Past health scandals have apparently seriously cooled Japanese desires to produce / administer vaccines. Instead of confronting past problems head on, they seem to have just shied away.

Chinaâs number might look different if we only counted the products that actually work.

China mass-producing shite again.

I understand perfectly well that youâre spewing common anti-vax nonsense. On one hand, you donât want people to take vaccines because âwe canât be certain yetâ but on the other hand, youâve promoted in another thread the use of drugs that havenât been proven to do anything to prevent or treat COVID on the basis that they have âknown safety profilesâ.
There are no research papers that indicate the spike protein of the vaccines causes harmful inflammatory responses in humans. To the contrary, hundreds of millions of people have received one of the mRNA vaccines and in places where their use is high, cases, hospitalizations and deaths have fallen off a cliff and life is returning to normal.
Iâm in one of those places now and am happier than ever that I made the decision to come back and get vaxxed. If I turn into a zombie 5 years from now, Iâll be grateful I had 5 years of normal life not popping ivermectin and fluvoxamine daily, purchased online from some dude in India, to ward off the COVID spirits.

I wouldnât take them daily. Maybe a nine day course if I happen to test positive.
And I fully support vaccines.
Jesus, you are super disingenuous.
Mackay has to be the most frustrating hospital to get in touch with. Every time âthe number you have dialed is busy please try again laterâ
At least put me in a queueâI usually hate queues, but itâs better than having to redial and get the same message every 10 minutes.
So youâre going to test yourself for COVID every time you get a slight tingle in your throat, start coughing, or feel fatigued? You also do realize that those toxic spike proteins from the virus could be running through your veins without you developing any noticeable symptoms, right?
Btw, are you a medical doctor? Because itâs interesting that youâd prescribe yourself âmaybeâ a 9 day course. Sounds super scientific.
Just not the COVID vaccines. Seems to be a common refrain from a particular group.

Are you trying to book your second injection? From what Iâve heard, today is the first day you can do that. Phones are probably overwhelmed.
Iâm interested to see how this goes. Iâm getting conflicting messages as to whether those of us who have had our first shots are eligible to get second shots from among this Japanese donation.
Been a while since it was mentioned, but more vaccines should be coming from Japan.

Yeah, mine is pencilled in 22, but wanna try and confirm it. But itâs proving difficult.
Surprised they donât have a dedicated number instead of going through the general call line.

Irrelevant. They can and do get sick; they can and do spread the virus to other people, including older, more vulnerably people. And yes, some children and young people have actually died of Covid.
5 days ago, they said those people would not be included this time, iiuc and iirc.

I got through at last.
And the person I spoke to was about as useful as Anne Frankâs drum kit.
âIâm phoning up to book my second vaccineâ
âNot avaiableâ
âOk, I donât want it today. I had my first jab, my card says 22nd.â
âDonât knowâ
âWill vaccines be available by the 22ndâ
âDonât knowâ
âDo you know when I can phone up and book?â
âDonât knowâ
âWell, are the Japanese vaccines being used for the 2nd jabâ
âDonât knowâ
âI thought we were meant to book our second jab on the 15th or afterâ
âDonât knowâ
Cheers

No, if I present little or no symptoms I have nothing to worry about. If I start having severe symptoms, Iâll start my course immediately and go get tested. If itâs somewhere in between, Iâll make an informed choice. I feel pity for people like you who seem unable to think for themselves. You seem to think everything is black and white. There is always trial and error and many shades of grey. If not, why would doctors prescribe off label?
No, I tentatively prefer the subunit vaccines. Once again you prove unable to argue in good faith, always deliberately posting things I did not say or posting false equivalencies. Iâm done responding to you.
Cheers

So you rail against âexperimental vaccinesâ that are licensed to prevent serious illness and death from COVID but encourage off-label use of various drugs to self-treat COVID? Makes sense!
Yes, anyone who chooses not to buy into misinformation peddled by fringe lunatics and anti-vaxxers must be a sheeple!
Funny thing is Iâm sitting here vaxxed in a place that reopens to normal life later today while youâre holed up in TW talking about buying ivermectin online from India (what could go wrong?). Please donât pity me too much.

the person was honest. The central authority has not decided those things yet, except that it is not avairable right now.

Could have been a bit more informative than âdonât knowâ. Donât know is nothing. If she answered âthe central authority has not decided those things yetâ then that would be fine.
But dont know could mean she personally doesnât know, the hospital doesnât know, nobody knows, she doesnât understand what Iâm talking about, she thinks Iâm trying to book a first vaccine etc.
