@TheMiddleWay I thought you were in the medical field.

@TheMiddleWay No interest in med that could be possible covid preventative or early treatment? Really? That's a surprise. I would think medical people would have been all ears on that topic and discussing it with peers at every chance.

@Flowerwall There’s sure a lot of people using it and some doctors are even prescribing it so it must be working.

@TheMiddleWay Thank you for your reply. When I was in China in early 2020 there were cases of reinfection. There have been a few cases where people have suffered severe allergic reactions to the Pfizer Vaccine, however, the two that I read about were two people who carried an epipen.

The AstraZeneca shot is a "viral vector vaccine" The Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna vaccines use a new technology which packs messenger RNA (mRNA) inside tiny fat droplets to instruct cells to make the spike protei

The costs of the new vaccines show a considerable difference in price between Pfizer and Astrazeneca who have said that their vaccine will be sold without making a profit. Pfizer's Vaccine pitched in at $20 whereas Astrazeneca pitched in at $4.09.

@imback What in sam hill is a KDS jab...?

@imback

No, I should not, lol...Let me explain why: I read some medicine and science TO MY OWN FANCY, not too recently at all, and I currently am in the IT field. When I was in high school about eleven years ago, I BADLY wanted to do trauma surgery, reconstructive plastic surgery, and performance medicine as a long-term career choice. I went to my AP Biology teacher to ask about the process of getting into those practices, and that didn't really work. I tried researching and researching on what I would need to do to get into med school for that stuff, and found nothing, so I stopped taking AP Bio, and used that extra time in my schedule to do the things I liked to do, since I had already finished my high school science requirements. My physics teacher some months earlier wanted me to become an engineer, and I did very well in pretty much all of my subjects so with all those options, it was hard to pick what I wanted to do with my life...I almost ended up not graduating at all and losing my class rank due to too many absences for personal reasons (food insecurity, turbulent family home, loss of my half brother in-vitro, etc.) , as well.

@imback The purpose of a vaccine is to activate the immune system against the disease. It is not that uncommon for a person to ge a light fever from a vaccine. That is normal. It means the immune system is responding.

The dangers are mainly with persons who have autoimmune problems (over active immune systems), and persons who may have allergies (this is very rare) to a chemical component in the vaccine.

Vaccines over all are very safe.

@snytiger6

Well, no. The vaccine is there to trigger your body to produce antivirus, to immunize you to the virus. It's not there to give you the disease of a fever, because that can screw up your whole body.

When people are susceptible to vaccine insult, it's because up until then, they have been trashing their bodies or were unfortunately born with some genetic condition that screws them up. That's what the more up-to-date science says and what you are saying is from YEARS back in THOSE conditions.

We kind of had the problems we did with COVID, which is really just another chest virus, because of the kind of idiocy you're peddling.

No reaction here either I had moderna vaccine, you?
