Fixing stupid???

A true pandemic doesn't need a 24/7 media hype campaign

Oneoff, out of anyone on this site, you've screamed the loudest about corruption at the municipal level, i spent 10 years there, and i completely agree with you. Now connect the dots and realize it runs thru every level of govt. It's not convenient but it's the gods honest truth, it got to the municipal level last. Once you have been there, you'll see it, the rot runs deep.

Oneoff,

Face it, this Topic' is much more than about Covid-19 vaccines.

Many if not Most Municipalities... pay elected councilors to keep their mouths SHUT...

CFO/CEO's are hired that are theoretically supposed to run the Municipality... and the Reeve/Mayor is now to be 'Non-political' and direct 'Policy' instead of 'direct democracy' which used to mean that the elected officials were responsible to look after the needs of the citizens.

President Trump did not believe the present 'Deep State' 'Swamp' was actually accountable to the citizens... and for THAT was bounced out of office... BECAUSE THE SWAMP MEMBERS WHO RUN THE GOVERNMENTS DID NOT APPRECIATE 'ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES' RUNNING 'THEIR' GOVERNMENTS...

Clearly Trump WAS hands on[for that he, TRUMP, was elected and paid a very huge price for]... and few 'civil servants' are CIVIL... so the 'purge' of those who would challenge the 'civil servants' continues. Trump as any human does, made mistakes. Some would argue [76M American citizens] that Trumps good attributes outweighed his faults.

'Vice-President' Biden is [now 2nd in command] obviously a creature of the Deep State 'civil servants' system, and 'President' Harris is in charge of the US Government... as Vice President Biden indicated yesterday. Who do you think made up all those 'Executive Orders'? Few would argue that it was Biden. Biden is obviously NOT the 'Commander and Chief' of the USA. That would be "President Harris" who is running the USA, appointed by, not elected by, the 'civil servants' who actually run the US Government.

This is why few people like Premier Kenny, Kenny runs the Alberta Government much like Ralph Klein did and few 'civil servants' like it.

Fixing Stupid will take a very long time... if we the citizens keep turning over our governments to 'civil servants' Deep State unaccountable leadership who are paid massive salaries to remain unaccountable 'civil servants' who are paid to insulate elected politicians from government decisions. This creates the perfect environment for Corruption... which few people can withstand... when the pay is great and the path is simple to 'Blame the Politician' for following 'Orders' [From the 'civil servants' no less]

It took 4 decades or more to brake and disassociate our governments leadership [from the Citizens]... Fixing Stupid [if ever] is an arduous, unappreciated, costly project... that few would be as 'Stupid' as President Trump was to try!!!

God Bless America! God Bless Canada!! The IMF just said 'Don't withdraw the Pandemic support too soon' which means don't expect Canada to return to the 'old normal' any time soon!

"Fixing stupid" does not involve vaccines or the end of the Pandemic.

Cheers

Again; did you all miss the Fox News/T****p interview within the last couple days


Did HE not clearly say the vaccine was safe? Even insinuate that he clearly was responsible for its creation.

And then HE clearly advised people; including specifically his supporters to get vaccinated.

Now did you take those statements at face value or not?
I personally think HE may have come to the realization that dead people don't or can't vote...but maybe the lemmings that follow him are a bit confused about trying to keep up with his latest position.

Dead people vote for Biden so doesnt appear to be a problem.

Our health guru Fauci is vaccinated and still run around with a double mask like a retard.

Apparently on yesterdays CBC news, a clinic was wondering what to do with EXTRA doses... the estimate need did not show up. We will NEVER be told % that never took it. Be prepare for lies bombardment on MSM. Would kill the narrative, inflame the SHEEP! Nobody in my circle will take a shot, ATM, see how it pans out.

The doctor might say he's forgotten multiple times more than more than all those (combined) who posted and "liked" that last ignorant post. You guys are pretty insecure; and certainly not showing any intelligence..

And oneoff, you are showing a totally lack of critical thinking. Information is still coming through daily. The science is not settled no matter how bad you want to be safe in the arms of govt.

Now 2 countries have reported a link with blood clots in the AZ vaccine and a deeper investigation is likely coming. Hope thats not the one you got.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/astrazeneca-blood-clot-risk-canada-1.5957462

Front line workers in the US, you know the ones in hospitals, are refusing the vaccine now.

