30 Did-You-Know Questions for those 'on the fence' about the mRNA jabs

[Red Phoenix]

James Taylor on his 'Think for Yourself' substack, published an article with 30 Did-You-Know Questions about the mRNA shots.  It is specifically geared towards the large group that took the initial jabs but are now 'on the fence' whether they should continue taking the boosters (or other mRNA jabs that are in the pipeline).

He explains that the reason for taking that factual bits approach is that he does not want to force people into just believing him, but rather that they would start thinking about the issue themselves.  

Great article!

 

 

Remarkably, despite overwhelming evidence of harm, I still encounter the odd person expressing enthusiasm for getting their next mRNA injection. It’s like they’re waiting for a Toblerone bar in their Christmas stocking.

I used to think such an enthusiast was reachable.

I no longer believe so.

They will not be susceptible to any new information that makes them question their sacrament, even if that information is offered in the spirit of saving their lives.

A true believer would rather go to their grave than be wrong.

But I also encounter quite a few straddlers—those who are not particularly invested in a tribal-identity belief regarding their vax status but simply took an injection, or even a booster or two, because they wanted to fly somewhere on vacation, or see a concert, or because their employer said so, and they heard it was “Safe and Effective”, so what’s the harm?

These people, I believe, may be reachable with some strategic Did-You-Know questions.

Did-You-Know questions are respectful—you’re not insulting anyone’s intelligence by telling them they’re wrong, or telling them what to believe. Instead, you’re appealing to their intelligence by offering them something to consider on their own.

The point, as always, is not to convince anyone of anything. It’s to get them thinking for themselves.

He's just trolling now. He knows posts like this will get a rise out of his audience, which he seems to find amusing

[Ben Zioner]

Ok, I'll make a weak attempt to highjack this otherwise boring thread.

 

First since 2020 I got 4 shots of mRNA Covid vaccines without any proven side effects.

 

But what bugs me a bit is that in the past 4 years I haven't been made aware of any new developments making use of this, so promising technology.

 

I find that a bit disappointing, no? Maybe even a bit strange?

I subscribe to several different medical journals and research establishments, and I did see about a year or so ago that progress had been made on using the mRNA technology in a bid to fight cancer, but it is still in its early stages.

 

Let's hope they can utilise this new technology to good effect on other illnesses/conditions.

Did you ever tell the poster who would post repetitious cut and paste pro-vaccine posts almost daily in the original Covid forum to stop?

 

That’s what I thought.

 

It’s quite obvious that you’ve been trying to play the “good cop”.  How’s that working out for you?

= = =

 

  

 

I'll play...    just this once, to out the lack of credibility in the questions you posted...   

....and after that I can't be bothered arguing with idiots - there's enough of that in other threads... 

 

 

1. "Shot recipients demonstrate a 37% loss of life expectancy over non-recipients."

This claim is unsupported by credible data. Life expectancy studies are complex and require decades of longitudinal data. COVID-19 vaccines have only been available since late 2020, making it impossible to determine their long-term impact on life expectancy. Numerous studies, including from the CDC and WHO, show vaccines reduce severe illness and mortality.

 

2. "Each booster rollout is statistically correlated with a new wave of deaths."

Waves of deaths during the pandemic have been linked to the emergence of new variants, not vaccine rollouts. Boosters were introduced in response to waning immunity and variants like Delta and Omicron. Correlation does not imply causation; rigorous studies show boosters significantly reduce severe outcomes.

 

3. "Rats demonstrate autistic behavior after receiving COVID shots."

No reputable scientific studies link COVID-19 vaccines to autism, either in humans or animals. This claim appears to misuse or misinterpret behavioral studies in animals. The association between vaccines and autism has been debunked repeatedly by global health organizations.

 

4. "Florida’s Surgeon General warned against anyone taking further shots owing to their terrible safety profile and negative efficacy."

Florida's Surgeon General has taken controversial stances that contradict broader medical consensus. The CDC, WHO, and FDA confirm COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective in reducing severe disease and death. Negative efficacy claims are often based on flawed studies that don't account for confounders like timing or population differences.

 

5. "Young people are dropping dead or becoming disabled at a higher rate since the rollout."

No credible evidence supports this claim. Sudden deaths among young people often attract media attention, but epidemiological studies do not show an increased mortality rate in vaccinated populations. On the contrary, vaccines have been shown to reduce risks associated with severe COVID-19 in young people.

 

6. "99 million vaccine records found alarming safety signals for myocarditis, pericarditis, etc."

Myocarditis and pericarditis are rare side effects of mRNA vaccines, particularly in young men. However, the risk of these conditions from COVID-19 infection itself is significantly higher. Regulatory bodies like the CDC and EMA have acknowledged this risk, but the benefits of vaccination outweigh the risks.

 

7. "Six papers connect these shots with turbo cancer."

