Are these vaccines turning into some sort of drug that the more we take, the more we have to take? What are the long term effects? All I know is that it is never good to let the body to be dependent on any sort of drugs or substance. There is no solution to the current covid and seems like the only so called solution is to keep taking covid vaccine. 3rd shot, 4th shot and continue until the covid no more? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ONLY problem is WE DON'T TAKE FLU VACCINE YEARLY. Bro, one has decades of understanding in regard to the virus and its vaccine, the other one is less than 2 years old. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/health/if-singapore-treats-covid-19-as-endemic-can-we-view-it-like-the-common-flu "The Straits Times speaks to Professor Leo Yee Sin, executive director of the National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID), to find out the answers to this and other questions. Q: If we treat Covid-19 as endemic, can it be thought of in the same way as the common flu? A: No, it cannot. The knowledge of influenza - for instance, that flu viruses constantly change, so yearly vaccinations are recommended - has been built up over decades of scientific research. In contrast, Covid-19 is still a relative newcomer." I really hope people should stop comparing flu and covid for their own benefit. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently, there is no effective medication to treat COVID19. We could stop taking vaccines when there is an effective medication. Vaccine reduces the seriousness of COVID19. COVID19 caused permanent scarring of lung (which will reduce lung capacity). It is personal decision to gamble. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, I strongly disagree with your comparison of flu vaccine and COVID19 vaccine. In countries like Taiwan, yearly innoculation of flu reduces death resulted from flu. On the other hand, AMDK countries like USA, has a lot of death from flu annually. I took Flu vaccine in March 2021.

I only state what was said by the Professor in the article. I just have a very simple mind.........that drugs or substance, cannot be good for the body if we keep taking it for the long run regardless it is vaccine or panadols.

Voodooman Supersonic September 16, 2021 Share September 16, 2021 22 minutes ago, Ender said: Regarding this 'natural' third shot. Will the vax develop natural immunity if they recover? I am thinking, coz since the antibodies from the mRNA are fighting and 'won' the battle, will our body be developing natural immunity?. I can't find any studies on this. I.e. Vaxxed -> breakthrough infection-> any hybrid immunity? But there are studies for those unvax who recovered, develop natural immunity and then go for booster shots will have this powerful hybrid immunity. Yes, I have the same thought. If first 2 doses can prep the body, then technically an infection should be mild yet boost the body's defense further (assuming the body won, which is 99.996% statistically speaking). But I am not expecting the data from the 2 P&M as they are pushing for the 3rd shot. If my understanding is correct, it might even make sense to mix and match third dose.

I only believe in Natural Anti-body. For flu or COVID19, there is no effective way to prevent serious onset other than Vaccine. This is especially so when I had lived in Temperate country.

Ideally we should do a blood test to test for antibodies before deciding on what to do next. Now of course dont have the time and manpower to do that. So luan luan lai. Jit tao all to get booster shots. The vaccines that we took as a child dont need what booster shots. I thought vaccines are taken one time that will last us a lifetime? Is this a push for pharma companies to make more money? Or are we simply just kiasu & kiasee? https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/some-vaccines-need-to-be-repeated-others-should-be-initiated-during-adulthood/2014/08/04/bbf269cc-8a92-11e3-833c-33098f9e5267_story.html 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
