Turns out vaccination mandates are incredibly sexist
https://thegrayzone.com/2021/08/13/cdc-fda-women-covid-19-vaccines-menst...
Are you a woman weighing the risks of the Covid vaccine vs the extremely low chance of hospitalization or death from Covid? well turns out you're up shit creek.
Impacts on menstrual cycles are, it turns out, very rarely studied in clinical vaccine trials. Stated another way, the quality of COVID-19 vaccine safety data is better for men than it is for women, yet across the country, vaccine mandates make no sex-distinction and in practicality, actually fall more heavily on majority-women industries. In this way, it could be argued, women are not being treated equally under U.S. law.
And now, despite widespread reports of post-vaccine menstrual disruption, it does not appear the CDC or FDA are taking the issue seriously. I contacted the FDA press office with specific and detailed questions about widespread reports of menstrual dysregulation after Covid vaccination. After some back and forth, an FDA spokesperson responded with an official statement: boilerplate jibber-jabber that did not even speak to the issue of menstruation, much less state that all such reports had been investigated and dismissed.
Well, it's obviously all smoke and no fire right? What they used to call a case of the vapors.
symptoms have included hemorrhagic bleeding lasting more than a month; heavy intermittent bleeding for four months; passing golf-ball size clots of blood; and extreme cramping
But don't tell men that ladies. Nobody wants to hear about "female issues".
women concerned about the health effects of Covid-19 vaccines have been subjected to 1950’s-style dismissals and demonization in blatantly sexist terms that stand at odds with #MeToo era calls to “believe women.”
They now face the prospect of being barred from their educational institutions, prohibited from entering public accommodations, and losing their jobs unless they “choose” a medical therapy that has not even been fully approved by the Food & Drug Administration, which has left more than an insignificant number of their friends and loved ones struggling, alone, with surprise menstrual side effects, against which pharmaceutical industries enjoy a complete, multi-layered liability shield.
Which gets right to the heart of vaccination hesitancy. It's untested. It's exprimental. There are no long term studies so we don't know the long term effects.
members of any healthy society have the right to demand that such regulations be based on trustworthy evidence and moral reason; and where such regulations implicate fundamental liberties, to demand that they are no more invasive than absolutely necessary.
The severity of COVID-19 does not negate women’s need for a rigorous and trustworthy scientific appraisal of the benefits and risks they face if they accept a COVID-19 vaccine.

#Metoo is dead. The 2020 Presidential campaign killed it. n/t
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
I think that the groundwork for killing it was done
during the 2016 primary.

It's not only women
Female biology and medicine has been given
short shrift since the dawn of humankind and what information and understanding as has existed at one time or another generally reposed within the female community almost exclusively. It has been the province of not merely ignorance, but myth, superstition, misunderstanding, inappropriate projection and more. Among the many ill effects of this ignorance, misunderstanding and misrepresentation is that we have pretty much no baselines for anything whatsoever pertaining to female health issues. This leaves both the medical and scientific communities free to do a bunch of handwaving, shrugging, and doubletalk.
Worse than that, we've been running long-running uncontrolled and unanalysed experiments on all of humanity and especially women for ages now. The pill and assorted other hormonal therapies, lead based paint and leaded gasoline, flooding the environment and thereby the homan body with plastics, heavy metals, organohalides, and on and on. Women reaching child bearing age today have a biology, body chemistry and biomes unknown in the entire prior history of humankind. But cheer up, there's always prozac.

On the other hand...
Who knows? Not me. I do think the graph is clever though..
Heh, was thinking of writing a column on that later today.
I know that a percentage of male anti-maskers and non vaxxers are making that choice for image reasons, if only self image. Masking is cowardly, non-heroic, not he-man or macho; and vaccinations too; well, ED is sort of non-macho too, so that cohort might just start a run on masks and vaccinations if that information were spread widely enough.

So much for 'My Body, Myself'
My daughter (pushing 40) took the first Pfizer and experienced moderately severe menstrual issues - out of cycle heavy bleeding post-vax, and large clots. Says she is aware of other women experiencing similar issues, including bleeding in women well past menopause.
Was enough to have her decline the 2nd shot, says there is no way she would recommend it for younger women or anyone contemplating having children.
Nothing short of criminal that people are being coerced into this - military mandating it and various states mandating it for state workers, first responders & etc. with no distinction made as to whether someone has already had Covid and recovered - in which case there is NO upside for getting the vax as such people have a far superior (broader and long-lasting) natural immunity, only risk.
Governments (with notable exceptions like Mexico and Florida) have increasingly been attempting to carry out their corporate handlers' bidding, moving swiftly from carrot to stick - resistance and awareness have been increasing though...

After seeing his presentation I thought Michael Green might be some re-incarnation of Gerry Spence, but it seems Spence is still alive, so maybe not...
