5-11yo jabs started today, already numerous reports of kids collapsing, but not by the MSM but by witnesses.

My wife faints with any needle. Literally has lie down while the nurse does her thing, then has to stay lying down for ~15 min afterwards or down she goes. Doesn't matter what it is, a vaccine shot, a blood test, just any needle.

First time it happened was when she was at school .... Having one of her vaccine shots.

Getting kids vaccinated is one of the worst fucking things on earth. The stress for parents and kids in the lead up and while administering the injection is horrible. Perfect fodder for anti-vaxers. As it was for me when I was a kid, as it is for my kids, once it's done it's quickly over and they're enjoying their rewards.

You just hope the vaccinator is competent. When I got my then 18 month old his round of scheduled vaccines I visited a GP I'd seen before but I unfortunately learned he was shithouse at administering a row of vaccines to a kid. Four needles in a row - flu, MMR, chickenpox, diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus. While I'm holding my screaming kid down the GP mistakenly pushes an empty syringe into his arm which was left on the desk from my eldest son's round of vaccines given minutes earlier. My poor youngest cops five needles in a row. These days I take my kids to the Royal Children's hospital. The nurses are experienced, unfazed by anything and are great with kids.

Mate do you realise Lifesite News are an ultra conservative Catholic anti abortion advocacy group? The World Council for Health who is linked to in the article is another anti-vaxer misinformation engine masquerading as a reputable global health resource. There's no evidence vaccine spike proteins are toxic, stay in the body and cause organ damage. Don't take my word for it. Local medical professionals you and I would trust to treat us during crunch times of illness, injury, childbirth, etc. will tell you the same thing. No need to rely on an opinion piece written by an anti abortion activist from another hemisphere.

Tomby if you have anxiety and symptoms from getting vaccinated and want answers the best thing to do would be to consult with a trusted doctor or medical practitioner. Write a list of concerns and thrash it out. I don't know if there's a similar service in NZ but in Aus we also have a 24 hour on-call nurse availble for expert health advice. It's called Nurse On-Call in Victoria, something different in other states, but the service is the same.

edit: Tomby, NZ does have a nurse on-call service - https://www.govt.nz/browse/health/publi ... th-advice/

Meanwhile I'm booked for my mandated third vaccine shot tomorrow. How many shots are enough? Nothing new about triple shot vaccines. I've taken my kids to plenty of 'em. Diptheria, Tetanus, Hep B, Pneumococcal, Rotavirus. Three shots each taken months apart.

I just found a webpage that talked about the same micronutrients I was talking about all in one place.
I didn't do research thesis on who wrote it, what their history is, what their beliefs are, and who their associates are.

Calls an article from The Guardian - quoting an actual doctor who works in an actual real life hospital - fear mongering trash, then proceeds to post an article written by a grifter - who once sold tanning beds - stating that life saving vaccines cause dangerous spike proteins to circulate in your body.

But it has some information on micronutrients mixed in with it's anti-science bullshit so it's definitely not fear mongering.

That Guardian article is trash. Total statistical dishonesty. Including the bits you quoted.
It's on the same level as Hazzards 6/13 times more likely to go to hospital schtick at the moment.

You know what? I'm pissed.
t0mby is upset that he's been coerced and bullied into a forced medical experiment.
I just weigh in with some micronutrient information that I happened to have that might help. I dunno.
Then you guys go to town on me.
All the while my wife is dealing with the after effects of the unwanted jabs that she's been coerced into.

t0mby, just stfu, stop taking notice, stop asking questions and just take your damn medicine. it's safe and effective.

Yep, a lot of people are very stressed and upset that they've had to give their bodies over to a medical procedure in order to earn a living, see friends/family etc and the constant messaging is "Just get vaccinated".

For people who are happy to get the shots, there's no problem because they don't feel they are being coerced and bullied.

The problem is that people like tomby feel they have no choice, and it's because they do not have a choice. And he isn't alone in that.

I think what probably also stings a lot of people is that, well, transmission in our shiny new vaccinated economy is at a global high (highest covid rates per capita at present are highly vaccinated Australia and quad-vaccinated Israel), we are seeing disporportionate amounts of vaccinated people still dying...and we have restrictions as far as the eye can see, mandates, covid passports, in addition to staff shortages, Victoria's new Code Brown etc

As an aside, I cannot think of any better term to describe the last two years in Victoria as Code Brown. It's too perfect.

Opposition to mandates is one thing, fear of the vaccine itself is caused by the misinformation shat all over the internet by unqualified fuckwits.

Or perhaps some people have done a risk assessment and are happy to take their chances with a virus they have a 99.98% chance of surviving in the first place.

Considering these vaccines do not reduce transmission, and the sheer bulk of coercion and bullying involved in getting them, you can hardly blame people for raising valid questions.

Considering the volume of censorship going on, considering how the GP's we're being told to see are literally operating with a gun to their head to follow the narrative or be out of work, you can hardly blame people for raising valid questions.

Just today we've had Dan Andrews, glorious leader of The People's Republic of Danistan, go on TV and tell people they aren't doing their part until they've had 3 doses.

I suspect there would be a lot less vaccine hesistancy if, first and foremost, our governments weren't bullying and gaslighting the population into giving their bodies over to them, and if the vaccines actually reduced transmission.

