How do you feel about fluoride in water supplies?
Keeps my teeth clean, I'm all for it
This is basically why the Netherlands doesn't add fluoride to drinking water, even though it would be a great idea to improve health at basically zero cost.
You fundamentally can't medicate people without their informed consent. So we don't, and we add fluoride to toothpaste, which is more expensive and not as effective, but it's much more ethical.
They should just put 5G in the flu vaccines like they did with COVID so I can get an OTA update with the latest virus definitions
Great idea!
Ignoring the consent issue, you are going to waste a lot of vaccine. And you can't measure dosage very well, so may end up over or underdosing people. Not to mention people might have allergies or side effects which you'd need to account for.
It's why we switched to chemtrails for distributing the gay pathogen.
No, it doesn't really work that way and trying would be pretty impractical given current vaccine tech. Maybe one day, but not today.
Nano bots!
NANOMACHINES SON!
I cannot be vaccinated in this way because it causes a severe reaction. I think there are many unsolved problems that preclude introducing these kinds of substances so broadly.
I don’t believe it works by ingestion.
Ah yes, I too start my day by snorting half a cup of tapwater.
That's not how vaccines work. Gotta be injected or snorted I think idk I'm not a scientist
Considering all the failures we see with water distributors just faking tests, I fully expect that this would just lead to someone dumping a bunch of live virus in the water supply lol
