That's vaccine effectiveness.

"Vaccine effectiveness is a measure of how well vaccination protects people against health outcomes such as infection, symptomatic illness, hospitalization, and death. Vaccine effectiveness is generally measured by comparing the frequency of health outcomes in vaccinated and unvaccinated people."

Yeah, and you left out all the CDC heads, Presidents and actually relevant and important people who pretended the vaccines did a lot more than they actually do, and also how the MSM, big tech and Government coerced and silenced anyone who said otherwise.

But, yeah, gene simmons or someone else finding the quotes, that means the point of the thread is invalid. Not to mention the notion that putting forth quotes is somehow now stealing someone else's thoughts and words? How, again? It's a bunch of *quotes*.

You need to cite/source someone who compiled quotes now, do we?

To be fair, the OP is a straight up copy pasta with no citation.

I'm old enough to remember all the way back to December 2021 when news outlets everywhere reported this: "Joe Biden warns of ‘winter of death’ for the unvaccinated, with Omicron ‘here now'"

So those of us who didn't take the clot-shot should all be dead by now. Right Joe?

Or, were they sold as being far more necessary and effective than they actually were and was anyone who suspected otherwise grossly demonized?

You drew the distinction between RRR and ARR.

With regard to adverse events, should we look at RRR or ARR?

Do you think it makes sense to be consistent?

The term 'prevent' doesn't have a sliding scale associated with it like the term 'effectiveness' does. Just lol at pretending those words are interchangeable.

No vaccine can directly stop spread. Large groups of vaccinated people do because vaccines lower your susceptibility.
Wrong as always to justify how poor the vaccines were for the Wuhan virus. From the very beginning they never gave more than partial protection for just a few months because they're nowhere in the neighborhood of sterilizing vaccines. Even before mutation to the Delta virus it was known the vaccines provided very temporary, partial protection. Other vaccines last decades. Herd immunity could never apply to the Wuhan virus.

If every single person in the US got a jab in a month it would vastly decrease infections....for about 2 months, they'd start creeping up again slowly and in within a year the number of infections would be back to where they were. The Wuhan virus jabs seem to be following the subscription model.

From the start of the Wuhan virus vaccinations ~50,000 of the general public had to be jabbed to end up saving 1 life (obviously with time as a constant function, as to be expected). The problem is the jabs from the start killed vastly more than 1 in 50,000 people who got them. This wasn't an unknown from the Pfizer trials data in 2020. It was quite clear in 2020 that it made sense to jab the elderly, maybe some fat middle aged people. The jabs were sold to the public as being able to provide herd immunity as so many other vaccines do.

You can wax on about how no vaccine is 100.00% perfect since people's individual biology are different but that's irrelevant to herd immunity as almost everyone knows. These Wuhan virus jabs were never going to be more than a bandage on a wound, but Pfizer and Moderna sold them to the public and media as though they were going to bring the Wuhan virus down to a miniscule level, while aware that was not possible.

Don't use the word 'epidemiology.' You don't know what it means.

None of this is binary as so many want to believe.

This logical fallacy is called a false dichotomy.

Which vaccines are sterilizing?

A big oopsie is that the effectiveness was never as high as Pfizer and Moderna claimed in their studies. They lied through omission.
95% effective*

*for 2-3 months for one variant. After that we have no idea.
*We also have no idea how effective these shots are at preventing a vaccinated person from infecting others.

No, not really.

At it's heart, it comes down to a semantic argument and interpretation (i.e., IPAC programs in healthcare settings).

I think many prematurely jumped the gun on making overly confident statements based on the initial data. I think it was that overconfidence and poor communication that opened the door who grifters who saw the opportunity for notoriety.

While it's disappointing effectiveness was reduced beyond the initial variant, I still think the vaccines helped. I also think relying on vaccines alone was a mistake.

That's fair.

But how for how long are vaccine trial participants typically followed?

Have any other vaccines required a challenge trial prior to approval?

I agree. I remember in January 2020, a certain orange president enacted a travel ban with China due to it being recognized as a COVID hotspot. Unfortunately it got met with a ton of cries of 'racism' and a certain party of 'science' submitted a bill to repeal the travel ban from the COVID hotspot a few month later.

I'm not entirely sure why they hated granny so much. Oh well.

So much deflection.

Still lulzy tho

Deflections from the basic reality that there were lies upon lies upon lies. From Pfizer, the CDC, the WHO, Fauci, Biden, media pundits, late night hosts, etc.

Hence why people who clung to the lies refused to admit the shots were weak and transiently effective for a year after it was known. Then after awhile pretend like they didn't spread the original lies. The amount of denials along the way were jaw dropping. Anyway, you guys have fun with JLC in this thread. He'll just deflect repeatedly. His meaning in life is to defend the lies and ask junk questions to distract.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!
