This is never going to end

    Everyone one on social media has been saying that this time next year we will all be vaccinated and back to normal.

    The same people were saying the last lockdown would save Christmas
    The same people said back in March we needed three weeks to flatten the curve.

    Let's get things straight.

    We were told 100000 Irish would die and we have had over 2000 deaths which means those predictions are 98% wrong.
    The death rate is 0.03%
    We were told we would witness triple digit deaths per day by April.
    That prediction was wrong too.
    We were told that masks social distancing and hand sanitizer would stop the spread of the virus.
    That was wrong too.
    The vaccine is not being rolled out as a matter of urgency. Instead it is being slowwalked.
    It is not 100% effective and many will not take it.
    Besides officials in England are predicting lockdowns next winter too and Nphet will do the same here.

    This virus is not much more deadly than regular flu. It does not justify mask wearing distancing and eliminating the private lives family lives social lives and working lives of vast numbers of people who are prisoners in their homes.

    The majority of people comply due to fear and propaganda and peer pressure.

    The intention of governments is to never go back to normal and they never will unless people stop complying. There's no sign they ever will.

    Definitely stay away from social media, that's where you got so many things wrong in your post.

    We're already approaching the beginning of the end, when a certain threshold of elderly and immuno suppressed are vaccinated by the summer. After that, it's a welcome farewell to Tony's dour mug as all businesses reopen and life gradually returns to normal.

    Do you know any doctors or nurses in our Irish hospitals that agree with you?

    I know a good few and they are all crying for tougher restrictions. The stories from them are heartbreaking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,054 ✭✭✭D.Q


    What I never understand is what these loopers think the motivation is.

    Like if there was a clear benefit to some shadowy corporation of everyone being locked down I'd understand, but this goes completely against big business.

    Do they think the government want to lock everyone down just because?

    And every government earth, regardless of political beliefs or leanings, all agreed to do it, in complete secret, again, just because? Just to be evil? Tanking their economy's for the craic.

    I'm sure it's very alluring to believe in shadowy new world order types, but at least have some motive for your made up characters.

    They should really do guided tours of Emergency Departments for people who have trouble facing the facts. For a fiver you can watch someone die of Not-COVID, alone in their bedroom.

    No.
    There's going to be a new variant every year restrictions and lockdowns will stay in place.
    This is the new normal.
    Until people say no.
    But people are complying.
    There's no intention for it to ever end.

    What did I get wrong?

    Just a few things come to mind:
    Everyone one on social media has been saying that this time next year we will all be vaccinated and back to normal. Not everyone said this.

    ...
    We were told 100000 Irish would die and we have had over 2000 deaths which means those predictions are 98% wrong. Actually that prediction was 100% incorrect.
    ...
    We were told that masks social distancing and hand sanitizer would stop the spread of the virus. No, the control measure would reduce the spread
    That was wrong too.
    The vaccine is not being rolled out as a matter of urgency. Instead it is being slowwalked.
    It is not 100% effective and many will not take it. What vaccine has 100% efficacy.
    Besides officials in England are predicting lockdowns next winter too and Nphet ....

    Its 2% 113000 cases with 2300 deaths ...

    Indeed this ill informed incoherent waffle is never gonna end

    Its a pity the poster mentioned the flu because it just triggered people and its wrong, few interesting points in there though, i don't think a vaccine will bring a fast end to this myself, its going be long and drawn out. NPHET have so much power now, they are dictating to the government what to do and we all know this government is so weak. Can people really see NPHET not recommending strong restrictions even into 2022.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,608 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    Can this moved to the Conspiracy Theories forum. Or incorporated in to the likely evidence light thread which probably exists there on this seamless global operation between political groups of all different ideologies and motivations.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,097 ✭✭✭Herb Powell


    Literally all of your "rebuttal" are based on strawman ideas, and this is not, nor has it ever been a zero sum game.

    You're talking out your hole.

    Why though? To what end?

    The intention of governments is to never go back to normal and they never will unless people stop complying. There's no sign they ever will.

    Why would a lockdown society be of benefit to any government?

    Governments have been knowingly lying to their people to some degree during the pandemic but it's generally with the intention of giving people a short term goal to motivate them to comply. If Leo took to the podium last March and said "right lads, the next 2 years are going to be a write off but lets just stay at home and see how its going in 2022" then it probably would have led to panic and anarchy.

    Yet another example why people should have to take a test before being allowed anywhere near the Internet.
