This question goes out those who took the 2 jabs? Will you you take it to get back to normality? Or are you sick of the government moving the goalposts constantly?
But that guy has the numbers, do you not trust him? If so why are you quoting him? 2 vaccine deaths for every life saved is a huge claim to be making.
What exactly did the FDA vote against, boosters have been approved for all over the age of 12 and allowed for 3rd doses in the 5-11 age group:
Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update: FDA Takes Multiple Actions to Expand Use of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine | FDA
I'll withhold judgement on that until we see numbers of deaths for last year..
(I do actually know more people adversely affected by it than have had bad covid..)
Why are we giving people boosters if the FDA voted 16-2 against them?..
Do you believe that vaccines have killed 2 people for every person saved from a COVID death? (per the opinion of the person you're posting about).
The lack of enthusiasm for a booster has been long predicted once you come down below 40. Given that the number of the under 30s remain unvaccinated points to there being even lower numbers there. If cases fall away fast that may also slow down the uptake even more. Still reckon 70% on boosters will be a good achievement.
Push for booster in 20-40 age group to take place next week. Lack of booster enthusiasm in over 30s.
So they rejected boosters 16-2?..
Yes, and it’s needed. Especially in my situation where I’m on immunosuppressive drugs. Only crossing my fingers it works for our cohort at all

Do you believe it?
By any chance is this what you are referring to?
If it is, Steve Kirsch, the person who made the claim most certainly is not a medical Doctor.
@PaoloGotti do not post in this thread again
Edit: Lifted
That the vaccine was killing two people for every person it saved..
This is some doctor with about 6 months data talking to the fda at the hearing about the approval of it, not me..
What looked like 2 to 1?
Edit: jokes are for knobs, apparently
Honestly, I think there will be such a revolt (for want of a better word) against further boosters that it won’t be mandatory for travel or hospitality.
Yip, that’s freedom of choice for ya.
But please, stay home if you get sick, and don’t whine when you are denied access or travel based on vaccination status. Its getting old, and no one cares.
3! Is the magic number! That’s where it ends for me.
Nah.
2 is enough. Taking 3 means you'll take 4, 5, 6... and on and on. Fûck that.
It was said in the fda hearings that it looked like it was 2 to 1..
Peer reviewed article published, he tweeted it, article retracted, he deleted tweet. Seems all above board to me.
Humm…k!
“In June, he tweeted that a study showed that for every three lives the vaccines saved, they caused two deaths”
Thats a doozy, has Ireland lost thousands of its citizens over the last year because they got vaccinated?
Well, they can't have you actually listen to what he says..so they just attack him..
It's sad how so many just blindly accept it..
I would definitely listen far more to a Dr. of Medieval Italian Literature about medical advice re: pandemic than a medical dr 🙄
You will. Once you’re on the train there’s no stopping half way
I work with someone with a physics PhD who uses Dr professionally but (a) she wouldn't start lecturing people on medical matters she's not qualified in (b) if she did, she would drop the Dr to avoid confusion.
John Campbell is a hokey spoofer.
Add in MeHole today saying ye’ll need to be boostered to go to pubs etc.
Fully vaxxed is the new unvaxxed.
Having worked in healthcare in the US, Dr is the preferred moniker used by both medical doctors and patients. MD tends to follow the name, not proceed it, of course there will be exceptions. In relation to NASA, I doubt there is any confusion over the Dr titles used considering the setting, but I very much doubt physicists would use their title to lend weight to a discussion on healthcare.
Unfortunately it's actually medical doctors (or society) that are miss using the term Doctor or Dr, although this YouTube could be conveniently benefiting from this longstanding miss understanding, in do not know.
I work in the science, engineering industry and we have plenty of Doctors wondering about the place that use their qualification title in most official commications etc.
My first manager in Germany was Dr. Rainer ........., And we always addressed him by this title.
Imagine the going into NASA's offices and giving out to them all for using their Dr titles! (Fair enough, they're not releasing videos on COVID recommendations)
I think in the US the term MD is more common for a medical doctor, maybe it's one thing we should actually carry over from the us.
For the most part I agree, the part I would dispute is the depth of understanding comparison made between a Nurse and a Doctor. It is the reason why though nurses may have a wealth of knowledge about medical matters, they are not permitted to pass themselves off as medical Doctors, nor to prescribe treatments nor medications under licence.
As a regurgitator/explainer of information, Dr Campbell has his place, but his credentials do not make him an authority on the information he presents. I do think he does a public service, my earlier posts were in response to Eddie posting “Look at his credentials” as if they added gravitas to his video casts, they really don’t.
He was very good early in the pandemic at distilling the myriad information circulating into a videocast / podcast that lay people could understand. I guess with his academic / medical / teaching background he was good at explaining the tons of 'science' being thrown at us.
And while he is not a medical doctor I doubt if eg a typical retired doctor would have any deeper understanding than he does. I think he went down a rabbit hole with Ivermectin but thats a different thread and some medical doctors went along with him.
Havent watched him for long while now - would be curious what his take on boosters is given he has hundreds of millions of youtube views.
