Also, old evidence confirms it.

I guess whatever it takes to convince the skeptics. Though I figure nothing will convince them once they've made up their mind.
I don't like calling them "skeptics," because what they really are is super-gullible with regards to conspiracy theories.
"Science deniers" is a better description.
Step 1. Ask what someone thinks about vaccinations Step 2. Ask them what they think about evolution Step 3. Ask about climate change Step 4. Ask about what church they go to
You will learn so much of this overlaps. So much.

Cannot use logic to convince someone whose argument isn't logical in the first place
I've always preferred it phrased as "You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into," but same energy.

Okay, if you say so, because I died six months after getting the first one like they said I would. Now I'm a magnetic 5G zombie.
What brand of vaccine did you get? I definitely get the 5G orders from George Soros and such (pretty standard stuff), and I was already dead inside before the jab, but I didn’t get any magnetism.
I got whichever one is most convenient to me winning the discussion about how vaccines are bad and give you 100 autisms.

There was a 50/50 split in the US Senate when the vaccine came out. Every member of that group was vaccinated. They were the first members of the population to be vaccinated. If any of the ancient senators had died, the balance of power would have shifted in a huge way.

Seriously, I don't know why this is news.
Wait, yes I do, half the population is stupid.

Amazing what all the efficacy and safety studies said before is still true. It was true before, but now it's also true.

The sound you're hearing is goalposts being shuffled around.
Sometimes the goalposts are moved and merged with goalposts from other conspiracy theories.
When 5g wasn't the end of humanity it became the trigger for a zombie virus....hidden in the vaccine!
Wonder what third thing will become the new first domino to knock over the 5g and vaccine dominoes.

You mean ALL the republicans were lying this whole time? I am shocked! SHOCKED I say.
Guys the reason this study is important is because covid vaccines used revolutionary technology, they were the first to use mRNA based protein. If you remember we sequenced its genome within 40 days the making the vaccine was considerably easy. This is the main reason it took only 2 years for the vaccine to be made compared to years of development for other vaccines.
It also means that, with this new vaccine technology, we can develop vaccines faster and faster

We always knew/suspected this. But the ones that do the fearmongering around vaccines will not be interested in facts...

Where’s that guy that turned into a Newt?
I don't know about you guys but I absolutely love the $5000 that is deposited onto my microchip every month! Helps so much with bills! Thanks Obama!

I can almost hear all the scientists groan.

What's the point of this? The people who already believe the vaccine is safe already know it. Those that don't believe it's safe aren't gonna read this OR the report. They'll claim it's some sort of propaganda.
It's important simply to do just for the benefit of science going forward. We need to look at the long term effects of medicines. Usually we do that prior to release. It also protects you from the propoganda. Someone may throw out crazy statistics at you but you'll have this study in your back pocket so you can be like "yeah it's crazy" and dismiss don't debate.
And try not to get too downtrodden with humanity. Not everyone is a too far gone. Some are just a little lost.

The fact that "believe" is the operating word here is why medical science should be spread.

Are Republicans still waiting for people who got the initial vaccine to drop dead overnight? lol.

Genuinely impressive how a vaccine made under the conditions and time constraints COVID faced is so effective.
That's because most of the groundwork in developing mrna vaccines had already been done for years and years. This wasn't "how do we invent a vaccine for covid?", this was "how do we adapt this proven, well-understood vaccine tech so that it works for covid just like it does for the ebola virus that we originally developed it for?"

Totally not true, there’s …. Stuff. Dammit, the only thing I came up with to annoy the person giving me the shot was a one liner about improved 5G reception. And I used it twice: so cringey. Where are all the conspiracy nuts when you need them?

Anyone know where I can access the report mentioned? It doesn't seem to be linked anywhere in the article, nor cited by a searchable name...
Nvm, found it on the website for Public Health Ontario
If this is trying to convince skeptics, it'll do nothing. They'll go back to Nancy on Facebook and exclaim how they're putting 5G crystal-infused microchips into your body to turn you into a sky person. Literally nothing will convince the antivax.
