2. What Americans think about COVID-19 vaccines
Pew Research ^ | May 16, 2023 | BY CARY FUNK, ALEC TYSON, BRIAN KENNEDY AND GIANCARLO PASQUINI

More than two years after the COVID-19 vaccines were widely available for adults in the United States, Americans provide mixed assessments of the value and potential risks of these vaccines.

Overall, a majority of Americans believe the benefits of the coronavirus vaccines outweigh the risks and tend to align with the idea that COVID-19 vaccines have saved millions of lives. At the same time, fewer than half consider the preventative health benefits of the vaccines to be high and more describe the risk of side effects as medium or high than view them as low.

...

There are wide differences between political parties when it comes to COVID-19 vaccination status, as well as differences within each party group by age, consistent with past Center findings.

Overall, 49% of Democrats say they have had a recent booster shot. Another 32% say they are fully vaccinated but have not had a recent booster and just 9% of Democrats say they were not vaccinated. By contrast, just 20% of Republicans say they have received a recent booster shot; 34% say they are fully vaccinated but have not received a booster and 33% say they did not get a COVID-19 vaccine.

...

Overall, Americans are evenly divided over the value of current medical treatments: 49% say medical treatments are worth the costs because they allow people to live longer and better-quality lives, while the same share says these treatments often create as many problems as they solve.

I wrote a song about it to the tune of “Werewolves of London”.

Here goes...

It’s a song called, WUHAN VACCINE AGAIN (sung to the tune of “Werewolves of London”).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvN56FD6-vg (If you want to sing along...)

I saw Klaus Schwab with a Chinese menu in his hand
Comin’ from the WEF in the rain
He was lookin’ for the place called Lee Ho Fook’s
Gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein

Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo
Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo


You might hear ‘em howlin’ around your kitchen door.
Better not let ‘em in.
Healthy young people droppin’ like flies
Wuhan Vaccine again

Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo
Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo

huh!

**** Lead Break ****

It’s the heavy-handed scare
Falsely named Government Healthcare
But it’s actually the Death Protocol nightmare
You better stay away from them
They’ll clog your arteries Jim
I’d like to meet their financier

Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo
Aah-hoo Wuhan Vaccine
Aah-hooooooooooooooo


Wha, I saw the CDC walkin’ with the Queen
Doing the Wuhan Vaccine
I saw Dr. Fauci walkin’ with the Queen
Doing the Wuhan Vaccine

I saw ‘em drinkin’ pina coladas at Trader Vics
Their gig was perfect
Yep!

Aah-hoooooooooo
Wuhan Vaccine
Droppin’ like flies
Aah-hoooooooooo
Wuhan Vaccine

NEVER FORGET what these government werewolves broken free from their constitutional limitations did to them and are trying to do to you.

"Covid vaccines have saved millions of lives"

Think of the countless lives that have been saved by rabbit's feet and St. Christopher medals.

In other news, over 80% of Democrats and nearly 70% of republicans would take a train ride to somewhere safe if the Government told them to.

The last chart seems to indicate “street smarts” (AKA common sense) leads one to believe that the “vax” was not a real good idea.

If you can trust the data, that is.

They’re not vaccines, they are mRNA gene therapy.

So, right out of the gate, lies are being told.

The more difficult a pollster makes it to handily access the methodology of the poll in question, the more likely I am to distrust the poll.

There was many factors in our decision not to get the shot. One that really stood out were the people who advocated everyone getting the shot “for our own good”.

The J&J vax was not MRNA based—and quickly became not available in the US.

---- "...wide differences between political parties when it comes to COVID-19 vaccination status...."

And there it is. The mRNA "event" was in part fueled by, and now measured by, party affiliation. Note the language, which a comment well observed. "They're not vaccines, they are mRNA gene therapy. So, right out of the gate, lies are being told."

The additional conclusion is that those most susceptible to lies are the liars themselves.

A repeated often now, the mortality rate for this event is a demonstrable 0.087 percent, less than one percent over the entire forty + months. A drop in the mortality bucket, but it was oh so useful in installing Biden, the third term of the Obama-Biden team of liars and a corrupt cabal.

This is what makes the political landscape so challenging — especially for Republican candidates.

It’s also why Donald Trump has never changed his tune about “Operation Warp Speed.”

“The J&J vax was not MRNA based”

That is why when it was available I got it despite stories at the time that it might cause blood clots. (Oh, the irony) Anyway, I didn’t want anybody pissing in my gene pool.

THey are not vaccines.

Vaccines create antibodies whichi then attack a targeted vorus.

These are mRNA innoculations that work only in the blood system by instructing our bodoes to produce spike protein whichi does noting but ameleorate tyhe symptoms of Covid 18 with varying degrees of success. depending on the individuials genetic responce.

There is a horror medical museum of all of the side effects of post innoculatory syndomes. Thank god some physicians know how to treat them.

What Americans would think depends on what they hear, or did not hear. What they did not hear is Pfizer was sued, and lost, 20 years ago for presenting fraudulent trial data to support their new product. And they got caught, and paid a huge fine. Today we have a second case of the same modus operandi of lying about test results (most recent maternity) fabricated to satisfy legal requirements.

Fool us once, shame on Pfizer and the Feds. Fool us again, shame on us.

I posted an image of gov documentation ( I think it was FCC) stating that the Covid ‘vaccine’ was gene therapy but would be allowed to be marketed as a ‘vaccine’ to avoid deterring public opinion from the life saving ‘shots’.
