UK Health Minister Stephen Kinnock MP claims vaccines are 100% safe. This claim has prompted a challenge from Dr. Vernon Coleman.
Dr. Coleman challenges Stephen Kinnock to a live, national television debate on the safety and effectiveness of vaccines, including the covid-19 vaccine. “He can bring as many advisors as can be fitted into the studio. And I will argue that he is wrong. Just by myself,” Dr. Colman says.
Britain’s Health Minister, Stephen Kinnock MP, has allegedly told the BBC that the Government was concerned about vaccine uptake and hesitancy, which he said had increased after the covid-19 “pandemic.” He said campaigns explaining “the benefit of getting vaccinated and the fact that this is 100% safe would be brought forward as the Government sought to win this battle against the conspiracy theorists.”
He said the Government was also committed to combating disinformation and conspiracy theories about vaccines on social media.
“It’s our job as the government, and everybody else out there that is on the side of common sense and reason, to make this case and to win this battle against the conspiracy theorists, and misinformers and disinformers out there who need to be dealt with and need to be silenced,” Kinnock added.
Did Kinnock really say that?
Now, I’ve been studying vaccines for over 50 years and my conclusion is that to say that any vaccine is 100% safe is like saying bombs never kill people or that no one has been killed in Gaza.
I suppose it all depends on how you define “safe” but I would argue that there isn’t a vaccine in the world which is 100% safe – though this isn’t the first time that such an absurd claim has been made on the BBC. (To be clear, my dictionary defines safe as “not likely to cause or lead to harm.”)
The big question is: “How does Mr Kinnock explain why governments around the world have paid out billions of dollars to families of vaccine-damaged patients?”
And why does his government pay out huge sums of money to those who have been damaged by vaccines if vaccines are 100% safe?
And what’s all this about “silencing” people?
