From Manitoba Yet one inconvenient statistic remains: More people died in 2022 either from COVID-19 or in association with the disease in this province than during each of the first two years of the pandemic. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/covid-deaths-analysis-1.6699040 Which is 1) One province. 2) Quite a bit short of your 45% claim. 3). And in March of 22, switched from counting deaths from Covid, to deaths from or associated with Covid.

Posting an article where the very first words are literally "Hello my fellow conspiracy theorists" and pretending it's a news source about COVID is outstanding satire and a great commentary on how idiotic the right wing nut job anti-vaxxers are. Well done! 10/10 would laugh again. Edited January 31, 2023 by mistertim 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) And here I thought free thinkers like 🤬 blamed comorbidities for deaths being labeled covid related? Guess we have moved on from that. 😄 Full disclosure, I work for a State Health Department supporting lab personnel in the Infectious Diseases division. We were one of the first, if not the first, to test blood/saliva/mucus for covid back in Feb/March 2020 here in the US. So I know what a once in a generation pandemic does and what immunizations are (and aren't). Stating that people are still dying despite immunizations suggests that you don't. It's not a cure. It never was. It is still the most effective way to keep the cases down and or keep them from being fatal. I can't imagine where'd we be without the mrna vaccines. Probably staring at 10x the total deaths. 41 minutes ago, mistertim said: *said every anti-vaxxer who also later died of COVID* Tim be like...

Bang Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Apparently nothing is more important to these nutbags than personal freedom, unless you do something they don't like. You don't want the needle, don't get the ****ing needle. Then exercise what you believe and shut the **** up about the choice anybody else makes. If it kills people, so what? Why do you care? It's not like you actually do, you're just the usual rage-aholic who cant just do what he chooses and then shut the **** up and let others do what they choose. If what you choose has consequences, well, grow the **** up and deal with it. You made the choice. ****ing dip****s. Think of it this way. If everyone who got the shot died, you'd finally be happy. Same as if all of you who didn't went on ahead and died, I'd be happy. ~Bang 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy to do and fun for the whole family! Right there on Worldometer, if you look at graphs for the whole world, including Canada, you see that there were huge spikes in cases (and, subsequently, deaths) at around the same time (late 2021 to early 2022) pretty much everywhere that then went back down by around the end of spring. It's almost as if there was some sort of...highly infectious variant that had resistance to the initial vaccines that came around or something! Wait...there was?!?! So that article you quoted is basically just another instance of conspiracy nutjobs finding one specific number, taking it out of context, and then saying it proves their entire hypothesis that vaccines are bad. It's a lot like when creationists say "Well, do you scientists have a specific transitionary fossil between these two species?" "No, not yet" "HAHA! EVOLUTION IS WRONG!"

Nobody really cares if you're vaccinated, but you're pretty clearly uninformed. Pro tip: every possible viewpoint is available on the dumb parts of the internet; the fact that it's on a random website doesn't confer authority on it in any way. It's on you for being a colossal sucker. Edited January 31, 2023 by JCB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going to preface this by saying i'm not anti-vax, and did get vaccinated, and when eligible will be getting my shingles vaccine, because i just got shingles...and it sucks the sweat off a donkeys balls. The point I think some are missing is that some of this stems from feelings of loss of freedom to choose. This is not a republican/democrat problem or even one that is unique to the US. This same sentiment is world wide. Do you know why people arent completely freaking out about the flu shot? Because its not mandated. Its the notion of being told they HAVE to get it. Now, Im not saying this is the case for everyone, i mean there have always been anti-vaxxers. This just gave them more of a voice sadly. This is a free country, including free to be a dumbass.

Should people be free to drink and drive too, then? Sorry, but when it's a critical public safety issue that can kill people, your (generic your not you specifically) hurt feelings can eat an entire bag of dicks as far as I'm concerned. Especially when it's nothing more onerous than a stupid vaccine that has no more side effects than any other vaccine (some of which ARE mandated, for kids in school for example). Screaming "MUH FREEDOMS" doesn't immediately relieve people of any and all social responsibility. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so.smoking should be illegal, as should drinking, as all drug use, etc. Lines must be drawn somewhere. Drink and driving effects more then the dumbass. You can vaccinate yourself, doesnt mean they have to. Theres the difference. Edit: i want to add, why isnt smallpox vaccine mandated? I would argue that one is just as bad.

That's what I've been wondering, for years. The motive. When the GOP opposes every single restriction on pollution, I can understand why. They're voting to harm the entire country, because the polluters paid them to. It's evil. But I can see the motive. But how did they decide that hundreds, thousands, of Americans dying every day from a disease that we have the ability to fight, was a political winner for them? The virus doesn't make dark money campaign contributions. It doesn't vote. Doesn't hire lobbyists. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can vaccinate yourself, doesnt mean they have to. Just pointing out. You just literally stated that drunk driving is like not getting vaccinated, (they both affect other people, too), as a prelude to saying "therefore they're different". And sorry. I'm calling BS on the "they're opposed to the mandate". There was active resistance, and active disinformation campaigns, to every single attempt to do anything to oppose this virus. No one is arguing that the virus contains tracking chips, or makes spoons stick, or causes Parkinson's, or doesn't work, because they're opposed to the mandate.
