@Jdogg247 It's (mostly) not about protecting the kids. Unknown long-term complications and the risk of a variant that's more dangerous are considerations, but it's mostly to reduce spread among the general population. If they were serious about ending the pandemic they'd be vaccinating any willing kids immediately after all the willing adults had gotten it instead of yelling at antivaxxers and jerking off to bureaucratic bullshit.
@ArdanianRight if they give the shot to kids they should be put on trial for crimes against humanity…
@Jdogg247 Kids get shots all the time. I don't see any reason why they shouldn't be administered on a voluntary basis considering that the risk for side effects has generally been low. At the very least it makes no sense to open IRL schooling without giving parents even the option to vaccinate their kids to reduce the likelihood of them bringing it home.
@ArdanianRight you do acknowledge that this isn’t a vaccine and at best it’s a dangerous therapeutic right?
@Jdogg247 Not all vaccines provide complete or sterilizing immunity. The shot does provide pretty good protection against severe illness and it's not especially dangerous.
@ArdanianRight @Jdogg247 how can anyone say "this treatment is safe" when long term studies don't exist at all? Is it bad faith or what? Pharma pulls the plug on meds 3-4 years down the line bc side effects become evident all the time. They even pull fully approved stuff years later.

These therapies have been out for like 8 months, trials were like 2 months. What evidence is there for them to be "safe"? You look like disingenuous fucks. Best you could have is "we don't know and it's a gamble"
@MechaSilvio @ArdanianRight @Jdogg247 Having spoken to libtards on this: they are aware of the possibility of side effects. If you corner them they will freely admit this. However, they are convinced ("TV said so") that a) the side effects are "low risk" and b) that covid-19 is so horrible that it's worth it no matter what.
@hourmutt @MechaSilvio @Jdogg247 I mean covid is bad enough to kill 600k+ Americans. If people were actually dropping dead en masse from the vaccine we'd know about it. Obviously there are risks of side effects, some of which are unknowable without years of research, but that's true for the disease as well. Risk is an inevitable part of life, but I'm siding with the smaller risk in this case. The evils of nature are worse than those of civilization.
@11112011 @ArdanianRight @MechaSilvio @hourmutt as I’ve said before this is far worse than some Holocaust because it’s happening to me. Just let me make my own choices this shouldn’t be that hard ,but here we are…
@Jdogg247 @ArdanianRight @MechaSilvio @hourmutt agree man im just mocking the stand all gon die in mass u surely dont belive that
@11112011 @ArdanianRight @MechaSilvio @hourmutt not en masse but over time the effects are going to horrific for mystery shot takers we just don’t know ,but the fact that it failed so quickly and spectacularly should be a red flag like maximum red flag…
@Jdogg247 @11112011 @MechaSilvio @hourmutt How do you know the longterm side effects are going to be bad? Go ahead and sit it out if you like but don't pretend you know what's going to happen. At best I only have educated guesses based on past events that it'll probably be fine, but I can't say I know that.
@ArdanianRight @Jdogg247 @11112011 @MechaSilvio @hourmutt I, for one, am worried about the long term side effects of the massive propaganda campaign and the state pushing the private sector to enforce the whims of whoever is in power (when it doesn't go full orwellian police state like in Australia and NZ (inb4 the inevitable Aussie or Kiwi saying "but it works, look at them death counts"))
