    • ~10% control group
      ~90% experimental group

      I'm impressed actually, i thought it would be more like 2:98.

    • +3

      The 4+ group (~36%) are the same people that take the flu shot every year. They either have zero agency like the poor elderly or will take anything that telly would even hint at and then would come back for more.
      The 1-3 group (~52%) were the main target of the propaganda machine and the mandates. Most of them would have ignored the clotshot otherwise.
      The zero group is a completely lost cause for the government, zero trust to anything the government would say or do.

      • +3

        The zero group is a completely lost cause for the government, zero trust to anything the government would say or do.

        Another way of looking at it is that the government knows who these people are (especially now in this increasingly technological age) & can adjust plans accordingly.

            @mrdean: idk if its in my head but i feel like sometimes my heart hurts for a few seconds, again it could be because of gym (chest workout doing flys with dumbells) i went to the doctor and he said nothing wrong, i did blood test and the CGI thing he said all ok, i went to a second doctor who also said its from gym. also i like to point out i got covid 2 months after the second shot. it was like a normal flu with the added bonus of not being able to smell, really it was not bad at all, so idk if the vaccine played its part or it just wasn't that bad to begin with. i guess ill never know, i still am against an unproven vaccine and i regret getting it (because it doesn't work) and if there was a way to not get it i would have went that route

            • @Roe Jogan:

              so idk if the vaccine played its part or it just wasn't that bad to begin with. i guess ill never know

              Yes, there's no real way to know. Those that believe in the jabs will likely say your illness was lessened by getting the jab, whereas you may have never got the illness (or noticed it) if you didn't get the jab, or you may have got it worse. Or you may have gotten the illness because of the jab.

              All the best,

    All of them because getting vaccinated is important especially ones from Russia as they are proven to have no negative sidпобочные эффекты. Благодаря России у нас есть надежная вакцина против вируса

      There was one called Covax-19, created here by Petrovsky, but he wasn't able to get it through the TGA. It is available in Iran only.

          That's is precisely the antithesis of "cooker" thinking, as you put it.

    Not an anti-vaxxer, my gut said no, so for once I listened.. self employed and managed to work through until the restrictions were lifted, avoiding the vaccines.

    I am pro-privacy however, and any establishment that enforced sign in/vax cert did not receive any business from me ;)

    • Doesn't trust medical community, yet trusts Google. Okay.

      • Only antivaxxers are pro privacy ,apparently.

          Let me correct you…it’s not ‘antivaxxers’. That’s a childish term. We’re simply against ‘mandating’ an experimental vax. Vast majority of us actually have all the necessary vax. Get it?

          Also, we’re not all pro privacy, although I don’t know why you’d have a problem with that.

      • +3

        Not google. Just common sense. You do realize there’s a large number in the medical community that do NOT support the vax

      What does that have to do with needing to mandate an untested vax that doesn’t actually prevent the spread?

      Oh hey, what other medicine won the nobel prize?

      https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34466270/
      And we saw how the propagandists treated that when it got in the way of their agenda.

      So why are the shysters in your link 'pro-science' but other equally awarded (and proven safe and effective)products anti science?
      Can you explain that for us?

      Not that I put any stock in the Nobel prize alone due to some of the laughable 'winners' who have received it.

      2009: Barack Obama, Nobel Peace Prize, went on to bomb many many innocents in the Middle East.
      2012: The European Union, Nobel Peace Prize. (Lols)
      1973: Henry Kissinger, Nobel Peace Prize
      1949: António Egas Moniz, Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine (The Portuguese neurologist and brain surgeon was awarded the prize for devising the lobotomy – a procedure where part of the brain is cut away. The medical procedure was designed to treat mental disorders, but has since come into disrepute and has been all but abandoned.)
      1918: Fritz Haber, Nobel Prize in Chemistry (Fritz Haber was awarded his prize for inventing the Haber-Bosch process, which is a way of producing ammonia on a large scale. But Haber is also well-known helping to develop chlorine gas as a chemical weapon during World War I and Haber defended the use of gas warfare during his lifetime.)

      Hopefully you get the point, your post simply points to the latest round of propaganda from the establishment as the award has became (and maybe always was) a bit of a joke anyway.

            No. My point is the Nobel prize is someone who is trying to wash their life of being a merchant of death.

                  Then maybe (after the renaming) , those who allowed a ship load of infected ppl to proliferate covid into the largest city in Straya could be nominated. Then we have Newmarch House and Gladys et al allowed staff to drag covid from care centre to care centre and elders dropped like flies, under her gold std clusterf*ck.

        Hopefully you get the point, your post simply points to the latest round of propaganda from the establishment as the award has became (and maybe always was) a bit of a joke anyway.

        A more accurate respresentation would be: Researchers awarded Nobel Prize for developing synthetic modified rna that tricks the body into expressing proteins it would have otherwise destroyed.

        It is technically an incredible achievement, but it also is an abuse & misuse of technology. The award will give legitimacy to the field of synthetic biology, at least to the mass of people who aren't awake yet.

      • The Nobel Peace Prize is purely political, but the other categories are legit.

        The lobotomy was considered a legit medical advance at the time, and the Haber-Bosch process was a outstanding advance still used on a massive scale to this day.

