The German non-profit Correctiv fact-checked one of Bhakdi's YouTube videos, and found a number of problematic claims, including the claim that any COVID-19 vaccine would be "pointless", and that the virus posed no more threat than influenza.[20] Writing for Foreign Policy, Tyson Barker (Head of DGAP's Technology & Global Affairs Program)[29] described Bhakdi as a prominent example from a "crop of debunked but credentialed so-called experts minting conspiracy theories and undermining fact-based information".[30] In October 2020 the University of Mainz issued a statement to the effect that it does not support Bhakdi's views.[31][32]

There is data showing this stuff goes to antigen presenting cells only and there’s data showing it goes to both and all cells. That can induce different responses in different people. So can a foreign synthetic fat particle. That’s why you’re getting reactions plus inflammatory signaling from the cells saying they’re in trouble and have foreign proteins.

That makes sense to me. The vaccine doesn’t stop you from contracting Covid, but it should reduce the effects of the disease and reduce the numbers having to be admitted to hospital.

Absolutely correct, how can a body produce antibodies with adaptive immunity without exposure? Especially long term immunity going on months or years. That’s not how the immune system works at all. The vaccine will not prevent you from becoming infected with, sharing or developing symptoms.

Many around are asking "you getting the vaccine??", to which I reply "nah, I don't think it's ready and vetted well enough yet". Now don't get me wrong, I fully support vaccinations. But it takes years to work out the kinks, and this one isn't ready. The only attractive thing about it at the moment would be No More Facemasks, and hopefully life back to some level of normal, at least for me, right? But that got me thinking, with all the left's hammering into our heads, "get your vaccines, otherwise you're an idiot". But I can't help but notice, all these libtards who continue to wear their masks after receiving the vaccine, which prompted me to search for and find THIS article...

So, reading through those five points, my question to you ATS is... what's the purpose of getting THIS vaccine. Do the possible benefits outweigh the probable risks?

mRNA no, these have the potential to be much safer than standard vaccines and more effective.

So, until herd immunity has been established, the wearing of masks and social distancing rules will still apply.

That's not true. Once you have received both shots your body will produce sufficient antibodies to prevent you from getting infected. The antibodies bind to the incoming virus preventing its ability to bind to potential host cells. That's how vaccines work: Stimulate the production of specific antibodies which target the virus and block it.

Kroger supermarket chain is so gung-ho about the vaccines, they are punishing employees who decide to NOT be vaccinated.

The new rules will apply only to salaried, nonunion employees using the company’s health care plan, according to the memo, the WSJ reported. The Cincinnati-based grocery store has incentivized employers to get vaccinated with $100 payments.

Here in Europe there is no systematic examination before vaccination, my opinion is that it should be because many people already have a disease, maybe they do not know, and the vaccine has a negative effect, doctors have not examined everything about the vaccine and what is negative can affect.
For all vaccines before this, there was a systematic examination, blood analysis, X-ray examination, blood pressure examination, if any of that is wrong, you go for further examinations, and only later the vaccine.
Now they are too eager to get the vaccine no matter what your health condition is.
It’s already been four years since the program AlphaGO, with neural networks and learning modes, defeated Lee Sedol, the Go world champion. The strategy game StarCraft II may be the next to have a machine as reigning champion.
