    The flu vaccine, but that is supposedly because a strain starts
    going around that was not accounted for when the vaccine was
    formulated.

    The flu vaccine is an actual vaccine. But the flu is a virus and we can't create a general vaccine against a virus (too much variation, I assume).

    I rarely hear people call it a "flu vaccine" though. I pretty much always hear people say "flu shot". Is it really a vaccine?

    And there have been medications that have been on the market for
    decades that have proven to beb effective against COVID.

    Not sure about that. Are you referring to what Trump took? I
    haven't heard of these being FDA approved for that use.

    To use the example of Ivermectin. Despite the Propaganda Ministry push, it is not a "horse dewormer" (although it's used in that product). Ivermectin

    There is a horse dose of Ivermectin that's not for use in humans, then there is the 2015 Nobel winner human doseage that is for Humans and has been and is still being tested as a treatment theraputic against covid.

    You have to remember that the power hungry Elites don't want COVID to go away. Fear makes it easy to control the sheeple.

    Never let a good crisis go to waste, that's the leftist's slogan.

    the guy that gave me the virus had the vaccine. he was sicker than i was.
    why would the potential pain and suffering be far less? have you ever heard o
    a vaccine where people still get sick? i never have.

    The flu vaccine, but that is supposedly because a strain starts going around that was not accounted for when the vaccine was formulated.


    oh so you bring up another bullshit vaccine?

    Well, that is a "vaccine" we've both heard of where people still get sick.

    I don't keep a scorecard to know which ones are not BS. :) Polio, I guess is one.

    COVID is also a virus so, assuming that they went through the same process
    to create one like the flu vaccine, they could still miss a variation,
    which means it also would never be 100%.

    The Encyclopedia Britannica hasn't been 'converged' yet. So that still contains the correct definition of "vaccine": https://www.britannica.com/science/vaccine

    SHHHH! Don't tell anyone! :)

    So each year, they try to figure out what flu variant will go around, then the
    cultivate that flu variant in eggs (hence the warning about egg alergies when you get your flu shot) then make teh vaccine out of that.

    Interesting. I knew that egg played into it somewhere. IIRC, they also
    asked if I was allergic to eggs before giving me "the jabs."

    They basically inject you with the weakened or dead flu viruses. So they actually give you the flu, and you will show flu symptoms for a bit.

    Yes, sometimes I feel it more than others.

    My horses hate invermectin. I usually give them an Invermectin+Praziquantel and they despise it. It
    is worse nowadays since my local vet store does not carry the fruit flavored ones.

    The mother of one of my mares got an abortion because they gave her a load of that stuff while
    pregnant. I think the box said very clearly not to give the thing to a pregnant mare, and this
    redneck did it. I feel like punching this guy's head off each time I see him (for this and other
    things).

    But yeah it kills parasytes very effectively (which is the point) and allows my horses to grow big
    and strong and to hug me brutally, so I suppose it is not _that_ bad.

    "Vaccine" is not a word that people use alot. So "shot" probably comes to mind quicker for most people.

    But, yes. By the definition of "vaccine" (pre-Sept. 2021):
    "vaccine, suspension of weakened, killed, or fragmented microorganisms or toxins or of antibodies or lymphocytes that is administered primarily to prevent disease.

    A vaccine can confer active immunity against a specific harmful agent by stimulating the immune system to attack the agent." https://www.britannica.com/science/vaccine

    The flu vaccine is made from weakened, or killed viruses and it will confer active immunity to that particular strain of the flu. But it won't help you against other strains. Which is why they have to come up with a new one every year and why it's sometimes hit or miss.

    Right. But the COVID not-vaccine isn't like the flu shot. The research into the RNA "vaccines" has been complete failure so far. But now they want us to believe that they got it right this time. Right....

    Interesting. I knew that egg played into it somewhere. IIRC, they
    also asked if I was allergic to eggs before giving me "the jabs."

    I think the person was used to giving flu shots and just did it on autopilot. They didn't use eggs for the not-vaccine. Only aborted fetal issue.

    Yes, sometimes I feel it more than others.

    I used to get the flu shot every year. Some years it was nothing. Other years I would get "sick" for a bit (for me, that's just low energy for about 6 hours).I would guess it depends on the strain of the flu that year.

    There are no COVID vaccines, regardless of what the Propaganda Ministry says.

    The not-vaccine that they are calling a "vaccine" isn't a vaccine. It's a theraputic and it is untested and unproven (because that takes years of studies to do).

    However, they are a few therapies and drugs on the market today that are tested and proven against COVID. The the Propaganda Minsitry and the Leftie Elites are doing their best to block their use.

    To use the example of Ivermectin. Despite the Propaganda Ministry push, it is not a "horse dewormer" (although it's used in that product). Ivermectin is a nobel winning drug that was created a long time ago. We know how it works and we know what side effects it has. It's been
    proven safe. And a state in India (which has a very dense population,
    at least as large as the U.S.) has been declared COVID-free due to its use.

    That's up to you. To be honest, I barely even think about COVID. I got the vaccines and it seems to be a relative non-issue here in British Columbia, where we have a 90% vaccination rate. I show my vaccine passport at the
    movies and restaraunts. No big deal. Most of this conversation seems to be
    a deep south / "muh freedums" thing from my perspective.

