    I get my shots just about every year including this one. I’ve been sick 3 times since October. To be fair, I have a suspicion it’s been a mild case of covid, a rough go of the flu, and a cold. But fml it’s been a rough few months.

    Personally I always forget to book an appointment, because I have to do that in BC. I’ve tried to get the shots when walking by a random pharmacy a few times, but the first time the only had flu shots, the other times I was told to book an appointment, even though the signs they put outside said I didn’t need one… :|

    Just booked one now.

    There are infinite reasons, many bad ones but my fuck when an article doesn’t get how grammar works, well, yeah, that’s a pretty explicit example of “experts don’t know shit.”

    Yes it’s a whom here. “Who do Canadians trust on health care?” Fuck me sideways, if you, and your editors, don’t know how English works, why the fuck should we trust you on facts?

    • John Lorimer Campbell is an English YouTuber and retired nurse educator who has made videos about the COVID-19 pandemic. Initially, the videos received praise, but they later diverged into COVID-19 misinformation.[1] He has been criticised for suggesting COVID-19 deaths have been over-counted,[2] repeating false claims about the use of ivermectin as a COVID-19 treatment, and providing misleading commentary about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines.[3]

      • Did you know that the CDC approved Ivermectin as a treatment for COVID last year? I bet you’re one of those dipshits that still call it “horse paste” (a Nobel Prize winning medicine). I take Wikipedia with a grain of salt, it being about as reliable as network news, and just as controlled by certain initialized groups. Do you accept network news this uncritically?
