Their voices are muted, while the pro-vaccine message is amplified. The debate has not been balanced by any measure. It would be more understandable if this virus was on the level of ebola, but it is not. Maybe if governments spent as much time, effort, and money on expanding the healthcare system to be capable of handling the "increased load", as they do pushing the vaccines to those not at exceptional risk, we could end this nonsense of lockdowns and have a more balanced approach to the pandemic overall. Thankfully, it appears that new treatments, such as the new Merck pill, will help to alleviate the pressure on the healthcare system and allow a less radical approach to the problem. "The debate has not been balanced by any measure. It would be more understandable if this virus was on the level of ebola, but it is not." Well, you are correct, COVID is not on the level of Ebola. https://www.cdc.gov/about/ebola/ebola-by-the-numbers.html Ebola total number of cases = 27,000 total number of deaths =11,000 It is unimaginably worse.

Popular Post Scott Posted October 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 8, 2021 14 hours ago, timendres said: Indeed. Tired of the "anti-vax" label. People who are a bit dubious of a vaccine technology that failed to garner FDA approval for 15 years, but it suddenly "safe", are simply being prudent. I have had many "traditional" vaccines in my life, but this new technology is something for which I have a "wait and see" approach. Maybe those blindly lining up for the vaccines should be labeled "anti-critical-thinkers". The earlier mRNA vaccines were never approved because they were never submitted for approval. It was only used in trials for other diseases. That, in part, is how we know the technology is safe. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdemundo Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Discussed ad nauseam for the benefit of those who ask questions but don't look for answers. 1) The ingredients of the current vaccines are very similar to the ingredients of vaccines used in the past. Side effects in vaccines used in the past occurred within 2 to 4 months of vaccine administration. 2) The mRNA and spike proteins produce are only in the body briefly. All proteins in the body are rapidly degraded into component parts in days or weeks at most. mRNA is very fragile, witness the requirements for transportation at cold temps, degrades even faster at body temp. 3) The horrible side effects of some prescription drugs occurred with drugs that were taken daily or more frequently for weeks, months, years. They were in the body and maintained at high concentrations for long periods of time. The vaccines are only in the body for a short period of time and only 1, 2 or possibly now 3 times, weeks apart. Even flat out poisons have a minimum harmful dose below which they are not dangerous. I have previously posted this arguments with references and anyone really concerned about long term effects would have fond this information in a few minutes of searching. Now of course there is the "anything is possible" argument, if you choose to believe in magical thinking no argument can calm your hysterical fears. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree though that people have a right to be weary of experimental vaccines. The term should be Anti-experimental- vaxers. It would be unwise not to ask questions with any new medication you are injecting into your body. Problem is (IMHO) the "skeptics" ask questions as a rhetorical device but never look into what the answers might be.

