yeah, from what I have read the NovaVax is the better “in between” choice between the mRna and the J&J.

I would take it....

unfortunately, NovaVax is more keen to have a Europe deal than an American deal.

The USA may not get it until 2022 or late 2021.

from what I understand, unlike many other viruses, long-term immunity to the coronaviruses depends upon T cells. Only exposure and recovery from the disease will confer this. The vaccines stimulate B cell antibodies which are relatively short-lived.

Yes, I am considering it. I am not vaccine adverse, but based on my health profile, job and living situation I decided to take my time before getting vaccinated for COVID to allow those more vulnerable to have an opportunity. After assessing mRNA technology (and seeing some adverse effects in my father), I decided those vaccines were not a fit for my body. I am in a demographic group that has been classified as at risk for blood clots from the Johnson and Johnson over the course of the vaccine rollout.

Reading where the Novavax technology has been used, I probably have had a shot using that technology.

In the meantime, I take my vitamin D and zinc supplements , eat ALOT of vitamin C and Quercitin rich foods, exercise daily (if possible outside to get better Vitamin D), stay hydrated and go to bed on time.

Have you seen the new “Ivermectin” vaccine!!!!

When you get covid, you take it and it helps you get over it!

No nasty side effects EITHER!

>>Some of those people who have been wary of getting the mRNA vaccines may find Novavax more appealing.<<

The article read, emergency authorization is on hold until the 4th quarter.

The last influenza shot I received had four strains...two A strains (not sure why), a B strain and the Swine strain.

I had no ill side effects from it although originally I refused the Swine vaccine because it too was rushed initially with little testing.

As long as it is a more traditional vaccine without the hundreds of thousands of serious side effects / deaths reported.

A coworker of mine got the Pfizer jab x 2 and developed Bells Palsy and a pretty severe left side facial twitch.

Another coworkers b-n-law, 47 and by accounts healthy received the Maderna I believe...stroked out and died.

I think they’ve filed for emergency authorization in the US. I guess they’re expecting it in the UK in September.

Recent sign up date.
Cliche tagname.
Disarming tagline that would point to you being a Christian.

...and the first Christian I have heard of pushing a vaccine.

Pardon my skepticism.

I got over Covid early last year. All research I have done points to natural recovery is very effective. I won’t be taking any of the vaccines. Maybe in ten years or so but seeing how the new delta variant has a 800000% certain fatality rate will anyone be left alive?

Those are great goals, pandemic or not.

Well that does sound like good news, thanks. Even though it was from The Atlantic, which I don’t trust anymore to get stuff right than WND.

I saw Novavax referenced on the YouTube channel I watch, and this was the most explanatory article that came up.

Right now now, I’m not considering any of them. I’m not trusting the people involved - at all.

And Big Pharma, with liability waived and all those dollar$ flowing in - I trust least of all.

Inject me with a modified Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) encased in a toxic Graphene Oxide shell; with zero long term studies and with a 100% death rate in Every Single Animal Test Case?

Umm, no thank you. I will take my chances with a 99.75% survival rate and my natural immunity, of which there is 40-60% odds I am asymptotic

Plus, there are over 11,000 dead and hundreds of thousand of fools who are hospitalized because of the vaccine

Does it contain MRC-5?

I have noticed that these vaccines are tested on 'humanized' mice in the trials. A Lifesite news article just published said that aborted baby scalps are utilized to create the humanized mice. So, keep an eye out on that too if you choose to do so.

I apologize for my attitude.

This CoupFlu crap is getting on my last nerve.

It’s still in trials. How can we make a decision like that.
