However, do I need to really type it out or are you being obtuse? Allowing the virus to mutate leads to more hospital visits, deaths, and the efficacy of the vaccines are tested. Kids are now getting the delta variant. In the height of the pandemoc, people were putting off surgeries and doctor visits. The reason almost all politicians and news outlets are advocating for vaccination is because life can get back to normal. I don't want booster shots.

Another scientific study concluded that the ARR (Absolute Reduction Rate) of the mRNA Covid vaccines are less than 2%. In other words, if you take the vaccine, there is a less than 2% chance it will make any difference against Covid for the average person.

ARR for Chickenpox vaccine is 2.4% (+/- 1% depending on variables)

The covid related vaccines have an ARR of 1-8% depending on the type and variables.

So ARR is an important number to review, and should be looked at by scientists and physicians to determine the effectiveness of a vaccine. It shouldn't be thrown around by armchair, Tucker Carlson watchers without context.

And the ARR is only a similar situation if you are talking about serious health outcomes with chickenpox. If you use 2.4% as a comparison to 1%.... but they are talking about different outcomes then that is the definition of a distortion.

So simmer down champ. You presented a completely reasonable piece of information. I am not denying that. ARR is a fact based statistic. I supplied some completely reasonable information related to it. I live in this free republic as well.

“Let’s say a study enrolled 20,000 patients into the control group and 20,000 in the vaccine group. In that study, 200 people in the control group got sick and 0 people in the vaccine group got sick. Even though the vaccine efficacy would be a whopping 100%, the ARR would show that vaccines reduce the absolute risk by just 1% (200/20,000= 1%). For the ARR to increase to 20% in our example study with a vaccine with 100% efficacy, 4,000 of the 20,000 people in the control group would have to get sick (4,000/20,000= 20%).”

Aug 3, 2021, 5:27 PM

the world works that they still use corporate "fact-checking" with a straight face.

Fact-checking isn't something other people do for you boss. It's something you do for yourself.

That article is slanted AF. ARR is very simple. It's the percentage chance that a vaccine (or treatment) will make a difference for all of the people who take it. It factors in more than just people who get the sickness, it also factors in the chances of getting the sickness (or being affected by it) in the first place.

What on earth did you think that corporate propaganda offered the conversation?

I don’t think you realize that your argument isn’t really a


Aug 4, 2021, 8:04 AM

meaningful argument.

Do you even understand what point you were trying to make that the calculations are different?

I defined exactly what the number meant and I think it’s more useful to most people instead of the slanted numbers that are given out by pharmaceutical companies to inflate peoples perception of how useful the vaccine is. It is a fact that less than 2% of people will actually have any health outcome change due to the vaccine. You can’t deny that, and that’s the only point of bringing up ARR. The other number is for people who are vaccinated AND contracted Covid. That is not for all vaccinated people, it is for less than 5% of those people. Why would you or “fact-checkers” not want people to realize that?

You are just assuming, because you’ve likely been manipulated, that there’s something illegitimate about bringing up that ARR... which is a ridiculous failure of critical thinking. Instead of assuming that some corporate propaganda designed to manipulate you somehow invalidates what I’m saying, why don’t you think specifically about what you were trying to argue and go from there.

Aug 4, 2021, 8:49 AM

You can't ignore the RRR as slanted and incorrect any more than you can ignore the ARR as incorrect. One cannot be interpreted without the other. The ARR will be a low number, especially in cases like this where neither group is intentionally exposed to the virus. We have no idea what the risk of either group was. Were 50% potentially exposed to the virus? 25%? 10%? 5%? Less? More? If the trial was the effectiveness of a vaccine against poison ivy then everyone would be exposed to poison ivy and the ARR would be a much more meaningful (and the Lancelot paper even discusses the unknowns in the risk).

If your absolute risk of being hit by a car when jay walking is 2%, is that insignificant?

Your absolute risk of anything is significant when deciding


Aug 4, 2021, 9:02 AM

how to evaluate relative risk decisions.

If someone believes there is a 95% percent chance the vaccine will help them simply by taking it... then they are literally wrong. The 90% numbers were obviously always bull. Israel has proven that thoroughly at this point. Even so.... when people find out about the ARR it surprises them. But it's the most important for a regular person's informed consent.

People are interpreting the RRR as if it is the ARR. That's the point. Barely anyone even KNOWS that they have a less than 2% chance of being helped by the vaccine, just by taking it. That's the whole point!

People don't realize that the risk of covid is NEAR ZERO for a many demographics, especially the young and healthy. If you are asking a person to take an experiment (IT HAS NO LONG-TERM SAFETY TRIALS) then they should know THEIR SPECIFIC chances that it will ACTUALLY HELP THEM.

