Vaccines

This thought is kind of related to your thread but l analyse everything minutely and found it odd / troubling that a experimental ‘vaccine’ was and has been given to a vast percentage of our population ? I may however be over analysing things relating to this very troubling pandemic period that we have all unfortunately had to go through over the last two years.

That is a very unpopular way to think Don.

I also wondered after being told for 50 or so years that you can't vaccinate against a corona virus because it mutates too fast, just how I should believe that they had managed to perform that miracle in a few months.

So most of the vaccines are based on the spike protein, which the Covid virus needs to get into human cells. Because it needs that spike protein to get into the cells, the spike protein cannot change too much . You could imagine that the spike protein is like a key- it cannot change too much otherwise it would no longer fit into the lock and the virus could not longer infect human cells. Most vaccines are based on this spike protein. 

A lot of the ideas behind the vaccines were already being developed prior to Covid-19 (for example RNA vaccines were in preclinical trials as anti-cancer vaccines) so it is not like scientists just came up with all the concepts from scratch in a few months. 

This is my understanding but I am by no means an expert on Covid-19 or viruses in general and I also have not followed the scientific literature in detail (though I am a scientist myself).

That’s sad to hear Kate, I hope you find ways to recover from this (as we have all been impacted in many different ways by this pandemic). I’m fairly tough skinned but overanalysing this situation had a numbered of negative effects on me also. If anything my spirituality has been the healing factor for me during and after the lockdowns. 

I’ve also done loads of research on this subject and ended up really stressed and unhappy as a result. It’s horrendous the more you look into it. I’ve just ended up feeling really scared about the whole subject. It’s really badly impacted on my mental health.

Thanks for your wisdom and advise. I did a deep dive into all this and my autistic leanings only got me diving ever deeper ! ... when l get passionate about a subject l research the hell out of it. As you said what you uncover can be very unsettling and not all of us are prepared for the truth or to have our eyes fully opened. I burned out on this whole pandemic subject (it’s been scary for everyone). Perhaps my research was a coping mechanism and you are correct in advising caution when looking into sensitive issues as it can end up breaking your will and    skewing our normally healthy balanced opinions. 

That's all well as far as it goes.

I just wanted the right to choose not to be a "beta tester"... 

By Christmas, they were actually starting to talk about segregating the selfish and dangerous unvaccinated people form the rest of society, indeed in Australia they even got as far as dragging people off to camps for refusing to take the shot.

WORSE, The people leading the charge seemed to have changed their minds and public satements constantly.

There are some rather amusing (or frightening, depending on your taste) videos out there where people have sampled Dr Fauchi's and other government/media statements directing us how to view covid-19 and you can clearly see them do 180 degree changes in policy and stated "facts", this did not help me really feel comfortable outsourcing my thinking to them. So I really sent a LOT of time looking into what was going on, and cross referencing known/indisputable facts with the new mainstream or conspiracy theories. 

I came to trust the people behind the great Barrington declaration more than my government, the FLCCC more than Dr Fauchi, and I am sorry to say, I have found many internet strangers more amenable to reasonable conversations about important issues than my family and friends! 

And that last bit to me is far more scary then the virus itself. The virus only can kill me, (If I am really unlucky, according to the numbers) the propaganda techniques used to press the authoritarian side of an issue can divide families and ruin friendships on a vast scale.

FWIW I am still running down the more lurid stories about what is actually in those shots most people took, and thankfully seeing some evidence that the more scary ones are unfounded. When the cancer clusters from fukushima start to get numerous enough to be visible though, (10 to fifteen year incubation period for particle induced radio-cancers) I bet some fool in some media will instantly attribute them to the vaccine..

I get depressed some days at what I find when I look under the rug, it is such a dirty job, but someone has to do it, and the guys we pay to give us the straight and accurate information about current events are doing a lousy job of giving us all the useful information, you will find.. 

PRO TIP. IF anyone is stupid enough to go look into "conspiracy theory" or "Critical Thinking" be advised it's somewhat like "athletic sport" for the mind. If you rush in, you can sustain a psychological injury. I am serious, seen it happen to some people, very publically and embarrassingly just as if I start trying to excercise a lot I'll strain something, unless the neophyte paces themself and eases into that sort of thing.

You need to do it in short bursts with long pauses for reflection, and as soon as you feel yourself feeling strong partisan feelings, stop immediately, and do something else for however many weeks it can take before you regain mental equilibrium. SOME of what we have been taught as kids and as adults is somewhat illusory, and that knowledge is like strong medicine, too much will hurt rather than heal you.
