Yeah they don't work against the virus, but at least they prevent bear attacks. No vaxxed person has been attacked by a bear. 🐻
Yet.
My neighbor was vaccinated in June, 2021 and has not been attacked by a bear ever since.
If they do it'll be because they haven't had a booster recently enough.
Now do the same with deaths as you promised two months ago.

Alright I'll concede that deaths are down likely due to the vaccines if you concede that the vaccines aren't stopping the spread.
Seems like you have to be boosted every few months.
Now make the post.
The point of endless boosters is to repress natural immunity in as many people as possible, because every case of natural immunity is a lost vaccine customer. It's in big pharma's financial interest to keep this pandemic going as long as possible in order to keep selling booster shots to as many people as possible.
If 60% of Pfizer's sales are covid vaccines, what happens to them when the covid vaccine market dries up because the pandemic is over? A corporation like that can't afford to lose 60% of its business.
And if you have any doubts that big pharma would do something that unethical, go watch Dopesick.
We don't know yet if their will be endless boosters. I bet Covid will end up like the flu, where a portion of the population (especially the older ones) will get a shot every year.
They are not, because natural immunity isn't a 100% safe way out. Look at the new Omicron variant. It spreads even under the previous infected.
They can because they knew from the first day that this wouldn't go on forever. And they are now the leader in mRNA tech. This tech will not only be used for vaccines. It's one of the most promising medical developments in the last few decades. In ten to twenty years even the standard cancer treatment will be probably based on mRNA tech and Pfizer and Moderna will make billions and billions with it.
Lol. Israel’s on their fourth shot already.
Except it will. They can make it go on forever.

Remember when everyone on both sides of the political spectrum understood that big pharma are the epitome of evil? What the hell happened?
We can thank China and people in South Africa with HIV for this.
Vitamin D, Zinc and Quercetin reduces hospitalization by definition that should be a vaccine as well.
I guess we'll have to wait and see what proportion of the vaxxed/unvaxxed wind up in the hospital.
According to you covid has been spreading like wildfire through the unvaxxed meaning most will have some degree of natural immunity. South African data suggests wide spread natural immunity not vaccination is the cause of the low levels of hospitalizations and deaths. There are a lot of fat, vitamin D deficient, immune-compromised vaccinated non-boostered people in for a rude surprise when they get omicron, and get it they will since everyone is supposed to get it.
I figured out why it doesn't bother you to be so wrong. It's because you don't bother to research your opinions to find out if there's any truth to them. That's why you rarely supply links too, I bet. It all makes sense now.
Canada's covid deaths per 1 million is currently 788. South Africa's is 1,502. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
And covid is hardest on older people. South Africa's average age is 27.4 and Canada's is 41.1.

South Africa has a higher population density and much higher number of people with HIV, which puts them at greater risk of sever outcomes. The fact that their deaths have not been significantly higher is interesting.
But in the end this is about natural immunity and how it impacts omicrom. It's estimated SA has a 60 to 70% natural immunity level and as a result omicron has not been a serious issue. How widespread is natural immunity in Canada? Probably much less, meaning possibly that many people people will experience serious outcomes, the majority being vaccinated, not unvaccinated.
You said:
Why do none of your quotes support that? They are all reasons why South Africa's fatality rate is twice as high as Canada's.
What happened to this "wide spread natural immunity" in South Africa that you brought up?
If Canada would have achieved the same level of natural immunity by this point our number of deaths would be similar to South Africa's, possibly higher due to our higher obesity rate and older population. Not sure why people like you are so fixated on death counts and rates since it was determined early on what the fatality rate is and what contributes to this. Boasting that Canada is somehow better goes back to your racism -- you seem to think that Canada is somehow better than predominantly black South Africa.
What level? There's no reference to natural immunity in that paper you cited.
The only reference to immunity in it was that some people think some form of partial immunity might have been obtained by the locals because there were local coronavirus strains there that do not exist in Canada. Any partial immunity South-Saharan Africa's residents might have had was not available in Canada.
The only "natural immunity" available to Canadians is through getting the virus, but 2% of the people who test positive for it die. See the "Closed Cases" box at https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/canada/.
Why would we want that? South Africa's fatality rate from covid is about twice as high as ours. Per million residents ours is 789 (https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/) and South Africa's is 1,503.
You were spreading misinformation. You said "South African data suggests wide spread natural immunity not vaccination is the cause of the low levels of hospitalizations and deaths."
You brought up Africa, not me.
Even if it does reduce hospitalization, there is still not justification for vaccine passports. If it doesn't prevent transmission, reaching herd immunity through vaccination is impossible. And we had 2 years to expand hospital capacity and we just ... didn't? So why should we be on the hook for the government's repeated failure
They work to slow the spread of communicable diseases. It's easier on the healthcare system that way.
Can't train doctors and nurses in two years.
Yeah. Who put that government in there anyway. [Looks around for the guilty party]
