Coronavirus vaccine
 
I have had 3 vaccine shots in les than a year. The administration is talking about a 4th!! I get all the shots because I’m old but what does this tell the anti vax people? It’s kind of like saying the vaccine does not work. What the heck is going on?

Had my third yesterday, been a pretty lousy day. I don't know either man.

That was the plan all along....Indefinite boosters.

Nick Triesch 12-03-2021 05:43 PM

My point is a forth shot on the way tells people they don’t work! Heck, 3 shots tell them it does not work. The administration says everyone needs to be vaccinated then federal judges stop the mandates! Sorry, just frustrating. The media says get vaccinated then the judges say no!

Sounds like a good plan!!

BK911 12-03-2021 06:25 PM

I just recovered from covid.
Got it from somebody who was vaxd.
I had a 99.5 fever for 2 days, muscle aches for 2 days, and no smell/taste for 4 days.
He had 102 fever for a week and overall much worse off than me.
Weird, ehh?

It means the vaccine only lasts a few months, like most virus vaccines e.g. flu. That's different to bacterial ones like tb that last much longer.

There are a number of vaccines for other diseases that require a sequence of multiple doses.

It may be that these particular vaccines work best with two doses several months apart, instead of two doses 20 days apart. There hasn’t been time to test all the different dosing schedules and figure out what is ideal. It is clear that the two initial doses in quick succession provide very good protection (in most people) for around six months, at which time, for best protection, a third shot (booster) is needed, and that booster raises neutralizing antibody levels by (if memory serves) around 40X.

We don’t yet know if this will end up being an annual shot, or if the three dose regime is all that is needed.

We also don’t know how much the Omicron variant reduces the vaccines’ protection, but it is likely that it does reduce it to some extent, hence all the more reason to get boosters.

It would be nice if we knew all this stuff, but we don’t yet. If you want to wait until everything is fully known, then you’ll have to wait for years. Best to take sensible steps in the meantime.

Yes, it's tough to not question the logic of the slippery-slope bait & switch from an unethical multi-billion $ industry that is not liable for death and damages from their "vaccine" product that does not even stop transmission. Does not even stop death.

But at least you can risk death by taking it.
And if the "vaccine " kills you then the virus can't. - Smrat....

Sugar pills would have been more effective.... and less deadly

island911 12-03-2021 09:55 PM

This virus has been circulating around for 2 years now. The first year had 37-38% exposure. Many never knew they had it. Year 2 has to put us well over 50% exposure.

It is quite possible that the only thing making the vaccines look even slightly viable is the overlap of natural immunity with vax'd. (at least some vax'd people will have strong immunity from actual contact/infection.)

So yeah, sugar pill may have been better.

When ant-vaxxers say a vaccine "doesn't work", they're saying it doesn't work 100% of the time, for 100% of people, for 100% of their life.

To which medical professionals say "well....., duh".

.

Straw man much?

Because what I hear them say is that there are risks. -well, duh. And yet the POTUS, among other pro-jabbers, have come out to say that these vaccines "are safe! Period!" - oh really. No exceptions?

I also hear the anti-CV -vax'ers, among others, say that the durability is more like a therapeutic than a typical vaccine. (got boosters?)

All in all, they are saying that these vaccines are riskier than any other mainstream vaccine, and that they are less effective than typical vaccines.

Since the vaccine is ineffective, it can never be used to reach herd immunity.
By ineffective, I mean it cannot keep up with the variants, and also cannot prevent transmission of the virus. All it can do is prevent severe illness in people at risk, with immunocompromised immune systems or co-morbidities.

Therefore, it should never be forced on the entire population, and be recommended only to people at risk.
Let natural immunity and cross-immunity take care of the rest. I am not an antivaxxer and got my two shots, but the buck stops here as far as I am concerned.

It is evident that the number of deaths would be greater since the number of vaccinated is greater, but what about the number of deaths/1000 vaccinated?

Tucker Carlson has reported extensively on this subject. It is interesting that his entire staff has been vaccinated. Maybe he gets a different vaccine than everytone else?

