I get the expedited part...it fell under an older emergency use law.

This is NOT making sense, though....

>>The phase 3 trials were cut for the vaccines. The phase 3 trials were properly run. <<

How could they have been ‘properly run’, if they were cut?

No. I will not get the shots. Look at all the recalls of drugs that was years on the market. Then when the number of deaths became costly the will remove it.

Every drug advertised on tv tells you a laundry list of serious and fatal warnings. AND THESE VACCINES ARE STILL IN THE EXPERIMENTAL STAGES!!!

AND. we already have an OVER 95% Survival rate if we DO show symptoms and test positive.

No thanks.

No thanks! I’m not interested in some gene therapy that has never before been able to get FDA approval, and still doesn’t have FDA approval.

If people want to get a shot of something that is currently undergoing trials, that’s up to them. It’s also my choice should I refuse.

I made a typing error. The phase 3 trials were not cut short.


The group sizes, in the trials, WERE cut.

“For Moderna, the initial interim analysis will be based on the results of infection of only 53 people. The judgment reached in interim analysis is dependent upon the difference in the number of people with symptoms … in the vaccinated group versus the unvaccinated group. Moderna’s success margin is for 13 or less of those 53 to develop symptoms compared to 40 or more in their control group.”

The other vaccine makers are basing results on a similar protocol, where only a limited number of vaccinated participants are exposed to the virus to evaluate the extent of their symptoms.

Johnson & Johnson’s interim analysis will include results from 77 vaccine recipients who have been infected with SARS-CoV-2, and if fewer than 18 of them develop symptoms of COVID-19, compared to 59 in the control group, the vaccine will be considered successful.

In AstraZeneca’s case, the interim analysis includes 50 vaccine recipients. The vaccine will be a success if 12 or fewer develop symptoms after exposure to SARS-CoV-2, compared to 19 in the 25-person control group.

Pfizer’s interim analysis is the smallest of the bunch, with just 32 vaccine recipients. Their success margin is seven or fewer vaccine recipients developing symptoms, compared to 25 in the control group. In the primary analysis, efficacy is set to about 60%, and at most, 164 volunteers will be included in that analysis.

Especially concerning are that those receiving the vaccine in these trials are young and healthy individuals who are not really at high risk of dying from COVID-19. This makes the results of these trials highly questionable in the far more vulnerable population of the elderly.....

A LOT of interesting info, regarding the trials, in the article....

Yes...tehey were cut...that is why experimental..

I am familiar with trials too...(I sent you a FRmail)...these were not typical.

No one can predict with any accuracy what are long-term effects. However, with everyone getting the jab, we will find out.

The governor of Texas has publicly stated many times that all vaccines are voluntary.

Getting a ride in an airplane is as well.

So far...

As if we’ll ever see actual, true numbers?

Heck, we seen 'numbers' for over 40 years, since Roe V Wade.

They have not made any difference.

“I think it has mostly a placebo effect.”

I was hoping for that, i.e., that people who get the jab(s) would feel safe and begin living normal lives again. Still, the ones I know who’ve had the vax continue to live in fear, in masks, and distancing. [sigh] People’s minds are forever altered.

The Fauci fear porn has been evilly effective and provided the impetus for mail-in voting — exactly what it was intended to do. If it hadn’t been an election year, people would have remained sane and handled the situation as we’ve done for decades — as the enhanced flu that it was/is.

The author says, “take the shot”. I say NFW.

I got out spring of '63.

Bought one of these (only with the 273 V8 in it).

Wife, daughter and I drove it to Florida to watch Armstrong launch to the moon.

Good times!

Got back home in time to watch them step out onto the moon on TV.

20’s here. Why should I take an experimental vaccine for a flu that kills almost no one my age?

Think I wrote, if I was 20-30's I'd think twice about taking the vaccine.
