It's Time to Mandate Vaccines

You’re kidding right? Ultra BLUE California is at 53% vaccinated and the cavemen in Florida are at 50%. What exactly do you think these ‘facts’ are supposed to prove?

Facts are inconvenient sometimes - it’s ok SCD

I feel that developing antibodies naturally and organically is far longer lasting and better for the overall mitigation of this pesky little bug, than an artificial man made vaccine. 

 

Healthy people shouldn't vaccinate because that can cause undue mutations, and it supports a pharmaceutical industry that is often times, no more than just common drug dealers on a legal and grand scale. 

 

I am not anti vax, I just feel like artificial substances should be used sparingly.

They're already getting you prepared for LAMBDA!!

 

 

 

Deadly Lambda variant could be vaccine-resistant, new study says

 

 

As the US struggles to suppress the rapidly advancing coronavirus Delta variant, new evidence has emerged that the latest Lambda mutation - ravaging parts of South America (where the United States continues its no borders policy with Mexico but you can't go to Canada) - won’t be slowed by vaccines.

 

In a July 28 report appearing on bioRxiv, where the study awaits peer review prior to getting published, researchers in Japan are sounding the alarm on the C.37 variant, dubbed Lambda. And it’s proven just as virulent as Delta thanks to a similar mutation making them even more contagious.

 

The Lambda variant is thought to have emerged somewhere in South America between November and December 2020, and has since turned up in countries throughout Europe, North America and a few more isolated cases in Asia, according to GISAID data.

Why won’t the CDC and NIH openly promote losing weight, taking vitamins and exercising?  Why won’t they criticize the obvious issue at our Southern Border?

Bull crap.  It’s simple math.  Three percent of thousand of people is a relevant number when the idea is keeping folks alive.

 

And your morality has been shown in another topic where you  seem to laugh at genocide.

Here's some brilliance from the CDC.  But you know, keep blindly following them...

 

https://www.wsj.com/articles/cdc-covid-19-coronavirus-vaccine-side-effects-hospitalization-kids-11626706868

 

"A tremendous number of government and private policies affecting kids are based on one number: 335. That is how many children under 18 have died with a Covid diagnosis code in their record, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Yet the CDC, which has 21,000 employees, hasn’t researched each death to find out whether Covid caused it or if it involved a pre-existing medical condition.

 

Without these data, the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices decided in May that the benefits of two-dose vaccination outweigh the risks for all kids 12 to 15. I’ve written hundreds of peer-reviewed medical studies, and I can think of no journal editor who would accept the claim that 335 deaths resulted from a virus without data to indicate if the virus was incidental or causal, and without an analysis of relevant risk factors such as obesity.

 

My research team at Johns Hopkins worked with the nonprofit FAIR Health to analyze approximately 48,000 children under 18 diagnosed with Covid in health-insurance data from April to August 2020. Our report found a mortality rate of zero among children without a pre-existing medical condition such as leukemia. If that trend holds, it has significant implications for healthy kids and whether they need two vaccine doses. The National Education Association has been debating whether to urge schools to require vaccination before returning to school in person. How can they or anyone debate the issue without the right data?"

This makes a good point.  Children and adolescents are at very low risk of death.  But two things to mention.  One, we’ll have to watch the data as more children seem to be susceptible to the delta variant.  Second, while understandably everyone focuses on mortality rates we’ll have to see what the long term morbidity effects are in the younger population.

Will be interesting to see the long term effects of the various vaccines as well as long COVID (those whose symptoms continue).

I am not worried about any long term effects of the vaccines.  First, historically side effects from vaccination are extraordinarily rare and, if they occur, are seen within weeks.  We saw this with the very rare blood clot issues and the myocarditis with the Covid vaccines, which are picked up quickly due to the reporting mechanisms used globally.

 

Granted then mRNA viruses are new technology, but they are basically lipid packages of mRNA.  The mRNA is transcribed then degraded, and does not alter the genome in any way.  SoI don’t see where the theoretical fear of long term adverse effects are supported based on the science.

1/3 of drugs have unexpected side effects, which is not extraordinary rare. Old school vaccines are not as problematic as they used to be because we have spent 80 years making them better. RNA effects on the body is still an unknown, which you seem to admit. While I doubt there will be any life threatening problem in a decade we don't know because we don't have a long term study

Drugs work somewhat differently than vaccines.  Many drugs on the market work on membrane receptors which then normally send downstream signals into the cell.  So the effect on those downstream events can get tricky.  Vaccines basically prevent viruses from entering cells and don’t generally have downstream intracellular effects.  The side effects of vaccines are more due to accelerated response of the immune system and thus get picked up pretty quickly.  
 

mRNA viruses are indeed different but as I indicated they are mRNA packaged in lipids to maintain solubility.  The mRNA is transcribed and then rapidly degraded.  And there is no genomic effect.  Unless you are buying into the nonsense about magnetism and secret chips, the biology of these vaccines are very simple.

All that's well and good but if the vaccine is effective what then are vaccinated people afraid of regarding contacting un-vaccinated people?  Other than people stating they "don't feel safe" what if any facts justify their fears?

 

More importantly and seemingly lost on almost everyone is an insight from the the CDC director that a vaccinated person is capable of carrying the same high viral load as an un-vaccinated person.  The unstated conclusion is troubling, vaccines don't kill or stop the virus from replicating.  So every vaccinated person walking around is a potential mutation and variant incubator and the vaccination program as currently defined will not eradicate or control the virus.  We still need a strong and effective anti-viral to gain any real control over the outbreak, vaccinated or not.
