The measures seemed like a great test of just how far governments could go to control human behaviour on a mass scale. That aspect of the pandemic was more worrying to me than getting Covid. I always knew that it had to go through the population and the vulnerable had to be extra cautious. The vaccines provided hope and extra protection, but that protection proved to be minor later in the pandemic, and there were side effects for some people. We didn’t know the long term effects. 1 Quote

Meanwhile... COVID misinformation led to at least 2,800 deaths in Canada, $300M in costs: report https://globalnews.ca/news/9438436/covid-misinformation-deaths-canada-report/ But wait, there's more! Four years after COVID, misinformation still endangers some Americans... ...Thousands of people across the country are still hospitalized with the disease every week, and some never make it out. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2024/03/15/covid-misinformation-spreads-4-years-after-pandemic/72896725007/ You of course just post squat. So now that we proved your source is completely bullshit, lets go back to the issue. The claim was made that forcing people to get vaxxed was 'not worht it', and your reply was that "MILLIONS' would die otherwise. And you claim there's no evidence that's untrue. So. lets start with your own failed 'research'. They took a model that assumed everyone in canada who was vaccine hesitant or adverse did not get the vaccine. that's not accurate - many hesitant did after being forced but THEY assume nobody did. It's grossly unrealistically high. And they put the number of people dead by that gross exagerration at 2800 people. 2800. Not "Millions". That's in a grossly exaggerated model that doesn't even take into account age. That's a "Worst possible case" kind of thing. So your own post shows that it was NO WHERE NEAR 'millions". It wasn't even hundreds of thousands. It wasn't evne tens of thousands. How stupid are you to post the proof you're worng? There are plenty of other sources too. For example - consider the graph below. From January to about june vaccinations were slowly rolling out - remembering it was a month beteween first jab and second jab when you were actually immunized so the people getting thier first jab in april for example wouldn't have been immunized till somewhere in may or june. So lets look at the impact in deaths over that time. the vaccine SHOULD have meant deaths would go down as more and more people got vaccinated if it worked as you say. Whopsie doodle - they don't. The increase stays in pretty much a flat line all the way along, regardless of what percent of the population is vaccinated. Next up - the point of immunization was to get 'herd immunity' - that magic point where we have enough people immune that the disease won't spread rapidly. The world health org put that at 70 percent. ( https://www.who.int/news/item/23-12-2021-achieving-70-covid-19-immunization-coverage-by-mid-2022_) But - while they note that getting there with vaccines is better than just letting people get infected - the infected are just as immune. A large percent of the people who did not get vaxxed got covid and lived. They are the 'naturally vaxxed'. A high percent of at risk people would have been vaccinated by choice. The people who didn't would mostly have been low risk. And they would have caught the illness (and did) and would have been no different than a vaccinated person. Look at the number of cases over time - those people are all 'vaccinated' wether they got a shot or not, So the evidence is clear. there would NOT have been 'millions of deaths" as you claimed if we had allowed people to choose. You were completely full of shit - i'm right again and you once again posted your own proof that i'm right with your 'report'. Gotcha 8 hours ago, eyeball said: Bullshit.

In the end the disease had to run through the entire population and the vaccine had only minor impact. Early on I understand that we didn’t know what we were dealing with. People always had access to available information and could take measures to protect themselves. The excuse of not overwhelming the healthcare system said more about the weakness of our healthcare system than anything else. Were some measures necessary? Of course, but measures should be measured and often the health and other impacts of these measures weren’t properly taken into account. Many people came away feeling that the government was overbearing and extreme. It exposed the carelessness, slowness, and self-preservation of the authorities. Half the population went along and accepted it all. Half questioned the measures any were publicly denigrated for it. The Emergencies Act really looked bad on the federal government. I think the Trudeau government has done more damage to Canada than any government I’ve learned about in Canadian history. Nevertheless, they influenced enough opinion through media and the bureaucracy to keep half the country on-side, or they did. I think most Canadians want them gone now. What the pandemic taught me is that the Canadian state is too controlling and its constitutional protections are weak. Government should be minimized and stay in its lane of responsibilities. Our government redistributes money from earners and uses it to have a government program for everything, like it or not. They prop up media, threatening the ability to have a free press. They’ve become beholden to radical left special interest groups that favour some groups over others. It’s really damaged Canada’s brand. Even many US Democrats see it. Yeah. OK. 🤦🏼 All history. No need to rehash. Live for today and move forward and make it better instead of wallowing in yesterdays mistakes. I am done with this. A few folks far too absorbed with the past to move forward.

