You would probably get less downvotes if you provided some cites for these claims.
Also, Occam's Razor to me indicates that people and governments entirely reasonably seized on vaccines as a way out of the mess last year, no grand conspiracies or intentional manipulation needed.
- NoPie 4y agoI think it will be the opposite. We really don't have much proof that vaccines reduced transmission. It could be to some extent but how meaningful was that? We also know that some governments but not all governments implemented vaccine mandates. For example, the UK was pretty lax on them but Germany was very strict. Occam's razor indicates that apparently some governments didn't have scientific basis for mandates. The opposite that they really had all scientific proof but somehow hid that from the public sounds like a conspiration theory and does not cut the mustard.
- native_samples 4y agoThe citation for most of the claims is the vaccine trial reports themselves. As for not affecting transmission, I'm on my phone so can't give you links right now but just search Google Scholar and you'll find them. It's obvious anyway isn't it, just look at case numbers. People chased the vaccines because of the promise of effectiveness. That was reasonable. Going further and making up claims with no basis wasn't.
