How can I debate with you, if everything I send "is a fraud, it's sponsored by the government, it's a fraud, they're lying and doing frauds"? I mean, I don't know how to argue with you, if you prefer trusting some random politically-supporting-your-views blogs more than peer-reviewed neutrally sponsored studies, made in countries with weak or strong governments, social-democracy or wild capitalism, still all coming to the same conclusions. It really feels like an ideological attempt to resist the facts for protecting something you used to believe in.
It's incorrect to say that Pfizer "admitted" that the company and its partner BioNTech did not test whether their mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine reduced virus transmission prior to rolling it out, because Pfizer was always clear it did not test whether the vaccines reduced the risk of transmission among already-infected individuals.
But the trial did show the vaccines reduced infection risk in the first place, so reduced the risk of onward infection.
Within months of the vaccine hitting the market, researchers in the UK (https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-health-coronavirus-pfizer-vaccine-tra-idUKKBN2AQ1A7) and Israel (https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanepe/article/PIIS2666-7762(21)00127-7/fulltext) began publishing studies suggesting that the Pfizer vaccine was reducing transmission of the virus.
In February 2021, for example, Israeli data (https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)00448-7/fulltext) showed a sharp drop in infections among healthcare workers within 15-28 days of receiving the two-shot Pfizer vaccine series, indicating the vaccine was not just preventing symptomatic disease, but also preventing the virus from being passed from person to person.
I can send more data. I can also send some blog text with an eagle flying in front of the yellow flag on the article image, which sources the claims with "just think about it fam" saying same shit, if you trust that more.
Step out of the bubble.
P.S. According to right‐libertarian literature there is a considerable divergence between the application of consistent libertarian principles to this issue by academic libertarians and the strident opposition to vaccination programmes and vaccine mandates expressed by people who profess to be libertarians in the public‐political debate: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9111279/
