And when people say oh they refused the vaccine that's not through they just go and get it that not called refusing.

To be fair I would encourage anyone to get it but I'm not going out of my way to insult them.

But you changed the point there a bit so let's get back to it talking about the ICU figures which clearly show the vaccine does help prevent serious illness from the virus.

Also calling someone a muppet as your opening probably doesn't encourage the most respectful of conversations around it if you want to avoid people being slated"

80% of deaths last month were fully vaccinated that's not protection in my eyes.

Anyway everyones views are different.

"80% of deaths last month were fully vaccinated that's not protection in my eyes.

No it's not, they believe the death rate among fully faccinated will stabalize at a low level. And that it will protect the hse.

I was looking through the facts and I'm not gonna say they are a lie but I am gonna say we don't understand what's going on. There is something like 50,000 in the age range of concern. However they tell us it takes up 50 percent of cases in hospital and even more of positive tests.

So the big question is how? Are they all hanging out together? Are they catching it from asymptomatic vaccinated people? Are they attending events they are not allowed to?

At some point herd immunity should kick in, and the unvaccinated should be protected by the fact everyone else is.

So we need to figure out is it behaviour, or the vaccine. So we can advise people right. If it's the vaccine we can just do antigen tests before events. That's proven to cut transmission by 99 percent or something. If it's behaviour then we can find out and either accept it's like alcohol filling hospitals in the weekend or give great advice to help stop it.

Either approach would be fine with me, and would show a responsible govt that cares about freedom, I'm not fine with covid certs.

When covid certs fail and a new lockdown comes out who will they blame? Another minority group, maybe children between a certain age. But what happens when they run out of minority groups to blame. Cause all the signs show ifnee did a complete unlock now the hospital's would collapse with vaccinated people going in.

Breakdown is actually:

Fully vaxed 63.5%

One dose:20%

No dose:16.5%

The one dose people are not including the one shot vaccines.

So that's 16% of the deaths from about 8% of the population.

Any deaths is terrible and its someone's personal choice but the risks are higher for non vaxed people which is backed up by all the stats. Even if the vaccine isn't the magic pill everyone thought it would be or is people have other concerns around it all

Don't be fooled. Vaccinated people are dieing too. You're basing your statistics on other statistics. That's like Chinese whispers

Even if we accept those figures then 16% of the deaths from 8% of the population means that those unvaccinated folks have double the risk of death.

Stats based on stats cant show a relevant view of the situation.

Take this one.

174 deaths out of 402 deaths. Between Apr 1st and Oct 16th this year were double vaccinated i4 days or more prior to death.

Ref. Hse website

But if you were to take that stat and another chosen stat,you can possibly eqaute it to that fits well to a narrative

Wow so 8% of the population makes up more than half the deaths. If I were unvaccinated that would scare the shit out of me

The death %'s are from raw data as are the vaccination rates I gave.

I used both in a sentence but I didn't generate any additional stats.

I also gave thr % for vaccinated people so I'm not sure where the "dont be filled vaccinated people are dying too" comment came from

also on vaccine. id say the protection rate is falling off of vaccines quicker then they thought. I saw them calling for Healthcare staff to be given the booster as big rise in case numbers in that area.

That's crazy. Not the stat just that after all this time some people still dont get that the jabs protect you if you do get covid. You know by lessening symptoms, helping you be less likely to end up in ICU..... or you know dieing. But sure thats not overly important its only death

i travel all over

The stays last week showed 58 per cent unvaccinated on icu

42 per cent vaccinated

92 per cent vaccinated overall in the population

I am not great at stats but does that not mean 16 times as likely to end up in icu if unvaccinated ?

The nearly equal mix in icu is very misleading as most people are vaccinated

problem is people are back living normal lives and the vaccine doesn't stop u spreading it. the most important numbers now are hospital and ICU, not daily cases. were basically back to living without restriction so if it didn't happen now, when do you introduce it? as far as I can see whenever u open up fully covid will take off.

Yup 100% and needs spelt out that way to some of the population as well.

Alot seem to think that because 40% of icu are vaccinated your almost as likely to end up in their with or without vaccine as proportion of population vaccinated isn't considered. You can lead a horse to water and all that!

It’s never going to go away and whatever people think, being “vaccinated” 3 or 4 times a year isn’t gonna make the slightest difference. Maybe the government should be promoting healthy lifestyles, banning smoking, educating people on what they eat, drink etc. Leading a healthy lifestyle will help fight against COVID/FLU/COLDS. Time to stop letting smokers and unhealthy people into ICU maybe? Oooops, the government/pharmaceuticals make a lot of money on smokers and people who would rather rely on tablets to fix them instead of letting themselves make stupid mistakes in the first place?

Fully agree. We travel back and forward thru all Europe , and each time we return to Ireland we are puzzled how stuck Ireland us in a dirt of paranoid mass psychosis .

On the contrary, I was agreeing with your post up to a point and only looked at your profile out of interest, not to find "ANYTHING" to use against you. I just found you to be a tad hypocritical why you partly bashed smokers yet you will meet them

Who is going to decide what's a healthy livestyle? Where do you draw the line? Do you punish everyone with diabetes or obesity too on the grounds of their past diet habits? Plenty of more examples I could think of. Have you ever thought that yourself or one close to you could end up in the 'wrong' group?

It's called segregation and oppression politics what you're suggesting and totally unacceptable. The past (and present) of human history shows how much suffering and hatred such ideologies cause. We really don't need more division, quite contrary.