ADE is exactly why we went with mRNA vaccines


Aug 3, 2021, 4:10 PM [ in reply to What you just said is 100% false. The CDC has already said ]

The virus mutated. Our vaccines are VERY much less effective at preventing transmission. That is all known, and known before the CDC study.

I'm anxious to read about "The CDC even speculated it could be possible that Pfizer vaccinated people transmit the virus even more.... as vaccine induced enhancement was a problem for all the earlier failed attempts at covid vaccines." Because that was not mentioned in the article you posted, or the CDC study, and mRNA does not even appear in the ADE article you posted. It was seen, 20 years ago, when viral vector vaccines were tested against the original SARS virus.

Two months ago Israel documented a fully Pfizer vaccinated person spreading the delta virus to 75 people at a high school party. Again, this was already documented long ago. Also, vaccinated people may very well spread it more, as they have a similar viral load (INITIALLY) and less symptoms. But there are nothing in antibodies produced by mRNA vaccines that could contribute to ADE over a natural infection of the Wuhan strain. It IS a possibility the virus could adapt to antibodies produced by a vector such as moths or adenovirus, as some covid vaccines use. None of the research you cited deals with mRNA vaccines. Key point. I was very specific in my choice for mRNA. I probably would not (definitely not now) take a viral vector covid vaccine.

I think you got misled on the ADE part. If you take a 100% natural covid spike protein from the original virus, and inject the mRNA for that protein in people, they will replicate the spike protein exactly as the virus does inside you when you get a natural infection, and the antibodies you produce will be the same as well. There is nothing unique that covid would "see" from an mRNA vaccine that it would otherwise see in a person who caught and recovered from the Wuhan strain. Now antibodies induced by a moth, or adenovirus, or other viral vector vaccines, that DOES give covid something unique to look at and in beating that, it could facilitate spread more, with ADE.

Pretend you're covid, and you enter a mRNA vaccinated person. You think they had been to Wuhan in early 2020 and got sick. It's ALREADY evaded those antibodies. They exist in people naturally infected and recovered. However, say you're covid and you infect someone with a AZ vaccine. You see an antibody that's not from covid, you see weaknesses in it, and you exploit them as something new. You see an antibody not from 100% natural covid. PLUS, when your body first saw that AZ vaccine, it saw an adenovirus, not covid. Viral vector vaccines simply do not work well anymore. They were beaten handily by Lambda in Peru, and Chile, and AZ was beaten in India, and Maldives, etc. They still assist in lowering hospitalizations and deaths, but do little for the spread. There is no evidence of then causing anything other than increased transmissibility, at worst.

But the virus mutating to evade a vaccine, is different than the virus using vaccine antibodies to give it an advantage (ADE). We would see significantly worse disease, and MUCH higher deaths, if that were the case. When you see vaccinated people getting SICKER than unvaccinated people, THAT is a sign of ADE. When you see vaccinated people spreading it far MORE than unvaccinated people, that can be a sign too. Neither is the case as delta has plowed through unvaccinated people more than vaccinated in multiple countries now. So the ADE thing is totally not true.

Re: ADE is exactly why we went with mRNA vaccines


Aug 4, 2021, 7:56 AM

ADE has not been ruled out (or in) with mRNA vaccines yet. The trials were not designed to test for that for some reason I don’t understand.

There is currently no specific evidence that ADE is happening with the Pfizer vaccine but the statistical analysis of the timing of an increase in breakthrough cases certainly points to potential ADE. We are in the waning haze of antibodies from the Pfizer vax. They always knew it would require boosters.

This was not disclosed properly (for obvious reasons) and the risk of ADE, which is absolutely wide open thanks to ZERO long-term safety trials, has not been sufficiently disclosed either. In the ridiculous panic to get everyone, regardless of risk to covid19, the risks and uncertainty was thoroughly obfuscated.

“Phase 1 trials of several vaccines have not reported any immunopathology in subjects administered the candidate vaccines. However, these subjects were unlikely to have yet encountered circulating virus.14 Nevertheless, all preclinical studies to date have been performed with the Wuhan or closely related strains of the virus, while a mutant D614G virus is now the most prevalent circulating form. Several observations suggest that this alternative form may be antigenically distinct from the Wuhan derived strain, not so much in composition, but in conformation of the viral spike and exposure of neutralisation epitopes.15-18 Similarly, Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials of vaccine candidates have only been designed around immunogenicity as an efficacy end point and have not been designed to capture exposure of subjects to circulating virus after vaccination, which is when ADE/immunopathology is designed to occur. Thus, the absence of ADE evidence in COVID-19 vaccine data so far does not absolve investigators from disclosing the risk of enhanced disease to vaccine trial participants, and it remains a realistic, non-theoretical risk to the subjects.“

But these stats are massaged to make it look as evenly bad as possible.

