    But what you claim things say and what they actually say don't match up. Like when you were previously misrepresenting the Pfizer statement.

    That's most likely what's happening here.

    I don't know where to begin with is. There are so many factors that affect how an individual or race or ethnicity will react to an infection it would be impossible to account for them all. The Australasian region has low infection rates because of prior immunity, seasonal factors, amount of sunshine, diet and lifestyle to name a few. A milder or more deadly variant could affect 2 neighbors very differently.

    In almost all cases an airborne virus will mutate to be milder. Every new variant of COVID has so far proven to be so because 99% of the time that is what happens and I am quite sure will continue to happen

    One caveat is that we have never vaccinated so many in the middle of a pandemic for a novel airborne virus before. It is completely new territory.

    It could cause the virus to mutate to be more lethal. Time will tell.

    I never misrepresented the Pfizer statement. I provided a link and quoted from it. You constantly post in bad faith and twist, troll and derail because you can't debate any other way.

    I have asked you multiple times about the necessity for vaccinating children and you never answered. Choosing instead to try and lead me down dead ends arguing petty little points of no consequence.

    When you are asked a question you immediately make up a dumb question and then say "why should I answer yours if you don't answer mine".

    This is your last opportunity to answer the question on necessity for young children.

    A simple yes or no. Should they be given the COVID jab or not.

    If I don't get a straight answer I'm putting you on ignore.

    My issue is the coercion, forcing and down right bullying people into taking them that never needed them.

    Explain your liar statement because if it's the same as last night I hope the honorable mod hands you back your ass in a sling. The warning was quite clear.

    Anyway today I'm hopeful it's looking good for everyone on both sides of the barbed wire.

    It's not peer reviewed yet but if correct the futures bright.

    Yes like everyone else I followed the progress of vaxx development hoping for a great vaccine. It was fairly obvious from day 1 of vaccine roll out that things were not going quite as expected. The data coming out of Israel was not great in the early stages and never really improved. Then the transition from vaxxing the vulnerable and elderly to the borderline mandatory vaxx of everyone including kids changed the narrative.

    Did the definition of the word voluntary change recently and nobody told the rest of us?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,195 ✭✭✭✭drunkmonkey


    Are you trying to wind up those right wing conspiracy theorist, granny killing, fossil fuel burning, Dutch Farmer supporting anti vaxxers,

    Memory hole'n what happened here on the Island by suggesting it was Voluntary just isn't going to fly.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,442 ✭✭✭bad2thebone


    Am voluntary discrimination and medical apartheid maybe, other than that it was probably obfuscated voluntary.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,195 ✭✭✭✭drunkmonkey


    Hey remember that one time when it looked like you needed a jab for electric picnic and they all got jabbed and there was no ep in the end.

    That's the 3rd of September, the Monday after the picnic weekend that never was.

    Yes, you did misrepresent the Pfizer statement. I showed you how you were misrepresenting them. You ignored those points.

    It's not "petty" to show that your arguments and points and fundamentally based on such misrepresentations and dishonestys. It shows the giant flaws in your position.


    And again, I have addressed you question many times. I have explained how it's a silly emotive tactic you're trying to use to frame people who disagree with you as somehow wanting to endanger children or not caring. You know this is what you're doing.

    And yes, you've constantly dodged questions and points put to you every time you're asked. It's the standard tactic of conspiracy theorists.


    But to answer your question directly, so you know how it looks when some one does so.

    Yes, children over 6 months should be given the vaccine. I agree with the CDC recommendation:

    You lot have constantly failed to show any rational reason to disagree with this recommendation. And all of your arguments rely on fear, ignorance and dishonesty.

    I suspect you will still be ignoring me though.

    Lol, the CDC. After all you've been presented with.

    Glad you finally said you support it from 6mts and up. We've shown the data is junk by using Pfizer's own findings, kids build good natural immunity with a 0.00% statical risk of adverse outcomes.

    They don't need it. The benefits don't out way the safety risks.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 547 ✭✭✭shillyshilly


    great, thanks for confirming you would prefer an echo chamber...

    If you have an issue with my responses, please feel free to respond to any of my numerous analysis of evidence/papers presented in support of vaccines being unsafe on a whole.... your friends are having a great time dodging facts in regards to many challenges in what they present... if this comes across as me being biased... it may do, because my queries go unanswered in alot of cases, which probably pitches me in a certain light...

    again, feel free to respond to these challenges to change my mind... but for now, I'm following research papers.

    edit: when I say research papers...I mean University library searches, or at worst.. google scholar.... it's actually not that hard

    no problem if you don't know where to begin. the basics seems be lost on a number of people in this thread....

    Junior cert science is a great start, leaving cert biology will take you well above the average in here... but seeing as you have a new theory that all viruses will automatically mutate into a less severe version to humans ... I'm not gonna lie, this ground breaking discovery by yourself, with no prior evidence.... it might just win the nobel prize...

    go for it man... this sort of stuff is unheard of

    Yes. The CDC after you guys have been completely and utterly dishonest about everything you've claimed. After all the twitter dumps and debunked false claims.

