1. So Fiends of Public Healthcare Union Turf and Goebbels Network are upset about it. Who cares? Not anyone with an IQ in positive territory.

   1. Simple sold or the union. Increase your union dues and use the money to provide free shot for those who want shots.

      Socialism for socialists.

2. The so called vaccines are garbage. A sensible health authority would ban them.

3. This covid vaccine charge is essentially a tax on stupid!!

   1. Yeah, pay a fee to bring your life to a premature end. Win, win.

4. Brilliant move.
   By the way,what is the current fee for being MAID?
   Other than your life?

5. Well done! Taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook for other people’s paranoia (sound familiar all you “free healthcare” folks?) If getting a covid shot gives you peace of mind and helps you sleep at night…start paying.
   Set the price slightly above the cost for a therapy dog.

   1. Speaking of Canada’s FANTASTIC FREE government healthcare … I can get my COVID booster for FREE!! down at my local CVS. Ohhhhhhhhhh Mommmaaaaaaaa … “the USA is the only industrialized nation that doesn’t provide basic healthcare for all their people”. Puhleeze.

6. After the multi-jabbed have paid for this, they’ll be even more passionate and intensely certain of having done the right thing.
   How bitter will their disappointment be as those near to them become increasingly sickened.

7. Fair enough. We had to pay several hundred dollars in Saskatchewan for the shingles shot, an actual vaccine (serum) proven to be 90% effective against a real health threat. The Covid shot is nit a vaccine in the true sense of the word, is not very effective (30 to 45%) and is proven to be harmful to some people.

   1. You need to double check that. You’re quoting relative risk. If you look at absolute risk reduction of shingles over 5 years, the shingles jab reduces the risk to 2-4%. If you don’t get the shingles jab your absolute risk is 2% over 7-10 years. In other words the shingles jab increases your risk of getting shingles, in fact potentially doubles it. If you don’t know the difference between relative risk and absolute risk I strongly advise you to go and learn it.

      And the shingles vax also has risks too especially nerve damage. My neighbour got it and ended up in hospital in the ICU for two days. Why would you want to pay to increase your risk of shingles and risk those “rare” adverse side effects as well?

      Grok is very good at giving absolute and relative risk if you don’t like doing the math yourself.

8. Kinda like having to pay to get injected with bleach.

9. Most Canadian’s reaction to adversity is to cower in fear and pray the government comes along to help them out.

   Keep the proceeds from this and use it to build a new hospital, Airdrie could use one..
