COVID fight could return ‘to square one’: experts sound vaccines alarm
Reuters ^ | 05/21/2021 | Reuters

India’s export ban on COVID-19 shots risks dragging the battle against the pandemic “back to square one” unless wealthy nations step in to plug a gaping hole in the COVAX global vaccine-sharing scheme, health specialists said on Thursday.

COVAX, which is critical for poorer countries, relies on AstraZeneca shots made by the Serum Institute of India, the world’s biggest maker of vaccines. It was already around 100 million doses short of where it had planned to be when India halted exports a month ago amid a surge in infections there.

It’s Reuters so take it with a few tons of salt.

India has been very heavily using Ivermectin, Hydoxychloroquine and effectively in lowering the duration and severity of the infection.

It doesn’t matter who gets the china virus it only matters how many need to be hospitalized and how many die from it.

The entire world has been scammed by this horsesh*t and I am amazed how relatively few see this.

Get them Ivermectin and quit the sensationalism over “virus mutation”, which NOT a medical concern for either the vaccine or Ivermectin.

Except for South Africa, The entire continent of Africa is doing great without vaccines. Why? They all take the Sunday Pill. Why is South Africa sick? They’ve listened to the lying CDC and WHO and they’ve disallowed The Sunday Pill and Ivermectin

London (CNN Business)Covid-19 vaccineshave created at least nine new billionaires after shares in companies producing the shots soared.

Topping the list of new billionaires are Moderna(MRNA) CEO Stéphane Bancel and Ugur Sahin, the CEO of BioNTech (BNTX), which has produced a vaccine with Pfizer (PFE). Both CEOs are now worth around $4 billion, according to an analysis by the People’s Vaccine Alliance, a campaign group that includes Oxfam, UNAIDS, Global Justice Now and Amnesty International.

Senior executives from China’s CanSino Biologics and early investors in Moderna have also become billionaires on paper as shares skyrocketed, partly in expectation of profits earned from Covid vaccines, which also bode well for the companies’ future prospects. The analysis was compiled using data from the Forbes Rich List. Moderna’s share price has gained more than 700% since February 2020, while BioNTech has surged 600%. CanSino Biologics’ stock is up about 440% over the same period. The company’s single-dose Covid-19 vaccine was approved for use in China in February.

This is just a way to get back to the tyranny they had a year ago. They want to make it PERMANENT.

Can’t Bill Gates afford to buy them all a shot?

How much of India does he already employ? Consider it an employee+ benefit.

The vaccines are probably the cause of India’s latest problems (which are dissipating as they up their Ivermectin use).

The vaccine industry is totally evil and would think nothing of killing you and your family they would laugh about it actually

Start with that premise every time you read any story about “the vaccine “right now

Right now they fooled hundreds of millions of people into being their subjects - and they think they can keep this gig going for many years to come and profit handsomely

Put simply - don’t play their game

By all means talk to your doctor see what they have to say

but take it with a grain of salt when it comes to shots

Maybe we should just lock down everything now to get ahead of the curve </s>

I have donated my shot to India or to the vaccine-deprived minority community.
