    After people starting dying by using the fish tank "ick" remover, Hydroxychloroquine, I wonder if that is part of the reason why we have not seen more mainstream discussion about Ivermectin in the US. We would have a wave of dumb-arses taking their dogs heart worm pills or (worse) their horse's heart worm pills.

    Show me where I said the majority weren't unvaccinated. I'll wait.

    Oops. Keep up the fake news sport.

    Study says new Lambda variant could be vaccine-resistant | TheHill
    The lambda variant, a COVID-19 mutation first identified in Peru that is quickly popping up worldwide, has been highlighted by governing bodies like the World Health Organizations (WHO) as a variant of interest. But a new study suggests that it may be resistant to some vaccines.

    A preprinted whitepaper published in late July focused on the mutation that distinguishes the lambda variant, denoted as C.37, within its S protein, found in the cell’s binding receptor.

    The mutation at this location on the virus is associated with being resistant to immunization efforts.

    Using data from the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data database, researchers found three mutations within the lambda spike protein that could mean resistance to antibodies induced in humans by vaccines.

    “Our results suggest that the resistance of the Lambda variant against antiviral humoral immunity was conferred by the RSYLTPGD246-253N mutation,” the report concludes.

    The RSYLTPGD246-253N mutation, along with two other mutations identified when synthesizing the COVID-19 samples, specifically resists immunity from antibodies generated by the human body.

    If this video doesn't make scare you into rethinking what Covid-19 really is and what the so-called vaccines really are them you don't have one critical thinking bone in your body... This video is frightening. Listen to the real doctors and the science that they will present and the CDC quackery that they all refute.

    It's happening right here in the U.S.A. too. At least I know who the commies are.

    You made a false claim saying "Vaccines don't work as advertised."

    It is basically Youtube for people that Google decided were too nuts. The first doctor on there is a complete nutcase. He is now some nutbag politician ranting about the Jews when he is not doing anti-vax stuff. I didn't watch beyond that.

    They don't. If they did we wouldn't be needing booster shots 8 months later. Oops.

    It's the people in the video that matter... I found the video, and most imprtotanly the people in it, to be extremely interesting and knowledgeable.

    It's how Australia sees what's going on with Covid-19, but several American doctors and doctors with world credentials speaking out about the abuses of government officials. Officials using Covid under the guise for something far more different than just a Covid free nation.

    Like I said before I know who the commies are...

    I watched the first 2 minutes and recognized no less than 5 "medical professionals" that we've already seen on this thread and have been thoroughly debunked.

    It's basically a highlight real of quacks set to spooky music.

    Smh…hundreds of dollars for fake vaccine cards, when the vaccine itself is free.

    *facepalm*

    Really? We knew how effective the vaccine might be 8 months out when it received emergency authorization? Even though, at the time, the vaccine was less than 8 months old? I want whatever crystal ball you are using!

    Similarly, we knew exactly how the vaccines would react to the delta variant even though, when the vaccine was created before the delta variant existed! Again, your foreknowledge of science and medicine is absolutely amazing!

    Of course, the reality is, and always was, the need for boosters was always highly likely. The unknowns were variants and how long immunity from the jab would last. But once again, if you think the scientists and medical professionals didn't anticipate the potential need for boosters, then why put four lines on a vaccine card for a vaccine that originally only needed at most, 2 shots to be fully vaccinated?

    All you have to do is Google. Or go to state dashboards and look at the spread of Covid. Then compare high compliant mask communities to low compliant. It is not hard. And it will show on average the high compliant spike much steeper when the virus goes off.
