Let’s see if the anti-vaxxers accept this one.

Likely we will find out what we knew all along: they are simply a bunch of wimps scared of needles.

Why are you insistent that we take a shot? Why is Trudeau willing to tank his economy rather than let some guys who spend 95% of their time alone get a shot?

Why is someone who is not interested in a shot for himself, for whatever reason, including natural immunity, labeled an “anti-vaxxer”?

You should see a proctologist about that condition. Hopefully, he can help your eyesight.

The regulator also said that “preliminary and exploratory data shows” that the vaccine “does produce neutralizing antibodies against the Omicron variant,” but that additional data is needed to confirm that.

Like any vaccine against a virus, mutations can easily defeat it. That's why you need an annual flu vaccine. The formula changes each year based on 'best guess' of what flu strains will be prevalent.

Three other leading vaccine candidates developed by AstraZeneca with Oxford University, Johnson & Johnson, and Novavax, all have used aborted fetal cell lines both in production and in testing. All three candidates are still in Phase III trials.

How can anyone here accept it?? Its been in hiding at the FDA foe more than a month now. Pfizer and Moderna still have millions more doses to sell before facsistfauci gives the okay on this one.

While I understand anyone's reluctance to inject with Frankenstein messenger RNA to then have it's way with one's cellular ribosomes to create antigens, I prefer a protein-based vaccine such as the one just approved in Canada. It's more like flu shots.

Personal choice.

I had a couple of Modernas ten months ago, and I skipped the booster.

Now, when/if this vaccine is approved in the USA, I believe that I'll have me a booster.

Potential implications of lipid nanoparticles in the pathogenesis of myocarditis associated with the use of mRNA vaccines against SARS-CoV-2

Novavax is mentioned.

From the above...

“The recent observation of a similar adverse event in a recipient of the non-mRNA, peptide-based NVX-CoV2373 in the frame of a phase III clinical trial with 7020 participants in the active treatment arm raises the question whether the lipid nanoparticle sheath, which is a common structural component of these platforms could be implicated in the pathogenesis of vaccine-induced myocarditis.”

As a child I took a shot every week for ten years I have had more needle pokes than anyone who isn’t an addict.

You can call me a wimp till your thingy falls off and I will never take one of these fake vaccines for covid.

I would rather be called a wimp by the likes of you rather than be stupid by the likes of you.

You do realize that the FDA and Big Pharma are in collusion, right? Approvals are bought rather than earned by delivering safe products.

Guinea pigs north of the border. Hopefully it will work better than mRNA.

SEEKING INFORMATION: Is it possible for an American to travel to Canada to get the Novavax vaccine? Has anyone on this board done it? Thanks...

I took shot a every week for ten years as a child due to asthma.

I had a shot directly into my temple many years ago for an eye injury.

I resent your attitude because I am not as stupid as one who would let someone shoot an unknown and untried on humans substance into my arm that does not work except to cause harm of other types.

Brain dead wimps can bleat and gloat all they like. Many have dropped over dead as they prove how brave they are. Did you act like an ass over those who didn’t want flu shots in the past?

I don’t want any covid vax “jab” or pill made by the people who would use the population as guinea pigs when they knew previous studies of this type on animals proved the animals all died.
