A self administered vaccine could work, I guess. Yet I see plenty of comparisons to the flu vaccine and it's variable effectiveness.
Early days, I'd say see where we are winter 2022. Our countermeasures will hopefully improve... Or we'll all be popping boosters like crazy.
Natural immunity does nothing to stop a cold. Most people get one once a year at the least

That’s a really good idea, I would focus on foods that target RNA dependent RNA polymerase, protease inhibition, lectin binding, RNA interference, PAMP recognition by TLR, CLR etc., viral host cell binding, and proper activation of interferon pathways, mostly type 1, which help the cell activate its antiviral defenses inside the cell and signal the correct cells to come help from other areas.
Plus help out with the inflammatory signaling and preventing viral proteins from moving to the nucleus and interfering there. My guess, plants and fungi lol.
You and angelchemuel or whatever are two I really remember at being spot on with the natural remedy stuff, even hitting the same targets as pharmaceutical targets without nasty downstream impacts.

It makes you sound ignorant and hurts your cause.
Vaccines do not CAUSE mutations.

This is what i wasnt sure about (your quote)
Natural immunity does nothing to stop a cold. Most people get one once a year at the least
There are roughly 200 known variants of what they call the common cold. Your natural immunity does actually do something to stop the cold, IF its the same variant of cold.
But I see you cleared that up the second time.
Vaccines work with immune system to stop a virus from replicating or from having a field day before they give up and move to the next host
‘Leaky’ Vaccines Can Produce Stronger Versions of Viruses
www.healthline.com...
“We now are entering an era when we are starting to develop next-generation vaccines that are ‘leaky’ because they are for diseases that do not do a good job of producing strong natural immunity — diseases like HIV and malaria,” Read said.
What’s the answer?
Rigorous testing and vigilant monitoring of next-generation vaccines to prevent the evolution of more-virulent strains of viruses will help.

Vaccines Could Drive The Evolution Of More COVID-19 Mutants - NPR
Mutant coronaviruses can make vaccines less effective. At the same time, vaccines can contribute to virus mutations, but this is a slow process that should be manageable.
Are Vaccines Making COVID Worse?
Even CNN has conceded that: “Vaccination alone won’t stop the rise of variants and in fact could push the evolution of strains that evade their protection, researchers warned.”
The point of this thread is to talk about current mutations that are dominant. These are not caused by the vaccines. Vaccine induced immunity that is very specific can drive mutations, like antibiotics can however this takes a long time and there is no evidence this is happening right now. It is incorrect to say you know that mutations are being caused BY the vaccines. They are most likely selecting them to be more dominant however.

you have the comprehension issues here.
Last try
You said "Natural immunity does NOTHING to stop a cold" in your first post right?
I asked if you were sure that was right.
You then changed or amended what you said and actually contradicted yourself.
Can the natural immune have an effect against the common cold?

Leaky vaccines increase the likelihood of more mutations occurring. This is simply because there are many more copies of the virus being produced in a population. The more reproductions of the virus, the greater the chance of mutations occurring.
If a vaccine prevents infection from occurring, the virus doesn't reproduce in the vaccinated portion of the population. The vaccines that we have available now do not prevent infection.

Now the Goverment saying all kinds of crap has not helped in anyway.
US could reach herd immunity by summer, experts say

“If you look at the planned rollout of the vaccines, we would hopefully get to that point by the end of the summer and the early fall,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, said.
