You didn’t keep your vaccinations up to date—the virus mutates! You don’t wear a mask. You eat in food courts. You visit big shopping centres in the middle of the day and you wonder how you got covid???
LastNail has really brainwashed you, hasn’t he?
Not just Sir Nail (although he did play a large part, I'm sure).
The following link looks into how the majority of the population have being 'brainwashed' into believing SARS-CoV-2 is just a cold.
Public Health Messaging Missteps Fuel Vaccine Disinformation(this is about the US but it also applies to Australia and most Western countries) Quote:Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, not only has there been an abundance of misinformation posted on social media about vaccines; public health officials and others have committed plenty of missteps in messaging.
A veritable flood of misinformation—often in the guise of unfounded conspiracy theories—coupled with poor communication from public health authorities contributed to the U.S. having worse Covid-19 outcomes than its peers. This is partly due to the fact that among people most at risk of severe disease—the over-65 age group, immunocompromised and those with other comorbid conditions—the U.S. trails other wealthy nations in Covid-19 vaccination rates.
Quote:In their book, The Big Myth: How American Business Taught Us to Loathe Government and Love the Free Market, Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway suggest that many millions of Americans seemed to either “disbelieve what government officials were telling them about Covid-19 or to regard public health measures such as vaccines and mask mandates as encroachments on their liberty.”
Oreskes and Conway claim that 40% of Covid-19 deaths could have been prevented if Americans trusted science and government more.
Quote:In parts of America, an inherently libertarian streak averse to government mandates of virtually any kind appears to have played a role in opposing nonpharmaceutical interventions, such as masks and social distancing, as well as Covid-19 vaccine requirements.
What’s disturbing is that the Covid-19 pandemic seems to have also brought out the vaccine skeptics in full force, not only toward coronavirus vaccines but also traditional childhood immunizations, like those targeting polio, tetanus and measles.
From smallpox inoculations—which began in the late 18th century and ended when the disease was eradicated in the 1970s—to mumps, rubella, tetanus, diphtheria, polio and measles immunizations, vaccination has saved millions of lives and prevented crippling and life-threatening illnesses from occurring.
And, the 'peer pressure' to no longer wear a mask is getting greater and greater as time goes on. I found it interesting that the day after mask mandates in shops and other places were scrapped in WA last year many people were still wearing them but over the next few days the number dropped and dropped until only about 5% of people were wearing them. The number is now down to about 1% from what I see when I'm shopping.
Obviously many people were not aware that the mask mandates had been scrapped and continued to wear them the next day but word got around that masks were no longer mandated "you don't need to wear those anymore" (I even had a receptionist say that to my aunt and I at our GPs' office a couple of months after the mask mandates were scrapped).
This is going to be one of the unintended negative consequences of the covid vaccine
Polio tetanus measles mumps and rubella hepatitis b vaccines are extremely effective
You may need a booster after 20 years but basically they provide nearly 100% protection
By conflating these excellent vaccines with the ludicrously ineffective covid vaccines
A lot of the general public are likely to lose faith in the vaccination process itself
How can the covid vaccines even be called a vaccination when they do not prevent infection and they do not prevent transmission
What the authorities should do is admit they got it wrong
When they said this all ends when we get enough jabs in arms
They need to look the Australian public in the eye
And apologise for such an outrageous lie
They need to then throw all the covid vaccines in landfill
Actually they seem to be doing this with two billion being disposed of
But they need to separate this useless vaccine
From the other very effective vaccines
To not do so will cost lives
And not the lives of 90 year olds with dementia
It will cost the lives of infants and young children
Who any rational person realize are our most precious generation
