We see how the anti-vaxxer and political talking point response serves to create a distraction from the real problems.
Governments can complain about anti vaxxers all they want but they are primarily to blame.
You would think to get approval to be sold to people there would be tests and checks to ensure the safety of the public, but most of the time it seems they want the makers of the product to produce evidence that it has been tested and shown to be safe and then they demand a nice big fee for clearing it for sale.
Big industry often write the rules for sales and marketing themselves so a product like Tic Tacs that is almost completely made of sugar can have sugar free on the label because of manipulation and bullshit... if the government regulators actually cared about public health there is no way they could get away with such criminal deception.... but they do because the regulators don't care about public health and care more about commerce and big business making even more money than they already do.
It does not surprise me that people don't believe claims about vaccines, but most of the conspiracy theories that suggest you are safer not to be vaccinated are just that... conspiracy theories.
Not all "vaccines" are the same and there is zero reason to push Pfizer and Moderna crap
in stead of all the proven by decades of use approaches. Why re-invent the wheel in this case? It is the immune
system that is doing the work and not the vaccine.
I agree... a few western pharma companies took advantage of the situation to get billions invested into a new area of research they were interested in and we are all guinea pigs in the process... I am embarrassed that New Zealand is such a bitch and just signed up an exclusive deal with Pfizer without looking at other options and other results.... it is not like we didn't have the time and we certainly should have the capacity to make our own vaccines like Sputnik V, but politically that was not a choice available to us it seems... despite WTO rules which our government stuck to religiously costing us a clothes making industry and a car making industry, it seems not everyone is playing fair so we get little choice in the matter ultimately.
You tend to make make a lot of assumptions based on absolutely nothing, but maybe I should share that I live in a rural part of the country which means I am isolated anyway. Just me and the wife. BTW my wife was the reckless one - she went to town for some shopping - she was the one who infected me. I did not consider any criminal charger against her for putting my life in danger.
Still making jokes... you do know the delta variant kills children too, but what do you care... it is not your problem.
If you want some excitement (problems) in your life you should come and live in South Africa! A adrenaline rush a minute!
Don't be stupid... the sensible thing would be to go to Afghanistan and become an ISIS bride and after popping out a few goat fucking nutters tell my government (NZ) whose passport I burned when I left of course that I have changed my mind and I want to come home and get a free fully furnished house and car and a living allowance and counselling to help me deal with coming back to a modern western society...
Yes being a country boy I tend to care more for animals than the human kind - sorry.
Hey... I just prefer rabbits because most dogs are too big to eat in one sitting that is all. Same reason I prefer chicken to turkey.
If you read the article you would have seen that the comments that I quoted from New Zealanders - were the only ones from New Zealand (at the time). They all said the same thing - New Zealand overreacted just like I said right at the beginning and I still think so.
If they were more than a vocal minority then there would be protests and all sorts of bullshit like you see in other western countries like the UK and France.
The honest truth is that they are actually whiny bastards... for fucks sake we had about 4 weeks of lock downs to begin with and since then this is the first extra lock down we have had... compared with most other western countries we have been exceptionally lucky... but those whiny
live in a country at the arse end of the world that has barely been touched by this disease and they think it is nothing... just like you... but if you look at the experience of other countries once it is in and spreading you are fucked so obviously you isolate and block imports and you prevent it becoming a problem.
The fact that that does not make sense to you makes me appreciate you living out in the sticks brother.
In the late 90's the FDA approved another drug called Vioxx - was later banned after it killed 50 000, but yes I wanted to share the good news with Gary
I don't care what Faggots and Dumb Asses approve... means nothing at all to me.
Does not mean we can all go commando and wing it with infectious diseases and think that is just OK.
You remind me of Boris Johnson... a Covid outbreak and the dumb
goes to a hospital to visit people who caught it... no mask... no gloves... and then somehow he gets Covid and refuses to go to hospital and almost dies and they force him to go to hospital the the fucking asshole lives.... what a
.
"The prescription painkiller originally known as Vioxx may be making a comeback after its maker, Merck, abruptly pulled it from the market in 2004 following studies that showed the drug roughly doubled patients’ risks of heart attack and stroke and may have contributed to an estimated 60,000 deaths."
Americans and their painkillers... they need a chemical to protect them from life... so I would say a lethal drug is exactly what they actually need.
FROM MY cousin's wife, Lea County New Mexico
You tell her from Mir not to be so silly... the natural immunity of those people will keep them safe... or they probably would have died from the normal flu anyway.... isn't that your message Mir and KVS and Vann?
The WikiCrappia page is clearly shilling for Merck.
The core of the problem is that the FDA is a rubber stamp company that accepts fees but does not check the product is safe and relies on the companies that make the product to come up with data that shows it is... they could care less about public health...
I don't even blame the drug companies...
The pharmaceutical companies develop drugs based on the current level of medicine science.
The big pharma companies spend about 90% of their money on advertising direct to the public and to doctors to encourage them to use their products specifically by name.... most investment in new drugs and new treatments comes from government funding.
The current overflow crisis in Texas looks like it is being engineered. The hospitals have been firing hundreds of nurses and other
medical workers and then claiming they don't have enough staff.
Smells so bad it almost makes you pass out.
The UK can spend 350 billion on Trident and can only afford a 1% pay increase for health care workers... it sounds like a plan to under fund so they can privatise and throw the British people to the dogs regarding healthcare the way the Americans did with healthcare insurance...
The real irony is that most healthcare insurance companies keep making enormous profits simply by only insuring people who don't need cover, and cutting coverage of those that do.
It also worked for mental health.... how many western countries got rid of mental hospitals instead of reforming them because putting people back into the community was the best thing for them... and we wonder why there are so many shootings in the US.... honestly the way the rich screw the poor I am surprised shootings don't happen more often... especially the super rich and the politicians... who could possibly do something but really could care less.