    You're claiming Pfizer is saying one thing, but as we've seen, you guys always misrepresent what you read. (Or don't actually read as the case maybe.)

    Why would I trust you guys over the CDC?

    Why do you believe the CDC is lying?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 547 ✭✭✭shillyshilly


    hey, remember those numerous times drunkmonkey was caught out lying, then dodged it, then played a pity card when the noise about dodging got too loud.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,146 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    I understand the individual words that you have both used, could you please rearrange them into a coherent sentence for us though as whatever it is you are trying to say isn't at all obvious.


    I guess you are trying to claim that vaccination was mandatory and forced on people? If that was the case then how come there are unvaccinated people who chose not to take up the offer for whatever reasons?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,218 ✭✭✭snowcat


    And the bigger concern is why they are not dead from Covid or clogging up the ICU's. There should be a concerted well funded media appeal to force them to get vaxxed for the Covid to save our hospitals.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,507 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    It has been explained many times about covid mutating. Do you need it explained once more in the hope that it sinks in?


    No one was forced or coerced to get the vaccine. Thank you for confirming that with your post.

    We were told the vaccine could be tweaked within days to cope with variants. Why has that not happened. Has that sunk in yet?

    Could be anything to do with the fact that their is way more profit to be made from an existing vaccine that performs poorly regarding transmission and needs to be taken multiple times? Or develop a new one at cost that works really well but kills their ongoing revenue stream. Pharma companies exist to make profit. That is their number 1 aim. Customers not taking drugs does not generate profit.

    Wow. Back to basics. The vaccines are still effective against current variants, and the variants have been getting weaker. New versions have not been required yet.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,146 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    What has new versions of vaccines got to do with the claim that people were forced to take vaccines, when they absolutely were not forced.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,507 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    Ran out of road with the last argument and now taking a wild diversion. However, changing the point to how new versions have not been of the vaccine reinforces how good the existing vaccines are.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,218 ✭✭✭snowcat


    Not forced just your freedom limited if you did not comply. No flights, no bars, no gym veiled threats of no healthcare. We were not far short of badging people with their status. Would remind you of unsavoury antics in Nazi Germany not so long ago.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,507 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    Godwin strikes again. All your arguments are null and void. It appears that you are anti vaccine just to be a contrarian. You haven’t provided any compelling arguments why vaccines are unsafe. You’ve flipped the conversation multiple times in your last few posts alone. It’s as if you work off a list of arguments and use a random number generator to see what you can fling and if it will stick.

    In your edited post you added that pharmaceutical companies exist to make a profit. If they made a dangerous vaccine, then they wouldn’t be making profits. If the vaccine killed so many people as your co-antivaxxers claim, then they wouldn’t make a profit of them in future. It’s in pharmaceutical companies interest to keep people alive as long as possible because it increases the chances that they will require medication and other treatments for other ailments as they age. It’s very simple logic. Dead people don’t make pharmaceutical companies money.

    Sure, because virology is taught in national schools.

    I prefer to listen to an expert that has spent his whole career in virology

    His credentials are at the end of the site. Be sure to scroll all the way down.

    Now I'll wait for the inevitable ridicule of a true expert by some randomer on boards.



  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,715 ✭✭✭hometruths


    It is pretty amazing that there are some people who claim nobody was coerced to get the vaccine.

    Extraordinary stuff.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,507 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    I know people that are vaccinated and others that are not. Neither have claimed that they were coerced to do one thing of the other. They had freedom of choice. Nothing amazing about it, just a democratic society recognising everyone including the extreme contrarian groups and their right to choose. Sure even the Russian Z brigade was allowed their protests against the wishes of the majority.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 594 ✭✭✭Fr0g


    Apart from the fact that their rights were restricted until they did what they were told. Even then when when they did comply it made no difference just as I predicted it wouldn't.

    The vast majority under 65 pretty much took it for no benefit. It wasn't safe it wasn't effective it didn't stop the disease, it didn't stop you getting infected, it didn't stop you spreading it. The incidence of disease increased the more we vaccinated.

    Most people have experienced it personally by now and realise it wasn't a death sentence, far from. 50% of PCR+ had no symptoms and didn't even know they had it. It will be very difficult to frighten or coerce them into continuing to take jab after jab.

    Most of the highly vaccinated countries can't even give them away now. Ireland included.

    Looks like you boys and girls are the only ones left behind the curve.

    You're talking in riddles now, and trying to suggest I'm not posting in a way in which you want me or need me to post.

    That method doesn't really work on me, it's a common thing here....

    Therefore you're on my ignore list lol

    Being a moderator and all you should know better than to be trying to undermine someone like you did there....

    Ignore
