Safe bet that Flyboy hasn't been vaccinated and won't be unless the men with the butterfly nets catch him. Now he has a partner in crime in Shawny who may also be a little bit anti-vax. Interestingly, though, Flyboy & Shawny haven't interacted in this thread despite their common interests, so you have to wonder whether they're 2 people or 1.

Does Flyboy wear a tin hat?

I think Flyboy and Shawny are two excellent posters entitled to their opinions and its not healthy creating an "us against them culture". CoVid has created this vax vs antivax theme pitting different opinions/posters against each other and I find it a form of bullying when posters are singled out for having a minority/different view and IMO everything is still unresolved in terms of vaccines and outcomes and thats from novice opinions all the way up to the top end to medical professional opinions.

A pretty good snapshot on the current state of play. Worth a read IMO.

What does the data show about ivermectin for treating COVID-19 in people? There are some promising findings in critically ill patients, but more high-quality data needs to be collected, particularly for those with mild or silent COVID. That’s currently in progress.

Agree. It’s a great pity that people feel the need to resort to put downs and attacks on the integrity and intelligence of others in order to push their own agendas. The value of this thread has been demeaned as a result imo.
Reality always wins in the end.

There is an interesting piece of academic software that can establish that, it was originally written to identify plagiarism but it's advanced analysis exposes when posters have too closely matched characteristics like when one person posts under multiple pseudonyms.

But I think it would be cruel, because statistically there will be several bipolar people on here posting under different identities.

In any case, they aren't publishing science or fact despite sometimes wanting it painted as such, they are just publishing opinions and opinions can be shared.

Actually, if you want to win a debate in an online forum using two identities and posting arguments for and against is a great way to garnish support from both sides of the debate, if you are so inclined you can steer a debate towards your preference. But that plagiarism software will expose that, your language is your language of thought, you can't change it. But the tactic is the forum equivalent of Dorothy Dixers, which for me greatly devalues the utility of web forums, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc., etc.. as those sites are rife with such tactics..

Mav, you are one of the first to pull others up when you don't like the words they have used in a post yet you think its ok to write this sort of online character attack singling out 2 posters who don't share your view. And the really sad part is you post it completely out of the blue. 

Very disappointing post and thankfully you're behavior is in the minority on this site or i would find another to use.

Appreciate your post Elwood. If only others had your level of integrity and manners the world would be a much better place.

No Probs Shawny, its a forum for opinions not put downs and I may not agree with posters opinions but will always defend their right to have an opinion if put forward in the right manner and both you and Flyboy always argue your views in the right manner and are valued members. I think Cookie nailed it with his post ....

I'll disagree and the stats show why....The many of us is mainly in the older population....think about 66% over 65 years of age had the flu shot this year.
According to Flutracking, only 45 per cent of Australians 18-64 in 2021 have had their flu vaccine – compared with 71.8 per cent at the same time last year.
Some of this is a delay resulting from the two week exclusion period surrounding vaccine shots, I think you'll find the Flu shot stats catch up as more people pass the 2nd vaccine shot.

I know my local doctors are pushing getting the flu shot, once you are two weeks past your second Sars-CoV-2 shot.

However, there is also an issue this year, in that the reduced presence of Influenza due to the widespread use of masks has meant the type of flu shots being offered are more generic than previous.

Quick curiosity - anyone who has kids is required to get them vaccinated against a whole heap of things over a 4 year period, starting from about 6 months old.

Without the vaccinations, they are not allowed to attend child-care, kinder or school.

Where are the protests about this (you can't tell us what to put into our kids)?

There seems to be a pattern - no drinking at pubs, so instead people will congregate outside them, drinking.  Wonder why this then becomes a banned activity.  Parents and kids at parks, no masks, no social distancing with parents just meeting and talking to each other.  Then wonder why this is banned.  Construction industry disregards maximum numbers onsite.  Wonders why tea-rooms/compulsory vacc is introduced.

Pretty easy.  Follow some easy rules and we can all get out of this rubbish way of living more quickly, more easily and with less restriction when vacc targets are reached.  Your 'rights' are no more important than mine, so just f#@$% do it, stop carrying on as if you or your opinion about this matters - it just makes life harder for everyone.

Maybe, though, it is just an extension of a whole heap of other things.  The tax act was once quite thin, but due to 'loopholes' needed to be expanded.  Parliamentarians once resigned when they broke standards, so maybe that's where it is breaking down.

I don't usually have strong opinions Elwood and prefer to live and let live ( just ask Paul lol).  I think I may have too many good friends who are in the very front line of emergency and ICU and it upsets me what they are going through now and what the consequences of the unvaccinated are being projected to have in the future.

It was explained to me that the baby boomer generation are more community minded where as later generations are more the me, me and me minded. Whilst there are always exceptions perhaps its true.

Very Violent protests in Melbourne with building workers getting the rubber bullet treatment, be interested in what Krudd and Shawny think of proceedings. Police have been over the top and Andrews should have responded to the workers questions a bit earlier instead of making them wait and get frustrated which has led to violence.

Curious what were you there for?

Fencing staples and netting clips; I had to repair one of the stock fences.  I could have got them off the shelf at our rural supplier (an essential business) but I preferred click and collect.
