You're actually swallowing this bullshit? Jeez.What's your issue with The Great Barrington Declaration? It's supported by tens of thousands of medical health scientists and practitioners.
Show me something that is fake on the Pandata website.
You're actually swallowing this bullshit? Jeez.
But please, no more of this inane bollocks on a science-based thread. Thanks.
Oh and you can educate yourself here 5 failings of the Great Barrington Declaration's dangerous plan for COVID-19 natural herd immunity
A very flimsy dismissal.
1. It creates a false dichotomy. The declaration rhetoric offers a false choice between a wholesale return to our pre-pandemic lives (which is objectively dangerous) versus a total lockdown (which no one advocates). Across Canada, schools, daycares and businesses are open and we are providing health care for patients who suffer from non-COVID-19 diseases.
People are advocating a total lockdown. This has happened in multiple countries and in some it still continues.
The NHS now has a massive backlog of patients. Many are still can't get appointments with their GP because Covid has been prioritised over every other illness.
2. The Barrington declaration gives oxygen to fringe groups.
What's wrong with allowing people to voice other opinions? Science is not a constitution, if evolves over time and should be debated.
3. The Barrington declaration puts individual preference far above public good. The declaration advocates that, “individual people, based upon their own perception of their risk of dying from COVID-19 and other personal circumstances, personally choose the risks, activities and restrictions they prefer.”
Yep. Freedom of choice.
4. The declaration misunderstands herd immunity. Herd immunity occurs when a large enough proportion of the population has immunity, usually more than 70 per cent.
It does not misunderstand it. Natural immunity is not taken into account. The government should be testing everyone for antibodies.
Why is natural immunity such a taboo subject?
5. The declaration offers no details on how it would protect the vulnerable.
It does. Shield those that are most at risk.
The injections do not prevent transmission, illness or death in all cases. Double jabbed people are still catching Covid, getting seriously ill and dying.
Reaching herd immunity through injecting people isn't working out very well for Israel is it?
It has never been claimed they will prevent all transmission, illness or deaths, just substantially reduce the risks.
If you think otherwise, perhaps you can explain that with an average 40k cases a day in the UK now, there's an average of 120 deaths per day, whereas with the same level of cases back in January we were seeing around 1,200 deaths per day. In case your maths is not very good, that's a massive reduction of 90%.
From a peak of 60 deaths a day back in January, during a lockdown, they are down to 9 a day now, with almost all restrictions lifted, it would seem to be working.
A couple of issues with the above argument.
1 - There are fewer vulnerable people now than before as many died this past winter. We had a few warm winters proceeding the first wave in Feb 20 which meant an excess of those at risk, hence the high death rate.
It's called 'harvesting'.
2 - You're not comparing like against like. Jan vs Oct is not a fair comparison.
Respiratory illnesses are much more common, transmissable and deadly during winter months.
"Harvesting"? REALLY?A couple of issues with the above argument.

Well their attempts to wind up members of this forum over a decade ago werent very impressive either. Dull shit about the loony left on this forum and how he hates Ken Livingstone so much that he'd be happy to vote for Johnson, complaints about people laughing at Johnson falling over in a river, along with various attempts to talk shit about the subject of race in the UK.
"Harvesting"? REALLY?
Get the fuck off this thread now.

fuck off you dunce
1 - There're 2,240,850 patients on the Shielded List, so plenty of vulnerable people for covid to take, lucky most are vaccinated now.
2 - I am not talking about general respiratory illnesses, but specific covid cases & deaths.
And, you can fuck right off with your 'harvesting' nonsense, which is deeply offensive to those of us that have lost family & friends to this shitty virus.
I think it's about time you are banned from pushing your brainless conspiracy nonsense on here, you complete cunt.
A tiny, tiny number of fewer vulnerable people, not enough to explain what is going on now.1 - But still far fewer vulnerable people than before.
2 - Your point makes no sense. You have to compare like against like time periods for a fair comparison.
3 - Treatment protocol has evolved since March 2020. Patients are more likely to survive due to better knowledge about how to treat the disease once hospitalised.
I have a feeling they are not trolling
I know some people who argue bang the same.Same here, they are showing classic signs of having gone down the conspiraloons rabbit hole.
