  1. How do you prevent antivaxxers from entering bogus data? Do you have a way to verify that people who enter data have actually been vaccinated?

  3. Or another way, the vaccines are twice as effective at preventing infection than previous infection. That’s why the reinfection rate in Oklahoma is twice the breakthrough rate.

  4. Peter Kent, I see. So you are an ignorant antivaxxer spreading your nonsense. Have you entered bogus data in this app yet? How many fake accounts do you have?
    7
  5. Peter Kent, You have kept the virus alive during every lockdown with your id io ti c behavior. If people like you didn’t exist, virus could have been gone in a month without vaccines. But you all had to keep on spreading it making this drag out for over a year. People like you have made it so that vaccines are the only viable solution. THANKS BRO!!!!

  6. Damian Pos, Your inability to understand science is not an argument against it bro.

  7. Peter Kent, So not only are you an antimasker and antivaxxer, but also anti books too? Jeeze. No wonder you’re so i g n o r a n t...
    7
  8. If 95% of those over 50 are vaccinated, and 5% are not, and then 50% of those 50 and over who are hospitalized are vaccinated and the rest unvaccinated, then the vaccines are 95% effective at preventing hospitalization. If the vaccines were ineffective, then 95% of those hospitalized would be vaccinated. What are the numbers you’re looking at?
    6
  9. Peter Kent, Do you realize that human safety trials were conducted on ALL the vaccines BEFORE they began the phase 3 efficacy trials? They will not allow phase 3 trials on anything that hasn’t been proven safe. They also conducted animal trials BEFORE the human safety trials, and unlike the nonsense your antivaxxer buddies are telling you, NONE of the animals died.
    6
  10. Damian Pos, A trial with about 300 healthy individuals proved it was safe. Then they did a phase 3 trial with over 30,000 people. And now over 1.4 billion people have been vaccinated. These are the safest vaccines in history bro. Since when have they ever collected so much data on a handful of vaccines?

  11. Peter Kent, It’s called education bro. I’ve studied how the immune system and the vaccines work. It’s not that complicated if you have the capacity to understand.

  12.  @jeanwilson5029 , How do those 1,000 deaths compared to the background death rate among the unvaccinated? Is there an increase over what’s expected?
    4
  13. Peter Kent, Why? Because I asked a question?
    4
  14. Damian Pos, Your ig no ra nc e and st up it ity does not mean the vaccines are unsafe bro.
    4
  15. Dan Nicolae, Over 1.4 billion vaccinated bro. And how many have died compared to how many naturally die during the same time period? Like how many out of 1.4 billion people die naturally every day, and how many died each day after being vaccinated? How many on day 1, day 2, day 3, ... , and so on? And how does that number compare to how many usually die every day? And be sure to account for age. Let me know when you figure it out bro.

  16. Peter Kent, All the vaccines cause the recipients to develop immunity. That’s the definition of a vaccine bro.

  17.  @marklockwood1084 , Your confusion is obviously. Are you sure you haven’t already been infected? Coronavirus Vaccines vs. NON COVID-19 related deaths (New Data) https://youtu.be/zkVsXOZguLg
    3
  18. This data from these 18 states makes it quite evident that those who received Pfizer should be given a booster after 4 months while those who received Moderna do not need a booster after 4 months. Do we know yet whether people who received Moderna will ever need a booster? It seems like we don’t, but if I was old, or immunocompromised or something, I’d get a booster anyway, because why not? But I find it very strange that Moderna and the FDA are recommending a 3rd full dose booster for those who previously received 2 doses of Moderna but only 1/2 dose for those who previously received Pfizer. This makes absolutely no sense to me. I believe they have it backwards. If someone who previously received Moderna has more immunity than someone who previously received Pfizer, then they shouldn’t need a full dose, bur those who received Pfizer should. Or maybe both only need half a dose. Why would someone who already has more immunity need a bigger dose?

