I am firmly with duck and johnny on this, just because your dose of covid was mild and you have had worse hangovers doesn't make covid a nothing virus. I was staying with family on the weekend and while they are not antivax they were definitely in the anti this vax camp. Up until now I have just avoided saying much because it wasn't worth it. They do get their news and information from the likes of ACA, Sky and fuckheadbook.
We were talking general shit and somehow the covid vaccine came up with the comment that they didn't believe in it because there are too many side effects because it was rushed through. I decided it was time to have a chat. So I said how long do you think it should have taken? Ah at least 10 years, maybe 20 years. So are you unaware that the basic corona virus research has been ongoing for longer than that and that the covid19 vaccine was an extension of that existing research? Then I copped what about the people who have brain damage and coronary problems from the vaccine? Is that real? Because if it was there would be more in mainstream media and not just the feeds you follow. And it may be real and just because I do not know of any such cases doesn't mean that it is not real but where is the reporting in something credible? You know that something like 10,000,000 people in the USA died from covid? Then I got how come you can still get covid even if you are vaccinated but you can't get TB or other diseases? Because they aren't the same, the covid vaccine was always aimed at reducing the effect on the patient and relieving pressure on the hospitals and as a virus it is constantly mutating. Mostly because dumbfucks are refusing to get the vaccine to help kill off the virus. Also are you saying that the time it took to develop vaccines for smallpox and polio etc are the gold standard and that we should be using the same clinical techniques to prove modern medicines? Do you understand how far medical science has progressed even in the last 10 years? There was no computer modelling, no accelerated testing back in the 50s and 60s and the the years that it took for results can now be done in minutes? Fuck me. I hit them with you guys left highschool at 15, you didn't do anything further and you think that a few posts on arsebook from similar people are more important and more factual than the published peer reviewed data from hundreds if not thousands of scientists and medical professionals who have spent their lives doing this work and specialising in fields that may not have even occurred in real life? I then said you can decide for yourself what you do, that is part of being an adult and making choices but the moment you as an uninformed and uneducated person start making recommendations to others you are well out of your league and should shut the fuck up and let others make their decisions and choices based on their own situations. You do not know more than a few thousand research scientists regardless of how much empathy you have for some weirdo on the book of shitstains.
We had a break. It will never be spoken of again.
