You demand detailed information from one side, but do not decry the detailed lies provided by the other.

I neither advocate for or against people choosing to get the jab for COVID-19, but I do find the lack of honest risk assessment from the pro-jeb side (speaking of the powers that be, not you as an individual) to be concerning.

Regarding a timeline for mass die-offs, I am more interested in learning the machanisms by which they predict the effect, rather than a date. Some are clearly out on the fringe, but others point to known medical phenomena that could cause significant deaths, but which are triggered by unpredictable events (such as an individual catching the flu or a COVID variant, triggering ADE).

I’m watching what the vax pushers in government do and say with a critical eye, as their handling of this pandemic has been less than exemplary, to say the least.

I’m in the wait-and-see camp. More information, although some from all sides will be disinformation, is better. The pro side asserts that the jabs are safe and effective, but they proclaim that vaccinated people still have to social distance, then they don’t, but still wear masks, or don’t, but they should anyway. The anti side proclaims significant risk, and in some cases certainty, of a culling of humanity. Sometimes they present reasoned positions worth consideration, other times they present what seem like conspiracy theories with no evidence.

But 2020 and the first half of 2021 have shown that conspiraciy theories sometimes are true, no matter how outlandish they seem. When no one in a position of authority will allow the truth to be sought, the false have a field day.

And that, too, is a double edged sword.

“The pro side asserts that the jabs are safe and effective,”

They are the unsafest of all vaccines released to date, from viewing the high-level coincidence data.

And they also appear to be the most effective vaccines released to date.

Looks to me like taking the shot, for everyone, is but a roll of the dice...with the odds highly in your favor.

99.9% chance of no side effects. But it sucks to be the one of a thousand.

Well stated. And I don’t recall seeing you posting on many of the threads, either.
