I have to out myself here. in October 2019, I visited a clinic in Los Angeles that was filled with Chinese people evidently flu patients (I came for something else). About 10 days later, I came down with what I thought was the flu, I was bedridden for 3 days with something nasty that, in retrospect, resembled Covid. After I got out of bed, I was sick for a month. In 2020, I began to suspect that I had an early case of Covid. So I went for an antibody test. Nothing. So, it was just a bad flu. no test = no Covid, as far as I am concerned. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it could be the vaccines that are juicing up the deadly variants, like the Delta that you mentioned, because as we can see, the number of different variants is significantly rising after the vaccines rolled out and is still able to infect not only unvaccinated people but also fully vaccinated people. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boedog Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Covid 19 cured patients, the only ones cured are the ones who have actually had covid and have natural immunity not the vaccinated ones as it is proven you can still catch and spread it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong, but you continually support Big Pharma at every turn. I invest in biotech companies and an important component of that is to closely follow how their molecules proceed through clinical trials. Even successful completion of a Phase 3 trial doesn't mean the company will prosper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(see lockdown measures aren't working ) I agreed with him then and I agree with him now. We have to stop cowering away from a pathogen that, for the vast majority of people, only causes a minor, short term illness and in many cases, no illness at all. Vaccinate and protect the vulnerable and the frontline workers, then let the virus have its way and put an end to this crazy situation. The sooner we do that, the sooner herd immunity will be achieved and we will all be much safer and very much relieved. The stress and strain that all this nonsense is causing on society is far worse than sickness itself. Your post makes sense, however, slow or no vax rollout means the minority who do get very unwell, quickly overwhelm the system, when the system is broke, were all vulnerable to worse outcomes for everything harmful. Here in particular, we deal with the insane road casualty rate, if deaths are in double digits, how bad are the serious injury numbers? And, there would have to be similar "industrial" casualties as workplace safety is a joke here. Since people are often selfish, lack hygiene basics, just plain stupid, or all three, how else can the world deal with it but by enforcing separations? Sure plenty lockdown rules are idiotic, but overall, if something better could have been done in the "smartest" places, it would have been done by now, surely? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not suggesting that. I am merely implying that the vaccines could have caused the mutations and different variants, especially those that have proved ineffective in preventing infections. Besides, infections can spread indirectly by the vaccinations, as when people gather in places like vaccination centers where they have a high risk of getting infected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulikens Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 14 hours ago, Danderman123 said: If not for the lockdowns, the death toll would be much higher. Your post illustrates a common fallacy here: if lockdowns work to reduce deaths, then some people claim lockdowns aren’t needed, since so few people died. You could also argue that vaccines aren’t needed in Chile, because there are only 800 new infections today. @Danderman123 if not for the lockdowns, the death toll would be higher..... if my auntie had bo***cks she'd be my uncle 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are 18 and healthy you don’t have the same risk as a person that is over weight, diabetic with a compromised immune system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post pepi2005 Posted August 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2021 VERY REASONABLE assessment - wow. Let's hope the rest of the world and it's delusional (or power hungry) politicians - especially the ones in Australia and New Zealand hear and somehow accommodate this reality in their brains very soon, thus saving their citizens from more moronic "lockdowns", pointless vaccine coercion or closure of their businesses. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaccinate and try and get on with life , we need normal asap and Thailand is killing itself with no plan of recovery. If what this guy says is true, I wonder what the time frame would be. I would think that if it is true, the whole world should just open up now and try and get back to previous years before the Cvirus came. what would there be to lose? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
