During a radio interview, Byram Bridle claimed that the spike protein produced through COVID-19 vaccination, which generates immunity against the disease, enters the bloodstream and can damage the blood vessels and brain. Scientists who reviewed this claim for Health Feedback found it misleading because it misrepresented the results from scientific studies and was based on cherry-picked information.
Bridle’s claim was based on three assumptions:
*The spike protein from SARS-CoV-2 alone is the main cause of blood vessel damage in COVID-19 patients.
*The vaccine-derived spike protein damages the body in the same way as the spike protein produced during viral infection.
*The vaccine-derived spike protein enters the bloodstream and accumulates at harmful levels in tissues, such as the spleen, bone marrow, liver, adrenal glands, and ovaries.
The main argument to Bridle’s case is there are important differences between the spike protein produced during infection and the spike protein produced by vaccination. Furthermore, unlike infection, the spike protein from COVID-19 vaccination doesn’t get assembled into new viral particles. Instead, it contains a component that makes it attach to the cell surface. That is, even though the mRNA has the instructions to produce the entire spike protein, the dendritic cells break down much of the protein into small fragments. These fragments are presented on the outside of the host cell bound to the MHC-1 and MHC-2 complex molecules. It is these fragments that trigger the creation of the antibodies that will attack the virus’s Spike Protein and prevent its binding to the ACE-II receptors and entry into the cell.
While some of the vaccine might end up in the bloodstream, the body breaks it down.
I only apologize that I couldn’t spend more time refuting Mr. Bridle’s misinformation. Yes, the assumptions he has made have been thoroughly debunked and it would be wise not to rely on them.
You’re wrong on all counts, including the words “the” and “and”.
False equivalence, strawman.
Nobody cares about the mechanism of blood vessel damage in coof-patients; they’re angry that an untested gene therapy was used in place of harmless Ivermectin (Nobel Prize in Medicine 2015, over 3 billion doses in humans) or HCQ/Zinc.
People who get the jab aren’t dying of having the vasculature and thereby the alveoli in the lungs ravaged.
So your doubly false claim (”the vaccine”-derived, it’s an experimental gene therapy according to Moderna’s SEC filing) that the jab damages the body in the same way as the coof, wasn’t even claimed.
We don’t yet know what the harmful/safe level is in tissues, such as ovaries first, then others such as spleen, bone marrow, liver, adrenal glands...and you LEFT OUT crossing the blood-brain barrier.
Everyone and their DOG knows that the jab doesn’t create new virus. And the entire spike protein MUST be assembled in the first place, for your claim that the dendritic cells will break it down, to hold true (you can’t break something down unless it is first assembled).
The two other problems are the presence of whole spike protein in the blood (as indicated in the Harvard study).
Morons like you (”because SCIENCE!™”) think that 60 picograms / ml is a small amount, but it works out to on the order of 1 billion spike proteins in every milliliter of blood.
We don’t know if the body breaks it down or if the spike protein then binds to ACE2 receptors without entering cells (which is enough to start of inflammatory signaling cascades). And what’s worse, is if the body uses the antibody response to the spike protein, this lessens the innate immune response, and means the body is less likely to recognize the spike protein on new infections (hence the 67%-75% effectiveness, perfect for a “leaky vaccine”).
Did you even pass high school biology?
