I'm not anti vaccination. I'm hesitant. I've laid out my concerns previously. My final conclusion is: I don't want to get infected (before I started researching I wasn't concerned. Now I am. So I'm motivated). I don't want to get injured by the vacci...

Heres the video explaining the genetic mechanisms behind mrna degradation. It's for the lay person but I still found it useful:

This conversation is not productive. I and MANY nurses like me have valid concerns. It's not productive to have a dismissive attitude. You have no empathy, fair mindedness, good faith, or reading comprehension (I think it's voluntary). I have nothing...

Hey! Thanks for reading through it. It's good to know I'm not just talking to myself. LOL. thanks for sharing the case study. A couple things stupid or to me: -Immunogenicity assessment by measuring spike protein (S1) antigen-binding immun...

I don't elevate doubt. I'm honest about it. You on the other hand read your script and buttress the hardline antivaxxers. You frustrate the conversation with your appeals to authority. Uncommon side effects can KILL, DISABLE, AND HARM people. NOT OFT...

I haven't changed my view. Once I get my vitD levels up, I plan to get vaccinated. One shot or two? Jenson or the others. Not sure yet. But you and people like you, dismissing everything but the CDC taking points is irritating. Medicine is not as sim...

"Countering misinformation"? What about the individuals I cited? You dismiss them out right! These people were harmed, there ARE risks, and YOU pretending those people simply don't matter is pathetic.

You realize I know what you're doing right?

I see a ton of two sided conversations going on here. I'm going to post some examples of people complaining of vaccine injury. GBS: https://medium.com/@BeautifulFlower/im-pro-vaccine-and-I-have-guillain-barré-syndrome-d82b3443f259 Stroke: ...

Yes but we are also in an information war. If you like your side and the partisanship, ignore the opposition and dismiss them. That's your choice. If you want to find common ground and combat the partisanship, and perhaps contribute to the solution, ...

You should work for the CDC press office.

I never said it was a virus. I said we still check for titers to ensure the presence of immunity. That's not the case with TB. We are checking for exposure and potentially looking to see if x rays are needed. Tb is not related to the issue in questio...

Sure. I get that. And that's correct. However, given titers are drawn for viruses where the question is "is there immune protection, ie antibodies", I think the poster you responded to has a valid question. "Why is this virus treated so differently f...

Because, for some strange reason, the medical experts have decided vaccines matter and natural immunity doesn't (at least that is the messaging). One could argue its "better to be on the safe side" and thus, more protection is better. There is good d...

Perhaps. But, the conversation isn't really about the science is it? It's about trusting the science, the sources of information. The science isn't really agreed with by everyone like things that are well understood and have long precedent. If everyo...

I thought PPD and quantiferon tested for exposure rather than immunity (exposure bad, non exposure good). So probably don't want an immune response in the case of tb. Not sure TB is a good counter example to tests for immunity. Am I misunderstand?

I think I have the pieces I've needed to help allay my concerns. As I've said, my main concern is vaccine injury long term from auto immune processes. I'm still concerned about that. My biggest concern is the denial game. Pro vax people seem to be de...

I don't think you understood the posters point. "It wasn't the vax that bothered me then. l It was having to make such a choice. " I read it as "back then it wasn't the vax itself that bothered me. So I took it, but wasn't happy about being requi...

Well I'm still wading through it but, what it showed me is, this is no "ordinary" virus. It seems to cause a much bigger inflammatory response through triggering an auto immune response itself. "We found that there are several similar processes...

Where in the world has this study been all my life!! Thanks for posting. Excellent article.

Given this is still a new drug, I've been looking for suggestions on possible links to auto immunity meditated by covid vaccines. Seen a number of letters to the editor with some proposed mechanisms. The thing that stood out to me on this one was the...

This was very informative. Thanks for sharing your story.

I'm in the middle. Not red or blue. I'm on the anti mrna team. As soon as Novavax comes out I'll take it. If nobody calls it a vaccine injury, it will be ignored in the data. We don't know how many have been injured. VAERS is dismissed as worth...

Your strawman has nothing to do with my statement. Freedom is still, and always will be worth everything. I guarantee that veteran would agree with the premise. Guess what. If there wasn't so much team sport stuff in this debate, maybe the vacci...

I updated my post. I don't reserve blame from the red team. I see you don't reserve blame from the blue team. In that we are agreed. But the media is biased. And the population gets their news from the media. My over riding point is, we can't keep p...
