Is that so? To disagree with me is fine as long as you can present a reasoned argument but after your recent diatribe about how bad the other States were, I'd suggest you just do the smart thing and be quiet while you are ahead.

I binaway so I see I have missed a lot of the fun.
I dunno how we have mixed vaccinations with covid in this thread when we haven't even got one yet, but did you know that covid affects the heart? It seems the media is focussing too much on the initial damage to the lungs and failing to advise people of long term damage to the heart. https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-pers...id-19-patients But wait, there's more. In Australia your chance of having a heart attack after the normal 'flu increases six fold. So anything that saves you from getting the normal 'flu or the Chinese plague should be beneficial in the long term. https://www.yourlifechoices.com.au/h...t-on-the-heart We are getting so much information about covid on every media channel that I fear people will switch off and become blase due to information overload. I am 70 and I have been getting the 'flu injection for a few years now. People should be free to make up their own minds about vaccinations, hopefully if they refuse to get vaccinated they are making an informed decision. |

171 new cases for Australia and 9 deaths sees the CMR rise to 1.934% although active cases dropped to 5,475. NSW recorded 1 case with the balance in Victoria.
11 new cases and no deaths for NZ so CMR is 1.321% and active cases rise to 105. The UK had 1,033 new cases and (supposedly) 2 deaths yesterday for a CMR of 12.806% although we know they are now not counting their mortalities by the WHO guidelines. Just over 45k new cases in the USA yesterday and 1,722 deaths sees CMR rise to 3.099% and active cases drop to 43.0% with the raw numbers rising again. Note that the USA is actually minus one day due to time differences. Other notable points: Australia drops below India for CMR Global cases pass 23M with the last 1M only taking 3 days again; Global deaths pass 800k with the last 50k taking 9 days; The USA completes 74M, India 33M and Bahrain 1M tests; Asia passes 6M cases; South Korea (324), Lebanon (628), Paraguay (684), Poland (903) and Ethiopia (1,829)recorded new daily highs; those in blue for the second consecutive day and those in red for a third or more consecutive day. The graphs below chart the growth in case and mortality numbers globally.

Looks like under 30s have died a grand total of ZERO times from COVID19 in Australia while having a 35% infection rate. Sure there's always the risk, but there's also the risk of getting hit by a car walking across the road, its just minuscule. Less chicken little more risk management principles. EDIT: There's been ONE - so the exception, not the rule, 0.2% of all deaths, but 35% of all the cases. Last edited by Franco Cozzo; 22-08-2020 at 10:22 AM. |

With 8,629 cases in the under 30's (35.6% of all cases) the 1 death is a CMR of 0.018% and 0.2% of all deaths.

We don't know what's going to happen, we don't know a lot about the long term effects of this virus. Perhaps everyone who got infected ends up with heart failure and dies next year, there are indications to show that's perhaps not such an outrageous claim. All I am saying is that it is not responsible to reassure young people that they are relatively "safe" from this virus and to go out and live their lives without a care because you could be sending them to an early death. |

Is VIC's an acronym or an initialism?
Talking of dirty.. which state is the most foul mouthed in Australia? Add to that the capital of murder, torture, cannibalism, bodies in barrels or freezers, bizarre sex serial killings... Why would you want to go there?? |

maybe the conspiracy theorists are onto it, was it Agenda 21 . This may be part of the 'big peoples plan' to reduce population growth, get us all on a vaccine and then feed us whatever they want
P.S, I got the flu jab last year Last edited by Mr_G6ET; 22-08-2020 at 01:46 PM. |

You have made your point, numerous times now. Let someone else have a say. If you keep repeating your point of view over and over again whenever someone has a different opinion to yours I am going to delete your posts. |

Great read from the security guy on twitter. Australia, you're being fed lies and misinformation.

Well your opinion that people are soft because some aren't coping mentally with Covid lockdown is ridiculous and I suspect very reasoned by people not willing to compare with World War 2.

Now substitute tobacco safety research with vaccine safety research. The conclusion is the same. How do I know, the vaccine package inserts state the vaccines don't work and do cause injury or death. Interesting to note there's never been a RNA vaccine released to market. Why's that? It can't be done.
