Stop with the Nuremberg crap. It is both offensive. And uneducated.

That links to actual studies and numerous times the lame stream media pushed opinion pieces supporting the clot shot and lock downs as news and vaxxers used those to propagate the lies themselves.

Misinformation #1: Natural immunity offers little protection compared to vaccinated immunity

Agreed that this is false.

Note:

"Most Americans who were fired for not having the COVID vaccine already had antibodies that effectively neutralized the virus, but they were antibodies that the government did not recognize."

Really? How do they know that?


Misinformation #2: Masks prevent COVID transmission

Agreed that such a claim is false.

I do believe that masks can train people to not bring hands to their mouth (other than to eat - haha) and nose (maybe cut down on nose picking).


Misinformation #3: School closures reduce COVID transmission

Probably not. Social distancing does work, but being a hermit and recluse is counterproductive to living a normal life.


Misinformation #4: Myocarditis from the vaccine is less common than from the infection

Don't agree - yet. gas_dr addresses this.


Misinformation #5: Young people benefit from a vaccine booster

Yep, not true.


Misinformation #6: Vaccine mandates increased vaccination rates

Sadly, I do agree with this. Especially when people are forced to choose between job and vaccination.


Misinformation #7: COVID originating from the Wuhan lab is a conspiracy theory

Yep, pure kookery.


Misinformation #8: It was important to get the second vaccine dose three or four weeks after the first dose

Yeah, there was disagreement on this early on. Canada had recommended to increase the interval
-see https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/naci-interval-advice-change-four-months-1.5934563


Misinformation #9: Data on the bivalent vaccine is ‘crystal clear’

That snippet is from one person.


Misinformation #10: One in five people get long COVID

Unsure - seems high. Anecdotally know of two people that are suffering from long COVID. One in Japan and one in US. One in US was a long distance runner, very fit. He got COVID-19 in Fall 2020 and he's still recovering.
