Coronavirus spreads. But don't panic! (topical thread)

Coronavirus spreads. But don't panic! (topical thread)
Australian Church leaders have raised concerns the proposed Oxford Covid-19 vaccine may include
cell lines from an electively aborted foetus.

Australian official dismisses Catholic bishop's objections to Covid-19 vaccine.

Australia's deputy chief medical officer, Dr Nick Coatsworth, has downplayed concerns from prominent
church figures in Australia that some Christians could refuse a Covid-19 vaccine on ethical grounds.

His defence of the vaccine follows a warning from Catholic archbishop of  Sydney, Anthony Fisher, that
Catholics would be presented with an "ethical dilemma" if the vaccine was proved successful as it relies
on cell lines from an aborted foetus.

Fisher called on the government to "pursue similar arrangements for alternate vaccines that do not raise
the same ethical concerns" about the formulation of the vaccine.

In a letter to the Federal government, the church leaders warned that "while some will have no ethical
problem" others "will draw a straight line from the ending of a human life in abortion through the cultivation
of the cell-line to the use for manufacturing this vaccine. Even if the cells have been propagated for years
in a laboratory far removed from the abortion, that line of connection remains" they said.

The church leaders called for the government not to pressure Australians to use the vaccine if it goes against
their religious or moral beliefs.  (What a pity their "religious or moral beliefs" seemingly didn't apply to the
hundreds of paedophile priests they knowingly harboured for decades.)

—Well, that's just fine and dandy ain't it?  Are we gonna have these apparently brain-dead Catholics running
around infecting everybody else with coronavirus?  Don't they understand that most other vaccinations are
also based on cell-lines developed from aborted foetuses?     Just how fucking stupid are they?

PS:  This arsehole Anthony Fisher is the same one, as bishop of Sydney, who was dismissive of three young
sibling victim's distress—one of whom committed suicide—saying that people such as these were "dwelling
crankily on old wounds".  Does he maybe mean like the wounds his mythical hero Jesus allegedly suffered?
