America is about to hit a 'vaccine wall' as demand drops — with or without Johnson & Johnson
Yahoo ^ | April 15, 2021 | Andrew Romano

This is a useful article because it includes 5 links to areas that are seeing reduced demand for vaxes.

...longer-term U.S. supply — which could include up to 200 million Johnson & Johnson doses once this week’s issues are ironed out — will soon start to exceed demand.

In many places, it already has. Last week, the New York Times reported that a “pileup of unclaimed appointments in Mississippi” — 73,000 open slots at the time of publication — “reflects … mounting supplies” but also “exposes something more worrisome: the large number of people who are reluctant to get vaccinated.”

“reflects … mounting supplies” but also “exposes something more worrisome: the large number of people who are reluctant to get vaccinated.”

It actually reflects people who have a brain and don’t want to participate in the being a lab rat for the world’s governing body. Let us know when the vaccine is approved by the FDA.

Never mentioned by the media: the hundred million or so who have acquired immunity from infections.

I’m all for the vulnerable being vaccinated, but when it comes to “herd immunity” concerns those who have acquired “wild” immunity from the disease are a large group that affect the issue greatly.
They’re also likely to be the same group that turns down the vaccine.

It’s not a vaccine. It is an experiment and I refuse to participate in it. I am hoping in 3 to 6 months, fingers crossed that I won’t be watching the folks I know who got it get sick and die. By by mom.

This is actually a good thing. Those who WANT to get vaccinated will be able to get an appointment without having to sit by their computer looking for open appointments.

I’m surprised that 80% (and increasing) of our 65 and over population have now gotten at least their initial shot. We need to reopen our schools now and eliminate the requirements to wear masks. Healthy children and young people are minimally affected by Covid-19. They certainly are more adversely affected by the lockdowns and mask requirements than they would be by an asymptomatIc or mild Covid-19 case.

Herd immunity baby!

RIP Hank Aaron, who died two weeks after he got the shot.

I'm not an anti-vaxxer, far from it. This is a lab experiment disguised as health care.

What is the proposed solution? Chase people down and jab them by force?

I had COVID. I’m not taking the vaccine. Not under any circumstances. It’s against the Geneva Convention.

ALTERNATIVE WAYS TO KEEP YOUR RESISTANCE UP & FIGHT COVID -19.

ANYONE IN REASONABLE GOOD HEALTH ADHERING TO THIS SUGGESTED REGIME SHOULD SHAKE THIS VIRUS QUICKLY AND ALONG WITH IT WILL ACQUIRE NATURAL IMMUNITY.

There are other ways and means to enhance your resistance against viruses including that by now infamous covid-19 virus aside from taking any of these “Quick” developed vaccines utilizing a messenger RNA. So far science has not evolved far enough yet to be certain how the human body will react many month or years down the road once we start tinkering around with our RNA and how our bodies will react should we encounter mutated strains of similar viruses.

Below is a list of vitamins as well as nutrients suggested by a physician to enhance your resistance, they are harmless and even beneficial to your body unless someone goes crazy and over doing it. Even so they will NOT protect you from getting any specific viruses; neither will any of those new “QUICK” developed vaccines. But not only will they make you more resistant but also help you to overcome the effects of such a virus more quickly, should you have bad luck getting it. And once you are over it, your natural immune system will take over and protect you considerably better than any vaccination, this according to a statement by Merck. The CATCH is to have these vitamins/nutrients in your system BEFORE you think you have caught this virus, as time is of essence so your system starts fighting the virus BEFORE it gets a chance to do any damage.

A suggestion to the wise, take some time and read up on each of these suggested components which is freely available on the internet.

Vitamin D — Vitamin D supplements are readily available and one of the least expensive supplements on the market. All things considered, vitamin D optimization is likely the easiest and most beneficial strategy that anyone can do to minimize their risk of COVID-19 and other infections, and can strengthen your immune system in a matter of a few weeks.

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) — NAC is a precursor to reduced glutathione, which appears to play a crucial role in COVID-19. According to one literature analysis,7 glutathione deficiency may actually be associated with COVID-19 severity, leading the author to conclude that NAC may be useful both for its prevention and treatment. For best results should always be taken with two to three times the amount of vitamin C.

Zinc — Zinc plays a very important role in your immune system’s ability to ward off viral infections.

Like vitamin D, zinc helps regulate your immune function8 — and a combination of zinc with a zinc ionophore, like hydroxychloroquine or quercetin, was in 2010 shown to inhibit SARS coronavirus in vitro. In cell culture, it also blocked viral replication within minutes.9 Importantly, zinc deficiency has been shown to impair immune function.

