According to a shark advocacy group, the production of a COVID-19 vaccine could result in the deaths of nearly 500,000 sharks worldwide.

Shark Allies, a non-profit aimed at raising awareness about shark conservation, is warning that commercial production of a vaccine with an adjuvant could wipe out hundreds of thousands of sharks because of an ingredient found predominantly within the livers of these deep-sea creatures.

There are different adjuvants for different vaccines, but some vaccines for influenza strains are made using squalene oil, a naturally occurring substance found in the livers of sharks, as well as in humans and other animals. At least one company looking to produce vaccines for COVID-19 has said they will be using adjuvants. GlaxoSmithKline that they intended to produce 1 billion doses of their “pandemic vaccine adjuvant” in 2021 for several vaccine collaborations they are involved in. GSK has used AS03, an adjuvant produced using shark-based squalene, in influenza vaccines before.

And then they find out the vaccine doesn’t work meanwhile killing all those defenceless animals ridiculous

MEGLADON ACTIVATE

NO

We need a massive natural disaster event to knock the human ego down a few notches... This doesn’t sound like it’s for a vaccine...sounds like we’re just blatantly just killing off shit. Today it’s sharks tomorrow it will be something else.

Maybe you steady on a noxious weed like the milk in dandelions instead of killing animals

As we advocate for the protection of biodiverstlity, the mass slaughter of sharks is not acceptable.

mini_bubbly Um, Nooooooooo.

Where’s all the save the animal people, if this was pigs or cows going to be slaughtered they be blocking the roads for every trucker, these same people going to stop boats?

OH FFS! who comes up with this horse shit?

all meat product should stop to 'SAVE' nature

Advocacy group member should step forward in the name 'safe sharks' as alternative

😭

mini_bubbly There are so many vaccines coming. Let’s pick one that doesnt cause damage to the balance of nature

Poor sharks. I would prefer another option, but if the other option takes longer to produce, then it is not worth it. Poor sharks, but have to die to see the human beings earlier, let it be. Although, governments should have a plan to re-populate the shark population

This disease is fake, the media is trolling the public. Remember to wear a mask during sex.

Another fear mongering tactic by MSM!!!

Was their a reason given for not using the plant alternative?

And..your point is?

Insanity at its Best! Leave the Sharks alone! What do they have to do with this Covid HOAX

CTVAtlantic Now would be a really great time for a real life “Sharknado”...

It's just turbo.

Fake news

Definitely not getting one now

There has to be a better way

CTVAtlantic Say what!?!?!?!

HCQ doesn't require shark!

Leave the sharks alone.

CTVAtlantic CTV 💩💩💩 China

Sure cuz it’s made in China! We’ve had a flu vaccine for 17 yrs now and do you still get the flu? All forms of Covid. Hence the positive test results.

Some of you may die. But that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.

Sorry sharks but, humanLivesMatterMore

The barbaric nature of the human being just continues to grow. 'Swim away, Sharks, swim far, far away.'

BS

Don't forget about the people starving to death because the supply chains for food have been disrupted.. stay home save lives right?

Religious groups call double standard on Quebec's COVID-19 capacity regulationsMontreal is currently in 'orange' COVID-19 regional alert mode, and that means places of worship may only host a maximum of 25 people at a time. Bars, movie theatres and concert halls in Quebec, meantime, are allowed to function at a higher capacity. It's pretty batshit crazy that Québec is allowing any type of assemblies of 250. I can see how the religious are confused. But at least they aren't the plague rats in this province so there is that. Proof that hypocrites are everywhere, even in government...CHP ChristianHeritageParty Permanently close all churches everywhere.
