Dismantling the anti-vaxx industry
Investigations show that those spreading misinformation that undermines the rollout of vaccines against COVID-19 are well financed, determined and disciplined. To counter their activities, we need to understand them as an industry actively working to sow doubts about the deadliness of COVID-19, vaccines and medical professionals’ integrity.
The Anti-Vaxx IndustryHow Big Tech powers and profits from anti-vaccine misinformationOur latest report exposes how social media companies have helped sophisticated and rapidly growing anti-vaxx networks gain 58 million followers. Despite promises to keep users safe, we show how Big Tech itself makes up to $1 billion a year in advertising and other revenues from this industry, which threatens the effectiveness of a future Coronavirus vaccine

Must be the microchip
Seriously though, is she okay? Does she react to the flu shot?
Felt better. Exhausted but better.
My boss got her 2nd Moderna last week. Had about 6 hours of feeling crappy the next day but got past it.0 -

Currently it's the recommendation that you get the same shot for both, due to lack of data on a mix and match strategy. There are trials underway right now on this.my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0 -

This is really discouraging. BC was just in the process of rolling out vaccinations for teachers and front line workers with the AZ vaccine and now this. We (the province) are also increasing our restrictions as of today due to an increase in cases. Every time it seems like there is an end in sight, something blows up again.
I don't personally think that a risk of about 1 in 1,000,000 is high enough to suspend the vaccinations but it's looking more and more like we're swimming against the tide of public opinion on this vaccine. I wonder if the wealthier countries are going to decide to just cut this one out. That might be to the gain of the developing nations, so that would be something at least.my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0 -
Just got the call today from the school nurse that my son was close to a student who tested positive. He will be quarantined until April 12, ugh.I'll ride the wave where it takes me......0

^^ Is it OK for 55+ because benefits outweigh risk?
I like how you look on the bright side!
I haven't been on the same endemic page. I am awaiting the 3rd variant wave. I'm glad it didn't hit here during spring break and took advatage of safer opportunities for recreation. I'm also glad my ski hill voluntarily refusesd reservations from people more than 100 clicks away, so we're not shut down due to tourism.
Edit: Sorry to hear that McG. My kids' school still had no reports and with a new mask wearing mandate for Gr. 4-12 required in schools that will lower the odds a bit.Post edited by Spunkie onI was swimming in the Great Barrier Reef

That might be to the gain of the developing nations, so that would be something at least.With the science (or scientific interpretation) constantly changing. I'm not long sure if AZ is a problem? At first it sounded like they couldn't differentiate between whether the virus cause the clots, or if that many random people in any given population size would have them anyways. I guess the science changed?With cases spiking up here in BC, what's the costs of not using them? I think the US was sending Canada something like 1.5m doses. Moderna delayed some shipments again. Without other vaccines it's going to take a lot longer to vaccinate our population.. shrug.If someone offered me the AZ vaccine I'd take it.0 -
I can say that now in the UK the numbers are showing the benefits of what we did in December. Our full population is around 60mil
We have one dosed over 30 mil so more than half adults .
With kids included in the 60mil(that don't get one) thats a lot of people and the numbers suggest it's had a dramatic effect on hospitals. Now under 5% beds are covid in hospitals. AZ vaccine has made that possible.
People were dying all over ,now even with the most contagious variant numbers dropped off the cliff.
On another note I was involved in a survey from the start of pandemic ONS study that tested us weekly then monthly and bloods also . They actually paid us in vouchers which made presents Xmas possible for our kids because we are quite short on money.
Well they are coming again today as they now want to monitor vaccinated people. Swab and bloods 9.am so they are checking our immune response 6 weeks after AZ . Now this kind of science excites me. I hope we get the information on our immune response that would be interestingPost edited by lastexitlondon on
