I don't think this person is a troll; they seem to really be the next CiC. Just completely lost.

We should just be glad that there are enough critical thinking people to hit the >75% vaccination rate to get herd immunity. Let them benefit from it, they are still part of the public after all.

I think they actually believe that "the news" is trying to mislead people. To what end, I don't know. But they are right in that I "don't want to know anything" that crazy people claim.

LightKeeper: "Vaccines" are not proven, MSM is lying, you're all sheep!
RS: stats show vaccines are working
Lightkeeper: But but bonnie henry! There's plenty of papers!
RS: Plz provide source
Lightkeeper: Do your own research!
RS: Plz provide source
Lightkeeper: Can't upload, sorry, RS is shit
RS: Plz provide source
Lightkeeper: Can't find source, but here's a shitty photo
RS: Finds paper very easily, finds it's written by non-experts, points this out
Lightkeeper: There's more, trust me.
RS: Plz provide source
Lightkeeper: Why, you'll just make fun of me! I won't reply anymore!
RS: lol, troll
Lightkeeper: I won't reply! But here's a reply, vaccines are bad!
RS: plz provide source
Lightkeeper: no, u
RS: We think you're objectively wrong, and hope you change your mind
Lightkeeper: you're all sheep, here's a diversion tactic, links to CTV.

Do you see why you're facing ridicule?

I had a discussion with a friend last month. He's been spamming me with a lot of "anti-vax" videos and articles. Kind of TL;DW TL;DR.

Anyway, I just thought it was annoying how he would just send sources without actually talking to me. I don't know if I was just part of his list of contacts that he was mass messaging these to.

One day, I just wanted to burst his bubble and told him I already had my shot, lol. I had no idea he was really serious about this stuff and nearly scolded me and said I am going to die in 5 years.

Well shit..... maybe.

I went on a shopping spree for car parts afterward.

You should ask him if he will be disappointed if you don’t die

My anti-vaxx brother is a LightKeeper until he caught covid. Bed ridden for 2 weeks and driving himself to the hospital to confirm hes not dying.

His Facebook post saying its just a mild flu and government/media is brainwashing you has aged like milk.

He's now waving the white flag and preaching the vaccine. Its all a conspiracy until it affects you personally. Luckily our vaccination rates are high and lightkeeper gets to leech the benefits.

People like LightKeeper are worse than scum. Planting seeds of doubt in the guise of "scientific inquiry" when in fact he and people like him are the one ignoring reams of scientific inquiry that have been peer-reviewed on these vaccines. The hesitant and weak-minded latch on this misinformation and the pandemic is prolonged for all of us.

Fuck you.

I have one friend like that, I just don't take the bait, don't argue with him and let him continue with zero interaction on the topic.... I like the guy but sometimes he says some dumb shit, I don't even feel the need to argue I'm not changing his mind and he's not changing mine.

Ok, as someone who works in hospital and has had a front row seat to this entire pandemic, lightkeeper you are incredibly misinformed. I don't even know where to start with all the completely incorrect information you're spewing.

Inb4 you're a pawn or part of the conspiracy

Update, 5 days after getting my 2nd Pfizer shot. I got the same minor hives breakout on my forearms and felt a bit sluggish the first day. No headache this time. Went right back to work NP.

Lightkeeper has fallen into the stereotypical anti-vaxxer profile. RS sincerely tried to give him the benefit of doubt and a moment to articulate an intelligible reasonable counterpoint but regretfully, it's the same old.

Apparently there's a Delta + now, which is another mutation of the Delta and vaccines might be not effective against it.

LightKeeper, I’m going to try be civil with you in hopes that you will reply again. Since you speak of college/university level education, you should know that vetting your sources is the most important. The journal that published the paper you quoted is pretty much garbage in terms of scientific integrity.

1. The Editor-in-Chief, John Oller, believes that vaccines cause autism which has never been proven. That should be a major red flag unless you believe in that theory as well? https://johnoller.com/researcher-blo.../john-w-oller/
2. This journal has no actual publisher nor is it indexed in PubMed. Basically it is no different than me publishing random theories online on my own website. None of the work from that journal is cited by any reputable publications elsewhere. Is this your definition of “scientific, peer-reviewed” sources?
3. The author of the paper that you shared, Stephanie Seneff, is an editor of the journal (see point #2 about self-publishing). She’s got zero scientific qualifications in infectious disease, epidemiology, or any other scientific discipline related to COVID. She also spews a lot of conspiracy theories about GMOs. Her latest is that Glyphosate causes Covid. https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/co...e-and-covid-19

Any clarification will help, thanks.

Or cyclists and helmets. The most idiotic thing I see are cyclists who hang their helmet on the handlebars as they ride around ... so the helmet is protecting the handlebar in the event the cyclist has a crash?

My buddy got an appointment for second shot in Surrey, they didn’t say which it was until he was there. Got Pfizer as first and only Moderna was at the location he showed up to. Walked and he said a bunch of people cancelling on site as well

The total population getting their second shot will likely take much longer than the first did, as they are seeing in the states

Is this behavior justified?
Is it because they think Pfizer is the best? or they just don't want to mix and match?

Should we be concerned about this?

As I said before my preference would definitely be to get two of the same. Not only for any future concerns but for travel etc. If I’m going to take it I’d like it to have the least negative effects possible