Meanwhile in NSW...

https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/news/Page ... 19_00.aspx
Sadly, NSW Health is today reporting the deaths of 32 people with COVID-19; 12 women and 20 men.

Three people were aged in their 40s, three people were aged in their 60s, eight people were in their 70s, 11 people were in their 80s and seven people were in their 90s.

Of the 32 people who died; 23 people had received at least two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine, one person had received one dose and eight were not vaccinated.

Even a fourth shot of a Covid-19 vaccine is “not good enough” to prevent Omicron, according to a preliminary study in Israel.

Sheba Hospital last month tested a fourth shot given to more than 270 medical workers, with 154 getting the Pfizer jab and 120 receiving Moderna.

The researchers revealed on Monday that both groups showed a “slightly higher” increase in antibodies than after the third shot — but still not enough to prevent Omicron, the latest variant responsible for the vast majority of infections around the world, the NY Post reports.

“Despite increased antibody levels, the fourth vaccine only offers a partial defence against the virus,” said Dr Gili Regev-Yochay, director of the hospital’s infection disease unit leading the study.

The study saw “many infected with Omicron who received the fourth dose,” she said. “Granted, a bit less than in the control group, but still a lot of infections.
OK so when people go for their mandatory 3rd shot, they should just book in for shots 4 and 5 after that.

The 4th one will be this existing one that works, apparently, and the 5th one will be that new Omicron-specific vax that Pfizer are currently working on to replace the one that we're being told already works.

I'm in the wrong line of work, the best business model is this one right here.

Novavax (protein-based vaccine) now provisionally approved for Australia.

Meanwhile the UK are dropping mandates, passports and masks. Australia far too deep into its covid psychosis to follow suit.

I was having a crack at the info source you linked to. Nothing personal and nothing different to you or Candy ripping the Guardian piece that was linked to recently. I didn't have to apply thesis-levels of research either. In literally two clicks from the article page I was on their videos page reading intros like this:
Canadian pro-life activist John Pacheco delivers a searing exposition into how decades of abortion, euthanasia, pornography and other violations of bodily integrity have led to our violation at the hands of 'Big Pharma, Big Tech, and Big State.' Pacheco says our only refuge from the powerful is to return to God.
Most of the material I've seen doing the rounds of 'red pill' people come from sources similar to Lifesite News, shared by people unaware the piece they're linking to is from some hyper-religious, anti-science shitshow they'd otherwise have nothing to do with.

We have a Delta outbreak (French backpacker) and an Omicron strain (brothel blowout). They're using these outbreaks as a controlled live fire exercise to test everything before the inevitable flood after reopening. Seems sensible. He also spoke to the other state premiers for advice beforehand. None have contradicted him. The weak fucking cunt.

I expect the reopening to happen in March based on comments from the Chief Health Officer. But I could be wrong. Extremely unscientific so it should be well received amongst the "my mate sent me this unverifed bullshit" crew here, but a Ch7 Facebook poll (where most of the comments are raging psychopaths from outside WA demanding McGowan's blood) has the delay at a 70% approval rating.

Border closures personally don't affect me much, all of my close family resides in QLD and I work in health so my job depends on my immediate surroundings. So I can understand why most West Australians don't care, but you need to understand that for the people who it does affect that it affects them greatly. My mate's brother in-law who lives in Perth started his pilot career with QANTAS at practically the same time as the pandemic took over. So this Feb 5 deadline meant a lot to him, and they were preparing for this date. Now it's gone and there's no end in sight. My friend who moved to Perth has had a child on New Years day and his parents can't meet her. But that's pretty low-end stuff compared to what others have to go through. This is breaking people, all so old mate in his 90s with several comorbidities can have an extra few months of pain. The image of WA is copping a battering over this.

While I'm here, I'm going to have a rant about Unions, in particular the Teachers Union.

Saying that they don't want to go to work because it's not safe angers me to no end. What on earth makes them any different from anyone else? I have people dropping with COVID around me at work, adults with the virus, not children where their symptoms are milder. Over Summer, all unvaccinated teachers in QLD lost their job and now teachers don't want to front in the classroom anyway? Why did those unvaccinated teachers lose their job then? We punished those who did not think the same for no reason - a political cleansing. That's not the only thing that gets me worked up, but it's the sheer selfishness of sacrificing the development of children because of their own misguided fear.

Into the bin!

Do the people in WA and the leadership really live in that big of a bubble? So he asked the other state premiers for advice lol, is everyone in the Premiers office stuck in 1982 and no access to on demand news and information from around the world at their finger tips? It's going to spread there the same as it has everywhere else no matter what he claims, delaying an opening is not going to make an iota of difference and all they have to do is look outside their state to see the entire worlds copped it no matter what they have done in exactly the same curve.

A controlled test of Omicron protection lol, I love how it's already there despite the hard border and it's going to spread before they reopen anyway so it's all moot but lol.

There's nothing scientific about his hard border or measure he thinks are going to stop a virus magically in his state despite the rest of the world not having found the magic bullet. You actually sound like you work for WA labor with this load of tripe. A live fire exercise, how you gonna spin it to yourself when Omicron jumps the shark before the border opens? If not then after when it hits and you have the same infection curve despite all of the "scientific" measures put in place?
