Hands down, @thevivafrei offered the best coverage of the #TruckersConvoy2022 protests and now the counter-protests against #TruckersForFreedom2020 in Ottawa.

Btw, counter-protestors interviewed can't seem to answer a question. Just not very knowledgable.

Counter-protestor against #TruckersForFreedom2020 in Ottawa told @thevivafrei: "You have to get vaccinated if you want certain rights."

That's not compatible with the concept of "inalienable" rights.

She compared it to laws about wearing a seatbelt.

The bottom line (cont)...

Bottom line is that the argument made by counter-protestors would only make sense if this was a "pandemic of the unvaccinated".

But it's not, as the recent CDC report on Delta immunity was forced to admit, and it never was.

*That* was medical misinformation, folks.

Rather than reply to each, I'll again explain why "pandemic of the unvaccinated" was a dishonest narrative.

Cited sources largely didn't differentiate between unvax w/ prior and unvax w/o prior infection.

Natural was 6x stronger than vaccine vs. Delta. cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/7…

One of the largest studies I've seen to date RE: Omicron, the conclusions of which are supported by significant research on smaller pops, suggests "no discernible relationship between percentage of population fully vaccinated and new COVID-19 cases". link.springer.com/article/10.100…

The answer from the media every single time a study shows empirical evidence suggesting they push lies is, "it's not peer reviewed".

But these ecological studies have led the way on our understanding of the true efficacy of mitigation measures and treatments.

It's fairly basic.
