Now, a study calculates for the first time how much of Covid waste (29,000 tons) is ending up in the oceans and what it is doing once it gets there.

The Covid pandemic has led to an increased demand for single use plastics that intensifies pressure on an already out of control global plastic waste problem,

EU just bought 60 mio doses Valneva (that inactivated vaccine)

An interesting alternative for those sceptics who don't want any genetic changes....

These doses are for this year, next year another 27 mio doses are on the line, 2023 further 33 mio!

The delivery should start in April 2022...

Why are they buying vaccines this far into the future?

Just being prepared or settling into the new regular injection way of life?

Probably.

new regular injection

Not that new. Flu jabs change yearly.

Indeed.

Not that new. Flu jabs change yearly.

And are not usually mandatory.

I'm in favor of anyone who wants the vaccination to get it. Those who are high risk (elderly and those with certain conditions) should be encouraged. I'm 100% against vaccine mandates and passports.

But the vaccines are 'leaky' and overuse runs the risk of a Marek's scenario....

jon357

And are not usually mandatory.

Since influenza is something society is used too. Nevertheless, the flu booster is recommended for people over a certain age and in civilised and affluent societies is free to them

overuse runs the risk of a Marek's scenario....

This is doubtless something the NHS have considered.

You are a very trusting soul. If the last couple of years have taught us anything.... it's that those in charge are largely incompetent and alienated from the public they are supposed to be serving and do not think of possibilities that are blindingly obvious to informed bystanders.

The technical term is "elite failure" where the governing class is simply not up to the job and instead concentrates on its own security and the acquisition of assets.

They never have been. The public health doctors do know what they're talking about though and don't shy from confrontation with politicians.

As socialists have been saying as loudly as possible for 2 centuries. But hey, Boris has tousled hair and a nice smile and Melania has big tits.

23 million COVID doses administered. 3,100 injury claims filed. $0 paid out.
You will now hear the Vaxxer gods say, that is a small amount of injuries.....yeah, small amount UNLESS you are one of them that have been injured, Right. nlol

And five or ten years down the road who knows what may happen from these EXPERIMENTAL VACCINES that we are being FORCED to get.

The same. I got mine as soon as the NHS sent the invite and was pleased to have it.

No 'nanotubes', no 'unknown life forms' and sadly I don't get 5g from it either.

one tenth of one percent is not something to panic over. Tragic yes, but the lives saved are more important in the end.

Tacitus

Better safe than sorry

But you are not "safer" if you refuse the vaccine... hundreds die each day needlessly because of this.

Wessis are easier than Ossis

Perhaps some are, but it seems that quite a lot of Ossis are suffering from some sort of PSTD after living under a dictatorship for so many decades. Those have not yet full internalized that they now live in a democracy and under the rule of law. In some way it is tragic, but it is also making our life together in a democracy more difficult.. if you start seeing a democrqtic government you disagree with politically as illegitime, and perceive every argument in support of them as lies and propaganda, you are on a path to ruin... your own or that of your country. Even if the government were to lie to us, we still habe independent institutions like the STIKO who make their recommendations and have proven themselves to be sometimes more careful than the government would like. And don't give me any "Those experts are bought or can be forced to agree with the government... Those guys have tenure and secure pensions as long as they do not do what some people accuse them off (being bought by pharmacy). Maybe one or two could risk it, but hardly the majority.

Speaking of vaccines and democracy, being a mature citizen requires one to make informed decisions which includes knowing what information can be relied upon and where our own short-comings are. Most of us have little to no idea how vaccines work in detail, let alone having conducted our own research. In that case, like in any others that are beyond our expertise, we have to trust what recognized experts say... and I would argue that being a mature citizen should make it possible for one to say that maybe, the dentist ranting in youtube videos is not equally reliable as e.g. the head of the Robert-Koch-Institute and his peers.

....especially those who think they are really safe now, for them this pandemia is over after their two shots + booster and have fun indoors without masks!

Those have not yet full internalized that they now live in a democracy and under the rule of law.

You don't forget what you have once learned...my beloved grandmother (Gott hab sie selig) always called the "Berliner Zeitung" of the GDR still "Völkischer Beobachter" till her death, heh:)

and I would argue that being a mature citizen should make it possible for one to say that maybe,

That's me...."maybe".....I'm just cautious!

But

Can I offer a piece of advice? It isn`t the best idea to remove the nick of the poster from the quote. First of all, it costs you time. Secondly, it makes it difficult to track the discussion between you and your interlocutor. I read your nickless quote and started looking who you quoted but after a few posts I gave up not only looking for that poster but also reading your post coz it is senseless when certain links are missing. I suppose some other readers might act similarly. Think about it that you might lose forum readership practically for nothing or for some fancy.

I wasn't forced, and no one I know was forced either.

Thats because you are self employeed.
If you want to keep your job here in teh U.S.A. then you were "forced" like several of my friends were.
They had rent to pay and families to feed so they were "forced to" or live on the street like a dog.

one tenth of one percent is not something to panic over. Tragic yes, but the lives saved are more important in the end.

I have no idea what you are trying to convey here.
What 1% and what lives in the end ?
Please try me again.

@Bratwurst Boy

especially those who think they are really safe now,

Those are tragic, but significantly less numerous than those who die unvaccinated despite belonging to a much larger group. Again, simple math. Not to mention that the number would be even smaller if everyone was vaccinated and thus less contagious themselves.

I'm just cautious!

It is hardly cautious to decide to take a much, much bigger risk. For that equation to work you would have to get through the pandemic without getting sick or without any serious symptoms and the vaccines would have to cause tens of thousands of deaths and hundreds of thousands of lasting side-effects that are still unknown down the line in Germamy alone... something that is completely unprecedented in modern vaccination medicine.

Can I offer a piece of advice?

Thanks for the advice, I will have to lool up how to add names to the quotation.

@johnny reb
You stated 3100 injury claims. I did not state deaths, but lives saved. If there are only 3100 injury claims it is just over one tenth of one percent. While tragic the vaccine has saved millions of lives.

The German CDC (Robert Koch Institute or RKI) no longer claims that the vaxx protects from infection or even hospitalization:

Creeping asuterity! The British government is clearly not interested in maintaining the NHS and this kind of disruption will be more and more common until most people just don't bother and go private....

The current ruling party aren't. This may well be their downfall since they rely on votes from the over 60s (who are conspicuously pro-vac).

Neither is labour (as you will find out) the left in the US has been completely coopted by the austerity machine and cheer schools closing and scream for rationed care.

Can the UK be far behind?
