I'm kind of disappointed that someone who I took for being pretty smart has fallen down this rabbit hole.
Politics makes people stupid. Both sides, obviously, before somebody jumps in with 'what about liberalism...?'
I'd go as far as saying that being a true believer in anything isn't conducive to rational thought.

I got a call from my friend this afternoon. He was in the car, driving home.
He called to talk about vaccines.
The conversation included things like, "Is there ANY drug that is given without a discussion of possible side effects?"
"Is informed consent obtained before vaccines are given?"
"Are you aware of all the complications being reported to the CDC and ignored after vaccination?"
I tried to remain polite, but it was difficult.
I succeeded.

Read this, and remind yourself that it happened before ever trying to explain the obvious to anyone:

And this guy is a surgeon. Probably 4 years as a Biochem major and another 4 in Medical School. An entire career in medicine treating patients, interacting with colleagues, and reading all the medical journals staying up to date with treatments, medicines, etc… So as a common layman, I would expect him to be far better educated thanI am. So if I knew this guy and he was sending me this stuff, I would have to lend it credence. How many people is this guy influencing just because he’s a surgeon?
Now, regarding the article, even if there have been 100,000 serious adverse reactions (and I sincerely doubt most of those) then you are looking at 1 out of every 10,000 vaccinated people having a bad reaction. That’s a lot better than the one out of every 100 dying from COVID and the 2 out of 10 that have long term debilitating effects from the disease.
Still, I do have to wonder what happened to this guy that he has such a mistrust for the medical authorities?

You mean the vaccine that in 6 mo tbs has gone from "the vaccine will end the pandemic" to "You can still get covid even if you've been vaccinated" to "You can pass covid on to others even if you've been vaccinated" to "You can still die from covid even if you've been vaccinated" to "the unvaccinated are killing the vaccinated"?

wrote on 24 Aug 2021, 12:49 last edited by@lufins-dad he's always been a bit of a conspiracy-theory guy. Although he and I agree on political things, for the most part, this kind of stuff really bothers me. He is now retired, so at worst, he's talking to his friends, who may give credibility for his education and experience.
He and I talked on the phone about a week ago, and he started throwing out these numbers, and I pointed out that the risks of not being vaccinated. He dismissed it, of course. I commented on the mandatory (if you want your kids in school) vaccinations for measles, etc., and he reverted to the "EUA" argument.
I gave up after a while.

Yeah, that one. The one that's more effective than the flu shot you get yearly, the one that's more effective than the mumps/measels vaccine.
That one.

Speaking of the flu vaccine, would any of our resident medical experts care to hazard a guess why the flu vaccine seems to help prevent severe COVID?

I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty sure it's do with the immune system and other stuff. Probably prions. Also, it's idiopathic.

Again, I'm just linking stuff that my friend is sending.
Reposting is not agreement!
The FDA approved the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine this week but one expert in the field is asserting that the vaccine that has been being given to people and is under Emergency Use Authorization and the vaccine that now enjoys “FDA approval” are not the same.
Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of the mRNA technology behind the COVID vaccines, spoke with Steve Bannon, host of the popular podcast the War Room, and said that the FDA approved shot and the EUA shot are not one in the same.
Bannon asked, is the “authorized” vaccine now ready to be administered to patients?
“It’s absolutely not available,” Malone explained. “The little trick that they’ve done here is that they’ve issued two letters, separate letters for two separate vaccines. The Pfizer vaccine which is what is currently available, is still under emergency use authorization, and it still has the liability shield.”
He added, “The product that’s licensed is the BioNTech product which is substantially similar but not necessarily identical. It’s called Comirnaty… and it’s not yet available. They haven’t started manufacturing it or labeling it and that’s the one that the liability waiver will no longer apply.”
“So the one that’s actually licensed is not yet available and when it does become available it will no longer have the liability shield.”
Dr. Malone has previously warned that Americans have not been provided with enough information to decide whether or not to take the chances on getting the experimental COVID vaccines. He says we just don’t know if the supposed benefits outweigh the risks.

I heard this one last night from my wife’s cousin who is an x-Ray tech and vehemently against taking these vaccines (though she does seem open to future vaccines). I didn’t even have a clue as to how to dispute it.

All these arguments sound a lot like the 9-11 conspiracy folks. It's not worth engaging - as somebody here once said, you'll find that you've just wasted 3 hours researching the melting point and properties of steel, and when you get back to them they've not just moved the goal-posts, they've erected a whole new stadium.

Is it possible that someone could find any valid fault with one of the covid vaccines?
Just theoretically possible I mean.
I can't imagine any flaws in real life.

Of course it's possible. Everything has flaws. That's not the point. Like I said, it's our best chance.

Good lord (sent to me this morning):
‘There is no product in human history that has ever created such a swathe of injuries to the public’
Following the recent decision of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to give its approval to the Pfizer-developed COVID-19 vaccine, doctors and medical experts from the Truth for Health Foundation convened to warn the public against the dangers of the shots that the FDA is not publishing.
The third meeting in the “Stop the Shot” series, broadcast on LifeSiteNews August 26, brought together experts from around the world to discuss the safety record of the newly approved Pfizer vaccine, as well as its market competitors, with the purpose of forming “a citizens’ safety review board on the COVID vaccine.”
“We are stepping up to serve the public,” Truth for Health president and CEO Dr. Elizabeth Lee Vliet, M.D., said, “because the CDC [U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] and FDA have failed to evaluate updated safety information that has been coming to light since these experimental shots were launched.”
Vliet added that these bodies “have failed to report to the public accurate information about medical risks and complications, and the rising deaths that have occurred since the experimental COVID shots were launched.”
Dr. Peter McCullough, M.D., is the chief medical adviser to the Truth for Health Foundation as well as a cardiologist, epidemiologist, and professor of medicine. Appearing at the conference, McCullough criticized the FDA and CDC for failing to produce an adequate safety review of the COVID jabs they have sponsored and that subsequently have been mandated by “40 percent of the top five hundred companies.”
“Americans have questions,” he said, which is why the Truth for Health Foundation is setting up its own “citizens’ safety review board.”
The renowned physician explained that he has chaired over 24 data safety monitoring boards for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), “big pharmaceutical and device committees, and multiple different divisions of federal agencies.” With his experience on these health product safety boards, coupled with the latest data showing Pfizer’s jab to have a 42 percent efficacy level, McCullough noted that “at this point in time, the lead vaccine that’s up for full approval has failed.”
Accordingly, “Americans have been asked on faith to sign up and take one of these vaccines with no information, with a minimal informed consent,” correlating with over 500,000 vaccine injuries, the doctor said.
“These injuries fall into very serious categories,” he continued. “Over 12,000 certified deaths by the CDC, over 200,000 composite deaths, hospitalizations, urgent care visits, and office visits. A staggering number of myocardial infarctions, strokes, and over 4,000 cases of myocarditis, a heart inflammation in young individuals. Permanent damage to the neurologic systems, hematologic systems, immunologic systems.”
Edit to add: As I've said, I don't agree with more than 99% of what he's sending me. I just find it sad that this guy, whom I've known since 1989, a good surgeon, a smart guy, is trolling for stuff like this.
