Novak Djokovic against mandatory vaccination 17:04 - Apr 20 with 6826 viewsHarry_Palmer

Novak Djokovic has revealed he is against mandatory vaccination and it could put his tennis career in jeopardy if he is prevented from travelling due to not agreeing to take a future Covid-19 vaccine.

It's a shame the press have to leap in with the immature 'anti-vaxxer' remarks instead of engaging in sensible debate, after all this raises an important debate around civil liberties. If the likes of Bill Gates get their way, nobody will be able to work, travel or do pretty much anything else unless they are up to date with all vaccines and eventually have a microchip or some kind of biometric id to prove it.

To my mind maintaining sovereignty of your own body and what goes into it is a fundamental human right, as are the right to work and travel. If we allow the state to mandate medical interventions in order for us to be active in society then we are going down a potentially very dark road in my view.

I am all for making a vaccine available asap for people who feel they need it but I would strongly oppose it being mandatory, after all if the vaccine works then why should anybody who takes it need to fear somebody that doesn't?

I realise Covid-19 has changed the the landscape considerably but I hope most would agree with maintaining the basic right to medical choice and health freedom. What do the good people of TWTD think?

Don't always judge a book by its cover.


But you can make informed judgments about a person's credentials from the lack of them. Which he did. And was right.

I'm not sure you can really claim that to be the case for a vaccine that has not yet been produced although I take your general point.

It is my experience though that adverse reactions are both under-reported initially and very much under investigated when they are reported.


Tho the safety testing is why it will be a year before a vaccine (if one can be developed) is available, not three months.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

It's weird how you cut out the last line:
Blaylock has endorsed views inconsistent with the scientific consensus, including that food additives such as aspartame and monosodium glutamate (MSG) are excitotoxic in normal doses.[2][3][4]

Or how about this view he also holds?

Blaylock has called the American medical system 'collectivist' and has suggested that health-care reform efforts under President Obama are masterminded by extragovernmental groups that wish to impose euthanasia.[20] He blamed the purported collectivism of American medicine for the retirement of his friend Miguel Faria. According to Blaylock, the former Soviet Union tried to spread collectivism by covertly introducing illegal drugs and various sexually transmitted diseases into the United States.[20]

As we are just copying from wikipedia.

Err- not all opinions are equal. You are proposing and supporting one, which is based on the "science" of someone with plainly nonsensical views. And offering his credentials as a basis to accept someone else's plainly nonsensical views.

You've made an arse of yourself tbh.

He has been judged to a degree by his Amazon reviews. And that's from people who actually bothered to read the book. And before you poo poo Amazon reviews, have you ever purchased a book off Amazon based on its reviews? An honest yes or no answer please?

If you scroll further up I said I'm sympathetic to both sides of the debate. But hey, don't let that stop you calling me an arse. All I asked somebody above is have they ever read a book or any data from the other side of the debate. Is that really such a crime round here?

Amazon reviews? Unbelievable. That's possibly the poorest justification of "evidence" I've ever seen on here.

And you wonder why I didn't respond your your questions on conspiracies the other day. You are at the point in the well documented cycle where anything which might undermine your viewpoint is part of a concerted and untruthful campaign against your viewpoint.

That's very selective bias.

For example, lets take a completely random book, absolutely at random.

Like say this book:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B009LJSIBY/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0

Look at that, 5 star reviews! It must be good.

AMBASSADORS BETWEEN WORLDS: Intergalactic Gateway to a New Earth, is a collection of amazing and profound conversations with enlightened extraterrestrials. Topics include the nature of God, evolution of the soul, finding your purpose, living your passion, cleaning up the environment, and developing new energy resources.

Wow!

Here's one review:

Miller is painstakingly consciousness about the accuracy of the transcripts of her interactions with the various beings she communicates with from the Inter-galactic Alliance of Light.

Her book is a fascinating exploration of the mind-set, priorities and central values of the Alliance's humanoid and alien civilizations living in the fifth or other dimensions.

It's a little too wonkie for my style, likely because the gravitas of the subject is so high for Miller.

But, this book will be, I predict, historically significant, although few can understand that now.

As awareness of humanity's inter-dimensional allies of light and those opposing entities of the negative or dark becomes more widescreen, this book will be looked to by humanity for answers they seek, which is why the book is chalk full of basic questions humans would ask aliens if they had the chance -- questions about time, space, science, religion, politics, society, economics, government, Earth's history.


Can't wait to read it!

And yes I have bought a book that I was unsure if I'd like based off of Amazon reviews. And other products for that matter. I'm not sure what that has to do with anything.

Also Blayblock didn't write the book, he wrote the foreword. Unless all they were doing was reviewing the foreword, it has very little relevance.

Anaphylaxis secondary to previously unknown severe egg allergy is the primary cause of death. And occurances of that are generally 1 in several million, if not billions.

There are some countries in the world where you need to carry your yellow fever inoculation certificate as proof to gain entry. If you don't want to have that jab then you cannot get into those countries.

In the current climate, if and when a vaccine becomes available, I wouldn't be at al surprised to find the unvaccinated treated as complete pariahs.

Possible implications not only for travel, but employment, financial issues (esp all types of insurance) and no doubt many other things.


Yes you may be right, it's possible that everyone will be required to have a

It wouldn't even need to be mandatory in areas like insurance; they'd just whack your premium up or refuse to cover you.
