On the surface this seems like a lot, 5,600 is a big number. But when you consider there's roughly 9.2 million doctors in the world, that's around 0.0006% signed onto this statement. So that leaves the other 99.9994%. So these 5,600 doctors are really just a tiny drop in a very large bucket. Even at a million doctors, which is a lot of people, that still would represent a very large minority. I think something like this would need to get up over the 3 million mark to give it some real serious weight.
‘Most doctors will not murder their career to speak up. Just like most resturants will not oppose the vaccine passport and have their business destroyed. So the numbers is a poor argument.
My thought is, when a doctor applies logical thought, and doesn't goes off the deep end, why are they doing it? Especially when they back it up with documentation?
I'm not on board with mandatory vaccinations, but I'm not opposed to restrictions being imposed for those who choose not to be vaccinated. I'm seeing a lot of push-back against it saying it's taking away freedom's, but I don't feel that is the case. I see requiring a proof of vaccine to sit down and eat at a restaurant as no different than requiring to wear clothing into the restaurant. If it ever gets to the point of requiring a vaccine to do necessities like buying groceries, or receiving services like power that's when I think it crosses the line of imposing on freedoms.
It will start out with resturants and such, but when the numbers don’t go down, because first off the vaccine is poor at controlling illness, and secondly the vaccine is not a bandaid for poor health. There will be vaccinated deaths. Since obesity is number one comobidity, and what 50% of Canadians are obese, we will have issues. People so underestimate how fat they are. Next it will be the unvaccinated killing the vaccinated. Not sure how, but we will be blamed.
So they will up the game. No getting take out. Maybe eventually groceries. It will likely cross the line. They have numerous times already, but it will be for our health.
Actually keeping me away from the vaccinated who can still spread is healthier for me. Even though I think they will abuse the passport, I’m fine with being restricted. The less I’m exposed the better.
I'm not even sure if "vaccine" is the right term they should be using. The word vaccine implies immunity, and they've said right from day 1 this doesn't provide immunity it will only help the body fight it off while minimizing symptoms. That simple fact is preventing many from getting it. Here in Eastern Canada, roughly 85% of cases since July are from those who are not fully vaccinated. That is leading to cries of "I told you the vaccine doesn't work! Look at the 15% who still caught it!!" I can only shake my head at those people because it's showing their lack of critical thinking.
I don’t really hold too much faith in the numbers. Most other places besides North America, vaccinated and unvaccinated are not that far off. In Alberta I know, if you believe theur numbers, 30% vaccinated. Mind you remember people with only one shot are now considered unvaccinated.
So only looking at the East, is not the whole picture. To think critically you need to look outside our neighbourhood.
I know the vaccine is a great tool. But only one of the tools, and it’s not needed for the people with minimal risk, IMO. Vaccinating kids, now that is seriously disturbed.
How about they start promoting a healthier lifestyle and at min vit d.
In the unvaccinated group, there are definitely 2 different camps. I completely understand those who have health conditions preventing them from getting the vaccine, those who fear the long term effects of the vaccine, fear the short term side effects or flu symptoms, or just have a general fear of needles. I use the word fear but it may be more like uncertainty. Either way, I can easily get behind their choices not to get vaccinated. The ones who choose not to because they think the vaccine is a vessel for mind control chips being implanted by our government for total global domination, well...... no comment! LOL
I personally am not getting it because I have too many people that depend on me being able to function. Since the first time I caught covid it was minimal, I’m pretty sure I‘ll be fine the second time. So even though the risk is small, why would I purposely risk it?
Yeah there is no chip, Jesus we all carry cell phones.
Actually I have zero issues with your thought process on the whole thing. Only difference is your is one thru the eyes of someone vaccinated. And I’m not calling you out specifically, just your post give me food for thought.
