I mean, their vaccine is just saltwater and spit just like the Russian one. And they didn’t let anyone catch it at all (or at least they tried) wich means there isn’t a natural resistance either.
So in the end they completely fucked their economy (and the economy of other countries with it… But thats a different story) and just postponed the unavoidable outbreak of covid making it essentially worse than any other country. Oh and thanks to the new outbreaks covid has definitely mutated a lot…
How I hate the lazy deflection and caping for Israel in your comments.
The Gaza Health Ministry is considered to be reliable for casualty reporting due to independent verification by groups that monitor the conflict like Human Rights Watch and the UN. They release specific casualty data including names, ages, and ID numbers.
The only argument that Israel or their allies have used against their released casualty numbers is that they’re run by Hamas (the Gaza government), but oddly those people, yourself included, never seem to dispute Israeli numbers for the same reason.
You continuously link to conspiracy sites and random parties social media posts. Your evidence is a joke.
Show me an actual source from an organization that works in Gaza, saying the numbers are falsified, not another Israel apologist cooking numbers on Twitter.
You make a claim, that the Health Ministry is including the Al-Shifa numbers in their data currently, without citation, and use that claim to extrapolate that any numbers must all be false.
And again, your only argument is, “it’s Hamas and you’re eating it up!”.
Israel has released plenty of numbers of persons killed throughout the conflict, both on their and on Hamas’ sides.
In October the Gaza Health Ministry claimed 471 people were killed by an Israeli missile strike on a hospital. Widespread credible (independent) evidence proves a small Hamas rocket missfired and hit a carpark near the hospital, causing relatively minor damage (there was a large fireball, but it was mostly rocket fuel - which is far less damaging than an explosive payload intended to kill).
None of the credible evidence was able to put a number to the deaths in that accident but it’s highly improbable that 471 people were in the carpark. And it definitely wasn’t an Israeli rocket.
In other words - Gaza’s health ministry is not a reliable source. Some of the things they report are probably accurate but they have been proven to be unreliable. Don’t trust anything they say unless it’s been backed by someone more reliable (in which case, you might as well refer to the other source instead).
At best, the ministry failed verify facts (e.g. was a large missile even fired at all?) before reporting what happened. But I think that’s being too charitable. For example where did they get the 471 number from? I think they made it up. I don’t have proof but it’s the only believable explanation.
Worse though - they haven’t retracted the claim. Mistakes are understandable… but failing to admit someone in your organisation made a mistake is unacceptable.
Everyone knows this. We have seen the response of “World Leaders”, and it’s to appoint an oil executive to be President of COP28 so he can falsely and perniciously claim that ‘no one’ is actually saying to get rid fossil fuels.
Governments have already decided that they are not going to miss out on any sweet sweet potential economic activity (read “money generation for politicians”) until it gets so bad that they have to to survive. They’re going to play chicken with each other and employ police to put down protests until we finally do something about it/them ourselves.
Especially the single-use ones are really bad for the environment. I don’t mind this.
However I think vaping is a good way for people to detox off cigarettes (by slowly reducing nicotine content) so banning vaping as a whole phenomenon is a bad thing IMO. Perhaps it could be prescription based for people who are trying to kick cigarettes.
Not much of a surprise given how far Boris Johnson’s nose was up Russian rear ends. His election campaign advisor (and Brexit pioneer) Dominic Cummings used to live in Russia before he popped up on the UK political scene, then towards the end of Johnson’s tenure he was given a tour of the UK’s nuclear weapons facilities for some reason. When it came to Russia’s initial invasion, the UK issued sanctions against Russian banks - except for a 28 day exemption to Russia’s biggest bank. The end of this exemption coincided with Russia making their first withdrawal, and I’m not sure the sanction was ever put into place.
