Nobody is stopping you posting on this thread are they?
As for calling specific members a crank, I was pointing out the number of posts on this thread, not labelling people as such. If it makes you feel any better I can edit the title.
I would love to know what your response to Wilmslow Red would be? It's your response to that type of post that scares me, hence me keeping it over here where you can still post but it's not in peoples faces.
I don't think anybody would find Wilmslow Red's experience anything other than heart breaking and be empathetic towards them. At the same time, it is fair to acknowledge that they, and all of us have been grossly misled regarding the safety and efficacy of the mRNA vaccines in particular. These are not mutually exclusive things, and we shouldn't have to stick our collective heads in the sand and pretend that this is not the case. It's ok to admit that we were wrong. It's ok to admit that we were misled, criminally. By people that should have known better.
Interesting reading Fergie's & Catch-33's accounts above, I also know somebody, who was highly likely killed by the Pfizer vaccine, dropping dead by the poolside while on holiday with his family in Italy in the summer of 2021. They'd originally had the Sinopharm vaccination, but had to take Pfizer shortly before their trip, because Sinpharm was not recognised internationally. They tested negative for COVID prior to their travels to get on the plane, so it wasn't the virus. They were as fit as a fiddle and ran 10ks regularly.
The use of the 'anti vax' and 'crank' terms on this forum, by people with zero scientific academic background are pejorative, and completely undermine people like me, who has a Bachelor's Degree in Bioinformatics, and whose study was specifically DNA transcription, mRNA translation, genomic & proteomic analysis & sequencing.
Moderna scientists have already acknowledged this year in publication that unacceptable toxicity is in their mRNA products. This is information that should have been made available to the public in late 2020 and early 2021, as part of an informed consent, so that people could make an informed, risk : benefit choice about taking them. That people were bullied, coerced and shamed into taking them, by their government, by their health authorities, by the media, by their peers, is an absolute disgrace, particularly given the lack of long term clinical safety data at the time. Lessons need to be learned by all, so that we are more informed and considered in our thought processes and actions in the event another health event occurs in the future.
