D&D and the rising pandemic

Got a text saying I'm eligible for vaccine and a code plus link.

Went to the local health board basically follow the questions by pressing the buttons.

Then pick two dates and locations for preferred time and location.

11.15 am August 5th. Jab the bastard in she'll be right. Strategically chosen for lunch in town afterwards.

I believe we are all aware that we're not discussing fixing the current pandemic in this regard, but the next one.

It is sheer neglect that is the reason there isn't a vaccine plant in or near Australia. Maybe it wouldn't have been able to produce mRNA vaccines, but it sure could have produced a vaccine like AstraZeneca.

Heck, even a (very) small country like Sweden is talking about setting up shop. And that's a country within the richest club in the world!

The biggest scandal in the EU is that the UK beat them - a country that just left the EU... To billions of people, coming in the top 3 is an unattainable dream... here coming "dead last" out of that top 3 meant the top EU leadership had to scramble for damage control...

Actually there is an Australian vaccine in the works - it is just not getting the necessary funding and the same level of blanket immunity the oligarch-companies like the big 4 are being blessed with. There are a lot of politics behind the scenes the general public are not privy to.
 



This seems mildly inappropriate...

They've had low efficiency rates for months. It's not exactly new.

Some tested have had 0% efficiency completely useless.

Last few weeks

The article notes that several of the patients who have survived hospitalization are still more afraid of the vaccine than the virus. “It’s still too new.” one said, “It’s like an experiment.” This after being hospitalized, unable to breathe unassisted.
My are like this, too.

"I'm just waiting for more information."
"What information specifically are you waiting for?"
"Well, umm. . . ."

What they're waiting for is "approval" from the pundits of their tribe. The stupidity of their politics is just sickening, scary, and infuriating.

Maybe. For some (I hope not too high) number it may be too late for that. They've been so steeped in fear and distrust that even approval won't move them.
I hope you're wrong, but I fear you're right. My father always "knows better" than the experts when their advice conflicts with his worldview. If covid doesn't get him, Dunning-Kruger might.
