this is not true.
1. Sith denied any mandates/proof of them being required has happened before now.
2. It still has been somewhat effective on stopping transmission.
HOWEVER it looks even worse at stopping the Omicron spread for sure.
The restaurant thing is tricky.. while I understand it.. It should be up to the individual business.
Ill take the infringement on this one as so many people just can't be bothered to help the system out on their own.
If the vax was accepted at the 90% rate as Polio.. I would be on the same side of the issue as you are.


let me rephrase then, i never denied it or any person with the slightest clue :p

i havent seen any curve that suggests that the vax ever stopped the spread, but with delta and now omicron thats history anyway

in fact places with fewer restrictions like sweden or florida had lower numbers than the hardcore mandate countries

the vax rate only matters when it comes to hospitalization

you admitted that coercion is part of the equation here btw

In the restaurant local city municipality restrictions yes it is.
I will say locally 95% of the business' here were doing it on their own.. But yes it is coercion by the local governments.
It would have left 5% for FrrEEdom parties you are correct

sweden has higher numbers and death rates than its neighbours, as has florida. vaccines work, as do masks.

sweden had their massive death rate before the vax was enrolled in the first wave and they didnt even do anything to protect retirement homes (which was obviously a mistake)

since then, they are doing better than germany for example with very few mandates at all

yes, vaccines do work for those who need it

masks are and have always been garbage except if you are wearing FFP2 masks super tightly

you remember when people wore cloth masks for over a year? they were great too until they werent

wrong on all counts:

- sweden is not doing better than germany (or its neighbours, which was my original point - since comparing them with finland or norway for example gives you a better picture of what you'd expect in a low population scandinavian country)
- sweden had plenty of restrictions after their initial laissez-faire approach saw their death toll rise drastically
- you never know before who "needs it", which is the point of vaccinating everyone who cares about their fellow citizens, and is not just some selfish asshole, afraid of a little shot.
- masks work. not surprised a covid flat-earther like you doesn't understand that, but that fortunately doesn't change the facts.

nice dodge on florida too. speaking of which:

sweden has had lower cases and deaths per capita for a long time now, thats a fact

i was there was last summer and what you call plenty of restrictions is nowhere near the shit we have, there was a please wear a mask message on the tram lol

you can spread the "care about fellow citizens" bullshit all you want, its not gonna make it more true
tha jab is a pure precautionary measure, that is all

young people dont need it despite the freak stories spread in the media, just like nobody gives a shit about vax freak accidents

you go get 10 shots, you will spread covid just like anyone else so your argument is obsolete

and anyone who thinks that the masks most people use even remotely work, i dont even know what to say, but i guess covid is not getting in and out of these "surgery masks" like its nothing :lol:

florida has thankfully understood that this is test epidemic, whether its 50k, 100k or 1m cases does not matter anymore

covid is making its round and almost every person will encounter it, no matter how many stupid measures stay in place

dont be angry at me for getting duped

there was a time when i bought the narrative as well and i actually wanted the vaccine, but i was not eligible thanks to the stupid EU not getting enough shots

guess i have to thank them when i see the outcome, this shit is almost over

Florida is the oldest state in the USA and its vaccination rate is 80%. You need to see a therapist.