Popular Post cdemundo Posted October 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 8, 2021 First this is from LetsGoBrandon quoted by 9999999, I couldn't find the original post. "The host cell will then swell with spike proteins, and release them into the blood stream or body fluids outside the cell. " The cell releases the proteins into the extracellular environment where they are degraded as all proteins eventually are. The mRNA will also degrade even more rapidly, the amount of mRNA coding for the spike protein is limited and there is no source for more, it came from the vaccine right? So the process is limited in time with no mechanism for making it permanent. For DNA vaccines (Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca) the vaccine-DNA makes its way into the nucleus of our cells where it begins working (and is treated the same as our own DNA). It is copied into a piece of mRNA that will then travel into the cytoplasm and be translated by ribosomes into spike-proteins. " The DNA makes mRNA and mRNA makes spike proteins which are limited by the same processes as with the mRNA vaccines. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/johnson-johnson-covid-19-vaccine.html "The adenovirus pushes its DNA into the nucleus. The adenovirus is engineered so it can’t make copies of itself, but the gene for the coronavirus spike protein can be read by the cell and copied into a molecule called messenger RNA, or mRNA." The adenovirus cannot make copies of itself and so it eventually degrades into its components as well, so it cannot keep making mRNA to produce the spike protein. Did you think you had thought of a problem that never occurred to scientists and MDs???????? Brings to mind a cartoon of 3 scientists in the lab, one is looking at a computer and says to the others "Hey I know we have devoted our whole lives to the study of infectious disease, but this guy on Facebook makes a lot of sense." You can call it tinkering but what you seem to have missed is that it is not permanent, all of the introduced and resulting molecules will be degraded in a short period of time. Here are three descriptions of how Moderna, J&J and Pfizer, and AZ work. Written for the educated layman. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/oxford-astrazeneca-covid-19-vaccine.html https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/johnson-johnson-covid-19-vaccine.html https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/pfizer-biontech-covid-19-vaccine.html https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/health/moderna-covid-19-vaccine.html 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post cdemundo Posted October 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 9, 2021 Quote "But they go through a a process that takes 10 years to get FDA approval. " This is another example of the Big Lie propaganda technique, repeat your lie often and loud and soon people will believe it. This is repeatedly claimed (the 10 to 15 year figure) but no examples are ever given. Some vaccines have taken a long time to develop and get to the stage where they have shown promise in the pre-clinical stage. After a vaccine has appeared promising in pre-clinical trials, it is submitted for FDA approval. I don't think any vaccine has taken ten years for FDA approval after beginning the process. There is no standard time specified for vaccine approval by the FDA in any event. The long lead times for some vaccines have been in the process of pre-clinical trials, finding a vaccine formulation that demonstrates promising safety and efficacy. This was not the case for COVID-19 vaccines. The genetic code for the SARS-CoV-2 virus was known and published on the internet in January of 2020 when Chinese scientists submitted the gene sequencing data for posting on Virological.org, Because of advances in techniques in microbiology it was possible to produce a vaccine that was ready for submittal in a very rapid timeframe. In any event, doubts about the approval process are totally beside the point at this time as we have real world safety and efficacy data on hundreds of millions of vaccine doses that have been administered. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long term effects are a different story as you say. "Some molecules, chemicals... can take YEARS, or even decades to combine, potentialize with others, interact, and buildup effects within human body." This has been addressed repeatedly on this forum. "Some molecules, chemicals... can take YEARS, or even decades to combine, potentialize with others, interact, and buildup effects within human body." The problem with this statement is that none of the molecules or chemicals are in your body for years or decades. The contents of the vaccine are not present in you body for more than hours and days. The spike proteins are only present for weeks at the most. "In pharmacology,.. it's nothing." What is the extent of your training in pharmacology? Because you seem unaware of some pretty obvious problems with your argument. Take note that I did not resort to being insulting as you seem to need to do, doesn't strengthen your argument.

In pharmacology... it's nothing. .Your invocation of pharmacology is nonsensical. Long term effects of medications are virtually always due to frequently repeated dosages of the same usually for some persistent or permanent conditions. They are chemicals that the body is exposed to again and again. Vaccines are administered on a very infrequent basis, given in small doses, and rapidly vanish from the body. But if it's long term effects that rationally concern you, scientists are reporting that Covid may be causing type 1 diabetes and kidney disease as well as other chronic effects of long term covid. And it is well known that some viruses like polio and the virus that causes chickenpox, can result in death oran extremely painful condition years later. That has never been the case for the vaccines used to treat those illnesses or any other vaccines for that matter. So, if your concern about effects arising years later, clearly you would be focussing on subduing the virus and not on vaccines.

Over 500k is a good enough sample size. I expect to see no rise in the rates in the next 6 months. I have actually used the data set link I posted and showed the death rates decreased in the later half of this year compared to 2020. This is expected with optimizing treatment methods though. Discussion of cases doesn't really matter since I am talking about the rate of dying if infected with covid. I do not see that number increasing at all. I can guarantee case count will continually increase as time passes. That is obvious. So children accounted for 26.8% of cases in the article but what percent will die? Do you expect it to vastly differ form <.1%? Taking the two tables and Death/Casegives you these death rates. I think people should focus on the population with a higher death rate.
