Will there be Spring practice, Covid-19 vaccine

What we keep referring to as vaccine is legally not vaccine in most cases. Calling them a vaccine outside this 'pandemic' would have cost a doctor his license prior to this last year. Many of these are rebranded gene therapy, a dangerous technology frought with long term side effects. But hey, it's experimental so your health insurance company is off the hook if anything goes wrong.

Some gene therapy. You all were talking about Pfizer and Moderna as Gene therapy I thought Cool. I hope I transform into a hot guy like Fabio! Damn! I must've of ordered the placebo by mistake.
 
Just got back from the Field House after receiving my second dose of Pfizer. 2 weeks and I'm considered fully vaccinated. 2 weeks from tomorrow, we will have breakfast at our favorite Mom & Pop joint. Haven't been there since the last part of February in 2020.

RePORT ⟩ RePORTER (nih.gov)

General Electric has been awarded the grant by the government health agency), as the NIH looks to fund development projects for “novel, non-traditional approaches to identify the current SARS-CoV-2 virus.”

The project is to create a device, small enough to fit inside a phone or watch, that can “directly capture, detect, and identify” COVID-19 virus particles. The idea is that the “bioreceptors” would be able to detect particles of the virus, and able to differentiate between them and other particles they come into contact with.

Once the sensors have determined the presence of the virus, they would “automatically” transmit this information “to a touchscreen or other digital device.”

Question is, whos device?

Also on the bright side of this, we are going to end up with the single largest sample group for an experimental drug in history. The downside is that the animal trials had a really high death rate when the cat, ferret, rat, etc next encountered a different strain of coronavirus. Basically, the possibility exists that the common cold might kill you because supposedly it can confuse your immune system and lead to it attacking every cell in your body.

So, why is this different from a natural immune response?
I'll check on your answer

And the sky could fall in tomorrow, almost got hit by an asteroid this week, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!

Several reasons.

To begin with, a virus is an acute infection. Breathe it in and it starts messing with the cells in your lungs the body recognizes it as being acute, and as long as you have a healthy immune system it fights it off in a fairly isolated manner. A vaccine of any kind introduces that same mutation throughout the body as opposed to just being in a particular spot, which would happen from natural infection. With an mRNA vaccine, we go a step further and what might have been seen as a respiratory virus may start out really getting out of control in your kidneys. From that point on, since your kidneys are the place that your immune system learned about the virus, when you breathe in a relative of the coronavirus and it gets into your lungs, your body will recognize it as one that's gonna go after the kidneys. Since the Mrna vaccine has reprogrammed the cells to produce that protein spike, it will produce antibodies again that attack the cells in the kidneys, even though there may no problem there. This is what they found in the test animals that were being used in all of the proof of concept trials and why they had a high incidence of death in the weeks and months that followed.

It isn't exactly an auto-immune disorder but it kind of resembles one. To their credit, although after the Vioxx debacle everything they say should be taken with a grain of salt, Merck warned about this and said it would be impossible to create a safe coronavirus vaccine.
 
Why don't they make a vaccine the same way as they always have? What is the deal? Why the mRNA "vaccine"? Why can't it be like the flu vaccine?
 
CDC itself admits to having no identifiable virus
Deeply hidden in an official document on Covid-19, the CDC ruefully admitted as early as summer 2020 that it does not have a measurable virus: ‘As no quantified (= measured) isolated virus objects of 2019-nCoV are available at this time…’ (page 39 of the ‘CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel’ (July 13) In other words, the CDC, as one of THE leading medical authorities in the world, could not, and still cannot, demonstrate a virus.

About the for this purpose scientifically totally debunked, but still shamelessly abused PCR test, the CDC wrote under the heading ‘limitations’: ‘The detection of viral RNA cannot demonstrate the presence of an infectious virus, or that 2019-nCoV is the causative agent of clinical symptoms.’ And in addition: ‘This test cannot exclude other diseases caused by other bacterial or viral pathogens.’

In other words, we cannot prove that the people who get sick and are hospitalized, and very occasionally die, were sickened by a new coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2, nor can we prove that it caused them to develop a new disease called ‘Covid-19.’ It could just as easily be a different virus and a different disease. (And since all the symptoms, including severe pneumonia, correspond seamlessly to what flu can cause historically in vulnerable people… ‘if it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, it is a duck’.


Reward of $265,000 for demonstrating coronavirus

Earlier this year, Samuel Eckert’s German Team and the Isolate Truth Fund pledged a reward of at least $265,000 for any scientist who can provide incontrovertible proof that the SARS-CoV-2 virus has been isolated and therefore exists. They too pointed out that not one lab in the world has yet been able to isolate this corona virus.

Yes, systems scientists claim they have, but this ‘isolation’ consists only of a sample from the human body, which is a ‘soup’ full of different kinds of cells, remains of viruses, bacteria, et cetera. With the help of (toxic) chemicals one then searches for some (residual) particles that may indicate a virus that once existed or may still exist, after which this is designated as ‘evidence’.
 
Do you see the irony in this response? Covid, with a better than 99% survival rate, has had you in "sky is falling" mode for the better part of 14 months now.
BWA HA HA. I would hardly consider my mode sky is falling.

Yes, I think it was handled shoddily by the reality star guy. Yes, I got pissed at the fools who think they don't need to wear a mask. Yes, I think that closing down and canceling sports was the right decision at the time. Most left minded folks I know agree with me, as well as a lot of right minded folks.

Did I hide in basement -- eff no. I've gone to the store, Joanns, etc. I've tried to do it in ways that enhance my ability to stay healthy. I've never quaked in fear over C-19 but, unlike a lot of posters on here and people in town I know, I recognized the potential for C-19 cost hub his life or me mine and tried to mitigate those chances.

Yeah, you're right (snark alert) I was in "sky is falling" mode for the last 14 months - - NOT!

Alrighty then. Enjoy your first meal at Mom & Pops Diner since last February.:wink:

alrighty then, I will. I know very few people who have been in a restaurant. Take away yes, but indoor seating now. Our C-19 rates have been much higher hear (3rd per capita in the USA for quite a while) so perhaps our circumstances are different. People are just now starting to head back to restaurants in any number. I drive by a lot of restaurants running errands and there are just not cars there. Those that have drive throughs have had good drive through traffic but their lobbies and in-door seating areas have been pretty much barren. I can only think of one restaurant in town that had much in the way of floor traffice since all restaurants reopened and we have always done take out from them. Too many tables in too small an area. I don't like being elbowed by the guy at the next table while I'm trying to eat.

Perhaps in GI that is true. But where I live in southwest Nebraska that isnt true at all. I hardly know anyone who HASNT been out to eat.
