Does that mean you won't when consider explanations that don't fit anti-vaccine theories, eh?
Snip only for brevity.
Does someone that is anti compulsion have to always be construed as anti- vaccine?
Or a mole?
It is that aspect and worse in the media that really troubles me
I am pro freedom of choice on vaccination.
There are some things about the whole sorry episode that sometimes seem not to add up.
The high new infection numbers against the high vaccination rates,for example.
I am vaccinated and boostered.
I believed it would protect me, sorry keep me "a lot safer" perhaps it has.
Although I seem to remember early on in the pandemic, protection, was a word often used.
Today I met two people, say around 50, both fully vaccinated/boostered, and they had both been been pretty poorly with Covid.
I also know people within a single family, one parent vaccinated and the other not.
In their 40's.
They caught it from their school age children. They both had very very similar outcomes, quite poorly and left tired afterwards.
My experience is very limited though wider than two examples.
But London health service staff's experience is not after two years surely?
I am sure people have been "telling" them at length about "misinformation" and "misdirection".
I thought those remarks condescending.
This is not some sort of anti-vaccine diatribe just a few simple observations.
On another thread, a normally notably moderate and liberal contributor wrote:-
""could be meat and drink to the anti-vax brigade, with their campaigns of violence and intimidation"".
I have to say I thought it over the top.
There are a few people who go to extremes in all walks of life but most people just register their unease in more civilised terms. It may not be "politically" correct of course.
It is the lumping of all into the same "dangerous" boat that sets off my warning antenna.
