RE: Freddie
How is it possible that the entire world has been hypnotized into fearing this relatively harmless virus? How have I escaped that fear? I don't watch the news for one, or any videos coming from MSM sources. Your poor Grandma is in greater danger of dying of loneliness than she is of that bad cold that is supposedly going around. Complete fabrication all of it. I suspect the new quadrivalent flu vaccines are the cause of people dying from a cold, which is the flu vaccine that Italy used for this flu season. I can't find out where it has been used in the US, but I do know it hasn't been approved for anyone over 65. Babies can have it, but not the elderly! Today I'm going to try to find out if it was the vaccine used in China. Don't get any vaccines! None! What vaccines are mandatory in Greece? If your Grandmother had a flu vaccine, then you might be right to be afraid for her, depending on which version. Check her medical records for this one:
In September 2019 was made available for the first time in Italy a “cell-based” flu shot, called VIQCC or QIVc, that is produced from cultured animal cells rather than eggs.
VIQCC is a quadrivalent flu vaccine that contains 2 type A viruses (H1N1 and H3N2) and 2 type B viruses."
I apologize if this is not what you want to hear - most people don't want to hear it. But I feel strongly that I need to say it to as many people as I can!
Well, I am mostly concerned about the elderly and people with underlying medical conditions I wouldn't want to feel guilty for anyone's sickness (let alone death) in the case I might have been a carrier and contaminated someone. The first 15 deaths in Greece are a fact, so yeah, it scares me and I panic when it comes to my loved ones (especially Grandma). She had 2 vaccines this year, one for the seasonal flu (but I don't know which one) and one for herpes.
Mandatory and free vaccines in Greece are the, if I remember correctly those for pneumococcus and meningitis, mumps, measles, rubella and chickenpox (at least that's what a parent site says). Also, girls are eligible for a free vaccination against the HPV virus.
Thanks for the information. It's really hard to find vaccine info now.
Flu vaccine is NOT mandatory, and the others are? I'm mostly worried that flu and pneumococcal vaccines might be worsening covid severity, since both of those are heavily pushed on the elderly in the US, and it's unlikely one has a hospital stay without receiving both of these unless you've had them recently outside the hospital.
I can understand protecting your grandmother. I would do the same. But she must be so lonely!
The others are mandatory for children, I remember getting two shots while at school (during organised vaccinations, a medical team would visit our school and vaccinate the kids, but I don't remember what these were for and my child medical records are at my parents' place now). The flu vaccine is something usually old people have every year, but it's not mandatory. The gynecologist told my sister (who was pregnant when she was hired at school for this year) that she didn't really need to have it, she only had to be cautious as much as she could when it came to personal hygiene at work. The good thing is she only worked for a couple of months and in January she was eligible for a pregnancy and maternity leave, she was lucky to leave before the flu and corona frenzy.
Grandma I think will be ok. Her son (my uncle with his wife and children) lives upstairs and my mum and dad live next door, they have a shared garden where they can gather. Because we live in a village, she can go out to walk on the street or visit the neighbors in their garden, she walks to the cemetery (which is nearby) very often to visit my grandpa. Her brother with his family also live two houses further. She feels lonely, but she is way better than the poor elderly living alone in cities with no one to talk to or help them with the shopping and stuff like that. I still believe that countryside people are blessed even during this craziness!! And I consider myself very very blessed and lucky to live in a village 5 km away from the town, we enjoy nature, peace and quiet without having to miss out on modern comforts.
Oh, I wrote too much, didn't I? I hope I didn't tire you! 🤗
Oh goodness you did not tire me with that comment! I live at home with one severely disabled son, who is sweet and smart, but not a big talker. We are not allowed to gather in groups of any size here. Ridiculous. I'm lonelier than your grandmother! thanks for the conversation!