The VAST majority of people who died were either extremely old (past life expectancy) or extremely unhealthy (obese, multiple diseases)

raise an eyebrow over.

Since we currently have no easy, airtight way to tell if a person is actually infected... we use the PCR test. The PCR test literally can't distinguish between the presence of dead coronavirus pieces and an active infection. So..... a person could "test positive" from covid and not actually be infected, contagious or harmed by it at all.

The dude who invented it, Kary Mullis, said as much. The CDC has sent out guidance confirming this multiple times. It only shocks people because the news, for some reason, doesn't tell people. Cases are presented as infections.... which is factually/scientifically inaccurate.

badge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

From the link you provided:


Aug 3, 2021, 12:59 PM

"Note: Provisional death counts are based on death certificate data received and coded by the National Center for Health Statistics as of July 28, 2021. "

I don't see anything about "PCR" anywhere, so I don't know what you're really talking about there.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Oh yes, the link is not a reference for PCR limitations.


Aug 3, 2021, 1:04 PM

Here is one for that.



It’s also unclear to what extent people with no symptoms transmit SARS-CoV-2. The only test for live virus is viral culture. PCR and lateral flow tests do not distinguish live virus. No test of infection or infectiousness is currently available for routine use.678 As things stand, a person who tests positive with any kind of test may or may not have an active infection with live virus, and may or may not be infectious.9

The relations between viral load, viral shedding, infection, infectiousness, and duration of infectiousness are not well understood. In a recent systematic review, no study was able to culture live virus from symptomatic participants after the ninth day of illness, despite persistently high viral loads in quantitative PCR diagnostic tests. However, cycle threshold (Ct) values from PCR tests are not direct measures of viral load and are subject to error.10

While viral load seems to be similar in people with and without symptoms, the presence of RNA does not necessarily represent transmissible live virus. The duration of viral RNA shedding (interval between first and last positive PCR result for any sample) is shorter in people who remain asymptomatic, so they are probably less infectious than people who develop symptoms.11

There can be false positives on PCR test for those that...


Aug 3, 2021, 1:05 PM [ in reply to Nope, they are counted in various ways that you would ]

have had COVID.

But you have to be careful when dismissing those false positives statistically.

The total case count is not really impacted, unless the person being tested had already tested positive for COVID a considered is a "separate" infection. That's why the CDC guidance doesn't require retesting/negative test to exit quarantine for infected people...because a previously infected person could still show a positive test result for a period after the infection is over.

This issue can inflate the real-time infection count for someone that was previously infected but didn't get tested at the time (someone that was asymptomatic for instance).

Too many people see this test issue and pronounce the test unreliable and therefore the case counts wildly inflated when that simply isn't true.

Millions of people in the United States have received COVID-19 vaccines. Other than rare reports of severe allergic reactions, analysis of VAERS reports has not detected any patterns that would indicate a safety problem with COVID-19 vaccines."

that VAERS data is typically underreported.

You are parroting a mainstream news meme. Here, look at some actual science acknowledging this common issue.

Background: Underreporting is a limitation common to passive surveillance systems, including the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) that monitors the safety of U.S.-licensed vaccines.

My opinions are my own and function of my own research. I'm not parroting anything.

And the piece you linked is specifically addressing anaphylaxis and Guillain-Barré syndrome. Are you suggesting that those are the primary reactions of concern with the COVID vaccines?

That piece doesn't provide support for the idea that all reactions to the COVID vaccine are likely underreported. It just states that underreporting is a general limitation of self-reporting systems. Ok...but that doesn't validate the reports that have been made. You're trying to make the case that...well there are 800 something issues reported to VAERS abd in reality it's probably more because of underreporting...when in fact, the 800 reports have not been validated as actual problems/reactions.

I said that because it's the default "fact-check" training answer. I have no idea if that was a coincidence or not.... but there you have it.

Are you suggesting that those are the primary reactions of concern with the COVID vaccines? No, I am not. Though it is apparently one of the adverse reactions that has nothing to do with why I posted the article. It was a quick was to demonstrate that VAERS is known to be underreported, not the opposite. There are other sources that confirm this. The idea that it's over-reported creeped up to justify sucking up to pharma companies since the whole mRNA deal.

badge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Nobody's saying something is overreported.


