The question is how fast — and if we’ll take what we’ve learned from the past two years and apply it to the next emerging pathogen. In conversation with TED current affairs curator Whitney…

You cannot vaccinate in the middle of a pandemic. If you do you will create escape variants, and these will be coming from the vaccinated, not from the unvaccinated. The more you vaccinate with a non sterilizing vaccine, that does not stop transmission, you will always create escape variants which will prolong the longevity of a pandemic. You protect the vulnerable and you let the rest of the population get this virus, and the young population will get use to this new pathogen and it would already be gone if we would of tackled it in this way, just like every pandemic that has ever plagued us, unless it was a pandemic of unsanitary properties, then this can go for ever until we figure out what we are doing to create it. Also 75% of all of our pandemics in all of recorded history comes from un eating, trading, and hunting animals an destroying their habitat. We are breeding the flu every year, that is why it is still around, so are colds. Geert Vanden Bossche had predicted this, and the more you vaccinate the more you medicate and take all freedom from people’s lives, and big pharma are laughing all the way to the bank. Also the vaccine they made killed over 19000 people so far just in the US alone, verified by the CDC, and many more injured from this atrocity which can’t even stop you from getting infected in the first planc, can’t stop you from spreading it either, and can’t stop the vaccinated from making new variants. This vaccine has killed more people in a few months than all of the vaccine ever given in the past 20 years.
Christian Williams
December 7, 2021 at 10:07 pm
The countries that are the most vaccinated are the ones that are in trouble right now. They have the most cases, and the most death from this virus, like Israel. Get educated or get medicated. Vaccines fro a virus that can change and mutate as fast as this is futile and never works. Specially with a vaccine that does not stop transmission. The only thing to do is to better our health by changing our habits, and to use prophylactics when somebody either starts getting sick or goes to the ICU. Absolutely do not vaccinated young adult or specially children as they are the way you get out of a pandemic. They are the ones that will mop up the threat.

@Anna Schneider In what reality to you live in? Populations who have little immunity to a new dangerous virus breed more variants and spread it further. Who do you think to influence with your denial under a TED Talk video where we value the work of scientists? You do not care about the populations who do not have access to the various vaccines, including against many other past diseases by the way, and you ask US to grow up?

Different opinions are not conspiracies. For example a year ago suggesting that it may have come from a lab was a “conspiracy.” In August people were still being banned on social media for suggesting that booster shots may be coming and they were here in September.

_As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” And Jesus answered them, _*_“See that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains. “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come._*
*_“So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place ( let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let the one who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house, and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak. And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short. Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand. So, if they say to you, ‘Look, he is in the wilderness,’ do not go out. If they say, ‘Look, he is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather._*
*_“Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other._*
*_“From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near. So also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very gates. Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away._*
*_“But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one left. Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into. Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time? Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when he comes. Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions. But if that wicked servant says to himself, ‘My master is delayed,’ and begins to beat his fellow servants and eats and drinks with drunkards, the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know and will cut him in pieces and put him with the hypocrites. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth._*
_Matthew 24:3-51_
*_“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”_*
_John 3:16-21_
He, the First Born, the Alpha and the Omega, the Word, the Verb from the beginning of time, the Son of man, the Lamb, the Lord of lords, the King of kings, the only begotten Son of God, the physical manifestation of God, the Savior, the Messiah, the Christ, is Jesus of Nazareth!
All glory and honor and praise and thanksgiving and love to the Most High, the Lord our God, for He created all things, and by His will they existed and were created. Hallelujah!

Exactly; if the WHO reacted on time to announce a global pandemic and impose mask rules right away it didn’t have to be that bad. Meanwhile, Taiwan, a densely populated country of 23 million kept the level 1 for 1.5 years since the pandemic had started until an epidemic hit just for a few months; and ended by the end of summer. Taiwan has a poor access to international vaccines (due to the resistance from China) but zero domestic cases for more than a month. Prevention method, time to react and social responsibility over individual freedom are the key.

She failed to produce strong evidence when invoking the end of WWII and good for the interviewer for noticing the inefficacy of “words on paper.” But then kudos to Ms. WHO for coming back strong by pointing out a source of true leadership and change by noting “this is Ted women” and then listing all the ways women have demonstrated self-sacrifice, common sense and faithful hard work for the good of many, in contrast to the traditional model paved with blood in service to conquest and capitalism. Female leaders across the globe have a track record of success in times of crisis and the only men we need in power are ones with the humility to learn from success, irrespective of gender frankly. Pursuing war and money in the face of disease and death is beyond foolish. But if the takeaway from this pandemic is that we finally grind the greedy march of unregulated capitalism, consumerism and workaholism to a stop, then it will have been worth something. We were all being buried alive anyway. Maybe we can all, not just the 1%, finally be free.
