Only because we are vaccinated when young. Measles was often a deadly disease in the past.
> Severe complications in children and adults
Some people may suffer from severe complications, such as pneumonia (infection of the lungs) and encephalitis (swelling of the brain). They may need to be hospitalized and could die. About 1 in 5 unvaccinated people in the U.S. who get measles hospitalized.
Just in case you need additional moralizing. Also, very safe !!!
âWe know that God lets everybody into Heaven because He loves us all and He doesnât really care what kind of mischief we get ourselves into in this life, but we must be wary of the greatest earthly sin of all: not getting the COVID-19 vaccine. God has informed me that He will not let you into Heaven unless you have received BOTH DOSES of this very safe vaccine.â

I know. And your point is?
Do you understand what RNA is and how itâs delivered in vaccines? The underlying mechanism is essentially identical to that used by viruses to hijack a cellâs metabolic machinery. In principle it sounds a great idea, since the RNA codes only for a specific antigen (as opposed to an entire virus). But all new technologies sound great in theory. Then people find out that they do things that nobody ever even guessed at, or that they donât work quite as people thought they would, because the real world is complicated and messy. This is true even when (as in this case) the technology has been reasonably well characterized in the lab. Once things are out in the wild, observations that were previously dismissed as ânoiseâ tend to show up as data points.
Sure, it may all work as planned. Or it may not. Since the pharma companies - with muscle provided by world governments - intend to impose their product on the entire world population, theyâd better be damn sure about this one. My gut feeling (as per my bet with @Brianjones) is that they will drag their feet for many months yet, because the people who run the show (or at least those of them who still have a grain of common sense) will want to do more comprehensive tests.
It looks like they are going to start vaccinating with the RNA vaccines prior to Xmas.
Itâs somewhat of a large scale controlled experiment but there isnât any evidence to date from the three trials that would make me worried.
Personally if given the choice I will take the RNA vaccines due to the higher efficacy numbers. I donât want to take a vaccine and it not protect me.
Meaning syringes and needles are in shortage ?
More like extremely cold cold chains need to be maintained.
This was reported months ago.
Anyway, it puts a lot of confidence into the vaccine:
Hereâs some vaccine related nonsense.
â âThereâs a difference of opinion amongst Islamic scholars as to whether you take something like pork gelatin and make it undergo a rigorous chemical transformation," Waqar said. âIs that still considered to be religiously impure for you to take?ââ
Bane of human life - religions!! Seriously if those donât want the vaccine due to such ridiculous constraints why donât they invent their own? I donât see anyone stopping them from investing in R&D âŚ
Normally nature doesnât publish such rubbish.
And what if you were a vegan?
Well your problem. Invent it yourself if youâre offended. Simple.
Comment from that article.
It seems they didnât actually deteMine if they are currently carrying an active infection.
I do not comprehend how the authors could expect that patients with both negative cell culture and IgM would infect anyone. They didnât have an infection to transmit at all! They didnât have active viruses. Letâs not forget that the PCR test detects virusâ ARN fragments, but do not differentiate whether the virus is living or dead. Therefore, they werenât asymptomatic infected individuals, they just happened to have positive PCRs. 63% of those who had positive PCRs also had a positive IgG, which indicates that they had had the virus at some point in the past, probably during the last 3 months. Hence, it was to be expected they would have unviable viral remains.
Still itâs something Iâm interested to read more up on.
Well, theyâre way smarter, anyway.
I donât get it. Iâm devious?
Is there any word on Covid vaccine? I tried asking at VGH and they said they donât know anything.
Wouldnât Taiwan prioritize covid vaccines to prevent community spread?
I wish I could, but I donât believe in vaccines in many countries. Not enough testing has been done to take it to people
Yeah. Itâs better to get the virus rather than take the risk. That way we can spread it to vulnerable people, who may die from it, or at least suffer serious side-effects from it for years thereafter. Why risk our own lives if (supposedly) enough testing hasnât been done?
Has anyone taken the vaccine?
I have. Iâm in NY. Dunno if you meant local.
Just in general.
Did you get any side effects?
My professor had to reschedule a meeting with me tomorrow morning because he says he doesnât feel good after taking it. He didnât give any details besides that and I didnât want to be rude and ask.
