John, if thalidomide is relevant to you, you might claim a 1 million dollar award as the first man in the world to get pregnant.

 

Otherwise, it is a cancer drug, and if you prefer to die but not get it because it is bad for your pregnancy... your choice. But this pandemic is not just your choice, it affects everyone. You cannot just claim "I don't want this vaccine because I am afraid of my bloody ass". You just go and get the fucking vaccine because you deserve it due to your age.

 

I am too young to get vaccinated. Do it. Fucking do it.

I am not anti-vaccination and will at some stage get the jab. All I am saying is - this is new territory as we don‘t really know the possible side effects or other long terms aspects- that is all.

 

So, generally hopeful, but caveat emptor. Sort of...

[optimista 4,693]

Indeed. After you...

But we do know the possible effects of corona virus short and long term. We get to choose.

 

 

[john g. 33,762]

Let me put it another way! Who should under no circumstances be vaccinated? Which pre-existing conditions would/could make the jab dangerous for someone? I am not thinking about myself here.

 

PS: I am not personally afraid of a jab. I could get run over by a bus tomorrow. Such is life..

If you have pre-existing conditions there is probably more chance of you catching Covid and dying from it if you don`t get vaccinated rather than dying from the vaccine.

So I think many people will take that chance.

I also heard they are identifying the component that causes the allergies and plan to replace it. Seems to be one of the lipids.

No, he didn´t. There is a comma missing in:

AFAIK it´s polyethylene glycol, a substance often used to make things soluble. It´d´s contained in a lot of drugs.

Well I‘m sorry to have to tell you this, but 🙄🙄🙄, whether or not a comma is there has to do with whether or not a pause is to be spoken.  This becomes extremely obvious when a person‘s speech is being quoted.  And since TT is a „chat“ forum we native English speakers tend to write things out as we would say them, and the nuances have meaning for us.  But then what would we know?  🤷‍♀️  😂  Happy New Year BTW.

A comma should separate an introductory word or phrase from the rest of the sentence.

For example:

 

By the way, happy new year.   😂

[RajeshG 1,865]

Happy new year 2021

Here is an update after my partner was vaccinated against Corona beginning of the week, @Metall and @john g. till now there are absolutely no side effects. Also she has no story to tell from the old age homes, where they are administering this to the 80+

Shall update once she and the old ones get the 2nd shot.

Not when one is quoting speech or chatting, because that’s not the way people talk.  Also, you have quoted one source, but you will find that the language is evolving, and commas are becoming used less and less frequently.  But again, what would I know?  🤷‍♀️  😂

 

„Happy New Year, BTW“ is spoken differently than „Happy New Year BTW“, and yet each version is correct.

Okay.   Then by the way happy new year.

After all, that´s one more than you did. Here is another one:

 

Quote

 

To sum up the rule on introductory words: Use commas to separate them from the rest of the sentence, or omit them entirely.

Which sentence is correct?

A. Well Ella plays the piano well when she is in the mood.

B. Well, Ella plays the piano, well, when she is in the mood.

C. Well, Ella plays the piano well when she is in the mood.

 

Answer: Sentence C is correct.

Maybe we should open a thread to discuss punctuation?

Jesus fucking christ it`s a forum not someones fucking thesis.

This forum would be full of people correcting grammar if people were worried about it.

Could you understand what was meant ?

If not that wasn`t the fault of a missing comma that was you being a thick shit.

[dessa_dangerous 12,349]

OK guys, no more grammar talk, back on topic please.

[john g. 33,762]

Can’t remember what the topic is!🙈😂

( Only joking!)😀

 

Back to the topic- is it not always wise to ask questions?

I can’t say I would trust a new vaccine with my life.. but I would hope. Thus a question- who can guarantee the vaccine would save my or your life? No one.

True. But could anyone guarantee that you won´t catch the virus? After more than a million of vaccinations it seems to me a risk worth taking.

[Acton 805]

I'll be the first in line to get whatever is on offer.

Does anyone know who will contact me about this? My doctor, the health aithoritity, who?
