That article deals with inadvertent subcutaneous injection - not intradermal injection, which is different. (Intradermal injection is also mentioned but it is not the subject of the piece).

That report is about the potential problems when inadvertent subcutaneous injection occurs while trying to give an intramuscular injection. The Thai medical authorities are not using subcutaneous injections, they are using intradermal injection. There are significant differences between the two. As mentioned in the article linked to in a previous post: However it is also more difficult to administer and requires a lot more experience, so is used much less often.

They're not my stats. Those are the figures from the article I linked to. It states: So it was looking at three different kinds of blood clots, not just VITT.

I think you're conflating subcutaneous and intradermal injection. That article talks about the hazards and possible reduced efficacy of inadvertent subcutaneous injection. While it does also mention that intradermal injection is not recommended by the manufacturer that's mainly because of the lack of data. Intradermal injection does not suffer from all the same drawbacks listed in that BMJ piece for subcutaneous injection. The article linked to below gives the findings of a study on using the intradermal route and says that: Intradermal administration of low-dose mRNA COVID-19 vaccine induces strong immune response, study finds While that study is only available on a preprint server, it doesn't alter the fact that intradermal injections have been used with various different vaccines in the past and were found in many cases to produce robust immune responses with a reduced dose while having minimal side effects. As explained in another piece about intradermal injection: Intradermal Injection However, it should be noted that it also mentions that:

There's absolutely no evidence in any of the reports that suggests she died from blood clots. But if she did, it would be much more likely to have come from the CoVid she was known to be suffering from than from the vaccine. See Guardian article below: Blood clot risk greater after Covid infection than after vaccination As it states, "Analysis of 29m people finds danger of infection with Sars-Cov-2 far outweighs the risks of having jab." The figures in the article show that you're about 10 times more likely to suffer from blood clots or ischaemic stroke after getting Covid, than after getting the vaccine. And those are not the only ways that Covid can seriously affect your health - and possibly kill you.

Actually "recent announcements" in both the UK and US say pretty much the opposite. They say that the vaccines are still providing good levels of protection, especially against hospitalisation or death and that booster shots are only needed for certain "at-risk" groups - not for the general population. As the quote below from an article on Yahoo! Finance states: 3 reasons why the FDA rejected Pfizer's booster shot for general population The same is true in the UK: COVID-19 booster jab invitations to be sent out Again, only at risk groups are to get boosters as the medical authorities say the vaccines are still giving sufficient protection.

It's true that there have not been any studies specifically looking at the combination of SinoVac or Sinopharm vaccines with a Moderna booster. But then again there hadn't been any extensive studies using Pfizer as a booster like that either and the government went ahead with that anyway. I can't see much difference between the rationale for using either one of these two almost identical mRNA vaccines as a booster shot. And as others have said, since there's no data, a doctor won't be able to give you any different information than what we already know.

That's changing soon, though. Latest Travel Rules And Restrictions 17 countries are being added to the list but unfortunately for us Thailand is not one of them.

I'm not sure what your point is. The age of consent on the USVI is 18. If there was any sexual contact there between Giuffre and Prince Andrew when she was 17 then it was automatically illegal.

What she has done is to be part of legal actions against the alleged main perpetrators, Epstein and Maxwell since 2005. The first time she and her lawyers talked about Prince Andrew's involvement was in 2011, so she didn't wait 20 years to talk to lawyers about it. She's actually been trying to pursue claims against him since 2014 but was never able to get a case into court before. But one of the main reasons she's brought this particular legal action now, and why it seems to be progressing further is because she was now able to file under New York's Child Victims Act, which only came into effect in 2019.