  19.  @ericb4127 , There’s a virus out there that can seriously damage the health of the unvaccinated, and we live in a capitalist system. Do you expect companies to make the vaccines and give them away for free? Are you a commie bastard or something? Obviously billions will be made by the companies selling these vaccines, but only the companies that make vaccines that are safe and effective will make billions. These vaccines are clearly safe and effective. Dr Carson - VAERS & Adverse Events https://youtu.be/UyLlQ49a4XM

  20. Cases are supposed to be, by definition, symptomatic, and therefore can be diagnosed by symptoms without testing. Testing only determines whether or not you’re infected by the virus.
    3
  21. That’s why it’s important to compare the breakthrough rates with the reinfection rates. In Oklahoma the reinfection rate is twice the breakthrough rate.
    3
  22. I believe that the vaccines would reduce long Covid rates by an amount similar to the reduction of cases, hospitalizations and deaths. Somewhere between 80-96%.

  26. Why aren’t they requiring vaccinations for these festivals? Or are they?

  27. John Hill, You seriously believe I don’t know about Seychelles? Really? Apparently YOU don’t know about Seychelles. They have a population of 98,000. After they vaccinated about 60% of them they fully opened and let tourists in, then about 3,000 got infected. They should have vaccinated over 90% and then waited 2 weeks after their second dose before reopening. You should brush up on your facts bro.

  30. Peter Kent, Id io ts like you created the “new normal” with your antimasker bu ll sh it.
    3
  31. Peter Kent, Whatever bro. It’s absolutely obvious that the vaccines are safe and effective. Look at Israel. over 70% vaccinated, and where are all the dead people? Where are all the severe adverse reactions? Why is their case count so low now? Why hasn’t your king Geert Vacderbutt’s predictions come to pass? Why is the vaccine stopping all the variants? Are you blind bro? What about the US and the UK? Why are their vaccination campaigns working so well? What about Vanderbutt’s predictions in those countries? How about Chile? Their case count is dropping too bro!!! Why? What’s going on bro? You guys have been wrong about everything so far. What does that tell you? I know what it tells me bro. It’s pretty clear. Clear as day bro.
    3
  32. Damian Pos, There have been very few mutations in the important part. You know, the spike protein bro... You see, if the spike protein mutated too much it won’t bind to the ACE2 receptor any more, and it won’t get absorbed into the cell. Therefor how much the spike protein can mutate is limited. That’s why after over a year, vaccines made for the original strain are still effective against all the variants. It’s therefore very difficult for the virus to escape our immunity. But you wouldn’t understand that because you’re intelligence is lacking.

  34. @Francesca Christy, And what are the numbers and your calculations?
    3
  35. We already did that after Delta, then Omicron showed up. We’ll do it again, and then another variant might show up. There’s no way to know until after. They never would have guessed that Omicron would appear until after it appeared.
    3
  36. It’s a non-issue.
    3
  37. What does “1 in 6 lower” mean? And what does “5 in 6 lower” mean? I would instead say that’s there’s a 1/6th chance, meaning that 1/6th as many vaccinated will get sick compared to the unvaccinated.
    2
  38. In Austria locking down only the unvaccinated is working. Maybe that’s what they should do everywhere.
    2
  39. This is important to understand. Because immunity from 2 doses of Moderna lasts so much longer than 2 doses of Pfizer immunity clearly can last longer. The difference is that Pfizer is 30ug while Moderna is 100ug. It’s very possible that 3 doses of Pfizer will last as long, or longer than 2 doses of Moderna. The larger dose of Moderna and possibly the longer delay between doses clearly increases the immune response which results in stronger and more frequent side effects and adverse reactions. "Data collected from 18 states between March and August suggest the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine reduces the risk of being hospitalized with COVID-19 by 91% in the first four months after receiving the second dose. Beyond 120 days, however, that vaccine efficacy drops to 77%. Meanwhile, Moderna’s vaccine was 93% effective at reducing the short-term risk of COVID-19 hospitalization and remained 92% effective after 120 days."

