dock leaf 142 Report post Posted November 19, 2021 Because the vaccine does not stop us catching covid or spreading it, the vaccine passports are useless. Us vaccinated people only have a 13% better chance of avoiding covid than the unvaxxed If we are slightly worried about avoiding covid at the races - then the only way to have a safe event is for people to show a very recent negative covid test. Ideally the saliva test at the gate, or even better would be the breathalyzer if comrade allows it. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/covid-19-coronavirus-breath-test-device-developed-dunedin-childcare-staff-try-it-out/SSFPQ7GN27DWVOSHIDTFUIRSPM/ The vaccine passports are useless when it comes to covid health.

Not quite right, latest research from Oxford shows both main vaccines are very effective for 6 months at preventing transmission with waning after this period but still highly effective at preventing serious cases. We only need to look to NSW for evidence of how effective they are at preventing transmission, NSW R# is estimated to be under 1. The fact cases in Auckland havent grown exponentially suggest the high vaccine rate is reducing transmission.

Yep your right there, has caused divisions, between friends, family, and workmates, how can that be a good thing, sad state of affairs and I see the farmers on the warpath with their protests, good on them ,the way it's all heading, should we really be worrying.

The Oxford research is trying to spin an utter failure into a positive by quoting what are meaningless stats,outside Auckland (in NZ) AND inside China the R# is zero ,quarantines are the only truly effective method, and when they have failed ,the spin merchants start feeding us positive inspirational messages.There is no more effective method guarunteed to increase the R# than a vaccine passport and the associated relaxation of restrictions.Waikato and Northland are showing clearly that the only way forward is to BAN AUCKLANDERS, they are toxic,exponentially toxic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking for a new job? https://www.racingnews.co.nz/nztr-covid-update/ So back to the question. If I’m a trainer or jockey can I attend race days? If I ride track work can I be on a racecourse to do the job I love? Industry has invested in my training and development. If I choose not to be vaccinated is that investment flushed because I’m effectively blacklisted. and given racing is primarily an outdoor setting does that not make these career limiting Restrictions OTT?

Well, we have proof that Fauci funded the lab, that's not up for debate. Finding the origin, if animal related, isn't hard. But it's been how long now? Doesn't take a rocket scientist to know how Covid was released into this world. But, no one will be held accountable, which is the shocking thing. Those in charge of containment have killed millions, but not a peep from anyone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
