COVID vaccines: time to confront anti-vax aggression
Nature ^ | April 27, 2021 | Peter Hotez

Posted on 05/06/2021 2:04:16 PM PDT by Wallace T.

Nearly one billion COVID-19 vaccine doses have been delivered in less than six months, but anti-vaccine disinformation and targeted attacks on scientists are undermining progress. These threats must be confronted directly, and the authority and expertise of the health community alone aren’t enough to do this.

Efforts must expand into the realm of cyber security, law enforcement, public education and international relations. A high-level inter-agency task force reporting to the UN secretary-general could assess the full impact of anti-vaccine aggression, and propose tough, balanced measures. The task force should include experts who have tackled complex global threats such as terrorism, cyber attacks and nuclear armament, because anti-science is now approaching similar levels of peril. It is becoming increasingly clear that advancing immunization requires a counteroffensive.

It is ironic that the same people who believe that abortion is a woman’s choice and that minors can be castrated and given puberty blockers are pushing the vaccines/

Trump was the best President since at least Reagan. However, as much as I disagree with his position, Trump never advocated mandatory vaccinations. As for the Nation of Islam, even a broken clock is right twice a day. Not a desirable co-belligerent, but remember the U.S. supported authoritarian rulers like Pinochet against totalitarian Communists.

So China is doing the Andrew Wakefield thing: propagandizing against a vaccine to pave the way for its own vaccine.

I see. So aggression is deciding for yourself that you don't want a foreign bio-agent in your body. Fighting this type of aggression means punishing people who espouse it. Apparently, "aggression" has a new definition these days.

This guy was obviously trained in the George Orwell School of Medicine. It's only a matter of time before he gets the Josef Mengele Chair of Humanitarian Medicine.

Maybe people will “believe in science” when it’s not dictated and written by Communist politicians... and you can’t forget the Teachers Unions as well.
When science dabbles in Cow Farts it has become pure Bull$#!t.

A. I got over Marsha in 1974

B. At least some are vaccines. Especially the ones derived from aborted fetal cells. Not sure about the RNA variety. Why are you asking me?

C. Thanks for asking

Good luck to him. I’m sure he’ll be directing from his ivory tower.

You knew it was coming. It’s here on FR. We cannot be allowed to agree to disagree. It’s war on freedom of thought and couscous. It’s on FR daily.

They will make you bow to their will. This isn’t even the end game, this is the beta beta test. You will all either bow or be targeted. I’m not saying it pro or anti vac just if you support people’s freedom to choose. If your ready to force people on either side of the debate your with them - the authoritarian control freaks. Think people - please think. Pray for wisdom. I need it, you need it we all need it.

“Let’s see what happens to the vaccinated a year from now which includes the horrific side effects some are experiencing.”
************************************************************
Hmmm… it’s now “a year from now” (which would be over two years since the first of the trial vaccinations of the mRNA vaccines). That’s better than the six months the anti-vaxxer propagandists started with. And just like the global warming lies, the predictions will be continually “slipped” as time goes on.

China IS behind a vaccine disinformation campaign:

Refusing the covid shot does not make one an anti-vaxxer. That’s two very different things.

Some of us have grown into anti-vaxxers very in the last two decades

Only been on the vaxx for about a year so you’d need another year to see the total effect.

“And you’re trolling by calling those opposed to the mRNA jabs “anti-vaxxers.””

Antivaxxers are against traditional vaccines also.

So, no.
