I could make a similar accusation about all those posting here that oppose vaccinations. Are they being paid by those websites/’doctors’ who are selling expensive over the phone consultations or ‘natural therapeutics’ that don’t work?

BTW, the claim that vaccines ‘destroy your immune system’ aren’t anything new. That canard has been hoisted throughout the history of vaccines. Each time it has been discredited but those opposing vaccines and supporting ‘natural’ remedies keep trotting it out. One would think that it is as false now as it was then.

“CLAIM: A study from the Francis Crick Institute in London found that Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine destroys a type of white blood cell called the T cell and weakens the immune system.”

“AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. The vaccine doesn’t destroy T cells or weaken the immune system. On the contrary, it generates a strong T cell response and boosts immunity, according to experts. A researcher at the Francis Crick Institute told The Associated Press the claim distorts his team’s work, which did not examine T cells.”
