Where have all the anti-vaxxers gone?

[fossyant]

My daughter finally caved and got her first dose last week.

I received a bit of a rant in a WhatsApp message about why she didn’t need it and being ‘terrified and crying’ as well as being bullied into it by some venues needing the Covid Passport.

Kids eh?!

The pressure is from the idiots on social media. My daughter was physically sick before both, even though she was fine to get it, the crap out there causes the anxiety.

I couldn't give a hoot about injections now. Used to have to get a massive needle every two weeks, massive enough that when in the spinal unit, the nurses took one look and asked the matron to do it. It never hurt.

Her fear is nothing at all to do with a needle.

Her head has been filled with all the nonsense that the vaccine wasn’t properly tested and is going to do all sorts of nasty things to her. That is the root cause of her fear.

That was not mentioned as the causation of her terror AT ALL in your initial post.
I am surprised that young people are so gullible as to believe such crap; it is always 'the old folk' who are so designated and thought to be 'vulnerable to scammers' - and usually by those much younger than themselves.

I didn’t state the cause of her fear in my initial post as, to me, it wasn’t relevant. It only became relevant when an assumption of a fear of needles was the cause.

I’ll leave things at that.

The Tweet.

The epic response.

Of course, if the apparently-real fear is ALL ABOUT (or at least, related to) mRNA technology (or rather, the ignorance about it ...) why are these oh-so-fearful people not clamouring for viral vector vaccines instead?

I’ve said before all the young ones , heads turned by all the crap on social media, believing all the scare stories . Riddle me this wife’s cousin refused to get the vaccine , 25yr old however quite happy to smoke a bit of hash and snort some of the Colombian marching powder no questions asked . @rseholes everywhere unfortunately

They don’t understand they seem to think all Covid vaccines are MRNA based.

Let’s see how they feel if the progress with MRNA based treatments and cancer goes well, I bet they would change their minds then.

The issue is more that they don't seem able to actually think at all.

I'm not too sure about that. After all 'young people don't get cancer' is what too many - even of the supposedly-educated - think, and the minds of the mRNA-obsessed-ignorant-and-phobic will probably not be deflected from their purpose that easily, when there are so many of the vile Shemiranis and her ilk to 'guide them down the path of true health' or some such drivel.

Honestly I am sick of them. I had black sharpies in my bag the other day when I was in town and stopped to help a young man who was peeling off a sticker from the lit-up man on a pelican crossing. He had got quite a lot of it off and I scribbled over the rest. He was spitting in rage and said he had almost lost his gran this time last year. I told him to be careful of razor blades in them and he said he knew but the ones on the lights were easy to check, once the coloured light glowed through the paper.

Young people are much more avid users of the internet as a news and current affairs source, possibly including conspiracy theories, than older people, so it is no surprise that a large number give some credence to those theories.

Call me naive but if all these anti vaxers bother you so much why do you go out of your way to expose yourself to them ( not literally) I picked up on martial art man 'handing out leaflets ' for example, it seems a lot of you read their posts on social media also?

They're idiots, let them get on with it.

Please explain more about this/these switch/es.
Is there just the one, or are there several positioned around the country? Where are they, and when do they come into operation - it is on a regular basis, or is it intermittently/randomly?
If I wear tinfoil underwear, will that protect me sufficiently, or do I need to wear an entire bodysuit of tinfoil? And does it need to be tinfoil or will aluminium foil do instead?

As I understand it, you can use aluminium foil instead but you must make sure to wrap it three times around your heels to be certain you’re earthed at all times

Yes, that makes sense. I think I'll use the extra-thick turkey foil to ensure effective protection AND earthing. The problem is, though, that if I'm on my bike, the rubber tyres will prevent effective earthing, won't they? Should I drag a chain at all times, just in case I pass a live 5G switching station? Or is that only effective at Hallowe'en?

Word on the street is that it’s all linked to the rollout of Windows 11. Apparently it modifies your WiFi signal so that you don’t need to be close to a 5G mast any more. All it will take is for you to receive a carefully crafted email - even deleting it won’t protect you - and boom, your DNA will twisted out of shape forever. Be afraid.

But surely if I'm wearing my tinfoil body suit with three layers to ensure earthing, I get some measure of protection at least?

The Powers That Be have thought of that I’m afraid. The same upgrade allows them to make your screen flicker in such a way that a subliminal reaction occurs in your brain and that triggers the implanted nano chips. Did you really think their carefully crafted plan could be so easily… ahem… foiled?
