May 15th, World Wide Rally for Freedom

[fishfood]

As much as it might provide an opportunity to test out the effectiveness of my first COVID-19 vaccination, an event like this might well open the door to extending the current wave of the virus or serve as a transmission ground for a possible 4th wave. You may dress this freedom you seek as some type of political protest, but real freedom will come from eventually putting this virus behind us, something that crowd gatherings have a way of impeding, as they providing an environment to foster the virus' transmission. For the love of freedom call the event to He** Off, until this virus gets done-in. Then if you want to rally for political freedom knock yourselves out. As you might guess I am not inspired to join you, at this point in time common sense dictates it would be stupid to do so.

Going to have to get used to it they are already calling it an endemic. More than likely it's here to stay so we better start getting used to it. Can't keep locking down we need to live with it running from it didn't work.

This is the new flu .

What I find interesting is the fact, that initially the risk of getting blood clots from the AstraZeneca vaccine was pinned at 4 in 1 million, depending on demographics, now seems it has dropped to 1 in 60,000 in Ontario and 1 in 50,000 elsewhere[/I]

They say the risk is worse than covid.
So it's doing more harm than covid to anyone under 60 .

They say if you at low risk of contracting covid 19 don't get the AstraZeneca shot.
Coming right from vaccine board.

I know a lady has been admitted 3 times to the hospital for blood clots in her leg from the shot. She is not interested in the second dose.

Those that plan on rallying for freedom - please take some time to visit the local hospitals in those places and offer your assistance to the nurses and doctors in the ICU. Ask them if they feel your efforts are helping or hindering what they deal with every day.

I agree our government has handled COVID dismally and that Trudeau especially has taken advantage of our situation to further his own position. We can vote him out soon enough but go see for yourself how the GTA hospitals are doing. Ask the nurses and doctors how busy they are and what YOU can do to best help the situation.

Now the truth is coming out. Saw it last night Ontario and I think Alberta stopped administering Astrazenica. I guess there is reason 38 other countries banned it.
Sad how Health Canada approved it without any testing and now its being pulled.

I've been to several protests with 100s of people over the last couple of months.
When I get there I stop at a plaque that bares my uncles name who was killed in WW2. I have a quick chat, pay my respects and promise I'll never forget.
I've done my research, the cabal were responsible for his death then and they're on our doorsteps again now. If you don't believe it, get off your lazy azz and start researching. If that pizzez you off, GOOD, PROVE ME WRONG or .............. ......
Over a hundred thousand rallied in Montreal recently, shaking hands and hugging. WHERE'S THE SPIKE?
Go ahead and keep calling us stupid, your day of judgement is coming!!!!!
Don't worry I'll continue to fight, even for the ones who think I'm Stupid and don't like me.

Look, before I say this ... it's meant to be a joke.

Let's hold the rally/protest inside Walmarts, with our masks on ... there, we are compliant, feel better now?

DOCTATORSHIP ... they are MORONS!

I was like no friggin way I'm getting the AZ shot ... I'll wait for Pfizer thank you.
If I were one suffering from side effects ... I would be suing the government and holding people criminally responsible.
Smell a class action lawsuit coming??

Something I’ve been giving a wee bit of thought to.

JT, the Liberals, health officials, many of those in healthcare have really been pushing “AZ”. While many of them are fully dosed on Pfizer/Moderna.

No “complaints” here, with front line workers being at the front of the line. But it does mean, given their screw ups acquiring vaccines, everyone else would need to wait a hell of a long time.

It also means, those outside hot zones, would need to wait even longer for P or M. In effect potentially recreating what happened to First Nations when Europeans arrived in NA.

With AZ supplies relatively plentiful, and not being gobbled up, they opened the floodgates to the larger demographic and those aged 40+. Those, who are at smaller risk, and those who we could assume are more social. Want to get out and about...basically, the most likely age demographics to be spreading it, and some of whom, will no doubt feel even more able to mingle. I’m vaxxed...

On the airwaves today, the Liberals and officials are making soundbytes. Lots, about 40% of the population now having received a shot.

Makes for good press, given the beating they took fall through winter over their vaccine screw ups.

What better way to save face and votes.

Politically motivated to get as many as possible jabbed, as fast as possible despite risk, and in some ways, perhaps, not as efficiently to protect those at risk.

Great post. This is classic Tru-dough scrambling to deal with yet another screw up in vaccine roll out and pandemic response. It is baffling to me how badly he has done with this since last year - one fall after another, from his deals with China at the beginning of the pandemic to a failure to create our own vaccine solution on Canadian soil. Like a bandaid on a bullet wound...

And to add to that, they relied on the Provincial Governments to actually lobby for vaccines from US and other countries, as well as administer the vaccines. So basically, the provinces did all the work, but Turdeau is trying to take the praise.
