Thank you Johanna ‘In your unqualified perspective’ Benesty for the worst TED talk I’ve ever listened too. Yet another non-qualified person spouting uneducated opinions about what everyone else should do. So to take TED’s precedent I will give my opinion. Our bodies have the most complex immune response system that has ever been created. All you need to do is keep your own body healthy and your body will do the rest. So how do we do that:
1. Exercise
2. Lose Weight
3. Don’t smoke
4. Minimise or eliminate sugar and alcohol
5. Supplement your health diet with Vic C and D3
Notice how no one is promoting ‘lose weight or stop smoking so you don’t burden the Health Services’ but instead they are promoting ‘take a vaccine that breaches the best tried and tested International regimes that for ALL other vaccines, medical treatments and medicines requires 10 years. I wonder why? which option makes the ‘Elite’ the most money!!!
Thank you for taking the time to read this, I am Pro-Vaccine but only when it complies with Internationally recognised 10 year testing standards.

these thinngs are no brainers. also healthy people still get covid – a body can be as healthy as it gets, if it`s confronted with a novel virus, the immune system can`t react properly.

What is this. The whole world is not going to get the vacine. You need tools to identify virus quickly. Vacinate in outbreaks and vaccinate exposed areas where the virus never seem to die out. Then The virus will die out. Look up “eradication of small pox” granted you cant see the corona virus symptoms but the principle is the same once you have effective tools to detect it you can treat that area.

Australia has pretty much eradicated the virus without a vaccine but through Draconian style order and authority and by closing our international/domestic borders. If every country did the same then the virus would have been eradicated globally within 6 mths. That would have been logical common sense to do that but corrupt big business and government didn’t want to do that. There’s no profit in being healthy. This video just screams of manipulative vaccine and collectivist propaganda!

I’m 64. I’m compromised with COPD. I work in a very public place. I’m a veteran. Where do I rank in the distribution? Give me a choice, one vaccination for me or for a child, regardless of who is more susceptible, I’m going with the child. But even before that, the health care workers. We need to keep them in place, or else everything falls apart. Anyway – whatever the formula is for the vaccine share it, manufacturer it wherever it can be done, and don’t count profits. I trust that we are not trying to gain profits (yet), because I believe in humans. But let’s get it out there, please, as quick as ‘humanely’ possible. Wow, what a challenge. Nice video Ms. Benesty, but I’m also not totally onboard with everything you said. But that’s because information changes daily, and in one day you are already behind. Cold storage is already becoming overcome for example. I think the order of immunization is the most important thing to work out quickly. What was it??? A 91 year old woman in the UK received the shot today? Why was that? I am glad for her, but what was the reason for the news article about this, and the reason to give her a shot? There’s not a lot of logic to this ‘solution’, or perhaps not enough logic shared with all of the rest of us. Anyway, sorry – you are making me think more about this, but I think our biggest problem will be the fact that we are ‘over’ infected already, and it takes awhile for the symptoms to manifest. So we don’t have a real handle on the number of actual infections yet, but we will soon I suspect. I’m typing to give myself therapy, mental at least, not so much in response to you at this point. I just don’t want anyone to give up hope but I think the cure will take awhile to realize… just because so many people have already been exposed. Hopefully the ability to treat people has actually improved. I need to quit typing. That’s making me sick enough.

Nice actress!! Well or not very good actually she’s reading or however she’s not emotionally connect with the speach, it’s obvious on the behaviour, posture, voice tone.
Moderna, Novavax, AstraZeneca, Sinovax…. ???? Who paid for this video?
Strong well-nourished immune systems can handle the virus, but that’s not interesting to talk about, it doesn’t move billions…
It’s all just about business. Novavax grown 541% since march! Moderna 436% estimates 1.5 B in profit in 2022!
Concerned with public health? With pour countries?? yeahhh!
But be careful, I’m maybe just a maniac conspiracionist!

0:3 The recent situation happening in the world has changed our life style a lot, and we really need to learn how to do earn money online. What if you want to setup your own business, but you dont know how? I recommend you this guy, he will setup you auto proffit site with done for you with 9000 monthly income. It is a ready made website auto profit site, managing it wisely you earn from 9k monthly and your expenses will be 1950$ (one time payment) for the installation and 600-700$ for traffic which you need to send monthly. Speaking about traffic you will not need to worry about this- as we usually send this amount and we continue maintaining it. It is not the system that you just press the button- and here is money, as you will need to manage it. w h t s a p +7 9 6 7 1 5 7 0 5 8 1

This is a very intelligent approach however I have a question. In a world where we can’t figure out how to distribute resources evenly and we are changing our environment so fast that thousands of species are going extinct and very possibly one day we ourselves because of our own actions why would we need to stop something that is only killing a small part of the population? And if the isolation is killing our economy and more importantly not allowing us to live life more people are depressed, drugs, suicide all these things are going up why don’t we just let C19 do it’s thing and we get heard immunity the natural way and they’ll be a few less of us which will be sad but Life Will Go on. What’s wrong with that?
