Virtually no one in the construction trades have died either. They’ve continued just as every other year to interact in large networks & they can smell the BS. My son in law is among them & reports people are ready to move to massed civil disobedience.

There I am in agreement with Vanden Bossche!
Those not at obviously elevated risk of severe outcomes including death should not even be offered these experimental treatments.

I endorse his conclusions though I have a different perspective on the immunology.
He’s probably right that massed vaccination is the wrong strategy & I thank him for providing a new rationale.

Just a reminder: "Covid19 cases" graphs and numbers do not reflect true cases, they reflect the cycle threshold at which a RT-PCR calls a positive. It should be 24 but the WHO linked directives on various protocols called it at 35, 40 or even 45. The WHO, in correspondence with Biden's inauguration and the vaccine roll-out decided to issue a directive effectively telling all labs to reduce the cycle thresholds at which a positive is called: WHO. 13th January 2021
One full year into this pandemic:
"MANUAL ADJUSTMENT of the PCR positivity threshold is RECOMMENDED. 👉The cycle threshold (Ct) needed to detect virus is inversely proportional to the patient’s viral load👈."

It’s a short but powerful reminder that mass testing per Blair’s ignorant Moonshot, is utterly impractical, even if it had value.
Tests using over-sensitive, imprecisely matching PCR primers & probes, are capable of such manipulation and/or error that, as deployed, they are worse than useless.

Vaccination passports could allow immunized people to travel or re-enter society, but many people in already-vulnerable groups would be excluded.

KARL POPPER: "No rational argument will have a rational effect on a man who does not want to adopt a rational attitude.
Those who promise us paradise on earth never produced anything but a hell.
Philosophers should consider the fact that the greatest happiness principle can easily be made an excuse for a benevolent dictatorship.
There is an almost universal tendency, perhaps an inborn tendency, to suspect the good faith of a man who holds opinions that differ from our own opinions.
In so far as a scientific statement speaks about reality, it must be falsifiable; and in so far as it is not falsifiable, it does not speak about reality.
Piecemeal social engineering resembles physical engineering in regarding the ends as beyond the province of technology.

KARL POPPER: "We must plan for freedom, and not only for security, if for no other reason than that only freedom can make security secure.
It is wrong to think that belief in freedom always leads to victory; we must always be prepared for it to lead to defeat. If we choose freedom, then we must be prepared to perish along with it.

"I went to a meeting with a youth club where we all wore masks. It was downright miserable: no one spoke, personalities seemed blunted. Then they sent us outside for a break, and instantly everyone went back to their normal selves. But the second we went in and put the masks back on, everyone disappeared behind them again.
The only reason I was at that youth group was to see my friends, but I stopped going after that, because it wasn’t worth seeing the masked version of them.
People my age want to be in school primarily for the social element. Masks remove that. We’re all just exhausted by sadness and anger, desperate to escape or even just to breathe for a minute, because we’ve had no break since March 2020.
Now that Covid cases are plummeting by the day and an effective vaccine has been offered to all vulnerable groups, isn’t it time to give teenagers like me our lives back?"