Aug 4, 2021, 6:09 AM

The point is there's no established causal link. Maybe there were twice as many deaths after taking the vaccine as reported on VAERS, so maybe it is underreported. But that doesn't mean a single one of the deaths was caused by the vaccine.

Please don't use the numbers beyond how they are intended. This is how misinformation spreads.

From the website with the 609 number: that's not deaths, that's adverse incidents. Here's deaths:

CDC reviewed 14 reports of death after vaccination. Among the decedents, four were aged 12–15 years and 10 were aged 16–17 years. All death reports were reviewed by CDC physicians; impressions regarding cause of death were pulmonary embolism (two), suicide (two), intracranial hemorrhage (two), heart failure (one), hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and disseminated Mycobacterium chelonae infection (one), and unknown or pending further records (six).

That document did NOT say 600+ deaths in minors. The CDC says there are around 11,000 deaths total, but they do NOT say that 600 of them are 12-17.

I will figure out where I went wrong with the demographic breakdown.

badge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No, once again that is flat wrong....


Aug 4, 2021, 12:33 AM

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/safety/adverse-events.html


"Reports of death after COVID-19 vaccination are rare. More than 342 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through July 26, 2021. During this time, VAERS received 6,340 reports of death (0.0019%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. FDA requires healthcare providers to report any death after COVID-19 vaccination to VAERS, even if it’s unclear whether the vaccine was the cause. Reports of adverse events to VAERS following vaccination, including deaths, do not necessarily mean that a vaccine caused a health problem. A review of available clinical information, including death certificates, autopsy, and medical records, has not established a causal link to COVID-19 vaccines. However, recent reports indicate a plausible causal relationship between the J&J/Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine and TTS, a rare and serious adverse event—blood clots with low platelets—which has caused deaths."

There have not been 11000 deaths caused by the vaccine. There have been 6340 reports of death in VAERS and those are not confirmed to have been caused by the vaccine.

You keep spreading false information?

A couple of weeks ago they deleted half of them.


Aug 4, 2021, 8:16 AM

They never provided any sort of public evidence as to why. The number of reported Deaths on VAERS are far higher than that. They just purged the numbers

They make it hard as h*ll to search for reported vaccine deaths too. It's like a 10 step process to set all the correct filters. I personally saw over 50,000 search results the last time I did it, but it said it could only display 10,000 at a time. For some reason the search result for 50,000 has never shown up an any CDC publications and I've never heard that number acknowledged by anyone except for people who did the same search for themselves (or heard about someone else doing it.) I don't know why there were 50,000 results because I obviously have no way to research it. It could have been a glitch.... because just one week before the same search result only showed around 11,000.


UPDATE: As of 2:30 PM CT on July 21, 2021, the CDC's website modified the number of VAERS reports related to COVID-19 vaccination deaths from 12,313 to 6,079, through July 13, 2021. The CDC's webpage's Last Update date remains July 19, 2021.

UPDATE #2: As of 6:30 PM CT on July 21, 2021, the CDC's website stated through July 19, 2021, VAERS had received 6,207 reports of death (0.0018%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. The CDC's webpage's Last Update date reflects July 21, 2021.

Aug 4, 2021, 9:12 AM [ in reply to A couple of weeks ago they deleted half of them. ]

why do you keep using them as some kind of statistic?

Searching VAERS is pretty simple...for filtering reported deaths after vaccine, I've found it easier to do it by manufacturer.

Query Criteria:
Event Category: Death
State / Territory: The United States/Territories/Unknown
Vaccine Manufacturer: MODERNA
Group By: Serious; Vaccine Type
Show Totals: True
Show Zero Values: False

In reference to the VAERS count change, it was an incorrect coding issue in VAERS tabulations that was corrected quickly and the CDC web page was updated to show the correct count on June 21. If you've pulled data from VAERS you know that you can see descriptions of the cases, so it's easy to see if something was miscoded or not. It sure as sheet isn't some grand conspiracy as you seem to be suggesting.

And still...THESE ARE NOT DEATHS FROM THE COVID VACCINE...and it's patently dishonest to suggest they are.

Aug 3, 2021, 4:17 PM [ in reply to I will take that back. ]

Viral load among breakthrough vaccinated cases and unvaccinated. You see the initial period of 4 days the levels are the same. So YES, vaccinated people spread the virus as much as unvaccinated, at least initially when viral loads are high. BUT, notice the difference over time. That shows the virals loads drop significantly more over time among breakthrough cases. This was with the Pfizer vaccine btw.
