Nexii Posted February 11, 2022 Report Posted February 11, 2022 Somewhere around 25% of ICU cases are the unvaccinated. With 10% of the population being unvaccinated, that means they are occupying beds at 2.5x the rate of the vaccinated. It's certainly not the 10-20x the rate of previous variants. So at most if every single unvaccinated got the shot it'd be 25% less cases total. But nope, it's less than that because the vax is only about 60-70% effective. So that reduces vaccinating the last 10% of the population down to around 16% less ICU cases total. The real problem is hospital and ICU beds per capita has gone down over time. Canada used to have 7 per 1000 capita in the 1980s now we're at like 2.5 per 1000. There just isn't capacity I guess we're spending on everything but places for sick people to recover. Quote

Just what do you think would happen if we did? Who said that? Offer the vaccines to the most at risk and let everyone else decide on what they want to put in their own body. Pretty simple concept Quote

It won't be short term. The result could be a country where young people are trying to earn a living where thousands of companies have either gone broke or moved south because Canada is no longer seen as a reliable source by our largest trading partner. Other countries will also be paying attention and making decisions accordingly. Long term, you are shooting yourself in the foot just to get rid of a PM you don't like.

CITIZEN_2015 Posted February 12, 2022 Report Posted February 12, 2022 Yeah right Canadians will start boycotting vaccines!!!!!!!!. 88% received one jab so far already and 60000 more just last week. 82% received 2 shots already. 50% received third jab so far and fast increasing. What a boycott!!!!!!!! Quote

However it's not a mob when you have from 45 - 61% support across various age groups. Sounds like the will of the poeple Which people though and the will for what? Quote Leger surveyed 1,546 people between Feb. 4 and Feb. 6 and found that, while 62 per cent of all respondents strongly or somewhat oppose the anti-mandate message of the Freedom Convoy protest, 44 per cent of those who are fully vaccinated said they could sympathize with “the concerns and frustrations being voiced by people involved in the trucker protest in Ottawa.” One third (32 per cent) of Canadians support the message conveyed by the protesters, who are calling for no vaccine mandates and fewer public health measures, while seven per cent are undecided. https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/almost-half-of-canadians-sympathetic-to-concerns-and-frustrations-of-ottawa-trucker-protest I'm actually surprised at the 32% who support the message given how much of that message contains references to the commie fascist Nazi's who've taken over Canada. Of course if you're supportive of that sort of messaging and hang out in an echo chamber where support for that is probably closer 75 - 85% it must be easier to convince yourself you're winning.

blackbird Posted February 13, 2022 Report Posted February 13, 2022 On 2/11/2022 at 7:43 AM, TrudeauSucks said: To stand in solidarity with those who are being forced to get vaccinated against their will, it's time for the rest of Canadians to boycott the Booster, and all future vaccines until the government respects individual rights. We as protesters, must make it known, that we're boycotting vaccines until the government get rid of these mandates. If people promote a widesprad boycott of Vaccines, prehaps Pfizer and Moderna will convince governments to end these mandates, since they don't want to scare away future customers. If the Majority of Canadians refuse to take vaccines, until individual rights are protected, the power established will see their policies as contradictive. Speak up and tell your friends to start protests that supports boycotting vaccines. We need boycotts against vaccine mandates. This is a very unwise thing to say or promote because vaccination is the only way out of the pandemic. By promoting the idea people should not get vaccinated you may be costing other people to lose their lives unnecessarily or harm their health if they have not been vaccinated and catch Covid. Everyone can hold their own opinion, but if you oppose vaccination, it is better to keep it to yourself. Another fact is that families have been greatly harmed and divided over differences on the issues related to the pandemic such as vaccination. People have lost friends. We all need to rethink this whole thing and find a way to get through it without causing division and harming relationships. Since vaccination is the only way health authorities say we can get through this pandemic, the idea of promoting vaccination should be held as sacred. But we should go easy on anti-vaxxers in our personal relationships and families and those who oppose vaccination should restraint themselves in their comments and allow the world to get vaccinated.

TrudeauSucks Posted February 14, 2022 Author Report Posted February 14, 2022 (edited) So listening to the treasonous lies and deception of Justin Trudeau, he's made Canadians think that vaccines are the only way to get through a pandemic. Well guess what, there were no vaccines durring the spanish flu in 1918, and the pandemic lasted less than 3 years. The only way to get through a pandemic, is through herd immunity, and when you do lockdowns you severly supress herd immunity. When you don't have herd immunity, it allows new varients to be even more powerful and the pandemic prolongs itself. A better idea is to let the healthy people get infected first, then once they're immune they can go back to work, while we provide a buffer for the immune compromised. Allowing the immune compromise the choice to get vaccinated, while letting the younger people build natural immunity is the answer. Forcing people to get vaccated only amplifies vaccines hesitancy, and it can cause a civil war. I think more people will be terrified of taking vaccines in the future, thanks to justin trudeaus creepy policies. Edited February 14, 2022 by TrudeauSucks Quote
Michael Hardner Posted February 14, 2022 Report Posted February 14, 2022 https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/1918-spanish-flu-in-canada 50,000 dead from the Spanish Flu. So do we start boycotting now ? With about 89% of 5 years old+ vaccinated ? Quote Click to learn why Climate Change is caused by HUMANS Michael Hardner
