Covid vaccine imperialism

Back in March, there were calls from some leaders in the global north to cancel Africa's debt, to help them during Covid. But instead, the global north helped screw Africa even more, with lockdowns disrupting the extremely delicate and unequal global economy, which has massively fueled poverty and hunger in these countries that remain virtually enslaved to the north.

And what are we doing now? Are we going ahead with debt cancellations, given that things are even more awful for them now than they were in March? It doesn't look like it. 

Instead we're going to encourage them all to get vaccinated with experimental vaccines that lack long term trials, and that the vast majority of people - particularly in much of Africa, where Covid has had little impact - do not need!!!

Isn't this all extremely disturbing?

COVID19 Vaccine Questions

How have 100% safe vaccines been developed in eight months, when previous vaccines have taken a minimum of four years, and most take over 10 years? Especially given that Covid vaccines will be the first ever mRNA vaccines. How can we know of any potential long term health impacts when there have been no long term trials? Isn't the long-term possibility of 'Antibody-Dependent Enhancement' a very serious concern? 

Why have the pharmaceutical companies sought (and been granted) exemption from vaccine liability claims? 

Is it true that, once their trial was over, Pfizer vaccinated all volunteers who received a placebo during the trial? If so, did they do this to prevent us from being able to analyze the long term impact? Also, their vaccine needs to be kept at an extremely cold temperature (colder than most freezers). What happens if freezers malfunction and they're not kept at this temperature?

Are the vaccines actually designed to stop infection, or just reduce symptoms? If the latter, isn't vaccinating people just going to lead to contagious asymptomatic carriers, (given that we're told asymptomatic people are contagious)? 

How long will partial immunity from symptoms, gained from these vaccines, last? Can't we enable and encourage people to do other things to reduce their chances of symptoms? Like addressing Vitamin D deficiency, for e.g.

How can we know how vulnerable groups will react to the vaccine, when it hasn't been tested on them? Many healthy trial volunteers have had quite bad side effects - if this was the reaction in the healthy, what might it be in the unhealthy? And aren't vaccines mostly ineffective on vulnerable groups anyway? (Given this, why has there been no effort to improve the overall health and immune systems of the vulnerable?!).

There have been two serious neurological events during the UK trial for the AstraZeneca vaccine, and one in India. What investigations have been done to prove that this was unrelated to the vaccine? 

Having been spreading around the world, for nearly a year, isn't the virus now mostly endemic, with a significant degree of population immunity already reached (and seemingly already present)? Why is mass vaccination needed? Especially in many countries (like much of Africa) where the virus has had barely any impact whatsoever? Why must we vaccinate billions of people because of a virus that has been less deadly, to under 70s, than the flu? Surely, if there is a safe, effective vaccine, it just needs to be given to vulnerable groups, (like the over 70s)? Though, as mentioned, I don't think it's been trialled on them? 

Will authorities be testing whether or not people have antibodies/T-cell immunity before they’re injected with a rushed, experimental vaccine? Do we know that it's safe to vaccinate those who've already had the virus and who now have natural immunity? 

Do we know how the vaccine will interact with all other vaccines, and medications? 

How can there be an effective vaccine for a virus that is constantly mutating? (It has mutated thousands of times).

How can we trust 'the science' from extremely criminal pharmaceutical corporations? Ditto the highly corrupted government agencies that will regulate them?

Why am I expected to get one of these rushed vaccines, to maybe lesson my chances of symptoms? Can't I just let my reasonably healthy body do what the human body has been doing for thousands of years?

As mentioned earlier, why are we putting all our hope into rushed and experimental vaccines, rather than on addressing the root causes that lead to susceptibility? Poor metabolic health, nutrient deficients, toxicity. There is so much evidence that Vitamin D deficiency is a significant contributor to susceptibility. Why is there talk of mandating vaccines, but no talk of mandating that we all ensure we have optimum levels of Vitamin D? This would be very cheap and easy!

All medical procedures involve risk. Where there is risk, there must be choice. I hope we can all agree on this?

