2021-08-06 at 5:13 PM UTC in Vaccine Mandates
Originally posted by ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What these morons like st|1 can't realize (because their IQs are way too low), is that it's literally impossible to stop the spread of a coronavirus.

Nobody can. So all their retarded lockdowns did was cause great damage and great harm to the middle class, their businesses were destroyed by the millions, while the rich, like Bezos, survived them quite comfortably, and even tripled their net worth in a single year. All thanks to senseless, ignorant and terrified idiots like st|1.
none of them realize how insideous this covid thing really is.
by the time you have 10 people showing their covid symptoms to the doctor, there are already at least 10³ others who were infected and yet shown no sign at all of having covid. -

Since the Covid pandemic broke out, Sweden has been fought over more than any other part of Europe since Germany in the 30 Years War. In refusing to use an iron fist to control a virus, lockdown advocates claimed it was either committing murder or suicide; choose your favorite metaphor. Relatively few such as me, in three separate articles, claimed the Nordic country was sparing both the economy and something called “liberty” with its light-handed approach. My favorite title (editor chose it): “Media Enraged That More Swedes Aren’t Dying.”
Thus last year we saw such headlines as CNN’s “Deaths Soar In Country That Didn’t Lock Down. Officials Identify Big Reason Why.” Around the same time “Sweden Steadfast In Strategy As Virus Toll Continues Rising,” claimed another source. “Sweden’s Coronavirus Strategy Drives Up Infection Rate,” screamed the BBC. Everyone was playing pile-on. “Sweden Has The Highest Daily Coronavirus Death Rate In The World – And It’s Getting Worse.” That’s from Yahoo Sports. Sports?
Modelers desperately tried to scare Sweden into locking down. One predicted an incredible median of 96,000 deaths, with a maximum of 183,000. At Sweden’s Lund University an academic used the parameters in the now-infamous Neil Ferguson/Imperial College model to warn that it meant 85,000 deaths for Sweden. An Uppsala University team also found the nation paying a terrible price with 40,000 Covid-19 deaths by May 1, 2020 and almost 100,000 by June.
Total Swedish Covid deaths at this writing: 14,651.
It’s not that Sweden did nothing – but very little. “From the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Public Health Agency . . . embarked on a de-facto herd immunity approach, allowing community transmission to occur relatively unchecked,” declared a scathing editorial in the leftwing medical journal The Lancet last December. “No mandatory measures were taken to limit crowds on public transport, in shopping malls, or in other crowded places,” it said. “Coronavirus testing, contact tracing, source identification, and reporting, as recommended by WHO, were limited and remain inadequate.” High schools closed temporarily, but grade schools never.
“In our view,” snarled The Lancet, “there is still not sufficient recognition in the national strategy of the importance of pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic transmission, aerosol transmission, and use of face masks.”
Time to revisit Sweden as much of the world starts locking down and masking again regardless of vaccination levels, blaming the Delta variant. And those impudent Swedes are pretty much refusing to die of Covid at all.
Not to say that vaccines haven’t contributed to the current low numbers, but … cases peaked during the first week of January while vaccinations didn’t even begin until the end of that month. Currently Sweden ranks 18th in Europe in vaccines per capita, right in the middle. Likewise, there are those who say Sweden finally buckled down and imposed serious restrictions. It didn’t. It imposed more restrictions in the second week of January, perhaps more in response to international opprobrium than anything else. But yes, it was after cases not only had started dropping but actually plummeted by more than half.
What’s happening? According to an as-yet unpublished but online study by two Svenske researchers, it appears the country has reached that Holy Grail of Covid called “herd immunity.” That means a level where those already protected are significantly guarding those without exposure. Mind, they say, it’s not all from Covid-19 per se but possibly in great part to “pre-immunity” from other infections. Four coronaviruses are known to cause colds, but the researchers actually don’t even mention that. It’s just that previous exposure to something seems to be providing natural inoculation. And it shouldn’t be as unique to Sweden as Ingrid Bergman.
Mind, the current figures are just a snapshot. Did the country pay an awful price en route to the apparent herd immunity? Well, certainly the Swedish death rate is higher than its Nordic neighbors Norway, Denmark, and Finland. Those are the comparisons you’ll hear. But it’s well below the rates for larger-population European countries including Belgium, Italy, the U.K., Romania, Spain, France, and Portugal. The U.S., too.
Sweden’s chief epidemiologist Anders Tegnell, who caught absolute hell, feels vindicated. “Locking down is saving time,” he said last year. “It’s not solving anything.” In essence the country “front-loaded” its deaths and decreased those deaths later on.
Meanwhile, the Swede haters have also insisted that in exchange for its “butcher’s bill” the country was deriving little or no economic benefit from not shutting down.
“Sweden unlikely to feel economic benefit of no-lockdown approach,” warned the Financial Times in a May 10, 2020 headline. It admitted that so far Sweden has fared better, but select “analysts” cautioned it wouldn’t last.
Wrong. Despite Sweden inevitably feeling undertow from economies that did lock down, “Covid-19 has had a rather limited impact on its economy compared with most other European countries,” according to the Nordetrade.com consulting firm. “Softer preventative restrictions against Covid-19 earlier in the year and a strong recovery in the third quarter contained the GDP contraction,” it said.
Thus the country the media loved to hate is reaping the best of all worlds: Few current cases and deaths, stronger economic growth than the lockdown countries, and its people never experienced the yoke of tyranny.
Not surprisingly, it’s not just Sweden’s pro-freedom position on Covid that sticks in the MSM’s craw. Though routinely labeled “socialist,” it ranks 10th out of 190 economies for ease of doing business, according to the World Bank’s Doing Business report for 2020.
Which for a lot of people is presumably another good reason to hate them.

