Thats reflects some sense of emergency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a done deal, so he says. Apparently some doses are being privately imported right now, which was what sparked the flurry of "fake news" about Moderna last week. But maybe it's true. I dunno how or by who, but if it's some random dude smuggling vials through customs in his luggage (or elsewhere) I'd be wary. He would also have to be smuggling in a freezer to store the vaccine 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jeffr2 Posted June 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2021 4 hours ago, connda said: I fail to see why those in a low risk category (healthy young people) would want to expose themselves to vaccines adverse reaction risks regardless of how low we are told those risks are. Until these vaccines are approved for general use, these vaccines are only approved for "emergency use" as live-trial study data is still being collected for analysis (2021 - 2023) in order to make a case with each country's FDA to allow the future approval for the vaccine's "general use." Until then you are required to sign an informed consent form acknowledging the vaccine's risks prior to being given the shot. It's called greater good. Something you don't seem to care about. If you're not vaccinated, you're putting others lives at risk. Very selfish. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see long-term epidemiological studies as well as long-term adverse reaction data before getting anywhere near these new tech vaccines. Brings to mind Will Smith in the movie I am Legend.

At first, these topics reported officials saying no more than 3000 baht. Then, magically, it went to 3500 baht. A week or so later, that figure was fudged upwards to between 3500 and 5000.

RocketDog Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 At least the bottom line is now clear : If you want something other than Chinese or locally produced AZ, then you'll wait for months and you'll pay for it. In truth I think we've all known this for weeks or months already. I'm OK with that personally and will now tune out all the rancorous arguments and conjecture surrounding these issues. I don't find it entertaining so will go back to swatting flies now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nojohndoe Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 36 minutes ago, Fromas said: [Tin foil hat ON] I would avoid the mRNA vaccines like the plague. They contain magnetic trackers. They alter my DNA. They contain human fetal cells. Junk! Garbage! Conspiracy! [Tin foil hat OFF] Not at all sure I agree. I do have some suspicious reservations about the methodology involved but mRNA vaccine does not "alter" DNA. A few cc of vaccine could never contain sufficient magnetic material to create attraction. That myth has been a distortion of fact involving tracking devices incorporated into bulk shipping containers in case of theft. Fetal cells ? Or stem cells grown in a laboratory ? You did not mention micro chips. What about the global shortage which has been a problem for some automobile producers? With your tin hat on maybe there is an opportunity to consider it is because many millions have now had one embedded in their arm which is why so many are now programmed to utter the words Phizer and Moderna with enthusiasm ? lmao ! Ok. I will go back to popping corn on my I Phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommysboy Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 It's difficult for me to be confident of the mRNA vaccines because of the vigorous side effects that have become apparent whilst in conversation with some of the medics who have received them. Like others, I am braced for the possibility of a 24 hour fever/flu like illness, but what I'm not signing up for is a 3 day stint racked with fever and pain throughout my body, and that is significantly under reported in the media. I was shocked at the appearance of one of the guys. I know they are likely effective, but there's a 10% chance in my view that you are going to be subjected to a heck of a challenge. I believe that if these vaccines were subject to the microscopic analysis that has been given to AZ for instance then we would say an uncomfortable number of unexplained problems. I would still take any vaccine, but would much prefer the Sinovac since it uses the conventional, tried and tested methods which I am familiar with already. The side effects generally reported are truly mild, and that is consistent with my own experience generally with inoculations. I will feel more comfortable, perhaps, with the novel vaccines once they have been around for a few years and a proper review of their safety can be done. They do represent the future of vaccines.
