How can they even compare them? Nobody even suggested that COVID is similar to the other two. Cancer isn't even a virus and left to their own devices COVID is probably the less dangerous one.

Also cancer isn't just a single disease, there are multiple conditions that can lead to cancer and they all have different chances of survival.

This is the most believable vaccine conspiracy I have seen yet. Everything else is stupidly far fetched, but replacing with saline and getting everyone to get on with their lives is a lot more believable then anything else I have seem. I wouldn't be surprised if that happened in some places in the world.

The part of the poster that says, "Time to install your update", as in, "inject you with microchips from Microsoft and here's a picture of Bill Gates in case what I'm saying isn't clear"? Is that the believable one?

I wonder what the motivation would be to inject people with salt water. We'll go to the expense of getting needles, people trained on how to use them, rent sites, sanitation, and I guess all of that so people can feel like their governments are doing good jobs and hope nobody involved tells anyone.

China and Russia both rolled out domestic pride vaccines that were far less effective than either mRNA kind, so, while not quite saline, something along those lines.

If it was saline, how come people got sick taking it?

People at work were always sick after they took the vaccine.

They definitely think Bill Gates is Jewish.

He's not. No Jewish ancestry and his current practice is a sort of casual Catholic thing, but he also thinks Dawkins is cool, so about what you'd expect. That's from a quick Wiki check, but still.

Because if he's on their poster...

I assume that they're asking why there is still no cancer vaccine?

[–] pHr34kY@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Gardasil has entered the chat...

[–] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don’t know him. Is that a Harry Potter character?

Not sure if serious... but it's a vaccine that reduces cervical cancer by about 70%.

No overcooked chicken vaccine, no falling down stairs vaccine, but sure vaccines are real.

If only we could make stupidity painful.

[–] a_mac_and_con@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately it's only painful for the rest of us.

be the change you want to see in the world

[–] Thorny_Thicket@sopuli.xyz -1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Didn't they make the vaccine in few days? It just took 10 months or so to get it approved
