    Vulnerable people should get it. The rest it’s optional.

    How long does this vaccination even work for? Is this permanent or seasonal?
    I believe that it's seasonal. The virus will likely mutate so doctors make new vaccines every year to keep up.

    ^right. I think our culture about vaccines is really fucking stupid. I know you guys are in countries with different health care systems and shit but this is the only medical procedure that is not only 'pushed' on people, but you're vilified for not being interested in. You can be bleeding the fuck out in your own living room and if you don't go to the hospital most americans will understand, but dare tell them you don't want to take a dumb as flu vaccine you you won't get the sniffles and they start sending sense-a block text on how much of an ass you are.


    Good thing only 60% of ppl need to take it or whatever (which makes no sense but cool). I think it's really stupid that instead of trying to become remotely credible with the general public the healthcare industry just sits back and lets random ppl volunteer to pretend they give a fuck for them.

    There's more of a trust for scientists and doctors in Europe than the US. Reason why most in Europe will get the vaccine done. Ofcourse Western Europe, in the East and South things change as people tend to listen to Priests more than they do doctors.

    My wife’s boss, a doctor, is skeptical of the rushed vaccine and prefers to wait. He’s been skeptical of the virus the whole time in terms it’s death rate, and it’s turning out he’s right.

    She was hospitalized with viral double pneumonia earlier in September. They tested for covid 4 or 5 times, all negative. But as precaution they put her on a covid floor and listed her as a covid patient.

    She saw a specialist later and he claims she probly had it earlier in august.

    What do I believe? Which is worse covid or pneumonia? She still has flare ups here and there. It’s a long healing process for her lungs they said up to 6 months.

    I don’t know who to believe. I had 3 different doctors tell us 3 different things.

    She was in the hospital for a day and a half and they sent her home.


    So there are legitimate reasons people can be wary of doctors.

    I hope your wife recovers fully and speedily. Pneumonia can take time to heal, I wish her all the best.

    She’s doing well. She went to the hospital months earlier when she couldn’t breath. In August. They said it was bronchitis. Covid came back clean.

    A month later it’s viral pneumonia, covid clean.

    So, I’m just like, they botched it. Whatever it was, they fucked up.

    Then they tell us, “well wearing the mask probably made it worse”.

    Again, the solution being worse.

    That’s our experience with it I’m sure others have different ones.

    I didn’t get sick during any of this or at least I didn’t show any symptoms.

    I completely know what you're saying. My wife literally delivered our son by herself because the nurses and her doctor were deeply stupid people.

    Something starts 'devastating the world' in like December, by next December that have a vaccine AND are confident it will work on 97% of people. What was the monitoring period for the people(?) they tested it on? lol. Imagine them acting this stupid about pneumonia which is clearly 10x worst than this shit.

    It’s crazy. The ER doctor was literally baffled that it wasn’t covid. He was like in denial.

    Like it can’t just be pneumonia. Originally they said she had bronchitis, then a month later it worsened into pneumonia and they said it was because of the mask wearing. They were all universal on that one. That the mask wearing all day at work made it worse.


    I don’t know man. It’s like going to a mechanic your have no clue you just nod your head and say ok

    I like how they won't tell you disalarming things about Covid because they think the only way to get people to cooperate is making sure they're panicking (which at this point everyone is just pretending to be alarmed, humans can't care about something for 1 year straight).

    Idk if it's like this in europe but the US government and healthcare system is in 0 place to be trusted because, and pretending they know what they're doing when they clearly don't isn't helping anyone. There's 175 billion dollars on the table for hospitals 'on the frontline of corona' and suddenly nobody has any other medical condition except corona and has to be tested like 5 times if that's not what's going on 'just to make sure'.

    because of so many hospital beds being taken up by COVID or possible cases of COVID some other care has been put on the back burner, like tumor monitoring. a colleague of mine fainted in class in February. turned out it was a brain tumor. they were monitoring it and she was supposed to go in for surgery late March. but then the first lockdown happened round here and so many people were in the hospital due to COVID that other treatments and monitoring were ALL ( and I do mean all) postponed, throughout the country. when my colleague went in for surgery mid May the tumor had grown too large and part of the healthy brain was hit during surgery. coma of various weeks, learning to eat, walk and talk again. this week she sent her first e-mail, can walk again but has equilibrium problems and can only eat when being supervised, gels and drinks only. damn.

    It’s nuts. And the politicians and media people have been placing the blame of this situation on “the people” because we don’t follow their rules.(at least over here).

    Which is a lie, I see everyone masked up and really what else can you do?

    They are the ones that made these insane decisions that led to these things, not us.

    Politicians here have been “blaming the people” here as well but they’ve been scoring free kicks by blaming “young people not following rules” which are rules that don’t exist btw oh and when covid first popped off something like 20% of all cases in Australia were directly linked to an infectious cruise ship being allowed to disembark in Sydney and passengers walking around the city and going to other parts of the country, all the governments doing btw because allegedly someone close to a minister was on board that ship. I believe at the time every case in Tasmania was from 1 person off that cruise ship.

    But it’s “the people” causing this btw it’s the fucking flu nobody in any country takes a cold or flu seriously

    Right. Flu cases are supposedly non existent right now, and they say probably because of masks and social distancing.

    But covid cases are skyrocketing? So masks and social distancing works for the flu but not covid?

    Or, most likely, flus and pneumonia’s are being counted as COVID, the same way my girls double pneumonia was counted as a covid case two months ago.

    More covid more Money.
