But the initial shot slowed down the spread, and saved the lives of millions. Sorry but we lost some young/middle age friends early in the epidemic.
but now although the number of positive tests remain high here in the Philippines, the death rate is very low even in the slum areas here.
And the strict policy slowed the spread, and allowed time for the covid virus to mutate into a more benign variant: one that is so mild that China decided to stop it's severe quarantine and let everyone catch it to spread herd immunity.
The real problem is that now the elites who want to control your life are pretending that didn't happen, and are still pushing the shot to low risk kids to stop what is essentially a cold. and by the way: There are several different vaccines, and each has a different amount of protection at different times.
Much of the hysteria is about the experimental mRNA vaccine, which works the best, but people worry about what will happen long term.
Even the weak Chines Sinovax, which was made using a manufacturing technique that dates back 100 years, gave 70 percent protection at first, but later only 40 percent protection, which is why China is having an epidemic right not.
And the British and Russian vaccines, which were widely used here in the Philippines in the elderly (because of blood clot issues in the young), uses a helper virus to increase the immune response, a technique that has been around thirty years and is used for vaccines including the Ebola vaccine that stopped two epidemics last year in Africa (that of course the MSM didn't notice).
“it wasn’t a worthless shot. Essentially it stopped the epidemic of the severe form of covid...”

You reminded me of a video...
After being pulled over, the female driver rolls down the car window for the cop standing beside the driver’s door and smoke begins billowing out of the open car window...
Cop; “Ma’am, How high are you?”
Female driver; “...Hi!...how are you?”
The slope of the death curve clearly went up from Dec 2020 to Feb 2021.
New cases went way up during that time period.
Essentially it stopped the epidemic of the severe form of covid, but the virus like the influenza virus kept mutating and reinfecting folk.
Prove it.
BS. My wife and MIL caught it in January before it was made into a pandemic to prevent Trump from being re-elected. They survived just fine.
Sincerely disagree. Glad you are still doing well, truly. It appears the potential dangers of this vaccine are only beginning to surface. As with all drugs, it will take at least ten or fifteen years to know all of the side effects.
What is tragic, is the average age of death from Sarscov2 is higher than the national average age of death from all causes. And yet we pressured young and healthy people to take part in what is tantamount to an experiment.
Cheers - hope you had a meaningful Christmas.
It was announced and sold initially, as being 100% effective and their claims , from this impossibility, went all over the place.
They even engaged in innuendo of coverage when variants showed up.
These guys are full Shiite and liars.
Vaccines Are 100% Effective at Preventing COVID-19 Hospitalizations and Deaths

There is a reason why a coronavirus targeting a receptor (ACE2 receptor) that is widely expressed in lung and in the vasculature has caused severe pneumonitis and vascular thrombosis. Inducing an immune reaction specifically to a ligand that binds this receptor raises concerns. The data suggest those concerns are justified.
I am highly pro-vaccination, when those vaccinations are well designed and clinically vetted. That did not happen with this set of vaccines. We were in a hurry, and there are consequences to that.
Pure, unadulterated propaganda.
It's not hysteria, it's actual concern based on legitimate observations of the detrimental effect of the experimental shot.
It's not a vaccine, regardless of what the CDC changed their definition to.
It doesn't work "best" because it doesn't work at all. It doesn't prevent the recipient from getting or spreading COVID-1984. It doesn't "lessen severity". It doesn't increase their chances of surviving. Apparently it gives them conditions that the pharmaceutical korporations and their government collaborators were determined to censor. It also created a whole new deadly disease known as "died suddenly".
