Why (not) a Covid-19 vaccine?

Why the fuss about a vaccine to prevent Covid-19? How could anyone be opposed? What’s the problem here? 

I’m not an anti-vaxxer. I’ve got my vaccinations, and my children were vaccinated, even though yes, there are some small risks involved, and people have suffered damage over the years, sometimes due to unsafe vaccines (eg swine flu vaccine). But I don’t have a problem in principle with vaccines that are proven safe. 

I choose not to get vaccinated against the flu, because the effectiveness is at best doubtful, and it doesn’t make sense to me to vaccinate against a virus which has in all likelihood mutated considerably since the past flu season, on which virus the current flu vaccine is always based. I will never get that jab. I prefer to rely on my own immune system rather than add yet another chemical I don’t know what else it contains. So thanks but no thanks.

Now there are the Covid-19 vaccines on the horizon. Why am I against those? I’ve done my research. I’ve heard the propaganda like everyone else, but I’ve also listened to some eminent experts who have explained what the deal is with these Covid-19 vaccines. They talk about things you never hear about in the mainstream media. 

The leading vaccine contenders use (very simplified) gene-based methods that are untested and entirely unproven on humans. There is no way, and I mean absolutely no way, that any potential long-term side effects can be excluded. That should be evident to everyone. It would take around 10 years to prove a new vaccination method safe.

What could be the problems? The main concern seems to be that severe auto-immune reactions could result. This cannot be excluded after such a short period of time.
In addition to that, there is also no way the effectiveness of this vaccine can be proved in the real world because the incidence of the virus is generally so low. 

These Covid-19 vaccines are being rushed through the usual testing phases, the normal regulatory requirements are essentially by-passed, which itself should raise the alarm bells. It is also clear to me that pharmaceutical companies and governments are in cahoots and will do anything to make this vaccine the means by which politicians can exit this sorry mess they themselves created. Would they acknowledge any negative outcomes of the trials? I don’t trust either politicians or profit-driven companies to act ethically after the disaster that’s been evolving over the last months.

If my body is damaged as a result, because I’m forced to take such an insufficiently tested vaccine, any compensation I might receive is of no use to me. I’d rather be healthy than receive compensation. Also, make no mistake, any compensation would not come from the pharma companies – they have already been granted immunity, so guess who would be paying for any potential compensation to anyone injured because of these vaccines? Ultimately it’s you, the taxpayer, who has to pay for the negligence of these companies.

So I want to have the right as a human being to say “no”, and not be forced, directly or indirectly, to take a potentially dangerous vaccine.

More fundamentally, why even create a vaccine against an agent that is not even all that dangerous? It should be obvious to anyone by now that this virus is not the massive public health danger as was predicted early on during the so-called pandemic. I’m not going into details now, suffice here to say, no more people have died than during other flu seasons – that comparison is a valid one to make. And the fact that not that many people have died is certainly not because of the foolish and irrational measures governments the world over have taken. It simply is not that vicious of a virus. It can be demonstrated that lockdowns and mask-wearing have had absolutely no influence whatsoever, and there is certainly no proof that these measures have been effective. 

The fact that our civil liberties have been severely curtailed is bad enough. The only conceivable reason why a vaccine is pushed so hard by politicians is that this is the only way they can save face and find a way out of the sorry mess they themselves created. I saw this coming early on, and this is exactly how it is playing out now.

We are being manipulated and coerced, either by a bunch of hapless and incompetent politicians who have collectively lost their marbles, or they are working for the dark and ultimately anti-human agenda which comes under so many different guises: The Great Reset, Green New Deal, Agenda 21, Agenda 2030, etc….

Either way, they are not acting in our best interest. It is up to us, the people, to say “no” and call them out on it, and refuse to cooperate any further.
