That is not quite what I’ve read: I had a fanatical pro-jab troll tell me, the spike protein was chosen because it was the proteins in the rest of the virus’s shell which caused the ADE.
When I asked him for sources, he never answered.
The other issue, is that if you go without a jab, you may *happen* to avoid exposure to spike protein, but if you take one, you are guaranteeing a LOT, all at once; and multiple studies have shown it goes from the muscle into the lymph and bloodstream.
Aside from this, there are anti-viral prophylactic protocols which in clinical practice have an 85% success rate, without the attendant risks.
Taking the jab gives 95% relative risk reduction, but only about a 2% absolute risk reduction; and the immunity conferred by the jabs, has only been measured as long as 2 months.
The other thing is with the jabs, they are talking about every 6-month to annual booster jabs: and there is serious discussion about the successive waves of spike protein, particularly in the brain.

As I recall the issue with ADE is due to specific parts of the spike protein. There were some papers which discussed this very early on after “Operation Warpspeed” was launched. ADE was on the radar from the very beginning of these efforts, and if you are willing to put aside some of the crazier conspiracy theories floating around (and I for one am), it seems reasonable to assume that efforts were made to minimize these risks.

“The advantages of mRNA vaccines include ability to create a highly precise type of protein to elicit the correct antibodies, to elicit T cell responses that are Th1 predominant, and the rapidity of manufacturing.”
“Vaccines inducing strong neutralizing antibodies, predominant Th1 responses and balanced CD4/CD8 and polyfunctional T cell responses are less likely to induce immunopathology.”
