Imperfect Vaccination Can Enhance the Transmission of Highly Virulent Pathogens
PLOS Biology ^ | July 27, 2015 | Andrew F. Read et al.

Posted on 08/10/2021 7:57:10 PM PDT by packagingguy

This is an article from 2015 about disease evolution being driven by vaccines that are not highly effective. This may explain the origin of the different variants of SARS-CoV-2 we have seen since the beginning of vaccination.

You might not want to read the whole thing, but the abstract gives you a good idea of why we have all these variants.

When I had Covid-19 the Chief of Staff of a large hospital in our area, who is also a pulmonologist, told me there was only one strain. That was before the vaccines had been introduced. The doctor most likely knew what he was talking about.


TOPICS: Reference; Science
KEYWORDS: covid19; sarscov2; vaccines
This is a long read--if you do not have scientific training it may be a bit thick reading. The takeaway is our current vaccines are new and not extremely effective at preventing development of Covid-19. Therefore, if roughly one out of ten vaccinated get the disease then the virus has an opportunity to mutate and evade the immune system.

This is a bit out of my area of expertise, so if you are an immunologist, virologist or physician feel free to explain the subject better.

Viri are gonna mutate. Regardless.

It’s what they do.

It’d be nice if someone could get this to Dr Stock, in Indiana, and have him weigh in like he did at that board meeting.

Any virologist or immunologist who was honest would admit this was suspected all along, selective pressure due to vaccine targeting a single antigen (protein), but good luck finding one.

“imperfect vax”

“snafu vax”

“glitch vax”

“almost vax”

We will never know how much damage the Wuhan virus has done in terms of a real death count. After inflating the number of deaths from the disease, now they’re hiding how many the vaccine has killed. Give up on ever getting the truth.

First of all.

The vaccine industry is pure evil and fraudulent

That being said.

Even if you DO believe in the “ immunization “ theory

Immunization against tiny viruses. Is a JOKE

The “ flu shot “. Notice how they don’t call it a VACCINE

IS A JOKE OR WORSE

This article does not address Covid specifically but has a more disturbing takeaway than the one you mentioned. It notes that viruses that quickly kill off their hosts are generally less successful, but a vaccine that improves host survival without much reducing host infectiousness would tend to remove that disadvantage. It would allow rare or newly evolved deadly strains to become more dominant. It gives the example of Marek’s disease virus in chickens.

“This is an article from 2015 about disease evolution being driven by vaccines that are not highly effective.”

Thanks.

“This may explain the origin of the different variants of SARS-CoV-2 we have seen since the beginning of vaccination.”

These “variants” arose well before the vaccines were being given and in countries that weren’t being vaccinated..

I have been telling people this for a long time.

if anyone wants an easy read, just look up mareks disease in chicken

soon you will understand why semi-effective Leaky vaccines are a wet-dream for pharmaceutical companies.

Family member in medical field said these so called vaccines are injecting substances that should not be injected into the human body.

In this study there were existing viral strains that varied in pathogenicity. One they used was 100% deadly.

It’s known that a very deadly virus is unable to be transmitted as well as less pathogenic strains, mainly because the deadly-strain infected chickens die before they can spread it to many others.

But if a vaccine reduces the pathogenicity, the virus can be spread despite being deadly because the vaccinated don’t die.

Covid virus is not pathogenic enough for this selection dynamic to come in to play. There’s not a near 100% deadly fast acting strain. In fact quite the opposite where the feast majority gave no symptoms.

If there were a highly deadly Covid virus strain it could be selected for, in theory, in vaccinated populations. But if so the response would be to vaccinate all chickens/everyone and/or increase strict quarantine.

Correct.

It’s like taking your antibiotics for 2 days instead of the prescribed 7.

And doing it again...100 million times.

Agreed.

And I don’t like agreeing with you.

Thanks!

For those reading be sure to read post #12 by ifinnegan — he makes good comments. This article is good for what it applies to, but you will not be able to influence virus scientists that is applies strongly to COVID.

The virus could mutate to a very deadly one if it is highly infectious. While the infected person is having symptoms, they could be infecting a multitude of people with the highly contagious virus before they die.