    • Seems there's a bit more going on with this nobel prize biz that most of us are being told. Luckily I'm not afraid to look outside of the cave now and then. :)

      "The decision to honor Karikó and Weissman while omitting key contributors like Dr. Robert Malone raises questions about the narrative that’s being pushed surrounding mRNA technology. One thing is sure: COVID is just the beginning. And what will likely ensue will be subsequent campaigns to get more mRNA injected into every man, woman, and child.
      Soon, mRNA technology will be coming to flu vaccines. Supporters tout that the adaptability of mRNA technology allows for quicker response times in developing vaccines that can more accurately target circulating influenza strains, potentially making yearly flu shots more effective.

      Furthermore, work is being done to apply mRNA technology to “treat” various other diseases. It is being explored as a potential treatment for sickle-cell disease and the autoimmune disorder, multiple sclerosis. Additionally, its application in cancer treatment is under investigation, with the aim of harnessing the immune system to combat malignancies.

      The fight against HIV, a long-standing global health challenge, is also on mRNA’s radar. Currently, three experimental HIV vaccines, built on an mRNA design akin to the COVID-19 vaccines, are in the early stages of human clinical trials.

      a renowned scientist, medical doctor, and pioneer in mRNA vaccine technology, made some fiery comments on “X.”

      Dr Robert Malone stated, “Kariko and Weissman get the Nobel, not for inventing mRNA vaccines (because I did that) but for adding the pseudouridine that allowed unlimited spike toxins to be manufactured in what could have been a safe and effective vaccine platform, if safely developed.” Malone further criticized the integrity of the award process, suggesting undue influence from pharmaceutical giants. “Pfizer has been campaigning for this since 2020 – at first, they even claimed (as did Kariko) that she invented the mRNA vaccine platform technology. Pfizer donates heavily to the Karolinska Institute, which awards the Nobel. Science has been hijacked again by big pharma.”

      • Luckily I'm not afraid to look outside of the cave now and then. :)

        Congratulations - you looked outside your own cave, and discovered a far deeper and darker one to link to. 🤣

    • Furthermore.

      https://slaynews.com/news/nobel-winner-warned-vaids-risks-mr…

      Drew Weissman, one of the winners of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Medicine, previously warned of the risks of vaccine-acquired immune deficiency syndrome (VAIDS) posed by mRNA shots.

      This week, Weissman, along with fellow scientist Katalin Karikó, were awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Medicine for their role in developing the mRNA technology used by pharmaceutical companies.

      However, Weissman has previously warned about the “non-trivial” side effects linked to the injections.

      In a paper published as recently as 2018, Weissman warned that prior clinical trials of mRNA vaccines had produced results that were “more modest in humans than was expected based on animal models… and the side effects were not trivial.”

      Those “side effects” include “moderate and in rare cases severe injection site or systemic reactions”.

      Weissman’s paper in the peer-reviewed Nature Reviews Drug Discovery highlighted the health risk that the shots posed.

      They warned that can cause VAIDS – a form of AIDS-like immunodeficiency.

      They also urged keeping tabs on the “expressed immunogen” and on any auto-reactive antibodies.

      “A possible concern could be that some mRNA-based vaccine platforms induce potent type I interferon responses, which have been associated not only with inflammation but also potentially with autoimmunity,” they wrote.

      “Thus, identification of individuals at an increased risk of autoimmune reactions before mRNA vaccination may allow reasonable precautions to be taken.”

      Weissman also warned in the paper that the mRNA shots can cause blood clots.

      The authors noted in the paper that extracellular RNA could contribute to edema, and cited a study that showed it “promoted blood coagulation and pathological thrombus formation.”

        Prove it.
        I saved 10 lives myself today but not going for a drive. Prove me wrong.
        All of the covid scare numbers were based on very VERY inaccurate 'modelling' and the claimed 'lives saved' numbers are no different.

        • +8

          Good point, I will prove it.

          Chance of death for a single car trip = (Total car fatalities per year / Total residents) / (Average trips per person per day * Percentage of car trips)

          Chance of death for a single car trip = (1194 / 24,770,000) / (3.84 * 0.69)

          Now, calculate the chance of death:

          Chance of death for a single car trip ≈ 6.69e-07

          The chance of death for a single car trip is approximately 1 in 1,494,382.

          Thank you for your service in saving one in 1.5 million of a person.

          How about you prove that the models are not accurate using mathematics. Also, what is your highest level of education in statistics or the medical field? Personally, I do not have any professional medical training, so I tend to listen to scientific consensus, but I did study statistics and can tell you are talking out of your arse on that front.

            @ginormousgiraffe: Don't underestimate inability.
            I;m pretty sure immortal could easily be as bad a driver as he is a genius, and could well take out 10 innocent drivers every time he hits the road.But I think your observation about his word orifice may be accurate,anyway.

          • @ginormousgiraffe: You can't just apply the average across the board like that though…

            EightImmortals may be a far worse driver than average, maybe he's high on drugs and half way through a bottle of whiskey. You can't just ignore these factors, he could well have saved 10 lives by not driving today.

            A healthy young person was never at any real risk from covid, an elderly person was at far greater risk. You can't just average them out.

            • @trapper: With covid, younger people were at far less risk, for sure, but the excess deaths in even the 0-9 age groups was not negligible. Also, how many of the young adult population do you think truly had no underlying health issues, and how many of those diagnosed? Family history of high blood pressure, heart disease, depression, anxiety, immune disorders, asthma, etc. are all considered underlying conditions when reported.

              The statistics for children and young Australians still pointed towards the vaccine as the more sensible choice, but that was your choice to make. For older Australians and those that knew they had health conditions, with all due respect, they were stupid if they went against medical advice.
