Conspiracy Theory Coronavirus #2: Lockdowns

[Bumpswithagrin]

Ha ha, the Nine Entertainment shill, freak Knut removed the tweet after totally copping it, with people calling him Hitler, a fascist, etc, etc, etc ..however:

There are other shills in the media, but some using a much softer message:

Damn! My response to him got the most likes I've ever had on Twitter.

These people are so devout they espouse the mutually contradictory aspects of their faith. Like wearing masks outdoors, when the science (which we're supposed to trust) tells us that there is almost zero transmisibility outdoors.

there’s almost zero chance of dying in a car accident but:
- we wear seat belts
- drive cars with airbags
- observe speed limits
Your argument is Illogical - we take many precautions against events, despite them having little chance of occurring.

Which is exactly what happened to me and no doubt countless others. I lost two loved ones last year (not from Covid) and could not attend their funerals. The son of one of them had not seen his mother for two months before she died.

I haven't got time to list how all of the Covid restrictions and impositions have affected me and those close to me, yet I don't even know anyone that has tested positive let alone died from it. It really is unconscionable that people are still cheering on these draconian measures that have caused so much pain and suffering after more than a year. There really are some horrible people on this earth.

Australia did a good job at controlling it unfortunately we lost some of our freedums because of the technique used
Other countries who stuffed up the controlling had their citizens lose their freedums in different ways
No one wins but I think I still preferred what we did

If we got the vaxing and isolated quarantine right we could open now

I'm just countering the anti-vaxers and the misleading stats.
Vaccination = less deaths and that is accepted by the experts.

The second quote from the TGA mentioned it’s recommendation regarding vaccines which you have echoed.

I want to know which stats were misleading according to you?

Just the general vibe of all the posts, quoting Alex Jones , using 'facts' from far right wing websites ect.
Statements that vaccines will kill more people than the virus.
Generally speaking it's the anti-science posts and mocking of experts and deliberate misinformation .

All the establishment acronyms apply... ABC, CDC, CIA, SBS, WHO, BBC, GOV, EDU, 10 9 8 7, NASA, 666, ETC... DISNEY...
COVID - Certificate Of Vaccination IDentification... 19... 1 - A 9 - I ... AI - Artificial Intelligence

And when you do a thorough analysis of COVID reduction due to the Jab and projected lives saved compared to deaths from Jabs, then we can have a sensible debate - right now your peddling BS.

Yes, since the jabs are here, people can fudge the numbers by saying they've have saved lives, which will be impossible to prove. However, we do know that before the jabs arrived, only 20 outside of Vic and NSW died during that whole period. Are you gunna try to tell me that the death-jabs won't do more damage than that from now on?

Does it concern you that the TGA expected more deaths following vaccination even though the TGA stated that the vaccines haven’t directly lead to a death?

What's your position? Are you an anti-vaxer?

I’m simply saying your argument is missing the other half of the equation - COVID rates have dropped everywhere in the First world after jabbing has started - therefore deaths and hospitalizations have dropped.
So go and do the cost benefit analysis and let’s see whether your argument holds.
I tipping it will not.

If you support every vaccine except the Covid vaccine does that make you an anti-vaxxer?

Aristotle has to be a paid troll, Coming here to dislike anything that doesn't fit his narrative.

We’d be forgiven for thinking you are a paid troll of xxxxxx ( insert Max Igan or any other fringe anti vaccination or COVID conspiracy theorist ) - each to their own.

Ok dude sounds good

Correct. If people want them, go your hardest but lets not pretend corona is particularly dangerous for most age groups. Its proven in the statistics, this shouldnt even be argued yet somehow is

True this is not serious for most. Yes it is for some immune compromised but they are at increased risks of many other diseases.
People just have this weird need to believe Covid is this Armageddon like threat when it isn't.
In a state of 6.8 million size of most small countries we have 30 cases 1 in ICU. And we close.
Last year during the press conferences Andrews was giving updates on those who died (most over 85) ignoring all other deaths and those who died of delayed medical care or suicide as a result of this lunacy.
It really is beyond a joke now. And all the people just blindly defending this out of bias fear or some other reason ignoring all facts and any sense of proportion does my head in.
Need a break the rest of the day to another thread maybe or do something away from my phone.
On a personal note this is unhealthy. I'll post back when I've got something new to add as anyone on these pages knows my opinion by now.

Never to the extent of what is happening now. We're not mitigating risk, we're refusing to take any at all. Unless you're a footy or tennis player, in the racing industry, extremely wealthy etc then you can do whatever you want.

It makes you a covid anti-vaxer. Most covid anti-vaxers would be also too scared to take a flu vaccine.
I don't like to take the flu vaccine because I don't see it as necessary but I will take the covid vaccine because I don't want to end up in hospital wasting society's resources.I also don't want to inadvertently kill anyone else.

I am not against vaccination and aside from covid, my serology is up-to-date. The biggest issue I have with this vaccine is not having enough information for informed consent.

From the abc

Informed consent and the obligations of doctors - ABC Religion & Ethics

The COVID-19 pandemic raises many complex ethical issues — one of the thorniest is that of informed consent to vaccination. In order to obtain informed consent, or allow for informed refusal, the person must be offered all medically indicated treatments and advised of the risks, harms, benefits...

www.abc.net.au

To obtain an informed consent to, or informed refusal of, any given treatment, the person must be offered all medically indicated treatments and the risks, harms, benefits, and potential benefits of each and of refusing all treatment must be disclosed. Failure to do so would negate informed consent to any vaccine given, even, possibly, if the required disclosure regarding that vaccine were made.

Phase 3 trial data will be available in January 2023 so I’d be much for comfortable with it once I read the data.

If we dont have quarantine we are even less open

Poster derided the fact we wear mast when there’s zero chance of getting COVID - I was making the point it was a foolish argument, given we seek protection from equally unlikely events.
So the “masks are useless argument” is like saying “seat belts are useless”.

I agree COVID policy around sport has head scratching double standards.

Ah, the old seat belt analogy rears its ugly head again.

Fair call.Im a smoker so I'm getting it. I don't like having breathing difficulties it scares me.Also I'm living with a 70 yo who isn't getting it until Pfizer comes in so I don't want to be responsible for giving it to him.

If you didn’t want to waste society’s health resources you wouldn’t smoke.

I've just booked my vaccine for the 26th of June to protect myself, my housemates and the community in general.
I don't want to die like a fish out of water gasping for air like the scenes in India.
I also want to avoid adding to the burden on Melbourne nurses and hospitals.
I know 12 people who have had the vaccine and the worst side effect was a headache that was fixed with a panadol.
We all know how many nursing home resident's died a horrible death last time and I don't want to contribute to that by refusing a vaccine.

I've got some bad news for you. If you die a natural death from old age you will most likely die like a fish out of water gasping for air. I could go into more details but that's basically what happens, have seen it with both my parents. Those nursing home residents that died a horrible death last time had the kind of death most nursing home residents have whether it's called Covid or something else. Quite disgusting the way that Daniel Andrews used their deaths to further his agenda.

The only thing you are trying to protect yourself from is fear.
