She means government financed ones. Real news doesn't match the dogma.Why centrist?
Merry Christmas to all.
Which is why this govt left the borders WIDE open for immigration, including illegals during the pandemic. Because of their undying commitment to the public's health.Goddamn your paranoia is really out there.
Public health is part of the Government purview and has been for decades.
Yep. and the Covid vaccine was tested on the entire population.That's true, that's why vaccines ARE tested.
So. . . Trump's a lying sack of shit and Operation Warp Speed was another con job?Yep. and the Covid vaccine was tested on the entire population.
It takes about 5 years for a new vaccine to be rolled out, sometimes longer. This vaccine was rolled out in literally months. They lied about its efficacy. Hell, they even changed the definition of "vaccine" to make up for its lack of efficacy.
YOU were the vaccine test.

Wow. You absolutely hate having to accept the truth. Thats highly a feminine trait. Im still waiting fof something masculine from you to prove youre "nonbinary".Yep, it was, because the population demanded it, or do you not remember that part?
Under normal circumstances, that's true. Do you know why?
Yep, because it was demanded.
Did they? Considering where we were vs. where we are now, I'd say that it was a pretty normal efficacy for a vaccine.
No, they didn't. YOU and others like you just didn't understand what vaccine meant.

So will you say "Well shucks, I'm sorry I got that wrong then?" and stop lying?
Yep.
Considering my situation at the time, I was good with it.
You were free NOT to get the vaccine, you just had consequences you had to consider if you didn't.
I get why people were sus about it, so was I, but weighed against the alternative, and as more knowledge came out about it, I got the shot. No issues what so ever since.
Yes, there were people who did have problems, but then not every vaccine works for every person, and sometimes adverse reactions happen from mild to serious, to death.
But as with other vaccines, that doesn't mean we shouldn't have them at all. Or are you advocating for that?
Demanded something that didn't exist yet? Okay. And the only demanding I heard was from hysterical nut jobs demanding people be forced into vaccinations if need be or thrown in some gulag.Yep, it was, because the population demanded it, or do you not remember that part?
Yeah, it's called public safety and regulations.Under normal circumstances, that's true. Do you know why?
By whom? The WHO? Big Pharma? The politicians who stood to make a small killing from it? You're telling me that throngs of people were insisting that they be experimented on. Is that what you're insisting?Yep, because it was demanded.
Was it? Considering Covid really was no worse than a nasty strain of flu as far as mortality rates go and who those rates affected.Did they? Considering where we were vs. where we are now, I'd say that it was a pretty normal efficacy for a vaccine.
5 years of biology, Toots. I know what a fucking vaccine is. I don't recall stories of hospitals being jammed with patients after getting the small-pox vax. I don't recall stories of hospitals being jammed with patients after getting the polio vax. I don't recall hospitals being jammed with patients after getting the MMR vax, although I did ultimately get the mumps, still wasn't hospitalized for them. Hell, we even stood in line at school to get booster shots from visiting nurses. Those vaccines provided near 100% efficacy although as I'm sure you know vaccines aren't going to be 100% effective for 100% of the population.No, they didn't. YOU and others like you just didn't understand what vaccine meant.
I'm not lying. I looked up the on-line definition of vaccine during Covid and it sure as fuck wasn't anything I heard in 5 years of biology or anything I or anyone of my generation experienced with vaccines.The Meaning of Vaccine Is the Same as It Was in 1796, Regardless of Online Conspiracy Theories

This was rather less successful than previous vaccines when it came to protection. If you were fine with being a guinea pig that's your choice. I wasn't fine with it. I also wasn't fine with the shit-sucking attitude of those who wanted to force it on everyone. Especially from a govt that kept Canada's borders wide-fucking-open during the entire pandemic. How fucking serious could Covid have been if the govt wasn't taking it seriously?Yep.

Yes they are in many instances.

But Vaccines are junk.
Is it? Why? Are they forcing untested vaccines again?
Cause even if it's a cure, it's evil.
Nope, that's a socialist thing, like in the People's Republic of Canada.Is it? Why? Are they forcing untested vaccines again?
True but you will lose your career if you refuse.Nope, that's a socialist thing, like in the People's Republic of Canada.