  42.  @barbaraneville5036 , Antibodies against the spike proteins is all that matters. They are the only antibodies that can be neutralizing. All the other antibodies are irrelevant. They can’t stop the virus from entering our cells and reproducing. They did the research to determine this well over a year ago before they started developing the vaccines. This argument in favor of natural immunity is nothing more than a crock of antivaxxer bullshit.
    2
  43.  @barbaraneville5036 , Ummm… The only place viruses replicate is within our cells. There’s absolutely no ultraviolet light within our cells unless it’s our skin cells. Yes, ultraviolet light destroys the virus, but this has absolutely nothing to do with the virus “reproducing”.
    2
  44. “36% of new cases are in the vaccinated” Cases don’t matter. What about hospitalizations?
    2
  45.  @davidbrunsdon3245 , Why doesn’t the FLCCC collect donations to conduct a proper double blind placebo controlled trial? Heck, they’re charging $30 per referral when you use their website to find a doctor to prescribe Ivermectin for you. I’m sure they’ve already made several million. Why don’t they use some of that money? I’ll tell you why. If they prove that it doesn’t work, their whole business model fails. And, they know the trial will prove that it doesn’t work, because they already know it doesn’t work. It’s a scam, and as long as there’s no proof either way, they can keep it going.
    2
  46. @Neil Howells, Huh? What exactly are you trying to say?
    2
  47. John Hill, Pretty much the same thing happened in Chile. They got all excited and reopened too early. But it’s probably a good thing. It’ll scare the id io ts into getting vaccinated, and the rest will gain immunity naturally. Once everyone in the US who wants the vaccine gets it, we should reopen here too, so the antivaxxers can gain immunity the hard way.
    2
  48. John Hill, The US is only 50% vaccinated, and that includes only adults, so it’s actually less. More like 35%. We’re opening up, so it’s gonna get bad. Most likely. I can’t wait until the antivaxxers/antimaskers start crying. I want their health insurance cancelled when they refuse the vaccine, but Biden isn’t gonna do it. He’s trying to win in 2024, and most of the antivaxxers/antimaskers are Trump supporters, so the Dems know exactly what they’re doing.
    2
  49. John Hill, Ummm.... the best vaccines are 95% effective. Of course many are catching it after being vaccinated. Duhhh... And Sinovac is less effective, so even more will catch it despite being vaccinated. But the symptoms will be less, and they’ll be less contagious.
    2
  50. Peter Kent, Are you an antivaxxer entering bogus data or something?
    2
  51. Peter Kent, “Wearing a filthy, germ infested mask all day every day” boosts your innate immune system and improves your lung strength bro. Isn’t that what the antivaxxers want? To boost their innate immune system?
    2
  52. Myth Tree, The adverse reactions are pretty much fever and a sore arm. Most people don’t report anything, because it’s not a big deal.
    2
  53. Myth Tree, Your claim that “they aren’t being recorded well”, you’re referring to VAERS. And I agree. Once anyone is given a vaccine, they should be entered into a database and after that every interaction with a hospital should be recorded in the database as well. Everything regardless of whether the patient or doctor believe it’s related to the vaccine or not. Then it should be up to scientists to determine whether the vaccine are causing those side effects or not. But this is only the United States. There are thousands of other countries that have their own systems for tracking these things. Many of their systems are not as flawed as VAERS. Many countries have a single payer system where everyone is in a single database. They can easily track everything. One example is Israel, who negotiated early access to enough Pfizer doses to vaccinate their entire population in exchange for sharing their medical data with Pfizer. They basically turned their entire country into the world’s largest clinical trial. Israel is just one country. There’s no way so many countries would be using these vaccines if there was a problem.
    2
  54. Myth Tree, If the vaccines in Chile are actively increasing illness, why is the case count dropping?
    2
  55. Myth Tree, They did a trial in Israel. They vaccinated almost everyone, and the pandemic there is going away. All they need to do now is vaccinate the last few people, and require proof of vaccination before entry into the country.
    2
  56. Myth Tree, None of these vaccines effect your genes. They are not “gene therapy” as the antivaxxers like to call them.
    2
  57. The virus didn’t come from a lab, and of course labs need to be careful.
    2
  58.  @piked261 , It’s more like vaccines and previous infection saved us from Omicron. Before Omicron 95% of the UK already had antibodies. Now it’s 97-98%. Almost everyone is immune already.
    2
  59.  @tamar5261 , It’s not much if a risk to the 97-98% who already have antibodies.
    2
  60. Are these the side effects in the vaccinated and previously infected or the side effects in the immunologically naive? Before Omicron 95% of the UK testes positive for antibodies, so the majority have some previous immunity.
    1
  61. There are likely a lot of antivaxxers following you, and if you tweet about a poll, they’re very active at sharing and participating in the poll to skew the results in their favor.
    1
  62. Is Omicron really reinfecting people already?
    1
  63. Regarding vaccine immunity fading in 4-6 months. Well, it depends on which vaccine… "Data collected from 18 states between March and August suggest the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine reduces the risk of being hospitalized with COVID-19 by 91% in the first four months after receiving the second dose. Beyond 120 days, however, that vaccine efficacy drops to 77%. Meanwhile, Moderna’s vaccine was 93% effective at reducing the short-term risk of COVID-19 hospitalization and remained 92% effective after 120 days."
    1
  64.  @lilbaz8732 , We don’t really care about T-cells or antibodies. All we really care about is whether we get sick or not. Measure antibodies or T-cells is just a method to attempt to predict the likelihood of getting sick. It’s better to try to predict these things and act in advance rather than waiting for people to get sick. But we have the data available and the Moderna results tell us that immunity can last, while the Pfizer data tells us that if you got 2 doses of Pfizer, you need a 3rd dose.