Are we going to be told of the ingredients of the vaccines before they're administered? And will we be seeing peer-reviewed science about them all?

However small, don't we need to completely rule out the possibility that these vaccines will affect fertility? Pfizer vaccine info: 'It is unknown whether COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 has an impact on fertility.'

Is our entire approach to viruses based on very outdated science?

Is it true that Pfizer's '90% effective' vaccine requires 256 people to get vaccinated to benefit 1 person?! Is it not very misleading to only report the relative risk reduction, and not the absolute risk reduction? And is the relative risk reduction actually 29%, not 90%? 

People with a history of severe allergic reactions were excluded from Pfizer's trials. Why were people not informed about this before the vaccine was rolled out?! There have been two bad reactions to the vaccine on one of the roll out. 

Are lots of people allergic to PEG?

“The mRNA vaccines do reduce mild to moderate cases of Covid.” - how were they able to determine this when 90%+ of infected only get mild, to moderate symptoms or are asymptomatic anyway?

What about the risk of 'immune escape'?

Covid update: UK Lockdown makes no sense, and vaccines won't save us

The strategy of 'lockdowns until we get a vaccine' makes little sense, and seems extremely short-sighted, to me.

Read: Early Vaccines Will Prevent Symptoms, Not Virus.

Couldn’t we prevent symptoms by addressing nutrient deficiencies and poor metabolic health; by enabling and encouraging everyone to eat reasonably healthily; by transforming the industrial food system that fuels disease and susceptibility whilst also destroying the environment; by healing people and planet?

Instead of imposing devastating lockdowns, and spending $billions/trillions on rushed, crap vaccines, put out with no long term trials, that haven't been tested on vulnerable people, from some of the most criminal corporations, that require a genocide of sharks and crabs and the destruction of ecosystems? All because of a virus (which is mutating!) that has had an approx 0.05% fatality rate for under 70s?! (The fact that we've poisoned our bodies and the environment so much, yet Covid is only leading to a tiny % of deaths, really shows how amazing our bodies are!). 

What is happening in the UK?! The government has announced another nationwide lockdown. Here are some reasons why this seems to me like an absurd decision:

  • Cases are leveling off, apart from in a few places. 
  • Arn't hospitalizations/deaths from viral infections at their norm at this time of year, but higher only in certain areas? (Beware media fear-mongering). 
  • PCR tests are crap; a positive test is not a 'case'. The inventor of the test advised against its use. (Is anyone who tested positive who then dies of something else, being registered as a Covid death?).
  • Is the pandemic actually mostly over and now endemic? Is it really possibly to know, given unprecedented mass testing for one virus, and given that much increase in death could be due to unprecedented shutdowns of society?

The strategy of protecting and healing the vulnerable, whilst letting everyone else go back to some kind of normal as we reach 'herd immunity', sure makes more sense to me than the current strategy of harming everyone with lockdowns until we get potentially unsafe vaccines that don't stop infection. Population immunity seems to be happening, just as it has done with new viruses for thousands of years! But is this being ignored because Big Pharma is so invested in vaccines? Are Big Pharma, and Big Food, running the show?



As expected, terrorism returns

Europe and the US just spent years supporting sectarian extremists as they rampaged through Syria; ethnically cleansing, enslaving women, decapitating children. Once again, the west sided with Saudi Arabia, barbarism, and chaos, for the benefit of a few corporations and an economic system in need of perpetual growth.

Chickens are now coming home to roost and we should expect quite a bit of terrorism in the coming years. (Though the threat will be exaggerated). 

Great for racists, and great for those corporations/oligarchs/politicians in need of justification for taking away more freedoms, so that the system and profiteering can continue. (Not that there’s many more freedoms to take away right now!).

US support for the Mujahideen in the 1980s, including for Osama Bin Laden, resulted in 9/11. Now, history repeats. Will the cycle of violence ever end?

We now have the double whammy threat of terrorism AND evil viruses, to justify keeping us under strict control. Any chance we could start getting to the root of all these issues? The economic system... centralisation/concentration of power... oligarchy... separation... disconnection from nature...
