Or are you just picking and choosing which health issues are important as it fits to your narrative? Sounds like we need better regulations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote In 1977, the U.S. federal government set up the Childhood Immunization InitiativeTrusted Source aimed at increasing vaccination rates in children against the seven diseases for which vaccines are routinely given in childhood, including: diphtheria measles mumps pertussis poliomyelitis rubella tetanus This is when all 50 states widely adopted mandatory school vaccinations. So it's not like vaccine mandates are some new concept. The problem is social media wasn't a thing in 1977. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spend a lot of time reading, researching, learning and bettering myself on a day to day basis and it's reflected in my overall success, friendships, relationships, and my overall health. It's fun to watch this board. It's like Modest Mouse album "good news for those who like bad news". Fear porn. fear drives people to do weird things. unfortunately a lot of you are caught up in fear. Its funny that the group which is scared of a vaccine would use a term like "fear porn". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does it's point of origination affect whether you will or will not vaccinate Because of the "lie" that can be unearthed if this came out of a lab, say in Wuhan. That would mean the reasons reported as how the virus came about were lies (from animals) and when lies are unearthed, all the distrust and anger that I mentioned in my post result.

Shouldn’t the focus be more on beating the pandemic rather than poking around the bat versus lab theory? That’ll be investigated and it may never be known. 2. Even if a doctor or health care provider responded to the reactions people had, do you think that would convince them to get the vaccine? 3. It’s near impossible to have calm discussion on anything from vaccines to policy and I’m not sure what is going to fix that. I don’t think it’s going to get fixed since the volume was turned up and now either human beings discuss things over message boards or Facebook or try and talk about things in person, although most people probably avoid doing so in person. I think it matters where it originated because if it's in a lab, it points out the place where lies began regarding COVID. A lot of the unvacced don't trust anybody and it starts with the first lie (if there is one re. origin). 2. No, but if politics were never involved maybe doctors and health care providers and scientists who the anti vaccers don't trust (Fauci) might have been more believable. Trump, Biden, Kamala, Fauci all have said some pretty despicable things through the last 2 years. 3. Maybe we need a viable third party in government. There's talk Yang is starting one. Like Bill Maher said last night we talk politics too much (watch his great interview on Kimmel). We're too engrossed with politics now (it started when Trump came on the scene sparking unabashed anger from the Behars of the world and turned into derangement almost) and we need to stop talking politics 24/7 or close to 24/7 when we're not looking into what's happening with our fave sports teams. I really like Maher at times. Edited September 17, 2021 by greg775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If an anti vaxxer finds out it started in a wuhan lab, that would show the anti vaxxers there have been lies from the beginning. It would tell them, "I knew it. I trust none of those liars.

Kyyle23 Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Why is that funny @greg775? I have asked you how it will change anything going forward for you if you knew it originated in China and you gave me some gobbledygook answer about how you would tell unvaccinated people that it all started in China. How does that help you? You have wanted to blame China for it from the beginning, I don't care if you do or do not. If you want to lay it at their feet, by all means do so. The question is still there. If you feel like an honest answer not full of anecdotal crap, please do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if the Chinese built a military grade viral weapon, and the Trump administration was dumb enough to believe the Chinese had this under control as a natural entity, while the Biden administration was dumb enough to believe the Trump administration, it changes the work that people completely independently of that did on a vaccine?
