LV101
We have different stats -- Hospitals were empty here and pretty much everywhere except during a few peak periods of time. I know a few people who were hospitalized here and California. California was overloaded in couple areas because of the border needing treatment -- info per the medical community. Of course Los Angeles hospitals were busting at the seams during certain times.
I don't know about Astra Zeneca but Pfizer and Moderna have cleaned up with profits. Moderna's profits were up 13% within the first 2 weeks of distribution of injections. Pfizer has made great profits. Federal gov't has paid for all this -- the taxpayer but money well spent if the vacs work.
You're making ludicrous statements. Any virus can be dangerous and deadly especially to the aged and infirm. Of course some younger people have been slammed hard with it. I never indicated otherwise.
Did lose a family member during COVID - last June and the hospital was empty - so desperate for patients and low staffed.
I'm personally very cautious and limit my association with anyone - have looked homeless for a year now.

51% of medical care workers are not being vaccinated. That's shocking.
I'm the only one in my social circle who is still being a hermit. No social life - if a workman comes to the residence for an emergency - audio system goes boom, microwave or dishwasher on the blink (something critical) the technicians and workmen literally think I'm a loon. Huge sliders/doors wide open for fresh air flow - high winds - it's very cold but I don't care. I do have construction done on the exterior - pool redone, cool decking whatever it's called, planters resurfaced/painted but safe compared to inside. I wear 2 masks (before ever recommended or use one with a face shield. I ask everyone to keep applying hand sanitizer and I stay as distanced as possible from people.
I know quite a few people (senior age) who have contacted COVID and have been hospitalized. Lost one friend/one family member.

I can tell you for a fact that Pfizer-BioNTech is not making a pile of money from the pandemic. I am in for 500 shares at 40.00 dollars a share and it then slid to 33.00 dollars . It’s up a bit now .
it does pay a nice 4 percent dividend though.

Pfizer is the one I wanted to buy stock in - did it split or something? Why would Moderna be doing better - both are mRNAs.

Trudeau will take it, the vaccine plan here has been an utter shambles because he was late ordering it and didn't order enough. His first plan was to order it from China. This is what you get when you elect a drama teacher as "leader".
The US vaccinates more people in a day than Canada has in total.
I don't think there is anything wrong with the AZ vaccine, the stats on issues doesn't amount to any proof of any issue but politicians have used it as a football and would rather see people unvaccinated if it means they get to score some points.

Well here in the UK our vaccination programme is well ahead of any others. I am 65 and am due to have my second jab on Friday. I haven't heard of any problems caused by the vaccines .
The Astra Zeneca does seem to make people feel a bit rough for 24 hours ( l experienced that after my first jab) .
However l haven't heard of any other issues
