An apprentice at work whose mother is/has undergone breast cancer treatment will not get the Covid vaccine yet the cancer treatment has saved her life (so far). The dad has refused to as well. As a consequence they both lost their jobs then their house as they couldn’t make mortgage payments.

It reminds me of every article where pompous / arrogant anti vaxers are lying on their death beds all begging for the vaccination with their last breaths.

Comical, the narrative around forced vaccine/mandates is crumbling by the day but anyone pointing it out is a CTist. One thing Covid has shown is the so called CTist are proven to be correct 6 months down the track.

Doesn't seem like a very good comparison (to cancer) IMHO. One is about people who have terminal illness. The other is about putting something into perfectly healthy people.
Whilst all the focus is on the crazy nutty 5g, bill gates, Qanon type anti vaxers, there are also a lot of very intelligent people who are merely concerned and have some hesitancy....or simply just against mandates. We are now being asked to take 3...and possibly 4...jabs in the space of what? 6 months? Even the WHO has said mandates should only be a last resort. What happened to listening to health experts? One of the advantages of mRNA technology is that it can be quickly tweaked for new variants. At some stage, people will need to ask themselves how many jabs they are willing to take.

The amount of anti vaxxers I have heard sprouting that the vaccine is hopeless as 1/2 the people in ICU are vaxxed, and that that shows there is no difference between vaxxed and unvaxxed as it is 50% each way.....it just makes me sad for humanity. They don't get that as far as hospital admissions go 97.5% is TWICE as effective as 95%, as there will be half as many people unvaxxed who are filling up half of the beds. This will mean that we can free up 1/4 of ICU beds by getting just that 2.5% of people vaccinated! Well you can say it till the cows come home, but they take you off on another tangent. That is why we need mandates, people are too dumb, and they listen to stupid youtubers like the one posted above. These people are the reason why elective surgery is being effected, good people in left in pain for years due to stupid people listening to garbage peddlers on social media. 3,4,5,8 boosters? whatever it takes for us to beat this thing. We know they are safe now, multiple BILLIONS of shots administered.

We could do a heck of a lot better with data presentation and availability to the public. MSMs should be running docos to show how these vaccines are made, tested, and explain the stats behind them. And explain the science behind why we are unlikely to see negative effects 2-5 years down the track. Instead, all we hear are pollies standing up in front of the TV every day basically saying "trust us". I'm surprised it worked for ~90% of the population ![]() I thought Russell's update on post #18064 was on the money. But those results need time, and we haven't had the time, I get that part. TBH these mandates, and the way we recently treated an extremely low risk / zero risk individual has me asking questions. Is it really always all about health? The event has had the opposite effect for me. We are sitting on 32% for the booster. I don't think they will pull the mandate trigger until we are over 50%, and definitely not before the F1 as that might knock a few teams out.

It is far from 50% each way. Now these figures aren't accurate but say there's 100 people in ICU - that's 50 of each. The 50 vaxxed would be out of 2 million; the 50 unvaxxed would be 50 out of 100000. That equates to 0.0025% and 0.05% which is far from equal. I'm sure you should be able to understand the fallacy of quoting your 50%. |

Just went and bought newspaper, The West Australian, on front page is a short story, but worthy I suppose as a headline, the reporter is Peter Law.
JUST TWO CASES SPARK BUNGLE! QUOTE. A COVID positive mother and daughter were wrongly directed to the emergency department waiting room of a major Perth Hospital! potentially exposing other patients, in an embarrassing bungle just days after Premier Mark McGowan delayed WA's border reopening. UNQUOTE.. The article goes on for half a page, but these two were confined at home under quarantine laws/rules, the youngster was vomiting and the mother phoned WA Health's Infection Control Unit, and was directed to take the child to the Fiona Stanley Hospital ED! They were met in a tent outside the ED by a nurse, the mother told the nurse they were both Covid Positive, the mother questioned the nurse when both were directed to the paediatric waiting room. It's crazy, the mother did everything right to protect others! Ended up that 5 families in the waiting room had to go into isolation, and the hospital said the nurse made a "mistake" it said the nursing assistant was replacing a triage nurse who had to leave the post momentarily and " dident know what to do " Geez and we folk wonder how this insidious disease gets passed around! ![]() |
