TRUMP is the one stirring the anti vax pot and makes REPUBLICANS not get the vaccine. Nobody cares about some random Joe Everyman that doesn't exactly trust this unproven new technology.
You only care when a REPUBLICAN POLITICIAN ANTI VAXER gets sick, THATS the problem.
And the only reason they believe that stuff is because of Donald Trump. This isn't a public health issue, it's a political one. You don't care about people or healthcare.
You are just a retard that is told to bark at the big bad scary orange man. Go on and keep barking because it's all you know how to do. You never cared about foreign affairs, health, the economy or anything until the media told you. And they only reason they tell you to care is because it's a political issue AGAINST THOSE ANTI VAXXER MAGA REPUBLICANS
If democrats were anti vaxxers you would flip sides so fucking quick, you don't believe in anything except what you are told to believe. -

Moderna vaccine creates twice as many antibodies as Pfizer: research
Justine Coleman
A study into the immune responses of the two scary science thing COVID-19 vaccines found that Moderna's vaccine created twice as many antibodies as the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine.
Researchers analyzed the antibody levels of Belgium health care workers after they received both doses of the vaccines, including 688 vaccinated with Moderna and 959 who received the Pfizer shots, in the study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association on Monday.
Among those who had not been previously infected, the Moderna recipients averaged 2,881 units per milliliter, compared to the Pfizer recipients who counted 1,108 units per milliliter.
Participants who previously contracted COVID-19 reported higher antibody levels, raising the overall average among all participants to 3,836 units per milliliter for Moderna and 1,444 units per milliliter for Pfizer.
The antibody levels in those who received Moderna were higher in infected, uninfected and across age categories, according to the study.
The researchers said the difference in antibody levels could potentially be attributed to the higher scary science thing content within the Moderna vaccine and the longer interval between the initial and second shots. The second vaccine of Moderna is given four weeks after the first shot, while the Pfizer vaccine is administered three weeks following the initial shot.
The antibody testing was conducted before vaccination and six to 10 weeks after the second dose. The study found the levels to be negatively correlated with age in those who hadn't been previously infected, with the highest antibody levels among those younger than 35.
This research follows a preprint study released ahead of peer review earlier this month that suggested that the Moderna vaccine's effectiveness dropped to 76 percent and the Pfizer shot's effectiveness fell to 42 percent in July when the delta variant had taken hold in the U.S.
That preliminary study from the Mayo Clinic emphasized that both vaccines still are highly protective against infection and serious illness. The research was also accompanied by a notice that the early findings "should not be used to guide clinical practice."
In the U.S., more than 94 million people are fully vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech shot, and more than 65 million are fully vaccinated with the Moderna vaccine. Another 14 million have received the single-dose Johnson & Johnson shot, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). -

‘I’ve Lost Track, Really’: Radio Hosts Are Being Killed by Their Own Anti-Vax Propaganda
The Daily Beast
A Florida talk radio host referred to himself as “Mr. Anti-Vax.” In Tennessee, a different conservative radio host recommended ivermectin, an anti-parasitic drug, instead of vaccines. Both died of COVID-19 in recent weeks, joining a score of prominent coronavirus skeptics and vaccine critics to succumb to the virus.
“I’ve lost track, really, of the number of low-level Republican celebrities and conservative media figures who have been hospitalized or died during the pandemic in recent weeks,” Matt Gertz, senior fellow at Media Matters, tells co-hosts Asawin Suebsaeng and Kelly Weill on this week’s episode of The Daily Beast’s Fever Dreams podcast.
Gertz (who is not, as Twitter users believe, the same person as embattled congressman Matt Gaetz) joins us to discuss the conservative media world’s COVID-19 response. It’s worse than casual Fox News-watchers might realize.
“It is not in their interest to be praised by mainstream journalists,” Gertz says. “What happened to Sean Hannity was, after he was wrongly portrayed by journalists and pundits as encouraging vaccination, he started getting attacked from the right. He started getting shots from right-wing hosts who were telling their viewers, ‘Sean Hannity’s gone soft on us.’ And then he needed to furiously backpedal because he was afraid of losing control of his own audience. So he ends up on his radio show [and] on his Fox show saying, ‘I've never told anyone to get a vaccine.’”
Elsewhere in the episode, Suebsaeng and Weill discuss conservatives’ bloodlust for military action in—if not re-invasion of—Afghanistan.
“I feel like a lot of Trump’s perception, including when he was president, about what the American military can or can’t do is informed by what he has seen in any number of Rambo sequels,” Suebsaeng says.
Speaking of Rambo knockoffs, we check in on a testosterone salesman-turned-wannabe Pennsylvania politician who threatened to bring “20 strong men” to a school board meeting to “remove” board members over the district’s mask mandate. Threats like that are playing out in districts across the country, where school board members, many of them unpaid, are facing angry crowds, including people who don’t even have children enrolled at the schools.
Finally, Fever Dreams listeners might remember the saga of Tonka the chimpanzee, a friend of actor Alan Cumming and the subject of one of the weirdest legal battles in America. The case took a turn for the even weirder this week when one of its lawyers, who also represents 18 Capitol riot defendants, went AWOL. Although the circumstances remain murky, one of his associates claims the lawyer—a vocal anti-vaxxer—has contracted COVID. -

The people going on about staying in Afghanistan are all jedis, and that's nice vicious projection by them, literally blaming the goyim who suffered most from what they themselves are pushing. "why did you let me do this to you" -

