Volunteering in a vaccine centre, I was one of the first to receive two doses of Pfizer’s messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine, at the end of January 2021. Although I knew my individual risk was small from COVID-19 at age 43 with optimal metabolic health, the main reason I took the jab was to prevent transmission of the virus to my vulnerable patients. During early 2021, I was both surprised and concerned by a number of my vaccine-hesitant patients and people in my social network who were asking me to comment on what I regarded at the time as merely ‘anti-vax’ propaganda.
I was asked to appear on Good Morning Britain after a previously vaccine-hesitant film director Gurinder Chadha, Order of the British Empire (OBE), who was also interviewed, explained that I convinced her to take the jab.
But a very unexpected and extremely harrowing personal tragedy was to happen a few months later that would be the start of my own journey into what would ultimately prove to be a revelatory and eye-opening experience so profound that after six months of critically appraising the data myself, speaking to eminent scientists involved in COVID-19 research, vaccine safety and development, and two investigative medical journalists, I have slowly and reluctantly concluded that contrary to my own initial dogmatic beliefs, Pfizer’s mRNA vaccine is far from being as safe and effective as we first thought. This critical appraisal is based upon the analytical framework for practicing and teaching evidence-based medicine, specifically utilising individual clinical expertise and/or experience with use of the best available evidence and taking into consideration patient preferences and values.

I don't think you have read it not that you know what you are talking about.
And here we are with the typical "insult the person because they don't agree with me" it didn't take you long did it!
You lose any argument straight away.
What insult? I don't think you have read it though. No insults are here. It has taken me long enough about 13 pages where in the last 3-4 I keep refuting a range of unsubstantiated claims such as the ones above.
not that you know what you are talking about.
Really? You're not trying to be insulting?
You're the typical anti-vaxer, you must all believe what I post with an opinion piece that doesn't have any actual data, then when people question you on it, you become insulting.
I read it and found it lacking any real data.

People can read the article and judge for themselves.
It contains no research and is full of bias, personal anecdotes and subjective opinions.

Ah I see! You don't have any arguments and are calling me anti-vaxxer. Expectable. It doesn't change much though as I have keto refueling the unsubstantiated claims made in this thread for a long time now.
What I have posted though shows precisely that your narrative isn't served in this case. On the other hand you still posting that the contributions at the end of the first page are the same as the conclusions. Simply because you haven't read the paper.

If you think so then you should write to the journal and ask them to retract the paper.
Make a good case though as your personal takes isn't evidence. On the other hand Dr Malhotra has published and has been peer reviewed.

In fact, those posts "refuting" the paper themselves appear to be full of bias and subjective opinions and lacking in any research.
I second this. If the Dr. is wrong, post his assertion and your rebuttal. Otherwise, this is a subjective and biased opinion.

Look at the slop they've devolved the thread into. 5 pages of railing against an author and questioning its existence, validity, questions about what is a review define research is this peer review really as good as other peer reviews
"antivaxxr" thrown in for some laughs
Nothing at all regarding content.

You have said that he hasn't published the paper he did earlier. And then you upgraded your argument that it's not a peer reviewed paper after it was made clear that he did publish the paper.

It's a legit peer reviewed study. The shills are strong in this thread and seem to all come out at the same time. What discord server are you guys coordinating on?
