Pfizer Begins Shipping COVID-19 Vaccine To US From Belgium | Newsmax.com

 

The headline says it all. Pfizer is shipping the vaccine to Chicago from Belgium. It would make sense to vaccinate the entire country of Belgium before the vaccine leaves the country. Are you getting your vaccine my Belgian friend? Any plan for Europe? It would be beneficial to create an effective vaccine everywhere. We would kill this China plague a lot faster by working smarter.

 

It'll be based on who bought how many and when...

The rich win again... okay that's one thing, but Capitalism doesn't work if people can't leave their house. We're an injection away from freedom... we should get this done and pay everyone later. If I lived in Brussels, and the vaccine is just down the street, I wouldn't feel too good about it not being made available to Brussels as it's shipped elsewhere. Crank up production and lets kill this thing.

Indeed, capitalism works well for those with money... and badly for those without.

Going for a strict geographical distribution might seem "smarter" but we aren't trying to paint the floors in a house. As I hope every nation does so, Belgium will firstly go for the weaker and older population, coupled with emergency and medical staff. Once those are done talk is about setting up vaccination posts to make stockage easer: Pfizer's needs to be -70°C/-95F.

 

Too late to work "smarter" on this one except by going polio-level stuff and vaccinate everyone.

Guessing they are going partly by PR, partly by $$ and partly % in relation to total amount requisted. Belgium currently has ~20M shots requisted and expect total procurement by 3rd quarter of 2021.

Sounds like communism dear comrade...

I'm not clear on how it will go here, but I believe Trump has already authorized billions to these companies to make it available to the USA at no cost to the public. Healthcare and first responders get it first... I think that's a bit of a waste because I believe those people have already been exposed in the highest degree. Then elderly, over 65, which is the highest in danger of dying from it.

 

Nothing is free. They will just tack it on to our already unpayable debt. I have no intention of getting the vaccine myself. I just want the fastest way to shut the scoreboards down, shut the lockdowns out, shut the whiners up, and get back to normal.

In the meantime, here's something that will shock you, because I guaran-fuckng-tee you weren't expecting this.

 

Strong evidence now points to the possibility that China may have not been entirely forthcoming about the severity of the COVID situation. https://edition.cnn.com/2020/11/30/asia/wuhan-china-covid-intl/index.html

*shocked pikachu face*

 

Think everyone and their cousin figured out China underplayed the virus. It just wasn't understood how severly due to people mistakingly drawing a too big comparison with previous corona virusses.

Loosely related to the Coronavirus, but I would like to thank Belgian police for breaking up an unauthorized gangbang party. You have supplied us with many days of laughter good sir, and delivered a good kick in the crotch for our POS prime minister :D

For more context: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-55145989

 

If you want a comparison how big this story is here in Hungary, it’s like as if Mitch McConnel was caught in a similar situation

Well the official story says nothing about anything of the sexual orientation or "theme" of the party, but I can guess why Hungarian opposition is having a field day with that one.

 

What was funny was that the fellow got sited for drugs on his person cause he got searched after not having his passport on him after they caught him trying to flee by rainpipe, they thus went to his home to get his "diplo passport of person with initials S.J." ...

 

Unsure if sincere?

Unsure of my sincerity? This isn't the time for my famous sarcasm.

We need this over, and you got it done. I'm on your side my President. :)

Blade if you want shadenfreud, it seems the US will get 100M schots of the Pfizer vaccine and then it has to wait to mid-2021 for a next batch cause the White House neglected to order further shots.

 

Then again we have 3 "western" vaccines in the running currently at the point of approval, the UK just jumped the shark and went for immedeat approval (which isn't weird as the approval dossiers were already present and updated thruwout phase II and III testing).

It's been a while.  Hope you are all doing well.

We are back in lock down, https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/alberta-covid-coronavirus-december-11-1.5837323

 

Not unexpected.

