^ What he said. All day. Every Day.

Wow, lot of badasses in here today.

But they're only badasses because this time we got away with it. Next time we might not be so lucky. Even the badasses.

[WonkeyDonkey]

Oh my god the antivaxxer tin foil hat brigade are out tonight. I thought all this was long forgotten about 18 months ago lol.

If a disease has a high infection fatality ratio (IFR) meaning an actual high risk of dying if you contract it, unsurprisingly you won't need to coerce people into a vaccination. They'll come running for it. Ebola this was not.

And still, despite everything that has come to light, the disciples continue to just believe...

Absolutely incredible.

Some people will never admit (to others) that they were wrong. The ones that had the jab have made their beds; it's easier on themselves to ridicule others than face reality. It's not personal, but shame, openly projected.

I had the first two jabs and i really wish i hadn't, having been carried along on the 'do it' wave that hit most of us, encouraging others, shaming others to follow suit.

I haven’t followed this thread at all, so what is said to be wrong in having covid jabs?
Quick summary will do, ta.

Highly questionable efficacy. Questionable safety.
But it made a lot of people and organisations lots of lovely money, so all good.

As someone elderly you should have just taken your chances and if you got it and died it's just natures way of dealing with you.

Probably something about Bill Gates too.

Honestly these people are quite mad.

The vast majority of people don't even understand efficacy or how it is calculated so for them to question it is laughable really

You will probably be ok. However if you have a daughter who is a bit pushy suggesting you go off to Barbados on a family holiday you might want to avoid it

I’m usually in agreement with the things you say Stewie, but on this one I’m afraid I can’t acquiesce to your view.

As a ‘senior’ person Cranky should have taken it as it’s clear it offered protection to more vulnerable demographics.

Most of us however did not need it (as it did nothing to stop the spread). We also didn’t need lockdowns ( where supermarkets and garden centres stayed open) but should have got on with life and just taken a few precautions.

Indeed - Mrs DS works on this stuff (she gives lectures and talks to conferences all over the world; she knows her stuff). Her verdict on this was that people wouldn’t have been so gung ho if it’d been a flesh or brain eating type of thing.
