What do you hooligans think about this?
I got my az shot 2 and half weeks ago, and am looking forward to my personal zombie cocktail that awaits me
Ya I said from the very start of the first vaccine being brought to market that citizens were being used as guinea pigs, in real time.
I do not say that to be reactionary. I am not even saying that is wrong. It is just reality.
Big Pharma and the CDC say 'no short cuts were taken, things were just done in parallel' but that is simply not true. But I understand why they feel they have to say that otherwise many more people would be too frightened to take the vaccines.
Gov'ts and the CDC etc, simply made the CHOICE and BET that the 'still' unknown risks of the vaccines were less than the known risks of Coronavirus. And in terms of weighting 'risk' I do not disagree.
There is a reason why prior vaccines would typically go through years of trials before being approved and it is not solely the lack of a 'Trump' pushing. It is because one of the best 'discovery' factors of trails and testing is 'Time'. You cannot short circuit time. And time, in some cases will reveal some things that a lack of time did not.
So if 'time' is a factor is an issue, instead of seeing adverse events in small test populations, as part of 'trials' we are going to see those adverse events play out in a majority of the population.
'Time' would allow them to test, mixing vaccines and determine if it 'better', 'worse' or 'neutral'. 'Time' would have isolated out the Allergy risk which we saw play out in real time instead. "Time' exposes a lot.
But again, with a very real deadly risk (the virus) active I understand and agree with the gamble chosen. If someone is shooting at me with a gun I am going to grab whatever I can in the hopes it can stop the bullet. I am not going to wait until it is tested and proven.
I just wish society was mature enough that gov't and the CDC could give us the full truth, Winston Churchill style, and still get the compliance they needed.
