AstraZenecz/Covidshield What Is Your Expierence?
Sharpe replied to WeednFeed's topic in General Discussion
A few family members had similar symptoms, maybe not quite as bad, that also went away quickly. This was after 1st astra zeneca dose. -
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-56665517 "Under-30s in the UK are to be offered an alternative Covid vaccine to the AstraZeneca jab due to the evidence linking it to rare blood clots." Well gee guys thanks for picking that up in the clinical trial. Guess they won't be going ahead with their experimentation on children, too late for the ones that got it already : https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-56656356 Imagine enrolling your kid in one of these trials when their risk is almost 0 if they are healthy. I'm sure all potential side effects have now been found. But hey let's potentially kill or fuck up my almost 0 risk 8 year old to "save" 90 year old grandpa. Makes sense. Almost if by coincidence the same day this all happens, moderna starts rolling out in the UK. Sign me up.

Well I hope you are right. There are other treatments (pandemrix which I mentioned) that had major issues after coming to market that give me pause. I see no reason to personally take the risk, even if it is minute. As stated previously, that equation changes the older you get. I'm sure the websites you mention paint the vaccines in a very positive light, as I'm sure they did 10 or so years ago. I wouldn't mind seeing the links, I may even have read some of them already. You asked 7toes for some evidence that steps were skipped so I provided some evidence. That doesn't make it fact either. Everyone hopefully gets to make their own minds up, but I guess we will see on that front.

"And if this DNA is not digested well enough, if residues are left, this harbours risks – I’ll come back to the risks from DNA residues, but the activity of the enzymes has to be monitored well and at the end you need to have a pure RNA without any more DNA. And that is not the case. BioNTech has admitted that there are DNA contaminants." "So. Requirements were also made relating to the fact that they have not conducted a transport verification study. This means they have no idea whether the vaccine is still viable after transportation. That is currently being performed." "It was found that the integrity of the RNA always varies in the batches that had been made. I will come back to that again. There needs to be a standard that is always the same for each batch. This should be used as the reference to measure the standard. And they only have this of course for the processes of the clinical phase. Now we have to generate a new standard for the new manufacturing processes, i.e., for the commercial sales. That hasn’t been done yet, they are in the process of doing that now." "So it is theoretically possible that this linearised DNA that is in there as a contaminant could integrate into the host’s cell nucleus in a dividing cell, linearised DNA is optimal for integration. Circular DNA is not. DNA from bacteria is circular and is not as easy to integrate. It happens, but not so often. But as soon as you have a situation like we do here, it will happen more often. That is the risk. I didn’t really want to get into what can happen if this is the case: genes can be switched on and off, upregulated and downregulated, cancer can develop – there are a lot more possibilities. So this contamination definitely has to be reduced." "WW: But these are processes that are probably not the same in all patients. Whether this happens at all is stochastic at the most, and if it does happen, the results are probably also dependent on each individual and what else is going on in their cells. So one can’t say put that in and this is what will happen, these are eventualities – if a million or so and so many thousands of people are vaccinated, then one can perhaps say with a certain degree of probability after 10 or 20 years whether something will happen or not. VSK: Yes. WW: With some things perhaps after 3 or 4 years. But one needs some time to be able to detect such effects clinically. VSK: That’s exactly right. One never finds a group that all have the same mutation, this varies in people - exactly." "VSK: That’s fine. So I’ll continue. There are also contaminants with regard to the lipids (30.32). There are two new lipids, they have focused on them. One is ALC-0315, that is the cationic lipid, and the other is ALC-0159, the PEGylated peptide, the PEG component. And they have found that the end product – that there are contaminants in the end product in some batches. They don’t know where this is coming from, probably from the cationic lipid." "The EMA Committee issued complaints about 20 points in total regarding Good Manufacturing Practice. These are very extensive points, it will be quite a challenge to manage this in half a year I’d say, and they have issued 23 recommendations for further development of the quality of the of the product. And then there are another six pages at the end: I’ll quote from that: “The assessment of the safety risk is considered acceptable; there are theoretical calculations of worst-case concentrations from residues from the manufacturing process, but these have been found to be below established safety limits”. What this means is that our health depends on theoretical calculations, and not on actual tests in practice." Sorry to copy and paste so much, that's about half way into it. Could easily copy more. None of this fills me with confidence. As I stated I can't speak to the veracity of these claims. If she is telling the truth, it looks like things have been rushed. Personally given my own personal level of risk, I see no reason to risk potential side effects. I don't have the expertise to know if she is making up these claims or exaggerating them. If there is even a small chance she is telling the truth that is plenty for me.

