COUNTRIES REJECT NEWEST VACCINE

On 29 January, the coronavirus vaccine developed by AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford was approved by Europe’s drug regulator, the European Medicines Agency (EMA). It was first used in the U.K. As reported on CNBC at that time, the executive director of the EMA said, “With this third positive opinion, we have further expanded the arsenal of vaccines available to EU and EEA member states to combat the pandemic and protect their citizens.”
Note the use of the word “arsenal,” which militarily compliments the frequently used phrase “War on COVID-19” that the mainstream media, politicians, and their bureaucratic “health officials” use to get people to obediently march off and follow their orders to fight in the COVID War. 
Last Wednesday, just days after the announcement there was a new vaccine being administered, Euronews ran the headline:

France, Poland, Sweden latest EU countries to rule out AstraZeneca jab for elderly

This announcement follows earlier recommendations by Germany and Italy to not allow older citizens to get the AstraZeneca vaccine. Just as there has been no agreement among countries as to safe social distance measures and mandatory mask-wearing, there was no agreement on what the age limit should be for this vaccine. Germany limited its use to those under 65 while Italy put the maximum age at 55.
The reason so many countries are warning older citizens not to get this vaccine is that the EMA approved the extensive use of it despite noting the vast majority of volunteers in the safety trials were between 18-55 years old. 
The EMA stated, “There are not yet enough results in older participants to provide a figure for how well the vaccine will work in this group. However, protection is expected, given that an immune response is seen in this age group and based on experience with other vaccines.”
Note the phrase “protection is expected.” Not scientifically verifiable. Not even most probable. Just “expected.”
The EMA confidence that “protection is expected” comes despite its admission that “currently available clinical trial data do not allow an estimate of vaccine efficacy in subjects over 55 years of age.”
It turns out less than ten percent of the volunteers in the safety trial were 65 years of age or older. As we note in this Trends Journal, elderly people are dying and suffering “side effects” of the vaccines, but this is dismissed and negated by the mainstream media.
The report last Wednesday included this boost of confidence from Sir Mene Pangalos, the company’s Executive VP of BioPharmaceuticals R&D: “Together with the new findings on reduced transmission, we believe the vaccine will have a real impact on the pandemic.” 
Note Sir Pangalos’s phrase, “We believe the vaccine will have a real impact.” 
If it were a scientific fact, it would not be about a belief system, but rather based on quantitative analysis. 
Feel Safe? 
Yesterday, it was reported that the U.K. variant of COVID broke out at a nursing home in the Belm district of Osnabrück, Germany, despite all of its residents having been shot up with two doses of the BioNTech-Pfizer vaccine. 
The report followed news that South Africa suspended its “shoot ‘em up” vaccination campaign after findings proved the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine had limited effect against the South African variant.
