Not as unhinged as banning posters on a Conspiracy board for spreading 'misinformation.'

You derailed the US Politics thread with whinging about the rules and the mods, please don't do it in here. It invites trouble in and creates work.
 
It always was the right of everyone to refuse to vaccinate. Some have insisted on selfishness, unwilling to accept short term consequences of that choice, making demands that their choice not be vaccinated should be ignored and they can carry on as usual to weaken and whiteant the team.
Short term consequences? This discussion restarted with Stokey talking about the family that very nearly lost their livelihood over these mandates.

I'm done trying to discuss this with an army of mods who still think holding people's human rights to ransom was justified, even after the main plank of your argument (vaccination stops transmission) has been thoroughly refuted.

'Nearly lost' .. with plenty of government support to fall back on if they had. The kind of support that's provided being part of our society.

While very very early in and on the first few cases, I could have loosely assumed that vaccinations might knock this thing right out, I just looked and can't find anything to indicate I promoted the idea that vaccines would stop transmission.
 
Not really huge news, They've completed their seasonal vaccination program and have made a few changes going in to the new one, they're in a position to scale back.
Boosters maybe, but their children remain unvaccinated. Weren't we told that children needed to be?

Are you saying children weren't vaccinated in Denmark because my reading is that they were from 5yo up?

If they weren't though, not sure what your point is.
 
I'm guessing you saw one and are using it to paint everyone as crazy again.

You are crazy.

You had a bad case of COVID and your Wife is suffering from long COVID. Both of you were vaccinated. It would have been many (many) times worse for both of you if you were not vaccinated.

Yet you constantly post anti-vaxx shit on here to the exclusion of anything else.

There is a likely chance the vaccine literally stopped you from winding up in ICU. Still you rail against it.

Madness.

Utter bullshit.

I got Omicron and was vaccinated with AZ and no booster.

'Two doses of the AstraZeneca/Oxford, Pfizer/BioNTech, or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine offered limited protection against symptomatic infection with the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant, and although a third dose with any of the three vaccines boosted effectiveness substantially, it waned a bit over time.'


But yeah a mild flu would have turned into an ICU visit without this limited protection.

I am also the only member of my household to have not caught covid twice.

You literally sound like one of those crazy cult-like Bible bashers on street corners.

You are so invested in the vaccines and getting everyone to follow you that you have lost sight of all logic and reason. No one cares any more. People have moved on. I suggest you do the same before it utterly consumes you, but I fear it already has.

I can't imagine anyone supporting vaccine mandates or passports without believing that they stopped, or at least significantly slowed, transmission.

But it was imperative that the children got vaccinated. Now it isn't eventhough Covid is still very prevalent.

You do understand why people ask questions about these changes. Either the vaccines are required or they aren't.

And I can't imagine anyone not supporting mandates particularly in the health and aged care sectors, to fight against them imo is a show of very poor form.

Personally, I wouldn't freak out on detecting a few virus bugs up my nose. It's staying out of hospital I want to try and prevent.

My understanding is that Denmark did their own studies deciding that since most kids had some protection from the initial rounds of vaccinations and that Omicron wasn't going impact severely on them, that boosters weren't required.

How stupid are you? This has been explained to you literally a dozen times.

Protection against infection. Not efficacy against reducing the severity of the disease (when you actually catch it). They're different things.

Results from the Canadian Immunization Research Network (CIRN) with support from Public Health Agency of Canada and the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, published as a pre-print, demonstrated one dose of Vaxzevria was 82% effective against hospitalisation or death caused by the Beta/Gamma variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The vaccine also showed a high level of effectiveness against the Delta (B.617.2, ‘Indian’) and Alpha (B.1.1.7, ‘Kent’) variants with an 87% and 90% reduction of hospitalisations or deaths respectively.

Your single dose of AZ likely kept you out of Hospital or ICU, and instead had you sick with the Flu for a week.

Do you understand? The vaccine you took, stopped you from getting much sicker than you did get. It possibly even saved your life. That's the whole frigging point of vaccines.

People have moved on.

Yet here you are. Still spruiking the same crap, In your second incarnation.

So your proof is posting data that was published about 5 months before Omicron even existed and 6 months before I caught that variant.

Just wow.

You'd still have some residual protection against severe disease with your two initial vaccines.

Residual or 'Limited' protection is not going to be the difference between a flu and ICU. It might be the difference between hospitalisation and ICU.

Really would be no need for a booster if residual protection did such an amazing job.

This is pretty basic stuff. Haven't you been 'doing your own research'?

Do you think the vaccine kept me out of ICU when I caught a mild case of Covid with residual protection?
 
Bookmarked - another hysterical and wildly inaccurate prediction from October last year;

My prediction is

1. December - Open up. Cases stay low in summer. Vaccine hailed a great success
2. March - Cases rise tenfold. Lockdown comes back in. Everyone told lockdowns won’t end til we have 80 percent of people getting a booster . All borders shut
3. May - Exit 8 week lockdown in stages. Cases rise up and down still. The 20 percent unvaxxed without booster blamed. Crowds capped at 50 percent. 10 visitors, 4 sqm and so forth
4. September- Cases go up, New vaccine launches that targets Delta variant arrives. Less severe lockdowns brought in til everyone gets 2 doses of new vaccine
5. December - Open up, cases stay low, vaccine hailed a great success
