Hmmm... USA had 300,000 new infections the other day, that's almost 0.1% of their population.

This link has a break down of the vaccination numbers and the reactions.

wtf you on about... i guess that means preventive surgery is out, you might have to have some bed rest afterwards...

It's a vaccine (yes I know there are several that are likely to be available here in Australia this year) that has been proven (in a double blind randomised trial no less) to be extremely effective at preventing infection, or at the very least, significantly reducing the affects/seriousness of being infected with this potentially fatal disease.

People might claim that it's development was rushed, but considering that many labs and companies had already been working on Corona virus vaccines and the near unlimited amounts of cash and resources that were thrown into the RnD this year, it actually seems entirely reasonable to develop a vaccine ready for release less than 10 months after the virus genome was sequenced.



Sure, but a (relatively) small-scale trial over a short time period may not pick up small risks that have an impact on a large population, and an expedited schedule for development and delivery may result in manufacturing/production errors that erode public trust in vaccines.

Eg, 1974 swine flu vaccinations which were rolled out in 7 months and then terminated due to an association with increased risk of Gullain-Barre syndrome; 1955-1963 polio rollout which was contaminated with simian virus (as the virus was grown on monkey tissues and the scientific assumption was that formaldehyde would kill it); or the first polio rollout where one of the labs infected 200,000 kids with live polio rather than the attenuated virus and 40,000 contracted it.

So agree a lot of work has been done, and a lot of resources have gone into it, but there is no substitute for scale and time for verifying efficacy or identifying impacts that may not be visible on a small population. The vaccines we have today are extraordinarily safe because of decades of data and refinement, and there is a risk when a response is undertaken in a compressed timeframe that you introduce a new risk, and also discourage vaccination in general, which would be a worse outcome in the long run.

If its only 62% effective, then maybe more people need to get it to get this thing sorted out.

I wonder what happens if you just take a 3rd dose. Is it like paint that's a bit thin, and you get round the problem by putting on an extra coat?

Three doses won't work.

If 2 doses provide 62% then a 3rd dose will only get you to 91.5%. Pretty simples maths really.

And 91.5% isn't enough.

Bill's chips crash unless they are running at 100%. At 91.5% they will have to be repeatedly turned off and re-booted. Each time they will lose half the data, even with the backup recovery files. And if they are down for 8.5% of the time this may create issues allowing your mind to go partial or even total recall.

At 91.5% Greta may be able to get to the cellar and active the oxygen generator. And they can't have that.

What a sh1tshow of note. We've got data coming out from all over the world that the I+MASK protocol developed by the FLCCC is a game saver and here in good old Aus the gubmint has to launch a 24 million dollar marketing campaign for a vaccine no one is sure is going to work effectively!

Really? There is data coming out from all over the world? I took a couple of seconds to read one of the links that Google returned and this doctor seems to have a reputation as a skeptic. When you have a reputation like that it seems to overshadow your objectiveness.

Is there more than this doctor that is reporting this 'data'? He seems to be responsible for coming up with a protocol for something else that people are not in agreement with.

The NSW premier just said this morning at one of their press conferences that she would like to see an app that you could show prior to entering a business, eg restaurant etc, that you had been vaccinated.
Now my first thought was that any business that restricts access is on a sure road to bankruptcy, but maybe people who are vaccinated will seek out these businesses.

Thing I've been wondering about is whether tin-foil facemasks would block the 5G signals from the chips in the vaccine.

Could be a way to get all the benefits but none of the downsides ?


A double layer tin-foil full face mask with a crystal in it would surely work.

Given that they hadn't already died of it because they hadn't caught it, seems a bit ... unnecessary?

If you vaccinate say, all or most of NZ, and that statistic holds, you're going to kill more people with the vaccine that you've allowed the disease to take.

But the disease has been kept out of NZ by strong border control and a hard lockdown. That can't go on forever.

Arguing against the vaccine because a small number of people have a bad reaction makes about as much sense as saying that bushfire fighters shouldn't do backburns because a few trees get burned.

Right, which means they can't open the country until the rest of the world has sorted itself out.

No no no... not arguing against a vaccine FFS, relax. If you're going with analogy, then get it right: what happened in Norway is like doing back burns and burning down some houses with people inside; then concluding "well that's fine, we got our back burn done what's the problem? The rest of the forest is ok."

And after all, aren't we doing all this to keep poor old Grannie out of the morgue...? One death is too many and all that ... and yet suddenly people are being all blas? about people dying of ... COVID measures.

Perhaps the testing shouldn't have been so rushed...?

not exactly revising it to a resounding positive:

Because of these limitations, the Panel cannot draw definitive conclusions about the clinical efficacy or safety of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19. Results from adequately powered, well-designed, and well-conducted clinical trials are needed to provide more specific, evidence-based guidance on the role of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19.

You're quite right. They don't have bushfires in Norway. I'd like to be able to draw an appropriate analogy for the Scandinavians, but I don't know enough about lemmings.

However, in favour of backburning, the fire is generally cooler, so the worms in the soil under the forest don't get fried. That leaves a space for ivermectin to do its stuff