There is no widely accepted evidence linking COVID-19 vaccines to cancer acceleration ("turbo cancer"). Claims like this often rely on anecdotal reports or poorly controlled studies. Leading cancer research organizations confirm no link between vaccines and cancer development.

 

8. "Former CDC director admitted the agency hid known side effects."

Public health agencies like the CDC are transparent about vaccine side effects, as evident in public reports and advisory panel discussions. Misrepresentations of officials' statements are common in vaccine misinformation.

 

9. "Five state Attorneys General are suing Pfizer for fraud."

Lawsuits against pharmaceutical companies can be filed for various reasons, but filing does not equate to guilt. Pfizer's clinical trials and vaccine approvals underwent extensive scrutiny. Any findings of intentional wrongdoing would be subject to legal proceedings and evidence.

 

10. "An estimated 16.9 million vaccine-associated deaths by December 2022."

This number appears to be fabricated. Global vaccine safety monitoring systems like VAERS and WHO's VigiBase have not reported such figures. Adverse events are rigorously tracked, and claims of widespread deaths are unsupported by global mortality data.

 

11. "The injections do nothing to reduce severe illness."

Numerous studies from the CDC, WHO, and independent research confirm that COVID-19 vaccines significantly reduce the risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death. These findings are consistent across diverse populations and variants.

 

12. "Study of 1.7 million children showed heart damage only in C19-injected kids."

This claim likely misrepresents findings. Mild myocarditis in children post-vaccination is extremely rare and resolves quickly in most cases. Meanwhile, COVID-19 infection poses a higher risk of severe heart complications.

 

13. "Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database showed an alarming risk of myocarditis."

Japanese health authorities have acknowledged rare cases of myocarditis but emphasize that the benefits of vaccination outweigh the risks. This database monitors adverse events, but causation must be confirmed through controlled studies.

 

14. "C19 injection does not protect you from 'long COVID' symptoms."

Vaccines reduce the risk of developing long COVID by lowering the likelihood of severe infection. While breakthrough cases occur, multiple studies show vaccinated individuals are less likely to experience long-term symptoms.

 

15. "1236% surge in excess cardiac arrest deaths among C19 injection recipients."

Such a figure lacks context and credible sourcing. Sudden cardiac deaths can have many causes, and rigorous studies have not shown a significant increase linked to COVID-19 vaccines. Claims like this often misinterpret data from adverse event reporting systems.

[TheAppletons]

TLDR: Some guy posted something on a blog.

[cdemundo]

I have had the mRNA COVID vaccine and several boosters.

I haven't noticed any side-effects.

 

However, yesterday I dropped a box of wooden matches on the floor.

When I looked at them I immediately knew there were 96 matches.

So there's that.

I didn't know some of the points.

 

I must take issue with #14. ''Were you aware of the recent study that showed that the C19 injection does not protect you from “long covid” symptoms?'' 

 

Long covid is made up nonsense. There is no such thing. A big-pharma fantasy to cover up vax damage.

Fall Covid-19 vaccine provides additional protection

Jan. 3, 2025

 

"The first data on the effectiveness of this fall’s 2024-2025 Covid-19 vaccine is in, and it’s looking good!

 

A preprint was released on patients at a Veterans Affairs hospital. Scientists tallied the number of people who did (and did not) have Covid-19 from September- November 2024 and whether they got this fall’s Covid-19 vaccine (specifically the Pfizer 2024-2025 KP.2 formula). Among 44,598 infections, the Covid-19 vaccine reduces:

• Hospitalizations by 68%

• Emergency department and urgent care visits by 57%, and

• Outpatient visits by 56%

The vaccine worked best for those over 65 years old. This study is very preliminary (it only covered two months with little Covid-19 transmission), but the findings aren’t surprising—they are generally consistent with what scientists have found in previous years."

No way I would trust that fruitcake.

I rather get all the 'Covid-$cience' from a masked bulldog...

OK! I hear you Richard. What about debate instead?

Realistically, our opinions are too divergent. 

 

Your comments imply you don't believe in vaccines - nature alone would not have protected you from Polo to Smallpox, Measles. Rubella (German Measles). Mumps, Diphtheria, Pertussis (Whooping Cough), Tetanus, Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). Yellow Fever etc etc etc.. 

 

There is so much scientific evidence proving the efficacy and necessity of vaccines, if you are refusing to accept medically and scientifically proven facts then there is no more point in entering the debate with you than there is with a flat earther or a moon landing denier.

 

If it is only the Covid-19 vaccines which you question, primarily because of the speed with which they were produced, then your argument might have little more credibility - however, the arguments presented in the list of questions you provide can readily be countered - any debate is still too much like arguing with someone impossibly ignorant of proven facts.

Debate is no longer possible. In the beginning, people didn't know stuff, and even though some chose to stay uninformed or misinformed, it was perhaps possible to inform them as we all grew wiser. Those days are gone, I believe now that there is only one fitting description which richard_smith237 so wisely used about those that ignore the science: Idiots.
