Conspiracies The Covid Narrative

Not open for further replies.
Got the AstraZeneca first shot, no issues my nose ran a bit in my mask and a bit of blood pressure spike for the a few minutes (more due to a little anxiety I guess from getting stabbed), but nothing so far. No arm pain, not like the flu shot.
 
Gonna be getting the 1st Moderna shot today sorta nervous, hope I don't get sick cuz I really can't afford to take off work. Between my rent and hobbies I need as much money as possible. But that said I have to get this thing cuz I work in the public and just thankfully never caught Covid19.

the common experience with Moderna is to get the flu-like symptoms after the 2nd shot, if at all

I personally know 5 people who have had that jab also myself and all of us got a mildly achey arm and possibly felt a bit tired the next day and that's it

Let us know how you get on
 
Arm is soar aside from that I feel fine tho so far its been about 5 hours, think I will be okay gonna check back later on tommrow. Very glad I got it tho smart move for sure.

The E.U. has been exceedingly generous and has been supplying a good part of the world with vaccines. We are getting most of our vaccines from the E.U.

Amen to that.

It's sad Biden didn't reverse Trump's callous America First policy or ease up on the supply of precursors and basic lab equipment for other nations trying to produce vaccines, thus hamstringing the entire international production effort (and that the UK is being equally miserly), even though I do appreciate (some of) their logic and reasoning.

where is China's data and why have they not released any info about covid (from what it feels like to me) since their initial first outbreak?

Obviously MANY countries missing, but still curious.

There is data on China, they're just not releasing enough detail on first vs second doses to be included on that chart.

Here's the latest:

I was looking for an article not behind a paywall to explain Bhutan's extraordinary vaccine progress, which went from zero to hero in a matter of days. It's kinda amusing, some of y'all might like to read about it.

Here's one:

Bhutan went from no jabs to being a world leader in COVID-19 vaccine rollout in three weeks. Here's how they did it​


When the tiny Himalayan nation of Bhutan was gifted 150,000 doses of the AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine in January, they decided to consult the stars before rolling them out.

Buddhist monks informed the government that the most auspicious time to begin the inoculation drive was late March, and a woman born in the Year of the Monkey was an ideal candidate....

Read on below


www.abc.net.au

How a tiny country used Buddhist astrology to vaccinate 93 per cent of its adults in 16 days

Bhutan has surged past Israel, the US and Bahrain to have the world's highest proportion of adults who have received one dose. But it wasn't just a lucky star that got them there.

Woke up with a soar arm but aside from that I feel great, popped 400mgs Cimetidine and took 105mgs Methadone and really feel toasty/high cuz I dosed low last couple days. So the Opioids could be masking any negative feelings from the vaccine. Who knows, got the next appointment set up for a month from now and im actually seeing another doctor in that town same day and have scheduled to be off work so that's great.

great stuff, that seems to be the common experience with 1st dose Moderna, minus the opies :)
 
Sore arm, did a 10k run/walk, smokes and caffeine are the cure so far. Don't really feel sick, which I find strange.
 
Second day since Moderna shot and I woke up feeling completely normal, the vaccine isn't anything to fear. What you should be scared of is contracting covid and spreading it to your loved ones, I bet you don't wear a mask either do you?

I think the first step is the patents and then equipment etc can follow, it would be an amazing symbolic gesture as well. I thought Washington was firmly against but I just read this article:
www.bbc.com

Covid: US backs waiver on vaccine patents to boost supply

Supporters say the move would increase vaccine production but the pharmaceutical industry disagrees.

That’s amoral. Do you understand that you could be spreading COVID to vulnerable people?

I’m not in any official places with boomers or sick/obese people. If I were, and they asked, I would tell the truth for sure. I’m just trying to avoid woke lemmings from talking to me in these situations tbh. I was in a super neo liberal area last time I had to lie about it.

Not trying to be judgy here or anything. I understand your concerns. I just want you to consider something please. I am, to all appearances, a reasonably fit and active looking early forties male. What people don't know by looking at me is that I take ten difference medications a day right now to keep my lungs from filling with fluid and drowning me. My immune system is compromised and I am in the extremely high risk category for covid. You wouldn't know that to look at me though. I just want you to think of that when you're in these situations... again, no judgement, make the call you think is right, I'm just trying to give you a little perspective from a different point of view.

You do realize that other people are vulnerable to COVID infection besides the elderly and obese, right? And perfectly healthy people you infect can pass it on to vulnerable people? Of course you are. Never mind.
Why lie though? Why not declare your rights and freedoms loud and proud? Afraid of a Karen attack?

I’m talking social situations etc. I just despise the establishment propaganda around it and the indoctrination. Having close family in the expert infectious disease field is why I’m annoyed by it all ultimately.