  65.  @alexdevcamp , The drop in efficacy against what? Hospitalizations? Deaths? Mild symptoms? Or asymptomatic infection? It’s kinda important to know, because we don’t really need to worry about mild symptoms or asymptomatic infection.

  74. Yeah, but their all protected against severe disease by vaccination and previous infection, right? Hospitalizations are 90-95% lower than they would be otherwise, aren’t they? At least they are in South Korea where they have now reached as many cases per capita as the United States, but have 1/10th the number of deaths.

  75. “Slight positive” ???
    1
  76. Well, while cases were increasing, people got scared and started being more careful. But then when cases started decreasing people probably thought the pandemic was over, and started slacking off. Also, didn’t they just end all Covid related mandates over there?

  77. John Hill, All the vaccines contain the same spike protein and cause the same antibodies. Obviously they’re all the same.

    1
  80. John Hill, Looks lie Seychelles is just under 65% fully vaccinated right now today. That means there are about 30,000 unvaccinated right now who could still get sick. Chile is at around 40%, so there are still many there who can get sick. Also, none of the vaccines are 100%, so until the virus is eliminated, we’re always going to have some vaccinated who get sick.

  81. k s, Intranasal vaccines sound great, but they’re not here yet. If you’re waiting for them, you’re nuts.

  82. k s, And, you can’t “still catch it and pass it on” bro. That’s nonsense. They Pfizer vaccine is 89.4% effect at stopping the spread. Moderna is likely similar. And sure, the vaccines aren’t perfect. Duh.... But they’re a whole lot better than not being vaccinated.
    1
  83. blue knight, Nope. It’s going to be eradicated, because the vaccines work, the antivaxxers will get infected and become immune, and the S1 site on the spike protein won’t mutate enough to circumvent the antibodies.

  85. Myth Tree, Serious effects are very rare. Less than 1 in 100,000.
    1
  86. Myth Tree, One problem they have is people who are vaccinated believing they are 100% protected the instant they receive their vaccine. They’re not doing a good job explaining that it’s only 95% effective and only 2 weeks after the second dose. So what seems to be happening is that the vaccines are making people less careful too early. Also, 70% vaccinated with a vaccine that’s 95% effective is not enough for herd immunity, so it makes sense that people suddenly being less careful should cause a spike in new cases. They don’t seem to even be trying to explain these things. There’s a lack of education. They experienced exactly the same issue in Chile.
    1
  87. Myth Tree, Iceland is pretty smart. They’ll likely make vaccination mandatory for entry into the country.
    1
  88. Myth Tree, There won’t be any effects after 2 - 3 years. After a few weeks the immune response is over, and the vaccine is gone. All long term effects, including immunity, shows up during that time.

  89. Alan Cameron, As long as the antivaxxers stay the hell away from me, and they don’t increase my taxes or healthcare costs, I really don’t care about them. But as soon as their stu pid ity impact my finances or put my friends or family’s health in danger, they need to be dealt with. Maybe if there’s an outbreak, they should have to pay the medical costs for everyone involved, and compensate everyone who’s relatives are impacted by their ig no ra nc e.