The exact same thing that has been happening for the past 90 years. This is nothing new.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influenza_vaccine
Quote:

Influenza vaccines, also known as flu jabs or flu shots, are vaccines that protect against infection by influenza viruses.[3] New versions of the vaccines are developed twice a year, as the influenza virus rapidly changes.[3] While their effectiveness varies from year to year, most provide modest to high protection against influenza.[3][4] The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that vaccination against influenza reduces sickness, medical visits, hospitalizations, and deaths.[5][6] Immunized workers who do catch the flu return to work half a day sooner on average.[7] Vaccine effectiveness in those over 65 years old remains uncertain due to a lack of high-quality research.[8][9] Vaccinating children may protect those around them.[3]

Vaccination against influenza began in the 1930s, with large-scale availability in the United States beginning in 1945.[10][11] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[12]
And on top of the similarity to the Flu vaccine, there are others that require boosters albeit much less frequency.

https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/adults/rec-vac/index.html
Quote:

Immunizations are not just for children. Protection from some childhood vaccines can wear off over time. You may also be at risk for vaccine-preventable disease due to your age, job, lifestyle, travel, or health conditions.

All adults need immunizations to help them prevent getting and spreading serious diseases that could result in poor health, missed work, medical bills, and not being able to care for family.

All adults need a seasonal flu (influenza) vaccine every year. Flu vaccine is especially important for people with chronic health conditions, pregnant women, and older adults.
Every adult should get a Tdap vaccine once if they did not receive it as an adolescent to protect against pertussis (whooping cough), and then a Td (tetanus, diphtheria) or Tdap booster shot every 10 years. In addition, women should get the Tdap vaccine each time they are pregnant, preferably at 27 through 36 weeks.
The anti-vaxxers are going to believe what they want to believe. No matter what happens, they'll come up with a reason to maintain their stance.

I'm aware of an older couple who are grandparents. They refused to get vaccinated. Their daughter told them that they could not come visit and see their granddaughter unless they got vaccinated. They did not get vaccinated. They then had some vacation coming up, and the destination or method of travel required vaccination, so they promptly went and got vaccinated. Apparently, their vacation was more important than seeing their daughter and granddaughter.

Another friend of my wife who has been heavily resistant the entire time, socializing and getting around a bunch. She thought the whole thing was a hoax, was anti-mask and anti-vax. She's a little older (almost 60), a little heavy, and in generally moderate health. She got a new job where they were really pushing for vaccination. She then had a friend offer to take her on vacation to a tropical location, but the travel and/or destination required vaccination, so she ran right out and got vaccinated (it's amazing how motivating a fun treat is). She has, since her second vax, been positive for covid. She ended up in the hospital, and is having heart problems. We've heard that her heart will recover, but that she'll probably be on heart meds for a year until her heart fully recovers.

I have had my third jab. I've traveled internationally since I was a kid, so I've had lots of jabs that were required for travel. I think I've only had the flu shot 2-3 times. I think I've had the flu once or twice. I'm just not that concerned about the flu. But, I am concerned about CV. It's too new, and they know too little. Too many people that don't fit the "old, fat, sick" list end up in ICU on a ventilator and then die. It may not be a high percentage, but I'm not ready to die and I don't want to end up in the hospital, so the shot is a small price (at no cost) to pay to presumably minimize the impact of the virus.

This is not a 100% guaranty of anything, but if it has a high chance of helping, I'm OK with it.

more straw..

"Anti-vaxxers" are not driving the push-back to this insane vax push. - to call them Anti-vax-mandaters would be on point.

We have a HUGE percentage of the population that has survived the C-virus, and then of course have natural immunity. Forcing the jab on them is like having survived the seasonal flu and then having to take the vaccine for said flu - it's ridiculous. Add in to the equation the risk associated with these "vaccines" and job-loss coercion...

Total mortality over the course of the pandemic and the ongoing and unending response is the other side of the comparison.
