Rather than focus firstly on the bare facts, and let their opinion be derived from that - they conflate it with all sorts of other issues, and let their pre-existing opinions on unrelated issues determine their perception of the facts. In this case we have a post about the efficacy of vaccines, and his response is to go on about the effectiveness of strict lockdowns - which has nothing to do with it.MarkThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06199883270652041621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-24325797221314036382022-07-04T20:31:32.104+12:002022-07-04T20:31:32.104+12:00True.

“Excess ...The Covid Project Manager cherry picks..<br /><br />“Excess mortality is the smart, objective standard. It includes all deaths, whether from COVID, the indirect effects of COVID (such as people avoiding the hospital during a heart attack), or the side effects of lockdowns. And it gets rid of the problem of underlying differences among countries, allowing a direct comparison of their performance during COVID.”<br /><br />“Our World in Data, a database maintained by the University of Oxford, shows that Sweden continues to have low excess mortality, now slightly lower than Germany, which had strict lockdowns. Another study found no increased mortality in Sweden in those under 70. Most recently, a Swedish commission evaluating the country’s pandemic response determined that although it was slow to protect the elderly and others at heightened risk from COVID in the initial stages, its laissez-faire approach was broadly correct.”<br /><br />https://washingtonmonthly.com/2022/04/19/what-sweden-got-right-about-covid/<br />gregsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786701115887458801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-46593253058248008302022-07-03T22:06:52.846+12:002022-07-03T22:06:52.846+12:00Far from the reality Mike.

It is not a vaccine but a rna gene therapy which has months to go before passing initial safety tests and years for long term safety tests. All around the world it is shown that more jabs mean more cases and deaths. Less than 60 nz deaths can so far be confirmed as caused by covid 19. The rest died with it, not of it. 83 percent of people in nz hospital have been jabbed 2 or 3 times. The jab is not safe of effective. Look at the people who are promoting this scam.Mike Webbernoreply@blogger.com