Yes.
Will your chances of getting sick from Covid and ending up in the hospital on a ventilator or dying go to practically zero after being vaccinated?
Yes.
Do us all a favor and go suck up a lot of air with no mask on, you worthless waste of space.
thats another instant where "experts" are wrong.
ventilators arent effective at all at treating patients with lung damages.
what they really need are ecmo machines.

Originally posted by ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Q. How come you said the experimental mRNA gene therapies should not be mixed, but then came out weeks later to say it was fine to mix?
A. We lied to you.
vaxx mixing is good for the drug company to deny responsibility in the future when the detrimental effects of these vaxxs are known.
just like a woman who has been sleeping around cant possibly know whos the father of her baby is, people who received mixed vaxxs wont know who to blame in the future when the horrors begin. -

I'm not going to find a new place to live.
My credit history looks like a bad joke.
My rental history is harder to verify than the origins of Covid.
And my employment is as young as a woman only Wariat would pursue.
Tired of being let down and facing the consequences of my past for a while.
Im just going to go with the option of staying where I am at unless Michelle doesn't find a place in the next couple of weeks or my current landlord comes up with some excuse as to why Im not as worthy to continue living here at the 537 black people who treat this place like a landfill and burn out pit.

it can be simplified down to a single line.

Maybe they'll ban privacy coins, like Monero.
one of its early selling point is that its off limits for governments.
now that it can be taxed and traced its just another speculative financial product.

We drove to the grocery store for neosporin and gauze n tequila n I had to hold her hand to put the bandage on by she didn't want to see her own blood. Then we got drunk n played super Nintendo n went to the beach.
I've got a fucking cat tooth puncture through my fingernail and blood on my shirt and I feel kinda fantastic.
Ugh. God damnit.

Originally posted by the man who put it in my hood I'm not chinese so I already have a massive advantage over every person working in that lab.
there's no proof that stuff does anything and any bullshit you post to say otherwise can easily be disproven by 1000 sources. If that worked people would be doing it, so I am gonna do it right and make a proper vaccine.
the onky reason they dont want to use it is because their patent on it has expired and anyone can manufacture generic version of them without having to pay any cent in royalty fees to anybody. -
