Current Affairs Coronavirus Thread - Serious stuff !!!

Wonder what the anti vaxxers will be saying about it.

Someone I know who is nearing retirement age is not anti Vax but has no intention of taking the vaccine anyway.

Not all people refusing to get vaccinated are anti vaxers.

Doesn't really change the point but there you go

I thought I heard that earlier. The temp, not your lorry.

This might be the daftest thing I have asked in all this, which takes some doing, but it is defrosted to inject I assume?

Dunno mate, probably best to take a big coat with you to the docs though, just in case.

Sorry but I don't think that's the case. From what i read Pfizer took on all the costs with all payments to them at the back end provided the vaccine was approved (there were all these news stories about governments purchasing millions of doses, though they all stated - though not in line 1 - that it was all contingent on approval). For Pfizer, there was a front page article in Forbes about it describing how much their expected outlay was to be.....

Fair enough, I wasn't totally sure.

Still worth mentioning it's the second respiratory virus within 17 years to come out of China.

Both were covered up by the country .

And Sars was sars-cov-1 , this is sars cov 2.

There is coincidence and there's pattern.....

Should be a worldwide ban on chinese imports until they accept closing down all wet markets.

Hit them where it hurts the pockets.

That's if you accept the official story......

I'm not the only person sceptical about that like.

Comes in a glass with a gin and tonic apparently...pubs will make a fortune....

Nice chaser for your pint of Corona.

Will never be made public if they were cooking it up in a lab mate why for me the best we could get is them being forced to pay out their pockets then if this happens again they cant use the same excuse if their are no wet markets around to spread it about.

The wet markets didn’t do it, it came out of the Wuhan lab.....

This is great news and all, but I'm not forgetting that they can shrug off a $1 billion loss while Epipens cost $700

The cold hard fact is that they manufacture drugs for pennies and sell them for thousands of pounds

The pharmaceutical industry is the scummiest industry of all - Making billions off the sick

Think by definition they are at least a partial anti-vaxer - even if it's only one vaccine

Its the R&D that they do though.

Some scummy Pharma seems to have spent sommet like £1 Billion on a vax.
