The YouTubers who blew the whistle on an anti-vax plot

A mysterious marketing agency secretly offered to pay social media stars to spread disinformation about Covid-19 vaccines. Their plan failed when the influencers went public about the attempt to recruit them.

"It started with an email" says Mirko Drotschmann, a German YouTuber and journalist.

Mirko normally ignores offers from brands asking him to advertise their products to his more than 1.5 million subscribers. But the sponsorship offer he received in May this year was unlike any other.

If 98% of the ‘new cases’ are from the ‘unvaccinated’ how do you pro-vaxx sheep explain the data from Provincetown?

Maybe because people who are paying attention are talking about hospitalizations, not cases?

Twitter inserts support for whatever the democrats want. Example anti-Trump ads in celeb feeds. If they do not want these inserts I bet they are too afraid to say anything.

If you believe the vaccine works, it would reasonably be any of our political enemies.

So the 2% of cases in Provincetown who are unvaccinated are 97% of the hospitalizations in Provincetown!
Right.

Have you been paying attention? Or were statistics hard in college?

Who are they??? It’s the only thing BOTH parties agree on... that we should all get “vaccinated”.

Also... what do we mean by these vaccines “working”?

For the CCP I would say they are working great!

They are bragging now about winning their biological war.

I don't know about Provincetown hospitalizations but I'd be surprised if they had any since they hadn't had a case since June 4th.

If they have any they're probably like the rest of the country - 97% unvaccinated.

"Vaccinated Provincetown visitors and community members who contracted COVID last week only reported mild symptoms, or have been outright asymptomatic."

https://www.westernjournal.com/uk-60-people-admitted-hospital-covid-fully-vaccinated/

The quote of 60 was amended to 40 (or so it seemed) but it wasn’t the 3 percent you and the pro-vaxx shills are trotting out.

Don’t you just hate it when the Brits lie about statistics?

I've been very careful to say "in the US" when quoting the hospitalization statistic.

They've used a different vaccine in the UK whish doesn't seem to be as effective against Delta.

I think vaccinated people are taking too many chances. In Provincetown and elsewhere.

It’s a part-time job keeping up with the news on covid, and not very many people do. The Provincetown revelers were looking forward to this weekend celebration for a long time, and also were probably not aware of the vaccines’ very slight inadequacies, especially against delta. You can’t treat the vaccination like an impermeable shield.

I read that there was only one infected person, and he or she started an outward ring of infections that had reached 256 at the time the journalist wrote that.

I hope the genomes will be studied carefully and we will know more about how it happened, and also whether it was the much more contagious delta variant.

This was a special holiday celebration and people came from all over. The cases are now spread over several states.
