Letter: Message in a bottle

"So, what should I do? Should I go ahead and get this new "messaging" jab, being propagated by an anthropologist who wants to reduce the global population with vaccines?" - Markus Kämpf.

Markus Kämpf of Simbithi writes:

So, oldies above 60 in South Africa can now register for the coronavirus vaccine or, more precisely, an mRNA jab.

I wonder how many of those oldies, a group that I belong to, know that the m in mRNA stands for messaging.

Messaging? Sounds a bit different to the vaccines that I got back in the 50s and 60s.

If statistics by organisations such as the CDC are anything to go by, the survival rate for people that contracted the coronavirus lies at 99.7%.

Of those 0.3% that actually died, 94% had pre-existing conditions.

With all due respect, but with death being a part of everyday life, isn’t that negligible?

Yet even so, here we are wanting to vaccinate the entire world because of this allegedly so deadly virus.

Wouldn’t it be better if we redirected the resources to something more meaningful such as, according to UN statistics, doing something about the 25 000 people that die every day as a result of starvation? What am I missing here?

What I also find a bit odd, is that the great anthropologist Bill Gates is standing at the helm of this whole “save humanity with a vaccine” hysteria.

I suppose he really is a hero, if only it wasn’t for the TED speech that he gave in February 2010.

On the subject of the global population Bill Gates said at the time, and I quote, “if we do a really great job on new vaccines, we can reduce that (population) by 10 to 15%.

So, what should I do? Should I go ahead and get this new “messaging” jab, being propagated by an anthropologist who wants to reduce the global population with vaccines?

After profoundly thinking about it for the better parts of two seconds, I decided to give it a miss for the time being.

Call me a conspiracy theorist if you like, but I have decided to sit back for the next couple of years to see what happens to those who were in the queue before me.

In the meantime, I will donate my dose to Julius Malema. He can have the jab publicly administered so as to inspire others, and then thank me for my generosity here in The North Coast Courier.

So kind to think of Julius before yourself! – Editor.
