No hoops are being jumped through. You’re trying to be clever and look like a fool. Let me put this as simply as I can: the early data suggested 90-95% effectiveness against symptomatic disease. The pathogen has evolved and immunity has waned. Those two factors have led to a drop in that effectiveness, but it is still very effective.

Now with that said, can you tell me specifically why you think a reduction in effectiveness undermines the original data or deem the results fraudulent? Don’t be a slippery fish. Be specific.

Think I got it right now, but mild.

Last Tuesday had a sore throat, went away a couple days later. Now I have a cough but only in the morning and at night right before bed smh. Spitting out some green sh!t every morning. No fever or anything else though.

if you cannot survive the illness then take whatever you can get forever and hope you do not get it or the vaccine/treatment will stop you from dying if you do otherwise fck it and get on with your life no vax/booster required

Valid isn’t the word you’re looking for. Are the results still applicable today? No. That’s why we have recent results that are.

Good, I’m glad we’re on the same page and that I cleared any misconceptions you had. Wouldn’t want you thinking that discrepancies in early vs more recent data are not perfectly consistent with biology.

There is a lot of good suggestions in this thread but one thing that I want to mention that others haven't (plus they don't suggest it on the news) is to sweat that **** out, get fresh air and sunshine that's important also... plus supplement with Vit D3 (5-10k iu/day) along with everything else everyone has mentioned (Vit C, Zinc, Quercetin)

Your brain is literally being gaped and you're so stupid that you think you're the one correct here.

My mind is blown (not gaped - like yours) at how stupid people are in this day and age.

Another wild vaxcel appears, maybe you can try to answer my question, too.
See you’re doing it again. Now I want you to edit your post to say the EARLY efficacy data are not applicable. That’s an important distinction and the entire point.

Being consistent doesn’t mean we can predict it. Think about what those words mean.

So, what you're saying is that they couldn't predict what the efficacy was going to be long term?

Again, simple yes or no, we don't need a whole novel on this.
As in predict the exact relative reduction of the vaccine long term? That is correct, they could not nor was that expected. Just like with any antimicrobial drug or vaccine. That said, you can reasonably predict qualitative trends but I don’t think you’re interested in discussing that science.

Against infection, symptomatic disease, severe disease or death? Generally speaking, when the term effectiveness is used without clarification, it is referring to symptomatic disease.

Because I agree with you. They couldn't predict, and it would be foolish to think that was expected - especially considering that any of the currently available Covid vaccines work in a way no vaccine has ever worked before.

But...

Everyone is supposed to believe the narrative that while they couldn't predict the long term efficacy of a vaccine, they could predict the long term safety of it.

Thanks for playing.
That is correct. You should believe that. It is a false equivalence. And I’m happy to have played.

Best advice, get an oximeter and if your oxygen drops below 92 go to the hospital.

I didn’t have nearly as many issues as you did when I had Covid…

If you don't mind me asking, how much do you weight and what is your height? You look like a fellow bloatcel. Tryna decide if I should get vaxxed since overweight folks get it the worse.

I answered every one of your questions. Your entire approach is trying to ask leading question after leading question. It didn’t work. In summary: the vaccine is effective and safe. Good day boyo.

^ You can grab these at any CVS or local pharmacy. I had one, too. Very simple to use. Below 92, though? I'd wait a little lower than that.

I didn't even think high temp was one of the symptoms people usually experience? Nicotine lozenges help clear up monocytes. High dose (5g) vitamin c (don't take with sugars), zinc, green tea, vitamin d and/or sunlight, quercitin, black seed oil and toss in some chaga tea for good measure (has some studies showing it has anti-viral properties.)

And like others have said ivermectin, but it's mostly beneficial early on before the onset of severe symptoms.

Also, if you can get it, ITPP - it helps offset the weakened ability of your RBCs to carry o2. Hard to find since the sarms crackdown though.

Any of you brah’s have experience with the supposed treatment “Ivermectin”?

How long did it take y’all to fully recover? Is there supps or foods that you recommend I take.
