CitizenVectron Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 tl;dr: as many of us suspected, having three doses of mRNA vaccine not only reduces severe disease, it also reduces viral load overall (and clears up faster), meaning it reduces spread. Total immunity wanes after booster, but not protection against severe disease comparatively. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneticBlueprint Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 My wife tested positive for COVID when we were in the hospital and she was delivering our newborn. I tested negative. I tested again a few days later when I started getting a sore throat and our kids started having fevers. Negative. Yay vaccines. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So questioning is a problem? She is a neuroscientist, I doubt her questions stem from Q related conspiracies, because I believe she has had this stance well before covid, and has nothing to do with covid itself. There's a wide gulf between a scientist questioning them and what the right is doing. I would also say eating well and exercising was also extremely important when it comes to who died or got extremely ill with covid. CDC study finds about 78% of people hospitalized for Covid were overweight or obese WWW.CNBC.COM An overwhelming majority of people who have been hospitalized, needed a ventilator or died from Covid-19 have been overweight or obese, the CDC said. 78% of the hospitalized were overweight/obese, and the percentage of those dying is probably higher. i realize theres a lot of systemic problems with Obesity, but it's definitely something we should be tackling. The government did nothing to promote physical well-being during the worst of the pandemic. We should have been encouraging fitness and exercise outdoors, not JUST mask up and wait for vaccine to save you. North America is very sick. Almost 35% are considered obese, and over half are overweight. The answer isn't just more medication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interviews were pre-COVID and from mid-2010s. And yes, it's a fucking problem when you're questioning if vaccines "mess up kids brains".
