              @Clear: So that clear things up now. Since vaccine cant and dont stop you getting virus and also spreading, you must not be in favor of mandating vaccines? Right?

              @Clear:

              Are you one of the people with the false belief that the vaccine means you can't get COVID?

              LOL, as if the general attitude of getting the vaccine wasn't to stop the spread, thinking of the community, and saving grandma. Maybe all the politicians and health experts with all their restrictions on the unvaccinated missed the memo.

              I did surprisingly well not to catch it until several months ago.

              Lol, maybe everyone else who did catch it in those settings just didn't wear all their ppe properly?

              I'm immunocompromised that's why I was lucky enough to get molnupiravir. That stuff works amazingly well.

              Yea, my elderly relative(with like 4 comorbidities) was prescribed that too. He felt like absolute crap for the first few days that he got covid, but was back to 100% within 3 days of finishing his molnupiravir prescription.

      You isolate, like people should be doing when they know they have the flu. I used to work at a dominos and the hero store manager came in dripping with flu ones and knocked out half the staff. The store owner wanted him to come in though, because the manager lived for his work and things get done when he is around. But when he had the flu he was too sick to do anything except make other people sick, the dude was pale and dripping with sweat, he could barely stand.

        Why do you need a test though? Can't you tell if you have flu or cold or whatever by how you feel? like it used to be for decades?And then you call in sick and stay home?

        • AustriaBargain on 29/08/2022 - 23:30

          I feel like if the manager did have a test and took it and it was positive, then the owner would have felt obliged to tell him to stay home. Flu costs billions every year so maybe there should be a test and a social norm that says you must isolate if you have the flu. I mean there is that norm already, but maybe it would be observed more often.

        • Eeples on 30/08/2022 - 17:48

          You are saying for the last few decades you have been isolating when you got a cold?

        What a ridiculous website. Do you know who Dr Michael Yeadon is? Where did he spend a couple of decades? Which company? Pfizer.

        What about the others? Do you know their credentials? They all face censorship and defamation for telling the public what is really happening with these depop shots, while the non-thinking public just accept what they hear from those with political affiliations and profit motives.

        You are free to actually listen to what data they present and debate them on specific points, but you don't want to do that, do you?

          A Telegram account under his name has promoted the unfounded claim that the vaccines cause recipients to become magnetic.

          Have you seen any evidence of magnetic people?

          You are free to actually listen to what data they present and debate them on specific points, but you don't want to do that, do you?

          I would need more reputable sources(including smaller independent sites) or have more consensus among experts in the area before I took a look. Here's a quick fact check on some of his claims: https://www.reddit.com/r/CoronavirusUK/comments/jguhz5/mike_… .

          There is a low chance that he is correct and ignored by the MSM, but based on some of his claims and the views of the website he appears on this is infinitesimally small.

          • lowgo on 29/08/2022 - 22:48

            @ihfree: Take your time. Go through his interview. You don't need to read or hear anything that anyone else has said about any truth-speaker, except listen to what they themselves have said, and the data they are looking at and the patients they are seeing.

          If commonality makes you feel comfortable, just know that the truth is being censored all over the internet. You know it is, right? USAwatchdog used to have YouTube channel. As did SGTreport. Why is it being censored? Websites attacked too. Why can't we be allowed open discourse on popular platforms?

          The censored are the very truth-tellers we need to be hearing and promoting if we actually believe in taking care of each other in this age of universal deceit.

          A better question is how would he go in a debate against someone who is respected in the field

          What makes you think he is disrespected? Is it the defamation all over the internet to those who happen to speak the truth? Or is it actually something you heard him say or do?

          • ihfree on 30/08/2022 - 00:30

            @lowgo: Commonality isn't the issue.

            There's no denying there are issues with current media, relationships with advertisers which are often big pharma. The thing with people like Yeadon is that he makes claims which can't be backed and are disproven. From a skim read of articles on him - colleagues think he has changed and interviewers are not impressed with him.

            He didn't deny the whole magnetism thing. Do you really think a vaccine could make a person magnetic?

        And if you think my figure is wrong, im using a conservative 7 / 1000 mortality rate (which is common in the western world, i expect less fortunate countries have a higher rate).

        If you are scared, go get vaccinated and boosted.

          An added 6.5 million dead in addition to your number. That alone is a pretty significant number even with measures that most of the sane population took to curb the spread of the virus. You're not doing a good job at making any decent point here.

