Bradley Beal asks questions about the vaccine.

Itâs crazy how all these dudes say they didnât do the vaccine because âthey did their own researchâ but then ask these dumbass questions.
If you did your research then you should know why you can still get it after doing the vaccine.

Do you believe he has a right to bodily autonomy?
-3
If thatâs the road youâre gonna take then sure he has that right. He also then should accept that he is going to have to deal with restrictions compared to other people.
Also, just cause he has that right, it doesnât mean he isnât a complete fucking idiot.

According to every law about smoking in public you donât have ultimate bodily autonomy if you are conducting an act that has a chance to cause unwanted medical harm to a third party that doesnât consent.

I like Bradley Beal and find him to be a likable speaker, but he is not nearly as clever as he thinks he is here. Not to mention, his big question is googleable.
9
Care to answer his question?
-8
No vaccine is 100% effective. He kinda answers his own question when it says it reduces chances of going to the hospital.
Like others say, he's not as clever as he thinks he's being.
10
I don't see it as him trying to be clever, but push the conversation forward with asking questions that don't get much coverage. He said that he isn't in a huge risk group either, so he doesn't see the need for it.
-7
These questions get tons of coverage and are now dismissed because theyâve been answered ad nauseam.
5
These questions have received insane amounts of coverage and have super easy answers. The vaccine doesn't eliminate your risk of contracting and spreading COVID-19, but it greatly reduces it. And if you do contract it, it greatly reduces the severity.
He said that he isn't in a huge risk group either, so he doesn't see the need for it.
Another common talking point that has been addressed countless times. The vaccine still reduces your risk to contract and spread COVID. Even if you're in a low risk group, you need to get vaccinated to not allow the disease to spread to the vulnerable and to stop letting it fester and mutate.
This shit is so basic and covered to death, Beal and people who identify with him are honestly just being morons.

Again, he answers this. He's had it so he may be lower risk. But he says there's still a chance that people can get it. Getting the vaccine lowers that chance.
But you're right. He's sounding more stubborn and immature than clever.
1
Iâm just a guy on Reddit, but I googled it, and the answer was right on page one of the Google.
âNo vaccine is 100% effective. Even the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine â one of the most powerful disease prevention tools we have â is only 96% effective against measles after two doses, while the seasonal flu vaccine is only 45% effective. Still, it is estimated to prevent 130,000 flu deaths in the US alone each year.â

More âresearchâ than Beal or OP have done right there
5
I'm pretty sure Brad's wife telling him things she saw on Facebook is more than enough research, thank you very much
3
Google it
2
Why bring something up if you're not willing to have a discussion?
-9
Because itâs not my job to answer these questions lmao.
4
Because you're supposed to just listen to what you're told and not think for yourself, that's why.
Who cares if you like to make informed decisions and are wary of being given answers by people who are financially incentivized to make you do certain things..just trust the science, bro.

90% of NBA players aren't as clever as they think they are. Laura Ingraham is a dumb bitch but she was spot on about players needing to know their place.
-8
Why do you hate black people so much?
2
Laura Ingraham
Lol, the professional talking head Laura Ingraham? She's the one talking about "knowing your place"? What place does she have in reality? She's getting paid to throw shit at the wall and see what sticks, all of these news radio hosts, tv personalities, and talking heads do this.

Embarrassing
4
Im confused. The vaccine is there to help you avoid hospitalization. It's clear. What's the problem?
4
Why stop smoking when you can still get cancer? Why wear a seat belt when you can still die in a car accident? It's elementary risk mitigation.
This is SO fucking stupid.
4
Why use a birth control, its not 100%? Just cum inside her and pray lol
3
This man does not excel in critical thinking. The look after his "gotcha" questions is embarrassing. Please stop.
3
How would you answer his question?
-2
I would ask him what I did in an earlier comment. Why do you do anything in your life to protect yourself or others? Why wear a seat belt when you can still die in an accident? Why stop smoking when you can still get lung cancer? It's simple risk reduction for yourself and others.
It's not difficult. It's not hard.
This is the dumbest fucking hill EVER to die on.
6
The vaccine significantly reduces your chances to catching COVID and if you do happen to catch it, it significantly reduces your symptoms are need to go to the hospital for it. Getting it also reduces the risk that you pass it on to someone who is in a higher risk group. Not that hard to understand
3
You're embarrassing yourself in this thread.
2
I thought he posted this to clown on Beal but it turns out he posted this thinking Beal was actually making good points.
3
Downvote and report OP for spreading misinformation. These people seriously need to be kicked out of society.
2
Lol OP is actually on Beal's side
2
He asks questions because he's too lazy to ask Google, doesn't he?
Let me get this off the table:
-
most Western governments screwed up with the planning and maintenance of pandemic plans, they fumbled the first measures against covid and they rushed the re-openings to please businesses. Moreover, economic relief has been mainly given to those who need the least.
-
people showed how petty and egotistical they can we can, refusing to wear masks, to quarantine when sick, forging vaccination status certifications etc etc
-
many physicians and researchers lost their credibility in an power-hungry bandwagon jumping dictated by the chances of career advancement.
But I highly doubt that virology, immunology and pharmacology could be exposed by Bradley Beal, ffs.
He asks stupid and over-asked questions. A general practitioner could have answered him.
2
He looks wired as fuck lol.
1
He drunk 2 red bulls before the interview. He was ready for whatever.

