Suppression of Free Speech on Covid

We have already gone over that data in previous comments. I don't have anything else to offer to that discussion unless you have a different dataset you are referring to.

We have already discussed why this data appears this way. We have also already discussed why the conclusion is a flawed understanding of how the data works. I am not going to reiterate what has already been said.
Yes, I know what religious bias is and how the Church of England promoted the usual interests.

There's also the issue of the temporal relationship between injection and death, which is what the video was about.

From your own source:
Effectiveness against COVID-19 hospitalization and death was 70–80% after the second dose and >90% after the booster dose.
Sounds pretty good to me.

The 70%-90% levels were not for general effectiveness, but for cases where the immune system had an opportunity to adapt.

"Notably, the rapid waning in vaccine effectiveness against Omicron infections contrasts with the more durable protection for prior infection against Omicron reinfection." (from Discussion section)

What is that even supposed to mean?

Amazing how some people seem to fear vaccines.

As someone who used to do a lot of overseas travel in the course of my work, I have been used to getting vaccinations at regular intervals, against a variety of pathogens, from yellow fever to typhoid and cholera. It really is not an issue. You get a sore arm and feel feverish for a day or two, whereas catching the disease can easily kill you.

Experience has shown no significant risk with the Covid vaccines and that, on the contrary, that they play a major role in reducing the severity of infection. The people that run the NHS vaccination campaigns are not fools and do not stand to gain in any way personally from their decisions. I had my 4th booster against covid last month and got a flu vaccination at the same time.

This conspiracy nonsense is simply not worth engaging with. The fact that the poster somehow contrives to drag the Church of England (!!) into the thread should be enough for readers to work out who is posting rationally and who is not.

Trust a political appointment by DeSantis?
Excerpted...
Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo altered an analysis released by the Florida Department of Health last year to suggest mRNA Covid-19 vaccines pose a significant health risk to men ages 18 to 39, Politico reported Monday.

DeSantis pushes to permanently ban Covid-19 mandates in Florida
Politico said it obtained a document as part of a public records request that shows Ladapo’s changes to the eight-page analysis. The changes deleted comments that said a link with slightly increased risk of cardiac-related deaths after Covid-19 vaccination was “no longer significant” for multidose vaccines and “there is little suggestion of any effect immediately following vaccination.” The document shows an added line that says mRNA vaccines may be driving an increased risk of cardiac-related death in males, especially those ages

I wouldn't be relying on State Propaganda purveyors CNN and Politico for truthful info on the Vax. Good luck finding out what is meant by "Significant health Risk" from fake news sources.

Below is some of the data from the actual Phase III clinical trials conducted by Pfizer and Moderna.

Serious adverse events of special interest following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination in randomized trials in adults​


Results: Pfizer and Moderna mRNA COVID-19 vaccines were associated with an excess risk of serious adverse events of special interest of 10.1 and 15.1 per 10,000 vaccinated over placebo baselines of 17.6 and 42.2 (95 % CI -0.4 to 20.6 and -3.6 to 33.8), respectively. Combined, the mRNA vaccines were associated with an excess risk of serious adverse events of special interest of 12.5 per 10,000 vaccinated

12.5 per 10,000 vaxed = 1 in 800 vaxed have a "Serious adverse effect" according to Pfizer's own data- Heart Damage / Myocharditis being the most common.

Is this not a "Significant Health Risk ? When the Swine flue vax achieved a Severe Adverse Event (SAE) rate of 1 in 100,000 it was deemed a significant health risk and taken off the market. By what measure is it claimed that 1 in 800 SAR is not a significant health risk to the general population and 1 in 300 for males 16-30 having a post jab myocharditis rate 300% higher than the general public.

You guys do not understand what "Effectivenes" means in context of a vax. 90% is not great and anything below this is horribly ineffective.

This is not about fear of vaccines in the past... because the mRNA products are not like vaccines of the past .. and thus should not be compared.
The claim "no significant Risk" with Covid vaccines looks to be quite false on the basis of the Phase III Clinical Trial Data which showed a risk of of a Severe Adverse Effect of 1 in 800 on average. Serious adverse events of special interest following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination in randomized trials in adults - PubMed

By what measure is 1 in 800 SAE not significant ? given the Swine Flue Vax was taken off the shelves due to an SAE of 1 in 100,000 .. being an ex Chemist .. this should be a relatively straight forward comparison of risk. The people running the vax campaign have huge amounts to gain personally.. so kind of missed the boat on that flawed assumption.

The "reducing severity of infection" claim is also problematic given numerous exceptionally good studies that show otherwise..

CDC: 74% Of People Infected in Massachusetts COVID-19 Outbreak Were Vaccinated​

The data also found that people who are fully vaccinated and get infected can carry as much of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, in their noses as those who are unvaccinated. As a result, they can spread the infection to others.

Among five people who were hospitalized in the outbreak, four were fully vaccinated.

That's nice.
