You hear the “I’m young and fit so I don’t need jabbed” line quite a lot. I dunno if it’s valid or not but it’s gained a loyal following. On one hand, yes, the old and fat are more vulnerable statistically speaking but there have been plenty of young fit folks who have come a cropper so I’m not sure why you’d take that chance unless you’re both young, fit and the type of guy who likes playing Russian roulette. But hey, let’s keep in mind that for at least a while there the official advice to the young was “we’re currently not recommending the jab cos the risk of Covid for you isn’t enough to offset the risk of the side effects to you.” So I do think reasonable people could be ambivalent, or at least a bit confused, if they are young and healthy.
Because really this is about making the type of complex judgements about risk and probability in the face of uncertainty and incomplete information which the chimp/human brain hasn’t really evolved to deal well with, right? And remember that the modelling and data are all flawed, error ridden and biased too so you can forgive people for reaching different judgments. Or being fucking baffled, frankly. (Even though it all just seems so blindingly obvious to the bon pensants, of course….)
But one common, obvious error would have to be the one that others have pointed out: if there are only five unvaccinated folk in a country, and two of them end up in ICU, you don’t point to the other twenty (out of five million vaccinated cunts) that end up in ICU and say “see told you vaccinations don’t work, there’s ten times as many got sick!!”
I think another valid point is the idea that folk get their two jabs in the summer then six months later when it’s completely worn off they’re whipping out the vax certs and ledging it at the coal face, catching it and infecting every other summervaxxed fucker whilst congratulating themselves on being responsible. Are these people protecting the NHS or not? Is this better than being unvaccinated but staying in your wee bubble? Again, judgement call. Is it better to spread it and gain natural immunity with some protection maybe?
Fuck knows man. Personally I think the stats are pretty clear, the more shit you let the 5G Illuminati pump into your arm the less chance of suffocating to death surrounded by cunts in hazmat suits wishing you’d rocked up and stood in line like all the other sheeple. But it’s true what they say, you can lead a Funky to water but you can’t make it drink.
Maybe the solution is to announce “look guys, if you catch Covid and want access to the nhs, don’t bother ringing an ambulance unless you’ve a) had all three jabs or b) have one of the following three approved reasons for not having it” ?
