The article does promote taking the vaccine as the safer route - which is agreeable if you have co-morbidities. But long term effects of either will only be shown over time, we still need more of that
I’ll take the time to look at these after work, but I wanted to briefly chime in.
Co-morbidities or not, we have been aware since the beginning (well before the vaccines were available) that some people continued to have lingering symptoms and suffered other types of damage due to having contracted the virus. For example - an athletic coworker in her early 40s contracted it August 2020, and to this day continues to have heart problems. I work in hospice, and while the numbers are lower than they were over the last few years, we still regularly get patients entering hospice due to damage from COVID.
I have yet to come across a patient who needed hospice services due to a vaccine.
If I’m going to take a “risk” on anything, it’ll be the vaccine.
Just out of curiosity, are the people who’re entering your hospice from covid vaccinated against it too? It’s not easy to discern if it’s the virus or the vax if they’ve had both - and the reporting on it seems shoddy. It’s possible that both can cause issues as well.
Anecdotally, regarding your coworker, I’ve found it around me too that it’s some of the most athletic people had the worst time with COVID (not counting elderly or people with co-morbidities). For the people I know personally, they aren’t sure if it was from COVID or the vaccine though, as they’d been vaxxed about a month prior to contracting COVID so it’s hard to tell. That also speaks a bit to as to how well the vaccine worked lol.
Let me know what you think of that study when you get some time
From what I understand, you’re correct that the spike protein is what caused the issues, usually to people’s hearts if they had an adverse event. The mRNA part is what instructs your cells to produce those spike proteins, which your immune system’s antibody’s should bond to in a similar way that it would with the corona virus
They’re not new? Could you show me what other human vaccines we’ve made and deployed that use this tech?
Changing the disease it’s targeting changes the structures of the proteins that are created from the mRNA vaccine, and will change how your body responds to it (with each body reacting a bit differently) - so each time will warrant testing (ideally) before release to the public, especially before mandates are imposed
I’d like to say thank you for being civil and having an actual discussion lol.
Here’s a study that came out in Feb 2023 looking at vaccinated protection vs natural immunity -

Moron’s take right there
Can you elaborate?
I’m just not sure how we can know long term effects without creating a time machine to go forward
Vaccines have existed for how long?
MRNA vaccines are also not new.
Changing which disease is treated for doesn’t magically change the vaccine into something that’ll hurt us down the line.
This is really basic vaccine knowledge, you should have learned this in school
