I COPIED THE WEBPAGE TO HERE:

Many of us have friends or family who plan on getting the vaccine. Maybe they truly believe they are in danger. Maybe they think it’s better safe than sorry. Maybe they just want to be able to go to the pub again.

If you know someone who is planning on getting vaccinated against Covid19, ask them these five questions. Make sure they understand exactly what they’re asking for.

1) Did you know that we have NEVER successfully vaccinated against ANY coronavirus?

No successful vaccine against a coronavirus has ever been developed.

Scientists have been trying to develop a SARS and MERS vaccine for years, with nothing to show for it. In fact, some of the failed SARS vaccines actually caused hypersensitivity to the SARS virus. Meaning that vaccinated mice could potentially get the disease more severely than unvaccinated mice.

2) Did you know it usually takes 5-10 years to fully develop a vaccine?

Vaccine development is a slow, laborious process. Usually, from development through testing and finally being approved for public use takes many years. The various vaccines for Covid have all been developed and approved in less than a year.

While the media are quick to offer a TON of “explainer” guides, which cite “foresight, hard work and luck” as the reasons we got a Covid vaccine so quickly “without cutting corners”, they all leave out key information.

Namely, that none of the vaccines have yet been subject to proper trials. Many of them skipped early-stage trials entirely, and the late stage human trials have either not been peer reviewed, have not released their data, will not finish until 2023 or were abandoned after “severe adverse effects”.

3) Did you know that the Covid “vaccine” is based on new technology, which has never been approved for use on humans before?

While traditional vaccines work by exposing the body to a weakened strain of the microorganism responsible for causing the disease, these new Covid vaccines are mRNA vaccines.

mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) vaccines theoretically work by injecting viral mRNA into the body, where it replicates inside your cells and encourages your body to recognise, and make antigens for, the “spike proteins” of the virus. They have been the subject of research since the 1990s, but before 2020 no mRNA vaccine was ever approved for use.

4) Did you know that the pharmaceutical companies can’t be sued if the vaccine hurts or kills someone?

Back in the Spring of 2020 many governments around the world granted vaccine manufacturers immunity to civil liability, either by invoking existing legislation or writing new laws.

The USA’s Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP) grants immunity until at least 2024.

The EU’s product licensing law does the same, and there are reports of confidential liability clauses in the contracts the EU signed with vaccine manufacturers.

The UK went even further, granting permanent legal indemnity to the government, and any employees thereof, for any harm done when a patient is being treated for Covid19 or “suspected Covid19”.

5) Did you know 99.8% of people survive Covid19?

The case-fatality ratio of Sars-Cov-2 infection has been a bone of contention for months, but it is certainly much lower than all the initial models predicted.

It was originally massively inflated, with the WHO using a figure of 3.4%.

Subsequent studies have found it to be much lower, in some cases even lower than 0.1%. A report published in October in the WHO’s own research bulletin finding a CFR of 0.23% “or possibly considerably lower”.

Meaning, even according to the WHO, at least 99.77% of people infected with the virus will survive.

*

Ask your friends these questions. Give them detailed answers.

It is a rushed and untested vaccine, made using unprecedented technology, with no legal recourse should it do you harm, to treat a virus 99.8% of people will survive.

So the question that really matters is: Do you really want, or need, to take that risk?

1 and 2 are pretty poor arguments imo.

*invents lightbulb* Did you know we've never used electricity to provide light before?

*invents digital camera* Did you know it usually takes complicated equipment, specialized chemicals, and hours of professional work to develop a photo?

3 and 4 are fair arguments. 5 just depends on how much you already trust vaccines and whether or not you have a co-morbidity. The original death rate was actually higher, but we've gotten much better at conventional treatment as we've learned more about the virus.

Why do you hate the granny?

My grannies want you guys to shut the fuck up and let us live our lives. They are tougher than you are, apparently.

Everyone I know with elderly parents says their parents want to be able to live their lives.

It's 20-40 year old Karens and basic BLM white chicks (aka young Karens) driving all this.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I agree.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (11 children)

This question is used to justify masks, vaccinations and lockdowns. I've seen your answer tried before, it didn't work. You would need a better answer. Or new friends.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (10 children)

"You need better answers. Or new friends."

Don't you mean new grannies? I am against the masks, dude. If you asked that question sarcastically, then put an /s there. If not, then what the fuck are you on about. "I've seen your answer tried before." What answer? Liberty over safety? When have we ever tried that?

Don't you mean new grannies?

No.

If you asked that question sarcastically, then put an /s there.

No.

If not, then what the fuck are you on about.

In a dispute about vaccination, lockdowns and masks, otherwise reasonable people use the granny as an argument. Your counterargument gets dismissed. Because it can't prove love. Probably.

Liberty over safety? When have we ever tried that?

The paradox of tolerance? If you don't implement a form of fascism with a fancy progressive name, the enemy will implement fascism with its old scary name. The horror!

Dude. What are you on about. My grandmother loves me and I love her, and we both want liberty over safety. We don't want to impose our beliefs on anyone, unlike the pandemic supporters, who wish to taze and lock us up for the sake of "granny" EVEN THOUGH MY GRANNY IS ON MY SIDE.

What. Are. You. On. About.

If you know someone who is planning on getting vaccinated against Covid19, ask them these five questions.

The granny loves your, yet you refuse to wear a mask and receive injections? Which radicalizator has touched you?

What. Are. You. On. About.

Your arguments won't persuade vaxxers.

Are you a pro-masker or not? You are being so confusing, Xihaon.

Are you a pro-masker or not

Only a Sith deals in absolutes.
