At the time it was one shot 1 booster. They kept changing when it wasn’t as effective as originally suggested.

 

Change is what happens when you give a virus time. This isn't a conspiracy. It's nature reacting to human inability to grasp reality and adapt fast enough to be useful. It adapts so we are forced to do the same. Not as effective....? Not enough vaccine soon enough and not accepted fast enough when there was enough. The original was very effective...for the original strain. Not so much on the mutations that developed due to resistance and in a silly little circle we go, until it became endemic. Now it just is what it is. All the hindsight research in the world to argue the point further will have no positive impact. 

 

We live in a global society. 8 billion plus people were in need supplied from a hand full of countries whose citizens fought the idea to a global standstill. And now pretend they have no responsibility for the condition they refused to aid.

My take again then we can agree to disagree. I know you and the other one are intelligent individuals. I’m pretty smart myself. I got in-line with the whole vaccine deal and probably would have continued. Then I started reading things, we’ve been over it all.  I got COVID. I even know who it was. A vaccine boosted person from my church. The whole deal about spreading by not getting vaccinated is suspect. I never got it again. So I can’t be causing mutations. Think about this. All the people who continue to get vaccinated. Could that be causing mutations? Remember the last bad bird flu made its rounds. Then WW1 men came home. It made another round. Many years later back it came. Only young got it. Fought it off quickly. The older generation was pretty much left alone, already had it. Maybe the boosters are causing the mutations, not the unvaccinated. Way too much money in boosters. I can’t think of anything else. So chew on that awhile. Naww that can’t be it, greed no way.

Hey Stan if its any consolation you and about 30-40% of the US population agree with you.

You couldn’t have read my last post. So that’s my feeling on it. Can’t really be swayed or add to it.

WWI influenza was started in a Kansas pig farm most likely. We sent it around the world via ignorance then brought it home to kill more folks.  Sadly we didn't learn ****** 100 years later. It cost a lot of people their lives needlessly.

Stan you ARE a smart successful and kind man, why I torture you.  As a fellow conservative with no where to turn I have pointed out how good, smart and caring people are being manipulated by dis-information via internet and having algorithms work them with an abundance of mis/dis info that they start believing things that are solidly wrong.

And that works both ways. I don’t claim to know everything. Some things make me go HUMM.

So, you don't know how a virus survives, or a vaccine works?  

I ask because the question witnesses you don't.

There’s been discussion with doctors on TV suggesting that possibility. These guys aren’t quacks. They’re now saying you need frequent vaccinations because of mutations, right? So isn’t it possible that you’re fighting one mutation with the vaccine while a new mutation enters your body. The best case scenario with vaccines now is not a deterrent but lessening the severity. I’m not going to blindly just trust these people. Since the beginning it’s been all over the place. I will remain skeptical.

We are vaccinated, didn't get Covid. Know quite a few who did, vaccinated or not. Some got it more than once and were vaccinated. 

Vaccination is a personal choice but to me is better than not.

Oh, it is what is happening. But it is the result not the cause. Our one or two and done window has since long passed thanks to short supply and resistance to guidance. 

 

Doctors are also people. Mine was in favor of Ivermectin with zinc and vitamin C early on. He laughs about it now. Doctors use to smoke on TV and tell us Salem was good for a sore throat. Camel calmed one's nerves. 4 out of 5 smoked Chesterfield. And Cowboy heroes told us Marlboro made you a man. Sword cuts both ways if you don't know HOW the virus and vaccine works. 

 

There are Doctors that are experts in this field. Some who bent to BOSS pressure sadly. (Say what I tell you or I'll take away your funding pressure) And there are paid expert witnesses who are doctors paid to talk on prime-time radio and NEWS T.V. to advance an agenda. Which is usually poly-ticks discrediting the real experts. Not all that hard to do. Everyone is human.