Here are just a few little gems: Why were Chinese scientists working on gain of function viruses at a Canadian bio lab, bringing the research and viruses to Wuhan, and sharing information with members of the Communist Party of China? Why was countervailing evidence on vaccines actively suppressed by media at government behest? When the counter evidence seemed to be true, the language government and media used to describe it changed from misinformation to malinformation, basically information they didn’t like or that disagreed with official narratives. Why were vaccines mandated, especially during the Omicron spread when it was clear that getting Omicron was about as safe and effective against getting further Covid as getting the vaccine? Why are governments able to redact information from being shared with the public when it’s clear that it was government actions that were the greatest threat to national security? Why was the bio lab Covid leak origin of Covid-19 idea actively suppressed? What exactly was being created in our bio labs? Clearly it’s not a secret to our foreign adversaries, so Canadians deserve to know. Why weren’t the non-Covid impacts of lockdowns, mandates and restrictions taken into greater account? Why was the Emergencies Act imposed on peaceful protests? Why were bank accounts frozen? Why does Canada sign onto pandemic and other treaties with international bodies without parliamentary debate or accountability? Damn right we have questions. I don’t want to re-live that nightmare.

By the end of 2022, the program had paid out $2.8 million. One year later, it had paid out $11.2 million. Quite an exponential increase for vax injury funding.

Incidentally, when someone CAN get a payout from the VISP, the payouts are quite small and do not cover the costs incurred by the injured and certainly do not compensate for a death. The 2 I know of who did receive a payout, received less than $200,000 for a permanent disability, so to budget $36 million seems like they are preparing for more or bigger payouts. There is a Canadian father whose 17 year old son died shortly after the jabs, who refused the meager payout offered because it included a cause that he had to STFU about it all and is suing the gov't and Pfizer - Dan Hartman. Will be interesting to see where that goes. Quote "There are two different types of people in the world - those who want to know and those who want to believe." ~~ Friedrich Nietzsche ~~

Goddess Posted April 19, 2024 Report Posted April 19, 2024 One thing I am really starting to wonder about: The difference in symptoms and ailments of those afflicted with covid, compared to the symptoms and ailments of those who have adverse reactions to the covid vax. They are completely different. Covid symptoms/ailments: coughing, fever, body aches, sniffles..... flu-like symptoms. Vax adverse events symptoms/ailments: stroke, brain aneurysm, blood clots, heart attacks, paralysis, blindness, mass skin rashes, anaphylaxis, coma, death. In the first group, the former, we have flu like symptoms. In the second group, the latter, from the vax, we see documented neuro-degenerative symptoms like muscle spasms and paralysis, cardiac issues, fertility issues....to name only a few. It's quite unique in vaccinology how this vax creates issues in sooooo many completely different bodily systems. Why the huge difference if the virus and the vaccine both contain the SPIKE PROTEIN?

I would think simply comparing our experience with that of Americas is all the evidence anyone needs to conclude that 'letting er rip' the way some people around here would have done resulted in them dying at well over twice the rate we did. That's according to John Hopkins too. American deaths per 100000 = 341...Canadian deaths per 100000 = 135 https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality It begs the question how much worse off we could have been if Poilievre had been in charge and we'd left it up the common sense of the common people to get us through the pandemic. With a whole lot less old farts for sure. I get the sense more than a few people think that would have been a benefit. Like I said it probably would have fixed the housing crisis.
