How late is too late? How many years after our vaccinations will you still be saying that, like the onslaught of invisible planets, our fate is imminent? This is you saying things directly, so you can't get out of it by saying that others are making the predictions and you're just reporting.
You need to get a grip on the idea that when you make a prediction, time has relevance. |

Show us a picture of one of those tiny razors. Explain what they are and how they came about, otherwise you might as well be talking about dilithium crystals.

When they produce an AIDS vaccine I'll get one.
This year I'll get the Shingles vaccine, and a pneumonia vaccine. Because I'm not an idiot. |

No, there's really no chance that I'd scoff at science and reality the way that anti-vaxxers do. I'm fully vaxxed, boostered, never had covid, and am doing very well despite being a senior citizen and at risk in other ways. I haven't been sick with anything for years.
I'm a retired health care worker with a respect for health care measures, though, and you seem inclined to believe the weirdest, most oddball and counterfactual things. I think the smart money is on my choices rather than yours. |

Wonder why the anti-vaccine sheep have such a penchant for calling other people sheep. Probably just what they have been conditioned by scammers to do, I guess.

I do wonder how long it takes these 'tiny razor blades' to actually cut something.
When I shave in the morning, my razor cuts my stubble instantly- and that's a safety razor. Emre's silly claim involves weaponised, definitely non-safety razors. I've had two doses of AstraZeneca, and a Moderna booster, so these tiny razor blades have been swimming around in my bloodstream for almost a year now- and no signs of anything wrong with me at all. Very strange. What are the little blades of doom waiting for? Do I need to get 5G reception before they start turning me into sushi from the inside out? Oh, wait! 'Two months'! THAT'S what Emre's countdown means! In two months, the micro-dicers will activate. Right, Emre? Or do you have another explanation for the total lack of internal razor action I am experiencing? |

Thanks for that.
The article also has a link to a debunking of the 'tiny razors in vaccines' nonsense as well. It's worth a look- yet another example of conspiracy theorists lying and producing really, really crap science to get attention. Says a lot about Emre that he believes- or at least pretends to believe- this kind of bilge. |

Does Emre have any medical qualifications? Is there any reason to listen to his medical advice?

There's every need to listen to Emre's [medical] advice. Read, digest and do the exact opposite, then and only then will you be in a safer place with regard to Covid.

This is a serious question: You say a lot of profoundly stupid things in subjects of which you are utterly ignorant. That’s bad enough, but you never actually respond to any questions. Is there any reason at all anyone should respond to you ever again? In other words, why should anyone not put you on the Ignore list? What do you offer this forum other than silly trolling?

Making one unsubstantiated claim about the past does not answer the ridicule expressed for your other assertions and prophesies. Did the razor blades rust away? Do they, like a Sasquatch, defy photography? It might surprise you to discover that many here can read what is written, but this does not mean the same thing as believing it. Not to be a burster of bubbles here, but I modestly suggest that if you are concerned about the failure of your message, you're looking in the wrong place.

Been a while since my booster shot. My cardiologist says my heart function has improved.
Guess the anti-vaxx crowd was wrong. |

Last weekend, I was at the airport, and went through the metal detector.
If I was full of tiny razor blades, I should have set off every alarm in the place. Instead, I walked straight through without so much as a beep. I'm also lean. Emre, have you considered the possibility that this claim is complete bollocks? No, of course not. |

IIRC (and I certainly can't be bothered to go back to look it up) he did link to reports of named people dying unexpectedly. Needless to say he provided no evidence whatsoever that these deaths were linked with the vaccine, nor that there have been any more such deaths since the vaccine was rolled out than prior to it, and ignored posts pointing this out.