1. The report says: So quite clearly a person hospitalised because of Ivermectin toxicity. 2. Not a weak report at all, once again, a clear report of not one, but many cases of people being admitted to hospital due to Ivermectin. Here are also two more reports from the New York Times. In the first one, "a person drank an ivermectin formula intended for cattle and was hospitalized for nine days." Some Americans ignore warnings against using ivermectin to treat Covid. In the second, it is pointed out that there have actually been deaths from Ivermectin in the past (not related to Covid, but you said there had never been any hospitalisations in all history). Demand Surges for Deworming Drug for Covid Then there's this from Outbreak News. Ivermectin prescriptions up dramatically, Poison control receives five-fold increase in calls I'm not quite sure why you keep trying to deny reality. There have definitely been people hospitalised for Ivermectin toxicity and in the past (albeit pre-pandemic) there have even been deaths. Now, if you'd said that over the decades it's been in use, there have been relatively few deaths or hospitalisations from Ivermectin compared to the number of doses given, I'd agree. But you can't say there have never been any.

OK, if you don't like those links, there are others, as I mentioned. For instance: Person hospitalised after taking livestock medicine Mercy doctor sees patients with Ivermectin poisoning in rural Missouri hospitals As the second of those links states:

No, but viral vector and mRNA vaccines work in a virtually identical manner. They both simply transport strands of genetic code representing the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein into the recipient's cells. The cells then use the code as the blueprint to make multiple copies of spike protein. The diagrams below illustrate this. Only the very first part is different, where the make-up of the vaccine particles is described.

That's absolutely false. Here are just a couple of examples (there are plenty more). At least two hospitalized with potential ivermectin toxicity Man With COVID Overdoses on Ivermectin

Good job there are no experimental vaccines in use then. The inventor of PCR testing died in 2019 and he didn't say any such thing. As mentioned in the article below from fullfact.org: The inventor of PCR never said it wasn’t designed to detect infectious diseases

They're not doing a fourth jab in Israel (not yet, anyway). They are simply making contingency plans for the eventuality. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-09-12/israel-preparing-for-possible-fourth-covid-vaccine-dose

Why is it worrying, if you don't mind me asking?

Possibly due to the fact that a large proportion of those with two vaccinations are people with co-morbidities and those over 65, so are inherently more at risk to start with.

Well, not that this has been definitively proven yet but the argument that has been put forward for it, is that while the mRNA vaccines are good at eliciting an antibody response, they are not as good at inducing a T cell response as viral vector vaccines. Since there are no firmly-established correlates of protection for antibodies yet and T cells are known to be an important part of the immune system (especially for longer-term immunity) some virologists feel that a combination of mRNA and viral vector vaccines might give you a better all-round level of protection. See info from the Nature Magazine article below: Mix-and-match COVID vaccines

That's completely untrue. There have been infant deaths from Covid in most countries. For instance, Why are so many babies dying of Covid-19 in Brazil? There was also an infant death in Florida reported just yesterday (it's obviously not the only one in the US). Infant dies of CoVid-19 in Orange County

That's not accurate - only a minority of cases are asymptomatic. A fairly sizeable minority, but still a minority. While earlier estimates varied widely, from 4% all the way up to 81%, the latest figures I could find (as of August 13) put it at not much more than a third. Massive New Analysis Confirms Just How Many COVID-19 Cases Are Truly Asymptomatic

Not sure if it was just accidental but that comes across as a little misleading. So to be clear, this doesn't mean that 8.8% of double vaccinated people have died, it means that out of those that died, 8.8% had received two vaccinations. The article also doesn't specify how many of the people who died, became infected less than 14 days after their second dose. Nor does it say how many of the doubly-vaxxed Covid fatalities had co-morbidities - but in other countries (UK, US) it tends to be the majority.

And, as that article points out: Again, it's all about relative risk assessment. Give me the choice of a very small risk of a mild, treatable and transitory condition or a very small risk (albeit an even smaller one) of dying and I know which one l'd choose.

Actually more like 17% (16.63) according to the Our World in Data website. https://ourworldindata.org/covid-vaccinations

This is about the government vaccination programme. The government is not using Moderna - only private hospitals are.
