and you will run to get vaccinated.
Best ever speech about covid
Well done Richard that’s a great link where you can hear an eminent doctor speak plainly and clearly about the vaccines. Thanks for flagging it up. Hard to see how the antivaxxerrs can justify their rubbish but this link answers much of their bile. Top man! Everybody: Get the shot, don’t rely on horse tablets.
mandatory vaccine for God sake
Where do you think you are Richard, China?
Are you prepared to try and hold down a grown man and jab him?
Better make your Will first.
That is about the first time I agree with one of your comments. We are free to do with our body what we want and no one should force us to get vaccinated. If you don’t want to take the vaccine, stay away from public places.
We have lost soooooo many friends in NYC because of covid. If you don’t want to get the shot, wear the mask and practice Social distancing also eat healthy food herbs/spices to help build your immune system, because these preventives matters.
Does anyone know someone who is actually sick or is this a PCR false-positive casedemic/ vaccine marketing campaign?
We caught it in London in March 2020. Our main symptom was exhaustion: no coughing or loss of smell. I had headaches, brain fog, chest pain, sharp neurological pains, body aches and literally felt like my arms were going to drop off. We isolated at home and felt a bit better after two to three weeks. Then a month later, in May 2020, my partner relapsed. He couldn’t think, move or work. He has been more or less housebound since then and has had to take ill-health retirement. It is called long Covid. He was 43 when he caught it, and fit, a runner.
The vaccine does not give you the virus. But it might stop you dying or getting long Covid. It might mean that you do not become a carer for your loved ones. It might mean that you don’t catch it and pass it onto your friends and family, who pass it to their friends and family. Or give it to the nurse who is looking after your mother, and your neighbour’s mother, and your uncle, and her children when she goes home.
I don’t usually comment, but I didn’t say anything in the UK as restrictions eased and people were in denial, complacent or misinformed on social media. I should have been shouting from the rooftops about long Covid and the potential damage from Covid-19 other than hospitalisation and death. Please, get the vaccine and stay safe. I am speaking from experience.
My deepest sympathies to those who have lost loved ones.
Four people have died and you are mocking this? Grow up, get a life and have some empathy. Jesus man.
You didn’t answer a perfectly valid question.
It’s interesting to note how many people worship government. Not to name names but does it not even bother you that officials from the all over the world at all levels have been caught in DISinformation since the start of this? Yes, any death is unfortunate but it’s not government’s responsibility to mitigate every risk, especially from threats which they themselves create. It is however the responsibility of every citizen to hold government accountable and see to it that they don’t destroy freedom which they are required by law to protect. That is happening now. Governments around the world are destroying themselves and those in high positions will have answer for wrongs they are doing. How about dealing with reality and science for a change? Explain how before C-19 elderly people were still dying (how strange). Explain why the obituaries this year are filled with people under age 50 who were relatively healthy before they took a jab. It’s just a coincidence I’m sure that several people literally dropped in the street. It’s just a coincidence that ambulances have been busy since April. It’s just a coincidence that covid was well under control until thousands of jabbed persons arrived. Investigators have released over 250 pages of documentation on who created and released this mess, (and it was not just the Chinese) and yet no government has shown the slightest interest in bringing them to justice. It’s just a coincidence I’m sure.
Of course these deaths are being used for scare and fear propaganda to push experimental mRNA injections in Grenada, for a virus that is 99.9% survivable for those below 70.
4 CV19 deaths in total since March 2020.
Annually 1000 + all causes deaths per year in Grenada.
Average Life expectancy 71.5 years
Real world considerations for those trying to scaremonger you from reality.

Yet more fake news from Dr Johnson.
99.9% survivable if infected and under 70? Absolute Instagram rubbish.
Death rate is age dependent, around 0.2% (2 in 1000 cases) for less than 40 years old rising to over 3.5% (3.5 in 100 cases) for over 60 years old.
Especially after they are put on ventilators. Just ignore healthy living and early treatment options until you can’t breath and then go to the hospital at your own risk.
I had a friend die because he wouldn’t go to hospital, 3days after being found positive he was dead. He was in his 40’s, fit and healthy until he got it. One person he passed it on to had to be ventilated & she survived. You’ll be grateful for a ventilator if you can’t breath, you’d best just hope it’s not made in China.
Dr BrettB, you are correct its not 99.90% for under 70 year old, but instead 96.5% between age 60-70. (WorldOmeter data).
So yes my figure was wrong, but I dare says its still better than the mRNA drug where claimed 95% Immunity figures vary between 10-60% Immunity depending on various conflicting sources at present.
So yes while 96% is not 99% its still higher and comes with no Adverse Reaction for those under 70.
Thank you for bringing it to my attention, I appreciate it because that is how I learn.
The test being used only detects the protein spike in the virus that causes Covid 19. It cannot detect any other types of virus such as influenza or common cold. That is a completely false & fake assertion. There can be false negatives with this method but not false positives. I do not know personally anyone in Grenada who has had Covid but I do know personally several people in UK who have had the Covid virus.
Anthony I have wondered what genetic sequence the PCR looks for but I’m quite sure it can’t be the spike protein otherwise many vaxxed people would test positive for months afterward. It has been confirmed in several studies that vaxxed people shed spike proteins in body fluids. As for no false positives, this is not true. Even the CDC and the WHO have acknowledged that this is a problem when cycle thresholds are set too high. The fact that there is no international standard for how to run COVID-19 PCR testing is a complete travesty.
James. S. I am only repeating what an eminent Grenadian Doctor said on the news yesterday, she is a virologist so I trust what she said. Any questions ask her, she knows much more than I & much, much, much more than you & your anti vax cronies know about it.
Look at this accounts are going up and I bet you any money you like all you people will start to get vaccinated people who jab jab etc it’s all your fault so now you’re not going to suffer all your fault said do not blame your government blame yourselves you stupid kind of people get vaccinated get the message
599 active cases and 599 in self isolation….. so the people that have come into contact with these 599 persons don’t have to self isolate too??? Am I missing something?
Yes, you’re missing that they don’t know they have it. Yet. Perhaps they have only just found out their brother, sister, friend or whoever has it. Or maybe they are still unaware. Doesn’t make much difference as if they aren’t vaccinated they could well end up being seriously ill.
