Posts: 2344"J&J Vaccine Pause Creates 'Perfect Storm' For Misinformation".
For anyone who actually gives a shit and wants to be bored to death with the actual specifics of the impact of Leukocytosis, immune response and inflammation or specifics of disseminated vascular coagulation and thrombotic thrombocytopenia pathophysiology without the interruptions of fabricated misinformation, feel free to DM for explanation and references. If you're that nerdy, we'd probably be friends.
The really concerning points are discussed in this article with analyses from various media-communications experts:
"CNN. ABC News. The New York Times. Fox News.
Those are the publishers of four of the five most popular Facebook posts of articles about the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine this week. They're ranked 2 to 5 in total interactions, according to data from the tracking tool CrowdTangle.
The No. 1 posting, however, isn't from a news organization. Or a government official. Or a public health expert.
The most popular link on Facebook about the Johnson & Johnson news was shared by a conspiracy theorist and self-described "news analyst & hip-hop artist" named An0 maly who thinks the pandemic is a cover for government control. "
Millions of Americans were already skeptical of the vaccines before the Johnson & Johnson news, and a vast online network exists to feed that skepticism with bad information and conspiracy theories.
Often, misinformation peddlers with a specific agenda will fill in knowledge gaps with false information, knowing people are desperate for any information at all.
Even after that guidance does come out, which officials said they hope will be in a matter of days, it's likely this development has ripple effects, especially driven by those who have made fear a business model and built their brands on vaccine skepticism.
Full NPR article:

The FDA and CDC are dropping the ball big time and letting the agents of misinformation dictate the conversation. They should probably be making press releases 5 times a day right now, giving a play by play of everything they're doing to clarify the investigation process and explaining relative risk data. Instead, they've allowed the poorly informed to perpetuate their half truths to an impressionable public.
The tweet here by statistician Nate Silver sums up their logical failure.
By @NateSilver583 April 13
6 cases out of 7 million people. What a disaster. This is going to get people killed. And it's going to create more vaccine hesitancy. These people don't understand cost-benefit analysis. They keep making mistakes by orders of magnitude.

Now in 2021, the handling of what any insightful person could easily predict to create "a perfect storm of misinformation" has been incredibly mismanaged. We need public health people to direct the response to a public health problem and we need them to do it much more effectively. Strike 2.
Three strikes and you're out, Game Over for the good guys.

"Imagine if the whole world listened to Trump back in Jan-Feb 2020 when he suggested the same action (stopping flights from China). Remember what the expert libtards like Pelosi, Schumer and the loonies on CNN were blaming Trump for? Even Macron and Merkel were crying Trump is racist haha. Some people are really slow, and people who vote for them are even slower and complete stupid!" That was on the news that "France suspends all Brazil flights over Covid-19 variant fears (https://www.france24.com/en/europe/2...-variant-fears). Is this a racist action?
Care to stay on topic? Anything else you say just shows how brainwashed you are. Remember, it's totally ok to admit mistakes and say "I was wrong, I am learning".

Posts: 796Almost needless to say. But I got again pessimistic.
* the british / Kent variant of the virus, makes the current 3rd wave in Germany the biggest by far.
* rapid tests are fairly unreliable.
* vaccination rate (while having picked up in the past 1 week) is still shitty.
I would be happy if things can open Aug 1st. Yet, Sep 1st is more likely. And everything is still extremely uncertain.

Unfortunately there are some crooked lawyers who specialize in searching for the little hidden bit who could allow you to oppose and not to pay the fine. So irresponsible guys with a massive delusional ego and with enough money to pay the lawyer can try to escape the law. I wonder what will these lawyers do if one day, the family of some people killed by the stupid driver came to see the lawyer to show him the picture of the kids who will never see their parents again.