Melatonin — Boosts immune function in a variety of ways and helps quell inflammation. Melatonin may also prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection by recharging glutathione11 and enhancing vitamin D synthesis, among other things.

Vitamin C — A number of studies have shown vitamin C can be very helpful in the treatment of viral illnesses, sepsis and ARDS,12 all of which are applicable to COVID-19. Its basic properties include anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, antithrombotic and antiviral activities. At high doses, it actually acts as an antiviral drug, actively inactivating viruses. Vitamin C also works synergistically with quercetin.

Quercetin — A powerful immune booster and broad-spectrum antiviral, quercetin was initially found to provide broad-spectrum protection against SARS coronavirus in the aftermath of the 2003 SARS epidemic,14,15,16 and evidence suggests it may be useful for the prevention and treatment of SARS-CoV-2 as well. Not only that but quercetin also acts as an ionophore for zinc similar to hydroxychloroquine, in a matter of speaking it will unlock the cells to let the zinc in where it can attack the virus . It is also a good pain killer and better for the human body than Aspirin, what helps to subdue arthritis pain. I is good for sinus infection, in other words if you happen to have a runny nose.

B vitamins — B vitamins can also influence several COVID-19-specific disease processes, including17 viral replication and invasion, cytokine storm induction, adaptive immunity and hypercoagulability.

SUGGESTED DOSAGE

All components as suggested are individually obtained and freely available and if used with some common sense are not harmful and if anything beneficial to your health. However it is a good idea and highly recommended to read up on each component, as there is plenty of information available on the internet. You may be surprised to find out and learn about the many benefits they provide to your health.
Here is a suggested approximate dosage for each.

Vitamin D 1500 IU

Malatonine 3mg to 6mg suggested about one hour before you go to sleep.

QUERCETIN 500 mg to 1000 mg

NAC 500 mg to 1000 mg

Zinc 50 mg

Vitamin C 1500 mg or MORE !! but always should be to two three times as much as NAC

NAC 500 mg to 1000 mg

Vitamin B complex

So far whoever has been taking this regime of supplements and may have had a brush with this virus, shook it off fairly easily and quickly and the most important thing was that in the process such a person also acquired natural immunity. Not only that but at the same time this regime also helps to ease the effects of the regular flu.

Good post.
I have been on that same vitamin regimen since April 2020 along with approx 25 friends/family members. All of us socially active...restaurants, church, weddings, travel, etc. In other words, we’ve not changed our lives the past year. Not a one of us has tested positive and not a one has even had a cold. I’ve added hydroxychloroquine 200mg each Sunday starting about 6 mos ago.

Correct, but a much simpler description of vaccine refusal “ AMEN”.

"the large number of people who are reluctant to get vaccinated.”

It may turn out helpful to have a control group for comparison, especially if it's later determined that all who survive the vaccine have developed imortality.

In Arizona, demand among the 65+ crowd has leveled off at 78% vaccinated. It is leveling off for those 55-65 at 56%. Looks like it is leveling off for those under 55 at around 35-40%.

Makes sense to me. It took me close to a month to get an appointment for my first shot a week ago. There were TWO time slots left open on ONE day. But now someone looking for their first shot can find appointments available any day, any time, no problem.

I’m not stupid for getting the vaccine. And others are not stupid for refusing. Freedom! Let folks do as they see fit. INDIVIDUALS making their own decisions. What a concept!

Big push to get an unproven, experimental agent for something that is 99% survivable

And there ya go fearbros.

We locked down for more than a year, destroyed civilization (yes, we have - it’s just beginning) and for what? Nobody wants the vaccine and governments are reopening this summer anyway because they can’t afford NOT to and will NOT shut down again.

So what was it all for?!

If it ends up being safe, there are still a lot of people who have taken it and that is good. If in a year or two we find out it is unsafe, then the damage is done. Let’s hope it continues to do well.

No problem...The dems will offer everybody some “walking around money” ($1,000.00 per person) to get vaccinated. They have plenty of money. If it runs out, just print some more. Everything will be fine.

i only disagree with melatonin dosage, it’s too high.
Start with 300mcg which is 1/10th or less of the dose suggested there

Despite what they say, the Biden Administration doesn’t want you to get vaccinated. The prime objective is to keep the COVID scam going as long as possible because it keeps the political opposition off balance and unfocused. If they scare the people into not getting vaccinated; if they for JNJ off the market; then they can keep the emergency going.
