USA has some of the oddest Conspiracy theories.

Yesterday I heard a paramedic suggest 80% of their staff had a vaccine. The 10-20% who didn't had "Valid medical reason for not being vaccinated"

Really pleased the radio host pulled up and asked what the allegedly Legitimate reason are? ( Under 1% of the population has a legitimate "medical" reason for not getting a covid vaccine according to a nifty professor of infectious diseases (Prof Allen Cheng I think)
Sadly even amazing Victorian Paramedics can fall in the trap of legitimizing Covid conspiracy rubbish by using the words reasonable concerns. .

We have vaccinated dozens of patients with a history of anaphylaxis or multiple allergies which the person suggested was a "reasonable concern" for their staff to refuse vaccines[bighmmm] My Defibrillator, Oxygen and the jab for anaphylaxis have never been needed or used

The world can be an odd place if you want it to be one[thumbsupbig]

Yeah, just look at the people who post here or buy Land Rovers.:Rolling::Rolling::Rolling::Rolling::Rollin g:

I wonder if as a result of a comfortable western lifestyle and nothing life threatening to worry about gives rise in the human psyche to make stuff up to be concerned about. In the 1930s for instance with no money and hunting rabbits to suppliment meagre food supplies I doubt that anyone would have had the time to consider conspiracy theories.
Somewhere there has been a switch because of our comfort to distrust authority and make up fantasies about how the "gubbermint wants to take my rights/money/jobs" and its far worse in the land of the free.....

Love a good rabbit fillet Tote. BBq way up in the mountain make it even sweeter[biggrin] Comfort zones are very relative. One of the kids jabbed today had me going OUCH. 10km at 4 minute pace or better is his daily. Bet this inspiring young person would kick 99% of our butt even if we were as young.

The kids these days quote is well over done for several thousand years sir

PS- two years ago I could have and did do that for 21.1 km. Always dreamed of doing it for the second half of my favorite distance.

PPS Conspiracy to work me-Thank you for updating your weekly stock management.Your stock management number/s: STH-130262, STH-130263
required by 21:00 Complete at 21:02 I was set to lodge the thing at 20:40- Vaccine deliver Batch number and defrost date had me scrambling back to work to find that required detail. Missed by that much [bigwhistle]

We just kicked over 1150 people vaccinated after a LONG day. Not all today thanks! My little conspiracy theory has 120 VCE kids getting vaccines in the morning - Not at my place[biggrin] I borrowed a place not doing Pfizer vaccine yet Evil and it worked- they do the hard bits now. Funnily they think I am nice giving them the vaccines to do it. Just work avoidance by my lazy bones[bigrolf]

Beer in hand now- just one as I back at it in the morning with my little crew :)

The kennels in Grafton where we got our dog from,10yrs ago,used it for tick prevention on all their dogs.

I must say I'm enjoying the covid vax conspiracies, as these days all I seem to see on TV is snivelling, like Charity for Cross Eyed Single Mothers, Dyslexic Posties Assoc., Bikies Who've Been Deprived Of Ashtrays On Their Motorcycles, etc. Now I too can feel like a victim, everyday I wake up and think, great I've survived the vaccine shot for 32 days or whatever it is, yay!

I'm not worried I'm loving it, when people start the vax conspiracy theory with me, I hold up my crossed fingers on both hands and say I survived for weeks so far.
