In response to recent comments. Firstly, it’s important for people to remember that getting the covid vaccine, doesn’t stop you getting covid or from passing it on, it just lessens the symptoms.
I believe that means, those who choose not to be vaccinated won’t contribute to you or your grandmother getting covid or dying. If you do believe that the vaccine will protect you, then there is no reason to shame and blame people, as this only contributes to more division. We can reach herd immunity together, vaxxed or un-vaxxed, as we all develop antibodies. Everyone has a birthright to decide what drug they put in their body, free from guilt, government control, or coercion.
Research government adverse reaction websites, America’s VAERS, Australia’s TGA and the Yellow Card system in Europe, to verify that thousands of people have died shortly after receiving a vaccine treatment [these websites are generally based on voluntary reporting systems and clearly state that deaths and other ‘injuries’ may occur after someone has had a vaccine, but this does not mean they were caused by the vaccine – Ed].
People taking part in this pharmacological experiment are basically lab rats.
Our PM is suggesting that not only will we need the vaccine passport/certificate to travel internationally, but for interstate travel as well. Think about that for a minute. Prisoners in our own self-imposed fortress.
The PM also wants a vaccine wallet. Where is this coercion heading? Expect: no job, school, child care, cash, licence, shopping, restaurants, travel, dole, pension – no nothing, unless you comply.
This is not the free country our grandparents died defending. For a virus that has 99.95 per cent survival rate for those under 70, you should not only be asking ‘Why the coercion?’ But also screaming ‘NO WAY!’ from the highest mountain.
I’d rather build on and trust my own healthy immune system and natural or available treatments than an experimental ‘Emergency Use’ listed vaccine, any day.
