That made me laugh.

Really? All of it? Even potassium chloride? Because you also find that in bananas so better take those away from the kids.
Where did you dream up all that nonsense? No need to answer, i don't care. Once again though, jabbing kids - and by the looks of it FIVE YEAR OLDS - for no need is CRUEL ABUSE, something you seem to relish Pippin. What else do you abuse, kittens, puppies - your other half, yourself????Sarcasm is not the rapier of with its wielders seem to believe it to be, but merely a club: it may, by dint of brute force, occasionally raise bruises, but it never cuts or pierces. Sarcasm is the refuge of a shallow mind.
Very much wrong! You see, people like you have decided that vaccines are supposed to make you immune and then jumped up and down with glee when you find out they don't do that and you can tell everyone how they're pointless and how everyone is lying.
The chemical constituents of a vaccine are easily accessible by anyone online. They even give you an information sheet with them on when you have the vaccine. As for where those are found elsewhere, most of it is comment knowledge, the rest can be looked up without much trouble at all.
That is a very common argument and is mis-guided. As my comment to Chuck said, vaccines aren't designed to work on an individual, they are designed to work on the population as a whole.
The problem is (for me anyway), NO ONE, not the government, not the NHS brass, not the swathe of scientists that are brought out like lambs to the slaughter are saying this either!Pippin89 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 7:36 amVery much wrong!

The problem is, no one ever said they make you fully immune. That's not what vaccines do, or have ever done. What they do is limit your symptoms, and more importantly, reduce the amount of time you are infectious for.
Well thats not a very good example really though is it. While a vaccinated person may be infectious for less time, they are still fully able to both catch and spread the virus. Using your example it would need to be one drink driver thats twice the legal limit, and one that is 4 times the legal limit. Both still dangerous, but one for a longer period of time.Pippin89 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 7:43 amThat is a very common argument and is mis-guided.

To put it into context, if I'm not drink driving, why should I care if someone else is? An unvaccinated person can still infect a vaccinated person, also those who are allergic to the vaccine or can't have it for other reasons, and those that it is not effective for. But most of all, it stunts the attempts to reduce the virus to the point where we can all get back to normal lives.
My intended effect not being 100% effective in that analogy was that a sober driver could still crash and kill someone. Its just far less likely...Blackstuff wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 7:55 am Well thats not a very good example really though is it.

Understood, but I thought the difference between an unvaccinated and vaccinated person, and a drunk and sober driver wasn't an accurate comparative. More that they're both over the limit, both just as able to kill someone, but one will be back under the legal limit/less likely to kill someone in a shorter time. Suggesting the difference is between drunk and sober to me smacks of the 'vaccine invincibility syndrome' lie peddled by the government.Pippin89 wrote: ↑Tue Sep 21, 2021 7:59 amMy intended effect not being 100% effective in that analogy was that a sober driver could still crash and kill someone.
