Great point by #katiehopkins - if you have had a #vaccine in the #uk and you can still catch and spread #covid - what is the point in having a #vaccination #passport ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5j_SOEO.. It's simply another method to force people to have the vaccine, exactly the wrong approach. Bare in mind also, #boris is stuck between a rock and hard place. He signed the UK up to buy so many vaccines and if he fails to use them, he'll be in bigger trouble than he already is. He has no choice...
Looks like #google will #require #vaccination evidence to work in the #office https://blog.google/inside-google/compan.. So much for "my body, my choice". I don't suppose many people at Google will push back against getting a #vaccine - but the fact there is no choice to begin with is significant.
Worth #signing this #petition https://www.lotuseaters.com/over-100-000.. It is to prevent the #uk #government from discriminating against people who refuse to get the #covid #vaccine ... #sign here: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions..
Interesting point addressed by #aardvark - whilst most of the #covid #vaccine hysteria is exactly that, hysteria, there is a good question surrounding the risks to #young people: https://aardvark.co.nz/daily/2021/0719.s.. If you are less than 18, your #risk of dying from the vaccine may be *higher* than the risk of dying from COVID itself. It's really not clear at all...
And this is *exactly* what people were concerned about: https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/frenc.. #covid #vaccine #passports are about to become a requirement in #france - giving a #fine for people entering public spaces without one. Imagine being fined in your own Country for not having a vaccine. Absolutely #authoritarian and will lead to people refusing to be #vaccinated ...
I'm torn on this: https://www.axios.com/republicans-corona.. I don't believe we can force people to take #vaccines - and implementing #vaccinepassports is just force by other means. As long as we reach #heardimmunity - it shouldn't matter anyway. And this does not even consider potential #fertility issues many #covid #vaccine takers are reporting... Watch this space!
Seems like #mrna is going to be the #vaccine technology of the future: https://directorsblog.nih.gov/2021/07/13.. On top of the ability to be able to more quickly adapt it to new #strains of #covid - it also seems to persist for longer in the #immunesystem too.
#vaccination becomes even more #cult like, with the #russian #orthodox #church declaring people who refuse the #covid #vaccine as #sinners https://www.lotuseaters.com/russian-orth.. Says everything...
#merkel of #germany is looking to #ban the #uk from the entire of the #eu - despite the UK having one of the highest #vaccine rates in the world: https://www.lotuseaters.com/merkel-to-at.. I'm sure she will be saying the same thing after the next wave in Germany? I remember the last time Germany banned the British from the EU, it didn't end so well for the Germans. As #hitler discovered - you can't fight a war on all fronts...
#linus giving some good #vaccine advice: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/6/10/957 People should generally be getting vaccines unless they have a very good reason not to. Despite some of my concerns, I still believe it is better to get one than not to.
Another potential side effect to the #mrna #vaccine against #covid https://www.reuters.com/world/us/cdc-hea.. Apparently it could be causing #heart inflammation. I'm personally in no rush to get vaccinated until I need to be - let somebody else be a lab rat whilst they iron out the issues.
#boris could be about to go back on his word about lifting #covid #lockdowns https://www.lotuseaters.com/fairly-grim-.. Apparently some #modelling shows a few extra weeks are needed to allow the #vaccine to be effective.
