Us young people of the 1970s Vietnam era are now in our own 70s, and once
 
more we're at risk of sudden death - from self-centered young anti-vaxxers!  


IT'S KARAOKE TIME TEAM !
Capo on 3rd fret 
G D7
Well come on all of you big old men
G
Level four is here again D7
We've got ourselves in a terrible squeeze
G
Flying in Covid from over the seas (from the Chinese) E7
Jacinta's five million(Say goodbye to your daughter)
A7 Has work to be done (Goodbye to your son) D7 G
An' we're gonna have a whole lotta fun

[Chorus] A7 G7  D7 G
And it's one, two, three, what are we vaxxing for? D7
Don't ask me, our days are through G
Next stop is ICU
A7 G7 D7 G
And it's five, six, seven, open up the pearly gates E7 A7
Well there ain't no time to wonder why
D7 G Whoopee! we're all gonna die.

[2] Well come on doctors, y'gotta move fast Your big chance has come at last Y' kin get us in bed with tubes in our heads The only good oldie is the one who's dead And you know the end will only be When we're all in the ce-met-tree.


Graves for one day's Covid victims in Sao Paalo [3] Well come on Wall Street don't move slow Why man, this is virus-a-go-go-go There's plenty good money that goin' t' to be made Supplying vaccines to the needle brigade Just hope and pray that new Covids appear So you can sell more doses next year [4] Well anti-vaxxers this your big task When you're near old folks, never wear a mask Come on protestors, don't hesitate You can get us infected before it's too late Then you can be the first one on your blocks To have your mum leave home in a box. (To have grandad...)


Coronavirus symptoms

Coronavirus 2019 or Covid-19 is a contagious disease. The first known case was identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. The disease has since spread worldwide, leading to a pandemic.

Symptoms of Covid-19 often include fever, cough, headache, fatigue, breathing difficulties, and loss of smell and taste. Symptoms may begin one to fourteen days after exposure to the virus.

30% of people who are infected, mostly youngsters, do not develop noticeable symptoms.

55% develop develop mild to moderate symptoms.

10% develop severe difficulty breathing and need oxygen piped into their lungs.

5% of those infected suffer critical symptoms, and die of respiratory failure, shock, or multi-organ dysfunction.



A much higher percentage of old people develop severe symptoms. If there had been no vaccination in New Zealand, about 50,000 Kiwis would have died, mostly those 75 years old or older. If there were
not enough ICU beds as well as no vaccines, 200,000 Kiwis would have died.

Anti-vaxxers

The Pfizer vaccine used in New Zealand uses messenger RNA to assemble copies of the
corona virus's spike proteins in our body, stimulating our body to make the corresponding Y-shaped antibody proteins.

I
n about one vaccinated person in a million, these synthetic virus spike protein molecules cause inflammation of the heart muscle. This upsets anti-vaxxers.



However the natural spike proteins of invading covid viruses cause inflammation of the heart muscle in about 8 unvaccinated persons in a million. Derr!

There was also a totally unfounded rumor that  mumps vaccine caused autism, and this has led to the neurosis that all vaccines are dangerous.
