The fact is that it is only semi-successful, and immunity seems to wane far more quickly than we'd hoped. For sure, the novel vaccines are associated with thousands of adverse effects being reported. I am having a vaccine because at my age it outweighs the risk of not having one, but no way do I want it! 10% of the 'pfizer hags' are going to get one mighty whack from it. So to me it's like people forming a line, shouting 'punch me in the face first!' So if I see 'sinovac' on the label I'm not going to be that disappointed, as it does seem to have far fewer side effects. And a third shot will likely do the job, as would an updated version which is being developed now.

But I'm talking about high fever, vomiting, and extreme muscle aches- a vigorous flu like illness. It's rather more common than most of us would prefer with the novel vaccines.

Link, please. I’ll save you the trouble, as you are posting fake news. Vaccination reduces the chances of being infected.

I think that's always been the case. No Covid vaccine rates as 100% effective. So masks and social distancing can help to prevent the spread from an infectious person. (That's why hospital staff have been wearing masks for the past 100 years, it's not new news). And unfortunately if unvaccinated and hospitalized a person will probably be getting stronger and harsher drugs and treatment to try and save their life. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJ2U Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 4 hours ago, oldcpu said: Well done on successfully registering for Moderna. Both my Thai wife and I tried to do so on line, with separate computers, attempting at the same time. I was just a few seconds behind her (as I had to use Chrome to translate Thai to English language). She succeeded to register and pay, I did not. However my wife has only had 2 Sinovac jabs, while I have had one AZ (with my 2nd AZ planned for September) so clearly she needs a booster jab MUCH MUCH more than myself. We both discussed the possibility (some might say likelihood) of paying and not getting the vaccine. Given my wife's Moderna registration is through a Bangkok Hospital branch (here in Phuket), and given almost all private hospitals are severely suffering financially currently (due to very few medical tourists) we decided if she don't get the jab, and also we don't get our money back, its still ok with us. We would simply consider it a donation to a hospital. .... I note we have given many donations to Thai hospitals since the start of the pandemic, although almost all such donations have been to public hospitals. I have a Thai relative who is a doctor in Thailand, who also registered (and paid) for Moderna as a booster, however he will be getting (and may have received already) a Pfizer booster. So the 2 Moderna jabs he ordered/paid for won't be used by him, and so it will likely go to someone else. He also likely won't get his money back, but like us, he doesn't mind, and he considers it a donation. I concede many are not as fortunate as us, ... not many that can just shrug and consider paying for a vaccine not received from a hospital (in need) as a donation to a good cause. Thanks! Best of luck in getting a Pfizer jab, and the family a Moderna jab. Safe safe. Same to you. I just signed up for Pfeizer at Khon Khaen hospital. To far for you I assume. I'm signing up for whatever comes along. Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CartagenaWarlock Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) USA, UK, Israel, and Chile are showing the same infection rate per 100K population. How do I conclude SV is in effective? Even Israel is now thinking about boosters. No country has given any conclusive evidence that one vaccine is better in protecting from infection than the other. The CDC even drops their claim that vaccine can protect from infections. Now they are saying it only reduces risk of hospitalization and deaths which the seditionists in the USA dispute.

I can access last 7 day average infection rate per one million population. And here are the data. USA 2892, UK 3004, Israel: 4726, Chile: 285. Why BBC is not saying this fact? I remember BBC was shouting how Chile's vaccination with China VAX was so infective but now quiet about high infection rate in the UK and the USA. I can see the spin. One may argue that Chile data may not be accurate. So, i give a factor 10 for the uncertainty. Still Chile shows the similar amount of infection per million population in the last 7 day. Just because BBC says so, I don't accept it. I conclude based on my own analysis. And my conclusions is all vaccines have the same infection rate. May be BBC can spin with their efficacy rate BS but one the ground it is 7-day average of the infection rate per million population that I care.

CartagenaWarlock Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) No vaccines will prevent infection and all vaccines have same infection rate in the general population. Just a reminder with these data for most recent average 7-day infection per million population: USA 2892, UK 3004, Israel: 4726, Chile: 285. In April, Chile and Seychelles became scapegoats for low efficacy rate of Sino Vax and by August UK, USA, and Israel topped the list in infection rate with high vaccination rate of non-sino vax. And suddenly I see propaganda to undermine Sino vax stopped. Edited August 19, 2021 by CartagenaWarlock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chinese are the ones who incompetently (maybe even purposefully) unleashed this virus on the world and yet you trust them to competently solve the problem? Have you ever wondered how/why the Chinese were able to push so much of this krap on other countries (ie, Chile and other SA countries and even Thailand)? I'm sure it had nothing to their debt leverage or other factors over said countries or their ability to infiltrate and enhance their global power. This is just my opinion, and is only based on having worked directly with the Chinese and certain members of the CCP during my career.

Are you so blinded by the propaganda that you can't fathom what I am saying. I am not trusting China and also I am not trusting Western propaganda.

The western media don't want to talk about the shame of these high infection rate. Don't be a sheeple to propaganda. Don't trust anybody. Why are you afraid of making your own analysis with available data? Because it just does not jive with your belief and you're bringing who unleashed the virus as if that will change what is on the ground which is high infection rate in UK, USA, and Israel. You're parroting like a US seditionist who will say China unleashed the virus and at the same say the virus is not causing death and destruction in the West.

Bigoted much? And as anyone who looks at the actual studies knows, Sinovac's vaccine at least has been highly potent in reducing hospitalizations and deaths. The jury is still out on how well it compares to other vaccines in relation to reducing hospitalizations and deaths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be a sheeple to propaganda. Don't trust anybody. Make your own analysis because lots of data are now available now. The rates in US are soaring because you have anti-vaxers and anti maskers walking around and getting infected. Over 98 % of those getting infected now are unvaccinated.

"Are you so blinded by the propaganda that you can't fathom what I am saying." You forgot to put a '?" after "fathom what I'm saying". 2. "I am not trusting China and also I am not trusting Western propaganda." You are either Chinese or a Chinese sympathizer, which one is it? 3. "I am taking publicly published data and comparing it which the western media stopped doing as soon as the infection soared in UK, USA, and Israel to the highest level among heavily vaccinated countries." You've already lost credibility with points #1 and 2. 4. "You're parroting like a US seditionist who will say China unleashed the virus and at the same say the virus is not causing death and destruction in the West." Not sure what you're talking about, as I never said or even implied that and secondly, I do not own a parrot. 5. "These type dual conflicting comments is a perfect example of a sheeple who will buy anything coming out of the propaganda machine." I can guarantee you, if you have EVER read one of my posts, besides the one you're now responding to - you would clearly know that is NOT THE CASE. ????
