Need a break from the usual Monday grind? How about a game? Hope you don’t mind if it’s COVID19-related.
Dr. Pradheep Shanker, a conservative radiologist, wants to see if you can figure out which one of these pictures doesn’t belong. Give it a try:
Pradheep J. Shanker ~ One of these is not like the other ...
#Science
And there’s more:
Pradheep J. Shanker ~ Question 2:
Which of these groups has the lowest risk of death?
* Vaccinated Adults
* Vaccinated Elderly
* Unvaccinated Kids
* Celebrities
Have you figured it out?
Pradheep J. Shanker ~ The problem:
The public knows that Biden et. al. will only criticize certain people for their behavior.
The privileged, most Biden voters, will never face any criticism (teacher unions, celebrities, pols).
You can't vote the pandemic this way. We are NOT all in it together.
Pradheep J. Shanker ~ Hilarious. Every commenter here that says "But kids can't get vaccinated!" Or, "But they are vaccinated!" misses the key SCIENTIFIC FACT:
Unvaccinated Kids are LESS LIKELY TO DIE than VACCINATED ADULTS.
So good job, people. Way to demonstrate you don't know your science.
Lotta people demonstrating that lately. And they’re weirdly proud of it.
realitybased1 ~ The last time I wanted advice on public health and vaccination I called my local radiologist ... not.
Pradheep J. Shanker ~ That's fine.
Of course, the science is the science, regardless if I am saying it, or you are.
And the science is sound. If you hide from that ... well, then you are as anti-science as anyone.
Sounds like an accurate diagnosis, Dr. Shanker.

UPDATE
Again, for those who missed Dr. Shanker’s memo:
Pradheep J. Shanker ~ Man, are people mad about the science of this post ... but it comes all from the CDC.
http://cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/covid-data/investigations-discovery/assessing-risk-factors.html
You don't get to pick and choose which science and data you abide by.
And the point isn't that we shouldn't protect kids ... it's that these adults pictured DGAF {Don't Give A F*ck} ABOUT KIDS.
Exactly.
Pradheep J. Shanker ~ If you are in an enclosed space, and not wearing a mask ... you are technically not abiding by what Biden's CDC recommendations are (we can argue if this is the right recommendation, but that IS the recommendation).
Why aren't people now mad about adults ignoring that?
Pradheep J. Shanker ~ Again, looks like a lot of Dems just want to play politics.
If we are all in this together ... and we are going to follow the CDC ... then every adult in these pictures should be dragged on social media for putting our kids at risk.
Otherwise ... we are NOT all in this together.
