Vaccine coercion by governments and employers and the segregation pass are egregious violations of human rights and democratic principles. Perceptions are manipulated in order to extract public acceptance of these extreme measures. Science itself is enlisted into this authoritarian program, but what does science actually tell us?
In this article, Professor Warren Kindzierski uses data from vaccine trials and government health agencies to show that media representations of vaccine usefulness are often misleading.

Rapid appraisal of the usefulness of messenger RNA vaccines for sars-cov-2 Delta variant infections and implications for Alberta
By Warren Kindzierski, PhD
Summary: A rapid appraisal is presented here on the efficacy of messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines for Delta variant infections and implications for Alberta. Government surveillance data and other data from independent studies in England, Scotland, and Israel were examined.
These countries are further along in their Delta variant infection waves than Alberta. The data presented show that fully-vaccinated people aged 60 years and over are being infected, hospitalized and dying from the Delta variant. mRNA vaccines and the mRNA-produced non-sterilizing antibodies do not appear to be working as originally intended for the Delta variant. Published absolute risk reduction – a measure of reduced risk of mild covid symptoms – from vaccination is small for a person of average health or better (≤1.1%) based on Pfizer and Moderna vaccine clinical trials.
As for people aged 60 or older who are of average health or better, or those who have been previously infected, the evidence is weak that they need to be vaccinated for covid in Alberta. Requiring proof of vaccination for people to enter certain businesses and to attend certain events is not supported by science as vaccinated people can be infected by the Delta variant and transmit it to others.
