Fun Quiz > Covid-19 mRNA Vax harm denial - At which stage are you?
The mRNA issue is separate from other vaccinations, though the Covid fiasco lead lots of people to question – and ultimately lose faith in – vaccination as a whole (I am one of them). Dr. Palevsky warned in 2021 that this episode would probably deal a fatal blow to the vaccination industry. Indeed... and we have the recent measles outbreak in the USA (discussed in other threads).... -

Fun Quiz > Covid-19 mRNA Vax harm denial - At which stage are you?
That really depends on how well-informed people were. I was certainly aware from the outset that no vaccine offers 100% protection, and Covid vaccines were no exception - just like the seasonal influenza vaccine, which varies in efficacy year to year and primarily reduces the severity of illness rather than guaranteeing full immunity. If people believed the Covid vaccine would completely prevent infection, that may reflect a misunderstanding - either through assumptions, poor communication, or in some cases, a failure by health professionals or public messaging to explain things clearly. In the midst of a global crisis, with a constant stream of evolving information, it's not surprising that many people made assumptions. The sheer volume of noise - media headlines, political soundbites, social media posts - often overwhelmed the more nuanced messages about what the vaccine could and couldn’t do. It was never a magic shield, but rather a tool to reduce serious illness, hospitalisation, and death, and to help slow transmission - especially in the early stages. I'm sorry to hear that... Meanwhile my folks have taken yearly Covid-19 vaccines and influenza vaccines without issue, and more importantly, without coming down with serious symptoms of Covid or Influenza. Yes, my son received two doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine (a viral vector platform). However, we’ve not had further Covid vaccinations since, as I believe the severity and risk profile of the virus has shifted significantly since the early waves. As we approach winter, more recently we have instead prioritised the seasonal influenza vaccine. In our case, this presents a more immediate and practical concern. In past years, we have picked up the flu, which has disrupted several precious days of our break. Given the likelihood of exposure to seasonal flu the flu jab feels like the more appropriate safeguard for our circumstances. Possibly... but that circles back to the necessity of a unified stance in the face of what was perceived as an existential threat. In times of crisis, especially when the science is still emerging, it’s not uncommon for governments and institutions to centralise decision-making and messaging in the name of public safety. It's often said that “a committee of one is the only way to make a decision during war” - and while that kind of top-down approach definitely seems authoritarian, it's perhaps considered necessary to prevent chaos or paralysis. Whether it was the right move in hindsight is still up for debate, but at the time, even with hindsight I think its valid argument to suggest that unity and clarity were essential tools in managing uncertainty. -
