The lack of interest in India's stunning performance from the rabid pro-vaxxers suggests to me its more about compliance than the disease itself.

 

[Gralin]

They made progress on an mRNA vaccine for SARS-COV-1? I'd be interested in your source for that.

Don't know if there was an mRNA specific one my point was they arent starting from scratch with anything that is available

India got absolutely clobbered.

Three New Estimates of India’s All-Cause Excess Mortality during the COVID-19 Pandemic

India lacks an authoritative estimate of the death toll from the COVID-19 pandemic. We report excess mortality estimates from three different data sources from the pandemic’s start through June 2021. Estimating COVID-deaths with statistical confidence may prove elusive. But all estimates suggest...

Positive test rate has collapsed from over 20% to just north of 1%.

Positive test rate has collapsed from over 20% to just north of 1%.

"In fact, hydroxychloroquine was reported to be in widespread use well prior to the country's second-wave outbreak."

India may be reaching 'endemicity' after emerging from its second COVID-19 wave

Experts say so many people caught the virus during the Delta-driven second wave earlier this year that it's helping to keep a lid on the problem, but the big question is for how long.

During the First World War Australians as young as 14 gave false ages in order to join as soldiers. Today, parents are posting photos of their 14 year-old boy getting a vaccine.

If only they had social media back then right?

India are testing 1.2 million per day. That is the equivalent to Victoria testing 5000 per day.

remember when Scotty was pushing the kids cannot get it.
Political points when Vic closed schools.

In Vic, Dan shut the schools when kids couldn't get it, but opened the schools now there's a strain they can catch and yet can't be vaccinated.

View attachment 1275599

he shut everything down with one case

now we open and avg 1200
LGA vax figures out tomorrow all the unvaxed areas still high in cases
The double vaxed will probably not get tested for a sniffle and spread it
not sure latest breakdown in case profile wonder how many under 12 now schools back
ok locked up a big chunk


add that 16-34 least vaxed and most mobile

Gina, not her real name, is married to a 61-year-old transport worker who is one of the small minority Victorians who refuses to have a COVID-19 vaccine, despite his wife and adult children all having had the jab.

In fact, he recently paid cash to an unknown medical professional for two falsified MyGov vaccination records.
It means he appears fully vaccinated to businesses through check-in apps.
“Everyone was filthy on him when he came home and told us that,” says Gina, who spoke to The Sunday Age anonymously about her sensitive situation.
She reported her husband to the Premier’s office, and is also toying with the idea of telling police about his falsified records.

“I don’t know if I want to go down the police line though,” she says. “I don’t want vaccination to be the breakdown of my marriage.”


With social gatherings back and Christmas just weeks away – her husband’s scepticism about COVID-19 vaccines is driving a wedge through the family. Gina has told him he can’t come to family dinners, but he’s adamant he will anyway – and sit solo at a table away from his family.

Gina’s been warning friends, family and even local businesses not to believe her husband’s claims about being vaccinated. But despite her exasperation, Gina says she isn’t planning to divorce him after 35 years.

‘Like watching them drown’: When loved ones go down the vaccine rabbit hole

Many of us know a relative, friend or acquaintance who is refusing to take a COVID-19 vaccine. But what’s life like for their nearest and dearest?

A friend of mine broke off a relationship because his gf was adamantly anti-vaxx even to the point of losing their job and wanting to move interstate, and my wife has a friend who's going through relationship struggles because her husband refuses to get the vaccine.

I can understand vaccine hesitancy, but some of the opposition is next level. Differing views must be placing a strain on a lot of relationships.

I remember hearing something about politics being a factor in whether relationships work or not. I've known people that have switched sides because of their partner. My mate has gone from a hard core Labor supporter to a liberal voter. I would imagine it being the same with being anti vax or not. Someone either changes their views or the relationship could get strained.

You can understand it being a deal breaker, especially such a hot button topic with significant real-world consequences.

Have you and your wife considered setting up the pro-vax friends (I DGAF what happens with the other two)?

 

[mouncey2franklin]

This also isn't like a medicine you have to take long term, we dont have a history or effects taking years to show up

Are you sure about that?

 

[Gralin]

Are you sure about that?

that its not like blood pressure meds, or insulin, or anti depressants or blood thinners or beta blockers etc?

yeah, why does that confuse you?

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

These vaccines haven't. It was around a year.

You are actually of quite limited intelligence aren't you?

 

[faible]

ok

I too hate that modern technology allows things to be done that were never possible previously, or things that have been done previously, but at a speed that wouldn't have been possible.

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

heck me dead...you are posting propaganda from a known and exposed quack to make your point?

The mods should be taking this stuff down from this site and blocking the perpetrators. It doesn't help fuel considered discussion. It is nothing more than psuedo-scientific nutjobbery.

Do better.

I believe you just have to have someone shoot you with a shotgun cap (just the one) filled with invermectin, zinc, vits a, b, c and d to cure the old Covid cold.

"Magic Bullet" gets thrown around alot and im sure thats how it works.

If diabetes was managed with a shot of insulin every six months or so, my sugar intake would increase dramatically (once I saved up for a nice set of false teeth).
