How do you see it?

Heard a sentence that was both pretty bang on the head or severely enraging depending on how you see things…

“This is the first time in history that the ineffectiveness of a medicine has been blamed on people who haven’t taken it.”

Would you agree with that, whether fully or partially or do you entirely or partially disagree?

I'd go so far as to say that paracetamol is pretty good for headaches, but it doesn't work if you don't take it lol

It's a statement that falls down km both its premises - first that the vaccines have been ineffective and secondly that the performance of the vaccine is being blamed on the unvaccinated.

The recent WHO report suggests suggests vaccines saved half a million lives and preventss tens of millions of infections.

It’s hard one to answer though isn’t it!

I’ve been thinking about my opinion on it. And I couldn’t say ‘yes I agree’ because that’d be saying I think it’s ineffective, which I don’t and to be fair I don’t think that many people actually do.

However I don’t think it is effective enough to justify the segregation, blame, abuse, ridicule, bullying etc of people who haven’t had it.

As the vaccine isn't ineffective there's no blame to be made in my opinion.

The statement is not great is it?

This is the first time in history that: The start of the sentence is saying never before, this adds no value other than to add an element of drama.

the ineffectiveness of a medicine has been blamed on people who haven’t taken it

This makes no sense at all, nobody is blaming the ineffectiveness of a medicine on anyone.

Pure theatre and demonstrates how easy it is to say nothing factual and allow the reader / listener to interpret the meaning.

350 people under the age of 60 have died with COVID with no other comorbidity in the last year … all other deaths had some kind of comorbidity.

400 people drowned last year … more people literally drown every year than die of COVID if previously healthy vaxxed or unvaxxed …

Are you able to provide a link to a credible source for this? I have no way of knowing if true but if it is then that is very interesting!

I heard that The Coroner ordered the pathologists in these drownings to PCR test at 1000 cycles so as to put them down as COVID deaths. /s

Actually 631 people sadly died of drowning last year. A third of those were suicide. The rest of your stats are not even remotely correct, but consider virtually no one over 50 doesn't have a comorbidity of covid and between a third and half the population do too.

Dont know if your numbers are correct or not, but thought it helpful to point out that swimming is in the national curriculum. You know as in a way to help kids survive if they fall in the water. As in a vaccine helps if you get infected. Same principal different methodology needed, both to save lives

Did some digging around and this is from Feb 21 - an FOI request to ONS...

https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transparencyandgovernance/freedomofinformationfoi/deathsofthoseunder60fromcovid19withnocomorbiditiesandmortalityratesin2020

The figures for deaths with no underlying conditions/co-morbidities are indeed pretty small.

The figures for deaths with no underlying conditions/co-morbidities are indeed pretty small. "

From the link:

"We define a pre-existing condition here as the last health condition mentioned on the first part of the death certificate when it came before the coronavirus (COVID-19) or was an independent contributory factor in the death, mentioned in part II. Where only COVID-19 was recorded on the death certificate, or COVID-19 and subsequent conditions caused by COVID-19 were recorded, we refer to these deaths as having "No pre-existing conditions". Of the 50,335 deaths that occurred in March to June 2020 involving COVID-19 in England and Wales, 45,859 (91.1%) had at least one pre-existing condition, while 4,476 (8.9%) had none."

This is how most respiratory/seasonal viruses kill people - they exacerbate pre existing conditions and the specific cause of death is often linked to the pre existing condition.

One of the most prevalent pre existing conditions that will appear on COVID related deaths, is diabetes. Now, I'm sure most of us knows someone with diabetes, it's increasingly common. It's also very manageable and I'd wager that the majority of people who died due to COVID ballsing up their diabetes would otherwise have been at very low risk of dying.

My Grandad (89) lived with advanced heart failure, survived influenza in winter 2019 but the moment he got COVID, it was too much. He'd actually been in the best health he'd been for a long time, just before he caught COVID. It finished him off in under a week. I'm pretty certain my Grandad would have made it the 9 months more to his 90th birthday, possibly beyond, but no, COVID cleaned him up.

Many people would say "ah yes, but he had a co-morbidity, a pre-existing condition" like that makes his death somehow acceptable?

The number of people in the UK who have undiagnosed underlying health conditions is high. Many forms of cardiovascular disease, for example, can be asymptomatic or easy to ignore in early stages, but if identified at death, would be recorded on the death certificate as a co-morbidity. Most people over 40 have some identifiable cardiovascular disease (it's normal aging as well as diet/lifestyle) and almost everyone over 50 has some degree of atherosclerosis, no matter how healthy they look on the outside.

These people would be classified as having co-morbidities, even if not diagnosed in life.

Many people on this thread will have undiagnosed disease, especially cardiovascular, because it's what happens as you age.

If it's referring to the many vaccines that are in use, I would disagree.

Just in the UK. which haf had extended restrictions from January 2021, the vaccines allowed the country to quickly reduce and stop them. If you ignore the vast reductions in deaths, severe illness and health services burdens - which would be ignorant and silly to do, everyone got massive benefits from these.

The vaccines were effective. People criticising them, under a different pretext, have likely not had a workable plan that would make achieved anything like the results from them.

It's quite a feat to quote as fact, two statistics that are both factually incorrect.

Yip lockdowns worked to push suicide rates through the roof and push all patients out of hospitals so they no regular treatments where being carried out so people died unnecessarily! the list goes on!… great policy indeed

The risk of adverse reaction from these vaccines is scary, hopefully you will wake up before you become injured from your next dose.., we are all praying for you to wake up to what is really going on in the world atm !!

In the late 1700's when Edward Jenner created the first ever vaccines, there were massive objections from large groups of people. The church described it as unchristian, many scientists spoke out against it, politicians quit their parties for supporting it and there were marches & riots claiming that it violated their personal liberties. In 1885 there was a 100,000 person march in Leicester against the roll out of a vaccination project... Small pox has been completely wiped out by vaccines.
