Default Taking multiple different Covid-19 Vaccine shots

Hello-
Now that JNJ’s application for emergency use authorization has been submitted and approval may occur within the next two weeks, a third separate covid-19 vaccine will be available to combat the virus.
Since each of these current vaccines are not 100% reliable, has there been any discussion for anyone in good health in taking all three separate vaccines ?

I am confident that some have clandestinely already "double dipped" and have already had both the Pfizer & Moderna vaccine. I wonder if these people are any more protected ? I wonder if there has been any discussion if this practice is medically sound?

Pfizer and Moderna offer 94% coverage against the Covid-19 virus and they are both taken in a series of two with two and three weeks interval apart. Many people here in The Villages have been notified of their second shot of Moderna in the next five or six days. At that time they can be as confidant as any human on this earth that they are protected from hospitalization or death from Covid-19.

In Great Britain at this time they are studying the effect of using one and then the other of the two; Moderna and Pfizer. We will hear as soon as that study is completed and evaluated.

Johnson and Johnson is expected to be released soon and is one shot.

Astra-Zenaca is now in the line up to be released.

I am surprised to read that you think people can easily obtain this shot and have it administered in a way not prescribed. I don't think that is happening.

I don't think that is happening at all.

I am not a medical person. I am a retired Preschool teacher and card carrying mother and I am in charge of most medical decisions in my home. I would not tolerate such foolishness to even be discussed.

Heterologous immunity is where an immune response to two pathogens can increase or decrease a response to a different pathogen

So what does that mean? While both Pfizer and Moderna target the spike protein the immune response is probably different .

So far so good right? You may cover multiple strains and never have to worry about any sars-cov-2 pathogen that enters your body.

The problem lies in that these immune responses can trigger severe immunopathology to self antigens.

I.e. you give yourself autoimmune disease. The chance is low but it is not zero. For this reason it is a bad idea to get multiple vaccines for the same disease.

Not only that, if you had a strong immune response to a prior vaccine, you'll probably be laid up for a day or two as your body mounts a massive response to vaccine #2.

From what I understand, and please correct me if this is wrong, the only difference between the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines is in the inert ingredients. It's a bit like the difference between Tylenol and a generic brand. The actual medication is identical but the binders and fillers are different.

The Johnson and Johnson one shot vaccine is somewhere between 66% and 72% effective versus the 95% for the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines.

I don't think that any vaccine has ever been 100% effective. The annual influenza vaccine reduces the risk of flu illness by between 40% and 60%.

Even birth control pill fail .3% of the time.

Why would anyone of sound mind have more than the prescribed amount of vaccine?
It's hard enough to convince some to have the vaccination anyway.
Don't believe a word of it!

Brought to you by the same people that gave you - Wildest information I heard on COVID vaccine

Somebody has too much time on their hands or just likes to start rumors.