    Kind of the opposite happened here in my city with a restaurant. There was a list of restaurants floating around on Facebook that were not checking for vaccination status as required by the Province.

    Staff of one of them grew concerned and quite a few of them quit, causing the establishment to close down temporarily. They then because subject to a Ministry of Labour investigation and now that restaurant is up for sale:

    The problem comes when they declare that you need a COVID passport for applying for a job or things like that. At that point you are fucked up unless you comply, there is massive civil disobedience, or migrate out of the country.

    I don't think the vaccines or the virus are a problem as much as the fact these opression mechanisms are falling back in place and a whole lot of the population is not even complaining, or are even cheering all through the process.

    Setting aside that I think forcing somebody to put biological agents inside his body is a flagrant violation of his rights, once you have a Compliance Passport working you can force people to do ANYTHING under the threat of marking them as outcasts.

    I think the implementation of Compliance Passports in a country is reason enough and sufficient to leave said country.

    Kind of the opposite happened here in my city with a restaurant. There was list of restaurants floating around on Facebook that were not checking for vaccination status as required by the Province.


    My experience is these sorts of things have different outcomes depending on whether enough people cares either way.

    There are around 200k enforzable laws in Spain (somebody actually published the number). Nobody knows them all. Chances are any random store you pick on the street is breaking enough of them to grant its legal obliteration, so if you know what you are looking for, you can report nearly anybody to the authorities.

    The only reason why society does not implode is that nobody cares that your store doesn't have your emergency lights updated to the current year's standard, nobody checks the composition of the insulation in your power wires, and so on.

    I could put a serious dent in my village's economy by suing every single shepherd for the fact none of their shepherd dogs are registered and chipped. In fact, it seems the Spanish way of screwing your neighbour over when you are angry with him is reporting any such small transgression to the authorities. The drawback is that then they get to sue you back for the thing you least expect and then you get to burn too.

    So well, if enough people didn't care about the Compliance Passports then operating a bar which does not give a damn for them would be just like operating a bar in which the anti-panic lights are a year too old. Nobody would care.

    IMO a society in which a bar gets sued an investigated because harmless transgressions such as taking Compliance Passports lightly is like a Spanish Inquisitorial hellhole in which you cannot live your life alone because snitches will sell you to Torquemada.

    There are enough countries in the world to make some numbers and then extrapolate.

    A number of countries have cut short their vaccination campaigns because their governments considered there was lack of acceptance among the population or lack of evidence things were actually improving.

    Israel has a extremely high vaccination rate and a bunch of people is getting their 3rd dose.

    That is two extremes right there that can be used for analysis.

    Then you have countries such as Italy or Spain which set severe lockdowns (no people allowed in the streets) which you can compare to places which enforced less severe lockdowns or no lockdowns at all.

    That is another two extremes you can use for analysis.

    The only problem with the plan is that some of the official numbers are rigged. For example, it is said that Spain reported less COVID deaths and cases than we actually got during the first year, to the point a number of international agents declared openly that our statistics were not worth the paper they were written on.

    If it gets to where we need passports to do anything like go to a
    restrau see a movie etc.. I will boycott all those things.
    Hit the tyrants in the pocket book and eventually they will wake up
    and f against this tyrantical Dictator Buck Fiden.
    I have my shots but I will not be tied to a stupid covid passport.

    Kind of the opposite happened here in my city with a restaurant. There was a list of restaurants floating around on Facebook that were not checking for vaccination status as required by the Province.

    Staff of one of them grew concerned and quite a few of them quit, causing the establishment to close down temporarily. They then because subject to a Ministry of Labour investigation and now that restaurant is up for sale:

    That's just messed up.
    Lucky for me I live in a Red state with a Red Legislature.

    The problem comes when they declare that you need a COVID passport for applying for a job or things like that. At that point you are fucked up unless you comply, there is massive civil disobedience, or migrate out of the country.

    Luckily I live in a red state, we don't even have mask mandates other than at hospitals and Dr. Offices.

    Was that to make Spain appear less exposed to covid? Or, was it

    Your country should have provided the health system with cash
    incentives to report any death as covid as done here. Then,
    "proper" paperwork would have certainly been maintained for
    that purpose! <G>


    [...] to the point a number of international agents

    As it turns out, the opposite scale of stats and higher numbers
    are just as suspect.

    that has happened where they wont let you in if you dont have a mask, or have jacked up mask rules.

    they make snarky signs and say things like 'if you don't like this, we don't want you as a customer'

    people stop going there and the businesses shut down.

    Most likely, it was done that way to prevent mass panic. If you are a conspiracy theorist you could also formulate the hypothesis that the government also wanted to make it look like they were more efficient than they actually were.

    I personally think our government here acted like a beheaded chicken, running up and down at random without a clear plan.

    people say people get sick with the flu after the flu shot because they targett
    d the wrong flu. they never said they were breakthrough cases.

    That is true. They don't often mention that people catch COVID after the
    shot because they didn't target the right variation.

    Yes, sometimes I feel it more than others.

    I used to get the flu shot every year. Some years it was nothing. Other year
    I would get "sick" for a bit (for me, that's just low energy for about 6 hours).I would guess it depends on the strain of the flu that year.

    Same here. Sometimes it was nothing, sometimes just wanted to take a nap. Never lasted into the next day.