Crazy eyes.

Stop beating a dead đ´

Once again everybody here doesnât accept the fact that yes vaccinated people can still get it and pass it. Antibodies does not keep you from getting it just fight it off when you get but yet everybody here keeps calling these players dumb.
-4
Seat belts also donât protect you from dying every car crash but Iâm betting you still wear it to reduce the risk.
3
Ok but youâre dodging the point is the vaccine stopping you from. Catching COVID no. Is the vaccine stopping you from catching and passing it no. Just like that seatbelt reference it doesnât stop you from dying in a crash. Iâm vaccinated because itâs something that helps but it is not stopping the problem at all. And everybody acting like it does and getting mad about it. If you want something to be hopeful about go look at yesterday news about phizer. Developing a pill that will actually prevent you from catching it.
-1
"Iâm vaccinated because itâs something that helps"
Isn't this enough reason to get it? Lol
2
It (the vaccine) does stop you from catching it, spreading it, and dying from it compared to control groups in controlled studies and in population studies. Itâs not 100% effective and thatâs where I can tell your lack of any medical training or understanding of medical clinical decision making is leading you to commit both Straw Man and Nirvana Fallacies.

Since all these other comments are negative towards Bradley, I think he's standing up for what he believes and I'm proud of him for it.
-6
I believe the earth is flat and Adam silver rigged the election
7
Iâm so proud of you
6
How dare you sir, the Earth is not just flat but also on the back of a turtle floating through space. Be proud of me
3
In that case Iâm proud of Naziâs for standing up for what they believe in â¤ď¸
4
Do you see nazi's as the vaccinated or unvaccinated?
1
As ppl that advocate for the harm of others, which is what anti vaxers do
1
Dont be proud of a grown man being stupid. Getting the vaccine can eliminate a lot of deaths still happening. Not to mention if the vaccine was more widespread we'd be getting over this and not still in the thick of it. Simple research can keep you from looking this stupid.
4
What about all the deaths and side effects of the vaccine?
-1
Are you serious? đ You can't handle a headache from the shot so you'd rather die? & how many people have died due to the shot compared to the virus? You sound dumb bro
3
So you are proud of anyone who stands up in what they believe in? Even if those beliefs stem from ignorance?
2
What did he say that was incorrect nate? He isn't wrong about the vaccine eliminating transmission or infection.
2
Well go back to my premise. Does the below sound like a point that even needs to be made?
"Why should I wear a seat belt when I can still get killed in a car accident?"
Is that something you would genuinely ask in public? Even worse, do so in a seemingly smug manner? If your answer is yes I'm afraid I can't help you.
Also, as others have indicated, these questions have received an insane amount of coverage and debate. I am not sure where you have been the last 9 months?
2
This isn't a matter of belief. There is a right and wrong answer. Bradley is wrong. The questions he's asking are incredibly basic and easy to answer, and he sounds like an idiot for asking them like they're some sort of profound "gotcha" and not something he could google and realize he's wrong about in two seconds. And you're wrong for defending him.
2
I agree with you OP. We may both get downvoted by the âus vs you cultâ on Reddit but I do agree with you!

Scary times on reddit whenever the vaccine is mentioned.

Funny people are talking shit but he's right.
Just because you don't like that he's asking the questions doesn't make the questions less pertinent.

Yup, you are getting censored on this post but I believe you. Stay strong brother.
