Isn’t it bizarre that we are still being scared about Covid variants?
Haven’t we all accepted that Covid is not much more than a bad flu or a bad cold and that the way to protect yourself is the usual way you keep healthy. That is eat well, sleep well, exercise well and maybe take a few vitamins to supplement your diet.
Yet there they were on the TV again a couple of nights back, the usual suspects like Michael Baker, about some new variant which may or may not be causing concern.
And of course his message was that the only way to protect yourself against this new variant is get a vaccine – although he did admit that a new strand of vaccine might be needed.
Then the report goes on to feature an emergency doctor saying how he’s seeing an increase in strokes and blood clots and cardiac events. Um, I doubt very much those events are caused by catching the Covid respiratory virus.
But aren’t they acknowledged side effects of the vaccine, supposedly very rare occurrences? Yeah right.
Despite us having one of the highest vaccination rates in the world, doctors are seeing patients catching Covid for the third or fourth or fifth time. Can people not see the wood for the trees?
Surely by now, with people being boosted up the wazoo and reports coming in of some catching this virus again, or rather testing positive for it, surely the truth must hit home at some stage.
That is this vaccine is not effective at preventing you from catching the virus. We know it doesn’t prevent transmission, and never has, because the manufacturers told us so. They didn’t even test for that in their trials.
Here is a message to the media. The country is over being scared by the threat of this minor respiratory illness, even if new variants and mutations emerge.
Perhaps it’s time to understand why so many people are being admitted to ICU with strokes and heart attacks?
Or are inquiries like that likely to find embarrassing answers?