They could all be blowing smoke that’s the problem. We are all speculating. We’re sucking in information and unfortunately picking sides. Nobody wants to back a failure. I want it to work. It seems older people are less affected. I’m reading and seeing on the television women of child bearing age having complications. Young athletes having heart problems. Etc. I generally resist most meditation. I have to be hurting to take a Tylenol even. I’m pretty healthy I’m going to stay away from this stuff. Luck to people who participate. I’ve seen the the results of a doctors best guess. I’m still hauling my wife to physical therapy once a month six years after routine surgery. And five corrective surgeries. Just lost my dental hygienist, wife of my dentist. Had routine surgery and got sepsis. My daughter at two had an infection in her neck from a bug bite. Unfortunately it was on the weekend the doctor on call said it was mumps. The problem was she had a fever. The doctor like his booze. You don’t get fever with mumps. My wife at 22 years old questioned the doctor saving my daughter. She was actually the one who said to me no more shots, I don’t like what I’m reading. She much smarter than me. When her red flag goes up I pay attention. She’s rarely wrong. I’ve seen the results for close to fifty years.

The call it "Practicing Medicine" What's not to understand. It's still better than nothing.

I find it perplexing that people who are real picky on car maintenance aren’t more discerning on human maintenance. Points and counter points on oil and sending off to be analyzed. Two manufacturers say you can go 10K miles on oil. Who happened to be regarded as the longest lasting. They only care to get you past warranty they say. But someone says be careful about these new vaccines. You’re responsible for mutations. No I’m saying be careful, that’s all. Hit me with a needle because it’s better than nothing. Come on. I wish you well, really.

    • I find it amusing the OP doesn’t realize this threads heading includes several engines. He should have posted in the off topic section if he wanted a more narrow focus. I really appreciate and find amusing that he actually pointed out one of my many vehicles. The Odyssey. That happens to use 0-20 oil. I love pushing his buttons. 
    • Maybe, but it seems he is the only one that has backed up data to prove what he is stating. I think he is doing this more because he enjoys it and wants to get the information out to us. He's got the knowledge and access to the proper equipment and having the funds doesn't hurt.  I would love to do what he is doing and would do it if and when I hit the Powerball.  I'm not a Tribologist by any means but love to learn what I can.   I would bet there would be doubting people out there if a completely independent lab with high quality work and highly respected in the automotive industry, put out information like this.  The world can't be pleased, one just has to take the information that they are given, do more of their own research to find actual lab data to back up what they are trying to figure/find out.  Most don't bother, they just want to believe what they first see.     I don't have the minimax but my 6.2 in my 2019 Silverado with 64k miles shows excellent UOA results with 0w-20 and for my own purposes 5w-20.  Since not much of a change using 5w. I liked the data sheet information on the SS 5w-20 and figured I would give it a try.  Still the same viscosity at 100℃.   In the end we all just do what makes us happy, life is too short to get upset over trivial social media.   On a side note, I do feel GM has dropped the ball and just cares about the bottom dollar and not quality anymore.  "Like a Rock" has been long gone.  Seems "Built Ford Tough" has as well.
    • Better than stock but that's like putting lipstick on a pig
    • Hello, my 3 month old Sierra Elevation wont recognize a trailer with electric brakes? All the lights work correctly, but no power to the brakes?   This is the factory installed brake controller. If you manually push the knob, the display shows the power % but does not light up like my 2022 silverado.   I have an appointment with the dealer, but was checking to see if anyone else has seen this issue.    Thanks, 
    • Been using SS 0w-20 from new, but wanted to change to the 5w-20 because I liked the data on the data sheet, to me it seems like a little better product. But as you can see, not much difference. This is also with running a mix of 10 gallons E85 to a tank topped with 93. It isn't a flex fuel vehicle so any higher I get a CEL for running lean on both banks. Yes my mileage takes a hit. Instead of 20 mpg I normally get on trips I get 17mpg. This is also using EaO17 filter.  What is amazing is I have the AMSOIL cone filter on it since I have the GM Performance intake installed and that air filter has 44k miles on it.  I just take it out and shop vac it off once a year.  I use the upholstery tool on my shop vac.  Works well.