 

Been a trying few months.  We went to minimum manning, which meant one person in the office for a full week.  Very difficult to meet the needs of a course, plus the thousand other little things we have to do throughout the day.  It was exhausting.  Fell asleep on the couch more times than once.

 

All I can say is thankfully we'll be getting the vaccine soon.  Despite Trudeau's best efforts: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/conservative-vaccine-deal-1.5823628

 

Yeah, lets team up with the country that unleashed this plague. Then act all surprised when they take 44 million dollars, and refuse to share vaccine samples.

Grand County Colorado just noticed that 40% of their reported Covid-19 related deaths... also had gunshot wounds.

 

You guys growing zombies now?

 

More concerning that that many people have gunshot wounds O.o

 

 

You guys growing zombies now?

I don't know anything about that, but the scoreboard is wildly inflated. No one dies of anything but Covid-19 anymore. This is really a medical breakthrough... according to the numbers coming out from the "scientists"... if everyone gets the vaccine, no one will ever die of anything ever again. All death comes from Corona now... or once again they are lying to keep the money coming in.

 

It's such a great business, my guess is Covid-20 is all ready to go.

Haha, if only!

The most disturbing line is that black one...

*looks up Grand County, Colorado*

 

So they themselfes report 1 death, 1 co-morbidity, state seems to have put it at 1+2 AND had put a murder+suicide with a positive test on the chart aswell, making it a grand total of 5. Hence your 40% thus: 2 out of 5. Seems someone misplaced them deaths indeed, shocker that people make mistakes.

 

Now, that this would suddenly indicate that the US is overcounting its COVID deaths is ludricous. Heck you fools are still undercounting the whole thing by shunting deaths into pneumonia and other lung (or heart) related illnesses. Latest numbers I found: officially 168k death vs 273k excess deaths by Aug 22!

 

Instead of a 40% overcount, you fools are 40% undercounting it seems... Which would put your current reported 311k deaths at above 400k!

 

btw I know we are doing much worse, Belgium is at ~160 deaths / 100.000 pop, USA is "officially" at ~95 deaths / 100.000 pop (adjusted to ~130 deaths / 100.000 pop for the excess death estimate).

 

 

Blade, any insight in why hearth and kidney diseases fluctuates around winter? Or is this just the corrolation between cold weather and old age?

The point is... most people who are dying in the USA are dying with Covid... not of Covid. Most deaths are recorded as "Covid Related", which is much like saying there is no evidence of "widespread" voter fraud. It's just a safe way to lie. If someone falls off a ladder and breaks their neck, and they test positive for Covid-19 anti-bodies, which means they have had the virus already, they declare it as a Covid-19 related death. It's just morbidly false, and the extreme definition of misinformation.

 

Anyone who is pushing the mask-up lockdown mentality is either galactically stupid, or making money off the misery.

People with lots of co-morbidities are more likely to be pushed over the edge by other illnesses, they're also generally sicker and less able to cope with colder weather.

But that is how health statistics work, if you want to push your "narrow" definition, I'd guess we would need to more then half all cancer deaths cause they usually die from an infection. Heck I'd think with that kind of mentality nobody would die from AIDS anymore! Huzzah!

 

I doubt your "fall off ladder, break neck, be COVID-positive" is anything but anecdotal, you would need to fire your coroner/doctor if they put it down as COVID-related (unless offcourse the sorry sod got on the ladder just from his ICU-bed while ventilated :D)

 

Speaking of making money, hows all that PP money scheme being funneled into mega-corps going? Same old capitalism me thinks...

 

Basically look at excess mortality, a brilliant statistical way to determine true effects of this pandemic. Offcourse some lokalized mortality jump can happen but I doubt you folks had a black plague or 2 we just never heared off... heck for Belgium only at best 1k of or excess mortality isn't linked to COVID but due to the summer heatwave of over 100F (yeah that is heatwave for us >_>)

Figured as much, just wasn't expecting such a clear difference (the other graphs are less pronounced in that aspect).
