It’s a kill shot for some, a “battlefield prep” shot for most.
Good to hear from you.
The shots have done well for me, some of the criticism is correct.
But the question of motive, why the rush - the psychologists have a word, "overdetermined", which fits this situation very well.
Yes, COVID is a problem, yes, you can induce antibodies to the spike protein with these vaccines, yes, those antibodies provide (short-term) protection, yes, it appears that the T cell responses are longer lasting and offer substantial protection against severe pulmonary disease, BUT - no long term data, censorship of data on adverse effects, lack of protection against transmission, uncertainty about antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE).
So - the question of the PRESSURE and the INTENSITY of the push for universal or near universal vaccination is a good one, and suspecting that "there's something they aren't telling us" needs more investigation.
