Mask wearing does help reduce community transmission

[ajohn]

Yes, it does. Studies show that masks reduce the number of cases of community transmission.

It's totally crazy arguing that the don't. Most normal hospital use has always been mostly to prevent the people who do the work from infecting patients. It even goes way way back in history. Covid in this respect is no different to other infections.

They are not so good at protecting the wearer from infection but much better than things such as doctors used to use that caused them to be called quacks or nice smelling things etc because it was the smells that caused the infection.

Do you have proof for the efficacy of your beloved fraudulent injections?

Erm, it doesn't work like like that. You made claims, either put up, or shut up. I won't be disproving things for you.

 

[denso13]

You’re hunger for ‘evidence’ from sources fed by the very authorities who manipulated , gaslit, coerced, lied, hoodwinked and groomed you over the past 2 years

I asked you where you got your evidence and what it is. The usual antivaxxer trick of twisting things when you have nothing...

 

[Risteard]

Erm, it doesn't work like like that. You made claims, either put up, or shut up. I won't be disproving things for you.

You're the one claiming that it is effective, so the burden of proof rests with you.

 

[Notch7]

everyone else knows it's a ridiculously mild ailment

Do you know anybody that worked in a covid ward?
Do you know any healthcare professionals that work with long covid patients?

 

[denso13]

You're the one claiming that it is effective

You claimed they were "ludicrous injections" and want me to prove you wrong? Erm no, it doesn't work like that...

 

[denso13]

Totally believeable

Yea, those pesky lying doctors and healthcare professionals. Should all be shot

 

[Notch7]

Do you have proof for the efficacy of your beloved fraudulent injections? No. Of course you don't. They're complete bullshit - always were and always shall be.

There is plenty of evidence proving the efficacy of covid vaccines.

For a start I suggest you compare the Alpha wave in Jan 2021 with the Delta wave in June 2021.



Without the covid vaccines we would still be suffering pandemic waves with significant deaths and high hospitalisations.


It is a shame for you Risteard that you have been taken in by covid conspiracists

COVID totalitarianism shall never be forgiven. Vengeance is essential.

Do you know anybody that worked in a covid ward?

I do, it’s not a mild illness.

 

[Notch7]

There were never "significant deaths".

Don’t be silly, we all know that’s not true.

 

[Notch7]

COVID totalitarianism shall never be forgiven. Vengeance is essential.

Really?

Fill your boots. Let me know which specific points you disagree with.

Counting deaths associated with COVID in a different way to how every other disease is tallied is fraudulent and unforgivable.

But it wasn't, that is a lie. You can find the numbers, for example, of "with" and "of" flu and pneumonia. No difference,

 

[denso13]

It is true though

No, it isn't. Why not post up any evidence you have for....ah nevermind.

flu carriers and then assert that their death by firing squad was as a result of influenza

Eeck, shooting people with the flu? It's worse than I thought...