The risk of serious complications may well be minimal or non-existent. I see no reason to take the chance at this stage. They said Pandemrix was safe before it was taken off the market. Why were the serious life altering side effects (for a small minority) not discovered during the clinical trials before it was brought to market? Does the human species understand physiology well enough to say with absolute certainty that "x" treatment won't cause complications? I don't get medical interventions to protect others. If they want protection, they can take the vaccine themselves if they think it is a good idea. For the small minority that can't, sorry still not doing it. I haven't seen the massive drive for personal responsibility in all this to reduce obesity rates for example, which is a major risk factor for dieing from coronavirus.

It "feels suspicious" when they are trying to get perfectly healthy young people to take the vaccine for something that has almost no risk to them. This is easily explained by fear and greed however. Fear because "everyone must get the vaccine for everyone to be safe" which is really just a ruse for fattening wallets. Even if all the usual protocols were followed, how long does it take for antibody dependent enhancement to develop? Prion disease? Autoimmunity? What about the narcolepsy that hundreds developed after the swine flu vaccine 10 years ago? Maybe these effects would have shown up by now, I haven't taken the extra step of researching this as personally I have no plans on getting vaccinated. I do hope the vaccine is very successful with minimal complications. Very few medical interventions are without risk though. So where you are on the continuum of risk should play a role in your choosing whether to receive the vaccine or not. I see a lot of people say they'd rather have vaccine side effects for a day or two than the virus. Well how about if you are 20 and the virus is a slightly raised temperature for a few days and not much else or the risk of lifelong narcolespy (hypothetically)? Not really a good trade off. The decision is perhaps more difficult in the 50-60 range where risk somewhat increases relative to those that are younger.

All I know is when you take some humans and inject fear and greed, the chances of something going wrong skyrocket. To me the individual needs to weigh up their own risk associated with contracting coronavirus and decide if the vaccine is a good idea for them. Telling a perfectly healthy 20 year old that has a minuscule risk to take any of the vaccines that from certain perspectives appear to have been rushed to market seems shortsighted. Iatrogenesis is real, there is no reason to risk potential life long complications if your risk is very low. On the other hand if you are an 80 year old diabetic heart disease patient it's probably a worthwhile risk.

This is meaty, but you asked : http://enformtk.u-aizu.ac.jp/howard/gcep_dr_vanessa_schmidt_krueger/ "The problem that BioNTech had is that in the clinical phase the product, i.e. the RNA, was produced with completely different techniques to how it is being produced now. During the clinical phase they only needed small volumes of vaccine, they were able to use very expensive techniques that delivered highly purified end products. Now that they have entered mass production, that is no longer possible, they have had to switch to lower-cost processes, e.g. using huge quantities of DNA that functions as the substrate to be able to produce the RNA in an in-vitro transcription reaction." So – the integrity of the RNA means of course the RNA quality. They have found that this is not very high: it was higher for the processes during the clinical phase. In this report they don’t say how high it is, but I have other information that says 78% of the RNA was good [translator: this refers to the integrity], the remainder was not, but now they have found new batches with only 55% RNA integrity, i.e., half of it is basically unviable." I can't speak to the veracity of her claims, well above my pay grade. Reiner Fuellmich is German/American lawyer preparing lawsuits in America, Canada and elsewhere due to the mishandling of the coronavirus response.

What's your stance on mandatory vaccination? Vaccine passports? When governments say that the vaccine is "safe", do you believe that that means there is zero risk some people will have long term negative consequences from said vaccine?

There is also the command /disconnect to take you back to the pregame page. You can also hit alt+esc to get back to windows without having to restart. Sometimes the game does completely lock up, Loco made a great little program called cod4killer.exe that lets you get back to windows without having to restart. It think it is available in the teamspeak downloads, not sure if it's anywhere else. Also, get yourself an nvme or regular ssd drive and say goodbye to 3 minute loads. Your computer will load in 10 seconds, maybe faster with nvme (don't have one yet, but soon). Crucial have a great little compatibility scanner to see what your computer will take : https://uk.crucial.com/store/systemscanner -