Is Jason Christoff & Cornwall Ontario Anti Vax & Hate Central in Ontario?
By Mary Anne Pankhurst
There’s no doubt that vaccine misinformation harms and kills people. Globally, the evidence for that is in. But do you know misinformation is also a money maker?
Fact is, Big Misinfo is a profit-making leviathan. It breaches in both physical and online communities, all tangled up with noxious and weedy conspiracy theories that infect peoples’ beliefs, encourage science denial, mistrust of public health advocates, and harassment and death threats to some.
The business also extends to promoters of some of the quackiest, goopiest, multi-trillion dollar features of the alt-med and wellness marketplace.
And apparently, some evangelicals are even cashing in.
Among the biggest media profiteers are Amazon, Facebook and YouTube.
Then there are the hundreds of small, generic personalities who mainly specialize in repeating misinformation.
Jason Christoff is among these, operating out of Cornwall, Ontario, the city he refers to as his “Kingdom.”
Very recently, Amazon and the others began taking a good long look in the mirror.
And while a few encouraging changes have begun, such as that Amazon has stopped selling a couple of books that promote dangerous, fake and abusive ‘cures,’ like bleach enemas for children with autism, the giants have Godzilla strides to make.
The deception business also includes a broad scope of businesses that are much less obvious, including pharmacies LINK and naturopaths who continue to sell homeopathy; chiropractors who may sell the idea that spinal adjustments can provide some kind of immune protection; and in Cornwall, media like Seaway News and the Freeholder who directly or indirectly made money from Jason Christoff’s columns while the gym-owner boosted his bottom line.
It’s a special kind of crazy. But clearly, there’s gold in them-thar anti-vaxx hills; big bucks to be made by the likes of Natural News, Mercola and Infowars (to name a few), all that exploit people, pushing them to embrace and share dangerous ideas like: “Bring on the Measles! I wish I could have been blessed with that infection as a healthy child.”
Blessed? Balderdash! Has anti vaccine and anti-science thinking become some kind of religion or are these beliefs symptomatic of some kind of 21st century sickness that historians will one day publish papers about, with titles like Backstories on the modern world’s return to the Dark Ages.
Ah yes, the anti-vaxx mommy types who think (like Christoff, who has an undergrad in labour relations) that “they know” all about microbiology, infectious diseases and immunology.
And at this link you can read about a mum who charges $200. for anti-vaccine workshops designed to inform misinform other parents.
Question: If she’s profiting from misinformation (as we see many others do) should she/they be held responsible if a child, contracts or dies from, a vaccine-preventable disease? LINK
What if once-deluded parents suddenly start fighting back; mounting cases seeking damages from the profiteers of wild ideas, false promises, products, books, newsletters, videos, movies, seminars or advertising?
It brings to mind a recent case in the US, where an herbalist went to jail for practicing medicine without a license, and isn’t this what many of the aforementioned profiteers are doing when they give unsubstantiated health advice?
In this case, the herbalist convinced a family to treat their son with lavender oil, in place of insulin for type 1 diabetes. The boy suffered and died because the herbalist told the boy’s parents that insulin is poison.
Jason Christoff often refers to vaccines as poison.
This is how crazy things have become in the era of Big Misinfo, and these outbreaks of deception bring to mind a story that ran in CFN a few weeks ago.
Acting on a Facebook post written by a mother who announced her baby had contracted and was suffering with measles, the CFN editor tried to confirm – with very good reason given the highly contagious nature of the disease – whether the public health unit or the hospital could confirm the claim.
But his question was met with silence.
So why, even if the mother’s claim was not true, would health authorities avoid a teachable moment about protecting, not only children, but babies too young to be vaccinated and the immunocompromised?
On this local note, I can’t help but think of this little girl from Cornwall, Vanetia Warner, who died after contracting swine flu (H1N1) in 2009. LINK
I’m not suggesting anti-vaccine views played a role in her death. Not at all. But I lived in SDG at the time – when so many were spewing hogwash about the swine flu vaccine – that I have never forgotten her.
It was such a tragedy, one so great, it boggles the mind how or why Christoff so commonly posts about his totally unvaccinated daughter. Especially when it’s highly probable that he and his wife had the luxury of benefiting from vaccine-protection, as well as herd immunity, in their own childhoods.
Christoff, and some of his fans, considers himself some kind of medical researcher. Don’t believe me?
Still not sure what I mean? Then consider this story, and ask yourself who or what might have governed and informed decisions made by these parents?
In summary, their six-year-old was infected by a life-threatening tetanus infection, suffered 57 days in intensive care at a cost of over $800,000, but refused the recommended tetanus shot before the boy was discharged from hospital. LINK
It’s 2019 people. Should peddlers of “good sounding” deceptions about infectious diseases and vaccines that eradicated diseases like smallpox (by 1977), have saved, and continue to save millions of lives get a free pass?
Gold in Them Thar Hills.

2021-09-02 at 6:40 PM UTCAccording to Speculum, only 5% of the elderly will die from Covid and only 1% of the rest will. Using his figures and researching where 16.5% of Americans are over 65 and assuming a population of 330 million Americans, that equates to 55.45 million elderly with 5% dying from Covid = 2.7225 million elderly dying from Covid.
Subtracting the 55.45 million elderly from the 330 million Americans we are left with 274.55 million non-elderly dying at a 1% rate = 2.7455 million non-elderly Americans dying from Covid.
Together the 2.7225 million elderly and the 2.7455 million non-elderly to die from Covid after everyone eventually does become infected (as Speculum claims will happen) = a total of 5.468 million (5,468,000) dead Americans.
Call me stupid, but I believe that everyone should be vaccinated to stop the dying at under 700,000 from Covid rather than waiting for the other 4.8 million (4,800,000) Americans to die.
Now, I realize these amounts of deaths will never happen any more as the number of Americans vaccinated grows. I just want you to look at the world Speculum and the rest of the anti-vaxxers envision as your future.
I also want you to look at the number of lives the vaccines have saved and are saving. Pretty damn impressive, don't you think?
