COVID vaccine under new scrutiny after studies reveal possible health risks

Two large studies have put a spotlight on potential health risks of the COVID vaccine — but some experts urge caution when interpreting the findings.

Recent research has linked the vaccine to a higher risk of kidney injury, as well as certain respiratory infections.

A Korean study published in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases looked at how infectious diseases changed during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the impact of vaccines.

Too bad covid shot studies were banned during the epidemic......who know, it might have actually saved a few lives.

Added Siegel, "It is also quite possible that the studies were biased if those who took the vaccine were already more prone to other infections or to kidney problems."

In other words, those who are older and less healthy were more likely to get the Covid vaccine. Therefore, they would have been more likely to have issues whether they had gotten the vaccine or not.

I think that, with the diminishing virulence of succeeding variations of the Covid virus, each person can legitimately choose whether or not to get the shot or not. Early in the epidemic, Covid was more deadly and many people died (including friends of mine). Today it is different. If you choose to get the shot, I would recommend the Novavax vaccine, which is a more traditional vaccine, rather than the MRNA shots. It is slightly more difficult to find, but it is around. Those who are older might want to consider it, more so than the younger folks. Just my two cents.

I wonder if we’ll ever know if more were killed by the “vaccine” than Covid…

Siegel is pro-covid vaccine, and has been all along. For that reason, I have less respect for him.

The article fails to distinguish between mRNA and non-mRNA Covid vaccines. The latter is a vaccine based on traditional non-mRNA design. I.e., COVID-19 vaccines recommended for use in the United States for the 2025–2026 vaccination season include both mRNA and protein subunit (non-mRNA) types. The mRNA vaccines available are from Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech, while Novavax offers a protein subunit vaccine.

I'm guessing that the vaccine that was tested and found a problem was the mRNA version(s).

“I wonder if we’ll ever know if more were killed by the “vaccine” than Covid”

That exact thought had been in the back of my mind since the whole mess started.

The data is so Skewed I’m sure we never will.

I remember hearing of people dying of some cause other than covid but the deaths were recorded as dying of covid because they had covid when they died.

Anyone in a hospital who died that ALSO had covid were recorded as dying with because the government PAID them if they did.

In addition, there was also an incentive to put them on a respirator. IF they died while on a respirator with covid they got even more money.

This was related to me by a nurse who works at a major Boston hospital.

So, IF you got attacked by a shark who bit your leg off and you bled out, BUT also tested positive for Covid. Then you died with covid.

I had Covid twice, had it worse the second time (lost 30 pounds in a week). It was treated with HCQ and Ivermectin. Superb doctor, so good that Medicare dropped him.

We were a no jab family, with the exception of my daughter in law. She was jabbed during her second pregnancy, and my granddaughter was born 13 weeks premature. She’s 4 now, but has had to deal with numerous complications.

We decided early on we weren’t going to get a shot that had very little if any testing......and then we started seeing people that did end up with covid anyway and or suffer adverse effects.

Not that I needed any more convincing, but when taterhead Biden said if you get a covid shot you won’t get covid I knew we would never allow that poison in our bodies.

Duh. That is why many of us refused the clot shot.

I would recommend the Novavax vaccine, which is a more traditional vaccine, rather than the MRNA shots.

Novavax is better in that it doesn't hijack your body to make the spikes, it is still full of the spike proteins (not full, inactive, CoViD cells), trade secret toxic substances, as well as not vury pure, leaving large chunks of the insect cells used to grow the spike proteins.

Yea, it might be/likely is safer than the mRNA shots, it also hasn't been studied nearly enough to actually know how good/bad it is for you.

In good conscience, I would never recommend any vaccine.

These korporations and their government cohorts have repeatedly shown they can't be trusted, and are granted legal immunity, further dispelling any trust one might be conditioned to grant them.

“are granted legal immunity”

Exactly.

If they won’t put their money where their mouth is...fuggedaboutit.
