Popular Post richard_smith237 Posted August 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 19, 2020 IF a vaccine is proven to be both effective and sage over a reasonable period of time, then fair enough - give everyone the option to take. Be forthcoming with information and test results so that people can make an informed choice. However, IF a vaccine has been pushed through development, testing a research on the back of a global panic I then have great concern as to both the effectiveness and the safety. If the availability of vaccine becomes a political pawn the potential for damage to the health of many becomes a frightening prospect. Test, Test, Test and then test some more.. and while the governments are at it they can test the existing claims of drugs like dextramethazone (steroidal treatment) in the treatment of Covid-19 patients, and other drugs such as Avigan, while also paying attention to hydroxychloroquine as a potential prophylactic.... at least give them an honest test. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He justification was vaccinations in Oz are not enforced, which are weasel words. Oz school children must have current vaccinations to attend school. Morrison is now stating 95% of Australians should have a vaccination for Covid-19 when it is verified as safe to do so - wishful thinking is ridiculous.

thaibeachlovers Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 According to the news this morning he's had to walk that back, and it's not going to be compulsory. However, first there has to be a vaccine and that isn't guaranteed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything has a degree of risk. Clinical trials are utilised to identify, document and warn of risk factors. As already mentioned by Morrison, there will be some in the population who the medical profession will state should not use the vaccination due to risk profile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bkk6060 Posted August 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 19, 2020 Seen lots of interviews on worldwide news channels with people laying in hospital beds saying they wish they would have worn a mask and social distanced. So, the "I have rights I will not take the vaccine" crowd good luck. That is your right but I bet you will be very limited in your movements, travel, etc. without some proof of vaccination. So, hope you or one of your loved ones are not seen on TV one day saying "I wish I would have taken the vaccine" as they shove a ventilator down your throat.. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be safe," Professor Booy said. "We won't have a vaccine until many of the dozens have been tested and I think there is a good six or ten that will have some data on by early next year. Professor Booy added that we won't know how effective the vaccine will be against the virus for about two years. However, Dr Grenfell believes that even if the vaccine was only 60 per cent effective against the virus it would help "modify" the pandemic. "The sooner we can start vaccinating particular high at-risk segments of the population the better," he said. So, the prediction is for a max 60% effective vaccine earliest by Christmas and it will take about 2 years before we know the actual effectiveness. As I said before enforcing mandatory mass vaccination is absolute madness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that most recover, but the ones that get it bad, well their lives are going to be miserable for whatever time they have remaining, just thinking about shortness of breath, remembering when I had a severe chest infection and narrow windpipe from exposure to mould. They need to paint the picture as in the link, i.e. if you get it bad, it ain't gonna be pretty if you survive it afterwards, get the jab and it can stop it in it's tracks, I'm in like Flynn.

I clearly remember having to carry proof of inoculation against yellow fever in order to enter India in the early '70's.

Odysseus123 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I should think that if a general election was held today "ScoMo" would dance in (I do not usually vote for his party)-moreover the great majority of Aussies that I talk to appear to have no problems taking a vaccine when it is released. Listening to the fringe elements on talk-back radio is always entertaining but it is no more real than the posts on TVF... I would expect that if a vaccine was available that it would be as close to mandatory as you could make it both for incoming and outgoing travellers but only time will tell. I am in agreement with another poster that it is a pity that the PM backtracked at all.He should have kept it short,sweet and to the point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroveHillWanderer Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 18 hours ago, Peter Denis said: If your other customers did take the vaccine how could they be at risk? But of course the vaccine will only give 50% protection (60% tops), so this whole mass vaccination idea is total idiocy anyway. There is as yet, no coronavirus vaccine that has been proven safe and effective, and licensed for use. If and when it is, only then will it be possible to find out what level of protection it confers. There's no way to know just yet, which vaccines(s) will be approved and how effective such a vaccine will eventually turn out to be. What I would say is that all the published results for the phase 1 & 2 trials of candidate vaccines that I've seen, showed 95% or more of the participants who received a vaccine developed neutralizing antibodies and in some cases, 100% of them did. In addition (and possibly more importantly) several candidate vaccines induced a potent T cell response. In at least one of the vaccine trials, the antibody levels seen were up to 56 times greater than that found in convalescent plasma taken from the blood of recovered CoVid-19 patients. What we don't know yet though, is what exact level of antibodies or how strong a T cell response is required to prevent a person getting sick with CoVid-19. Hopefully the phase 3 trials will give us that answer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTXR Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 The "personal freedom anti-vaxxer, I won't do it, you can't force me" stuff just makes me laugh. After vaccines are mass produced and distributed, it is practically certain that in Australia, Thailand and probably most countries, without proof of COVID-19 vaccination you will be unable to: Enter the country. Board a bus, airplane, subway, etc. Work in any business that serves the public or has multiple employees. Get or renew a passport, visa, driving license, etc. Enroll a child in school. Visit or receive treatment at any health care facility. Good luck with that resistance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the "big pharma conspiracy folk take any medication of any description at all?? Blood pressure meds, insulin, antibiotics, cardiac meds? If so, where is your convictions and upholding of your theory? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