I am just kind of curious what kind of a fool would take a vaccine, then still wear two masks, not travel or see family and stay locked down like the govts are telling people to do. Like seriously what kind of a person is that?

[oneoff]

For every step you may think you advance your crusade..you will find yourself 9 steps further back. Your lack of truthful evidence is truly astounding.

Repeating anecdotal evidence is worth nothing in any effort to control this pandemic; that kills hundreds of thousands that you won't/can't/don't understand/and won't ever understand or listen about. News reports that within days are changed to finding no significant risk compared to substantial benefits are not the setbacks you seek.

Luckily you are not gaining additional support; and Sask residents at least are going to get vaccinated in spite of the handful of your like minded crusaders.
It must really irk such supporters to see every country in the world eager to find additional Covid vaccine supplies.

COVID-19 variants threat looms: Virus could 'take off fast', despite vaccinations across the country, Dr. Tam warns

Canada's top doctor warns of continued threats from variants of concern as more people are able to access COVID-19 vaccines across the country.

"There is indication that after coming down that second wave, that down slope, we initially sort of plateaued at about two-thirds of the way down and then we’re now beginning to see an uptick in cases," Dr. Theresa Tam, Canada’s chief public health officer said at a press conference on Friday.

"There is a risk in different areas of Canada, not everywhere, that these variants could result in the disease activity taking off fast."

While less than 10 per cent of Canadians have received a COVID-19 vaccine, Dr. Tam stressed that this is still not the time to have large gatherings. But she did say that as the weather gets warmer and more vaccines are administered, the "bubbling" concept could be something Canadians see again.

Communication around the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine

Dr. Tam reiterated that the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine "has not been associated with an increase in the overall risk of blood clots," contrary to some earlier concerns about this particular vaccine.

"Rare adverse events are expected to be detected when vaccines are given to millions of people," she explained. "It is possible that the vaccine may be associated with very rare but serious cases of blood clots associated with low levels of platelets, which merits further analysis."

"Health Canada will continue to work with international regulators and review data and evidence as it becomes available. The benefits of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine in protecting Canadians from COVID-19 continues to outweigh the risks."

Dr. Marc Berthiaume, the director of the Bureau of Medical Science at Health Canada, also provided more clarity on the existing data related to the AstraZeneca vaccine.
"When you look at the data around these very rare types of blood clots associated with low platelets, the information that was provided by the European Medicines Agency is that there were 25 cases over 20 million people vaccinated with the AstraZeneca vaccine," Dr. Berthiaume explained. "These adverse events are extremely rare."

"There is a subset of those adverse events, 17 of those 25, that are called [Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis] that are continuing to be investigated."

Cerebral venous thrombosis is when a blood clot occurs in the brain’s venous sinuses, causing a stroke.

Dr. Tam also stressed the importance of communicating updates throughout the pandemic and identified that a key challenge is that the information and science keeps "moving at a very fast pace."

"There will be more support to NACI [the National Advisory Committee on Immunization], for example, in communicating their recommendation, including not just the publication of their statement but a more plain language version of that," she said. "Providing more technical briefings as a sort of regular occurrence so that anytime those recommendations are put out,...helping the public understand what led to the recommendation in the end."

So. What's your point Tom. Better to have 23,000 dead Canadians with no end insight. Additional proof of 500,000 dead in USA, and whole of rest of world under pandemic conditions?

Do you really believe that the answer is to ignore the situation and let MOTHER NATURE or God or chance determine what happens?

Or be rational and weigh the risk/benefit ratios?

It's long past the time for EVERONE to acknowledge that Covid 19 is not a hoax and is a deadly pandemic.

For those who claim otherwise there is a challenge to show any instance of a Nursing home/ long term care/Old Folks home where a COVID outbreak was easily handled by basically letting things run their course? Is there some strange pleasure associated with consoling the families of the deceased? Maybe early inheritances; freeing up land bases; just desserts; morbid reactions ...just wondering

Failure to list a single example of only minimal consequences from Covid outbreaks in above "institutions"tb will result in the continuous reposting of this particular challenge (ad infinitum and without further elaboration) in response to continued repetitious disinformation; for as long as agriville moderators allow.