        Is that including all the people already morbidly ill, already in hospital, that got Covid in hospital and died from their existing condition, yet still get a tick in the Covid box as well?

        There has been some magic done with numbers if you scratch under the surface, but one thing we know for sure is that the total numbers of deaths is a rounding error. Certainly not worth destroying the global economy for, nor the future impact it will have on half a generation of kids that will live with the effects of development disruptions due to lock-downs and forced mask wearing.

    Pretty sickening to read a lot of the comments here. Do people actually think Covid doesn't exist and isn't dangerous? I know a handful of people who got it, were in pain and recovered in a week or two but I also know people who have permanent heart damage because of it, young, heathy and active people. Just because you were one of the lucky ones and got off easy doesn't mean it's not real or that it's over. The biggest point of reflection during this pandemic is the freak "non believers" up rising. Honestly I don't want to share a planet with them. They are out there and will only cause issues. What a strange world we live in now.

      Do people actually think Covid doesn't exist and isn't dangerous?

      Do people actually think it's that dangerous? Then they would stay home, wear three masks, get all the vaccine shots they can(which they don't even recommended for those under 50 to get a 2nd booster)

      I think Covid is not much worse than the Flu and the draconian measures put in place to try and control the uncontrollable have and will cause far more damage long term.
      The government admitted that these measures had no cost benefit analysis done on them and were not based on any science but rather 'public perception'.

      The biggest point of reflection during this pandemic is the freak "non believers" up rising.

      You read too much fake news. I worked for the Health Dept during the peak authoritarianism period and it had very little to do with science and almost everything to do with politics. An example is NSW Health counting those already in hospital without Covid, that caught Covid in hospital, as being part of increased Covid hospitalisations. I can't recall the exact number but it was significant, like at least 1/2 of all hospitalisations were people already in hospital that were conveniently added to the numbers to make it look as bad as possible.

      The uprising of which you speak is more people becoming aware of theses types of charade. If YOU want to be afraid and live in fear then YOU are free to do that. But don't force ME to play your silly games.

    Just another awful response from the government, since nobody looks at the science of new reports coming out. Covid is politicized these days.
    How about giving away N95 masks or hand sanitizers to the people that are entitled here (most vulnerable), prevention is always better!
    And research shows that a N95 mask is at least 70-80 effective at preventing infection.

    Instead waste tax payers money that doesn't actually help people much in these tests.

    If you're in WA, anyone can get free RATs from the office of your local state MP. I went into mine a few weeks ago and asked for 5 tests and they gave me 25!

    • franco cozzo on 04/09/2022 - 04:21

      yay! now you can test all your neighbours too!

    So most of us got vaccinated so whats the point in testing.

    The science works right?!??!?!??!

    Or was it all a complete lie.

      What's the point of testing in general? Forget the liver function tests, the FBC and so forth.

      • TheMindsetTraveller on 30/08/2022 - 12:02

        There is no treatment for covid, so u rely purely on your own body and the vaccine.

        Other testing? At least there is direct solutions in many of those diagnosis that help. Not with covid.

          I think you mean to say there is no cure for covid. There's certainly ways to treat covid like Sotrovimab and molnupiravir.

          There's plenty of other tests that must be done for things that have no cure. Take my cancer for example. My CgA levels are always elevated in tests, but there's no cure. Only treatment.

          So RATs have their purpose. They certainly help confirm if people have covid and can prevent the spread to more vulnerable people. Like nursing homes for example.

            Huh. You have cancer

          "There is no treatment for covid, so u rely purely on your own body and the vaccine."

          there are two very effective oral anti-virals, but they're not available to everyone, because they cost like a 1000 dollars per dose. Thank you Big Pharma!
          only giving them to the most vulnerable.

      its a pandemic of the unavccinated….
      you will never be fully vaccinated….
      the vaccines are safe & effective…
      myocarditis from covid is worse than myocarditis from the vaccines….

  • haemolysis on 31/08/2022 - 00:50

    I find it bizarre how people are trying to compare covid to the flu… and so therefore we shouldn’t do anything?

    Like… that’s bad. You do realise the flu is BAD?

    Influenza is a serious, deadly disease. You shouldn’t be allowed to leave home with suspected influenza.

        How is this objectionable… why you want to go around infecting people? Do a Telehealth if you need and rest and recover like a normal person.

        People going out and about with the flu are the worst people. Society does not appreciate you.
