Anti Vax Demonstration outside South Stand

I was once in a serious car crash on the M6, where we were stationary and hit by another car travelling at over 70mph. The force of the impact led to me getting a number of cracked ribs because I was wearing my seatbelt, which locked as I was thrown forward against it.

Anti-vaxxer logic would claim that people should ignore all the evidence to the contrary and not wear their seatbelt, as there have been documented cases where wearing one has been shown to cause injury.

Anti-vaxxer logic isn't really a thing.

It's just a series of excuses to justify an unjustifiable position that's driven mostly by fear.

replying to self again, sorry.

I posted this back in August: https://forums.bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/threads/changes-after-jabs.351689/post-14089737 where coincidentally it was also 48% of the people in hospital with covid were unvaxxed.

Given that we've had another 3 months of more adults getting vaxxed since that post, and the percentage of unvaxxed in hospital with covid hasn't decreased at all, then using simple mental maths indicates that it's even more likely that vaxxed people are avoiding hospital compared to unvaxxed, than it was in August.

And that the ever reducing number of un-vaxxed are still going into hospital with covid at an increasingly higher proportionate rate.

Remember this current '48%' is plastered over social media by Anti-vaxers as some sort of 'win', ie 'look, you have less chance of being in hospital with covid when unvaxxed, because 48%<52%' when it's bleeding obvious that the 48% comes from <15% of the adult population, whereas the 52% comes from >85% of the adult population.

Eh ?

The anti vaxxer must be more stupid than I thought if they think that 48% is a win.

Its an own goal and a defeat.

Based on those figures, simple arithmetic tells me that the chance of un vaxxed being in hospital is 5.2 times that of vaxxed, because 85/52 x 48/15 = 5.2 !!!!.
 
I had to pop into a local convenience store this morning for one ingredient my wife had forgotten to buy. There were ten people in the queue, only five wore masks, myself included. One ill-advised old chap tapped a yob and said he should be wearing a mask, and the yob said “f-off, no f-er tells me what to do, f-off and die!” I live in Bournemouth, aren’t there any nice young people left any more?

I know very little about flying a plane, if I go on holiday I trust the expert (Pilot).

I know very little about surgery or hearts, so if I need a heart operation I trust the expert (surgeon)

I know very little about immunisation, so I google a site my mate Dave told me about and a guy in his bedroom explains to me why vaccines are bad for you. Sound legit.

To be fair if I'm flying anywhere I like to have a word with the pilot and pass on a few tips from my mate, who works in Argos, to keep them right.

If you go on Twitter or FB, you'd get the impression that nobody wants the vaccine. But then after a while you realise its just the same group of people saying the same things and agreeing with each other day in, day out.

My mate constantly says this - Twitter creates the impression of a world that simply just doesn't exist in reality. If you go online you'd be convinced there is full on culture wars going on about everything all the time in modern society, when in reality, you go outside and most people are just cracking on ignoring the few crackpots. A lot of the stuff online is vastly more fringe than we realise. Twitter is just a place that attracts the gobbiest types (guilty lol), and even a few voices can seem like a lot when they're that persistent.

Be funny if he got Covid, was pleading for oxygen or pain relief and the doctor said the same to him.

It just looks like they're trying to convince themselves they're right rather than anyone else.

They carve out echo chambers. Block anybody who points out lies/unfacts, and constantly use one or more of:
‘Sheeple’
‘Wake up’
‘Hold!’
‘China virus lab’
‘Monkey vaccine’
 
My eldest son is a covid semi skeptic and bangs on about vaccines relentlessly. With every announcement of the need for a new jab he's off on one. That said hes gone and had his third jab today. I had to laugh when he was called for the second and he said his usual "I'm not having it, I felt like a sheep queuing last time. I'm never queuing again for anything like those Sheeple" at that point I said fair enough now the next time you're shopping in Asda just walk straight to front of a queue and tell everyone in it to fuck off and you ain't no sheep like them, let me know how it goes.
