    I have never got any flu shots, ever. But I've already been brainwashed by the media so I have to get it. I read an article that says 60 to 70 % of the population needs to get vaccinated and the rest will be ok.

    Now as for you Mr. Norilsk please don't change, you make awesome wheeling (emm... overlanding) trips. I'm afarid your side effect will be installing 2 more brake levers for the front wheels..

    You have so much radiation from Chernobyl that I have to do Geiger meter readings when you leave. Viruses have nothing on you. Plus think of all the std’s.....you are a incubator of the cure!

    I recomend a single lever (single for life right).

    Should have done this for the rear but I know you used the parking brake cable to I get it. Would be cool to swap out the two stock levers for this but one for the front and one for the rear.

    I would say that it's ok for us to meet anytime on a parking lot in a plaza with timis or similar, as long we keep distance and maximum people allowed,
    After we are out of the gray zone lockdown.

    Takes minimum 5 years to create an effective vaccine. The only reason this is being pushed is profit. Drug companies got and are getting paid the bazzzzzlions to create and push this BS. There are already effective drugs on the market that 100% stop transmission and your chance to get this oh so deadly (0.3%) pandemic. Cant give those drugs to us though they are not being sponsored by the gov with big bonus to the companies.

    :spending:

    I fear what will happen to everyone the media has convinced this is good to go, get 2 rounds of it!@ Goal posts will move again, this vaccine will be useless. Get 4 rounds of the next one!

    :crapstorm:

    Sorry sometime I just cant keep my mouth shut. :mad:

    Apparently vaccines are normally low-profit margin products. So yes, the drug companies are doing this only because of high-volume pre-orders from various national gov'ts. I do believe however the normal development process can be accelerated by throwing a percentage of GDP at it (think Manhattan Project, Apollo program, etc.).

    Under normal circumstances with 1, maybe 2 companies working on it (I think it's usually 2 years or slightly more). It's a lot faster with the entire world working towards the same goal.

    It takes a long time to build a house. Unless you have 300 people doing it at the same time

    This is not entirely true,
    First of all, this video contains a bunch of propaganda.

    Similar treatments to this were studied and approved, and they are super cheap, like steroids.
    Most youtube videos contain propaganda.
    Feel free to believe everything you watch on youtube and Facebook at your own risk.


    Second, the findings of this study are similar to the hycroxocloroquine.
    After proper studies done - more then one entity corroborating the results, and following proper standards- and vetted it was found that people were still dying at pretty much at the same rate.
    Other entities will study this better and once corroborated properly, it will be approved.
    Lots of times some people come saying they found the miracle portion, and lots of times, the effect is minimal or side effects serious.

    Decision makers cannot make a decision litely that affects millions of people.

    Third, it's not true the covid vaccines are super expensive, it's stated that each dose will cost between 10 to 35$ per dose.

    If someone is gonna say that the covid vaccine is expensive, after we spend close to 100$ in gas to go offroading, then.. It's not even worth to argue with that person.

    I think we can all agree that this entire situation is a shit sandwich. Regardless of views on vaccines (this can get into the weeds) and the government (this can definitely get into the weeds), this whole thing blows and I want to believe (Really really really trying to believe) that the things put in place are trying to keep us all "safe". Like I said, a very large shit sandwich.....



    Please don't get this thread locked......

    I believe @Norilsk has something in the works that will get everyone out of their house and enjoying the snow. IT does depend on the travel restrictions during the lockdown occurring on the 26th. But we will see what happens.

    @Norilsk I may have a prize for the event.....

    That's not true anymore either, these new vaccines use mrna technology, totally different than previous technologies used.

    There is plenty of information about this on the web, lots of it on scientific jornals and acredited news jornals. But yeah, you won't find much on you tube or Facebook. It's not exciting enough and it doesn't generate enough drama. And yeah accredited science jornals are boring.

    Governments don't know what they are doing. This is all new to most and they are going by what others think they should do to keep people safe. Governments also bend things for political agendas. Case in point, TTC buses are packed every morning at 6am on my way to work, who cares about the safe distance there. Why won't they add more buses or street cars if they cared that much? Costs them too much.
    Construction is allowed to keep working when everyone else shuts down. Why? Unions give all levels of governments millions in donations every year. Also they need construction tax dollars to help keep things afloat.
    If they really cared and were concerned, things needed to come to a complete halt across the board, not half way.
