Well, here's how that works. If you're a healthy 45 year old and get the covid vaccine and then die 3 days later from brain swelling and a fever of 108*, then it must have been something else that killed you and not the vaccine.
But, OTOH, if you're 94 and in a nursing home and suffering from cancer, diabetes, and emphysema and you die two days after testing positive for Covid, then Covid was the obvious cause of your death. |

So what type of "DOC" are you a "PAIR A" to post these false equivalencies? Maybe I am wrong assuming by your user name it's medical and maybe it refers to the fact you own two boats each separately docked? If so I apologize. If it is medical do you suggest to your patients to not give their children childhood vaccines because they could die anyway from falling off the jungle gym?

Off topic, and not to be disrespectful... but this comment just made me laugh.

Actually the intent was to make one grimace with a side order of pun.

I will restate the question to them. Are you a Paradox or are you medical? I am not medical but I read a lot of medical stuff. I have more than once disagreed with Paira on medical stuff.

Second, yes, some people do complain about getting flu shots because there doesn't seem to be much correlation between people who get the shots and people who get the flu. I know some people who never get the flu shot and never seem to be sick with the flu. I also know people who get the shots yearly, yet frequently seem to come down with the flu. I would suggest that flu shots are probably recommended for pretty much the same people that Covid shots are recommended for... i.e. those who are elderly with comorbidities. For younger and/or more healthy and robust individuals, the flu presents very little danger (percentagewise) ... kind of like Covid. Third, the thing that's "wrong" with getting annual shots for Covid is that this isn't what we were told in the beginning when the Covid vaccines became available. Most people seemed to believe that it was two shots and done. Now, the "medical experts" have kept moving the goalposts on us and tell us to ignore what they said a few months ago and instead do what they are saying now. It's hard to have trust and confidence in someone who keeps saying that their advice a few months ago was wrong, but they know better today. What's to keep them from moving the goalposts yet again in a few more months? Answer: Absolutely nothing. Not only is it possible that they will move the goalposts in a few months, but I would consider it LIKELY. If you want to constantly cling to every word the "experts" say and never hold them accountable for previous things they have told you that proved wrong... well, that's your choice. I tend to be a bit more skeptical of people whose advice is constantly changing, particularly if it is contradicting their previous advice. |

What facts? It's a well-known fact that every year there are different strains of flu in each country that are new from the year before. It's a well-known fact that they guess what strains are going to be prevalent in any given year. Anyone who listens to news or reads newspapers is aware of this.
Variants of Covid are not unusual. Vaccines will have to adjust. We will have to get boosters. I never thought differently and am surprised anyone would think it was going to be one and done. I don't believe anyone in the medical community suggested it was going to be one and done. Where is that fact? As far as the medical community changing their advice and strategies, that has been going on for centuries. As medical science advances and more studies are done, advice changes. Everyone always knows better as new viruses evolve. Give them a break. This is new; we are all learning. They're doing the best they can. You said "You are making assumptions without any facts to back them up. First, no one HAS to get a flu shot every year. Some people never get flu shots. Some people get them occasionally. And some people get them yearly. " I don't understand what fact I didn't have. What I said had nothing to do with people having to get a flu shot every year. I was simply stating that each year there are different strains from the year before, and IF YOU WANT to get a flu shot, you know that it will not be a one and done. And probably neither will your covid shot.

But there's more to it than that. Their public statements are intended for "public consumption". In other words, there's a healthy dose of CYA (Cover Your A**) included in every public statement. |
