This pathetic “mole” did exactly what I thought it’d do and used the same technique Jake Crosby used 13 years ago,
Specifically, he tried to ascribe undisclosed conflicts of interest to me based on funding my university got from certain corporations, even though the foolish mole can’t show a direct link (mainly because there isn’t one).
Then he just repeated the common conspiracy narrative that if you ever received NIH funding you’re hopelessly compromised because NIH promoted #CovidVaccination. I wrote extensively about this disinformation technique last year. respectfulinsolence.com/2022/05/03/nih…
🇺🇸 30,311 babies followed from birth to 6 months, of whom 10,893 were born following #CovidVaccination in #pregnancy.
👉🏻 Protection against COVID infection in the delta period was 56%

This study quite nicely shows how protection declines over time as maternal antibodies wane. For delta, protection against infection is:
84% in the first two months
62% in the first four months
56% in the first six months

Key statistics:
In 2022, there were 92,699 deaths that occurred by 30 June and were registered by 31 August, which is 13,524 (17.1%) more than the historical average.

Study from @Yale looking at the association between the #Pfizer #COVID19 #vaccine and #SARSCoV2 positivity among 542 adolescents when the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 was predominant and within 4 months of the vaccine rollout for adolescents showed:
-estimated effectiveness of the #pfizer vaccine was 91%, with 93% protection against symptomatic infections & 85% effectiveness against asymptomatic infection
Conclusion: These findings suggest that the #Pfizer #vaccine was effective in adolescents within 4 months of #immunization, including against infections caused by the #Delta #variant.

Or that transmission to family (& teachers) shouldn’t be factored in to any decision?

We enrolled couples who were #TryingToConceive without fertility treatment. Female and male partners completed questionnaires on lifestyle, health, and #covid19 infection and vaccination. We followed couples for up to 12 months to determine whether and when they conceived (2/12)
Then, we measured whether #TimeToPregnancy differed by vaccination status or infection history. We accounted for many factors (like occupation, income, etc.) that may be related to fertility and vaccination or infection (3/12)

Here’s some more on that new study. In short, people who received both doses of the vaccine in a single menstrual cycle found their period came a couple of days late. But it was back to normal a couple of cycles later, so the change was temporary. 2/
This might explain why our UK-based study couldn’t find clear patterns to suggest that Covid vaccination is associated with changes to periods. In the UK, our interdose interval is 8 weeks, so it’s not possible to have both doses in the same cycle. 3/
Does #CovidVaccination cause changes to #periods? Biggest and best study so far...
In summary: on average, periods are delayed by ~half day by dose 2 of the vaccine, and delayed by ~2 days if you get both doses in the same cycle. But it's temporary! 🧵

2/12. Neurological manifestations in the central and peripheral nervous system post SARS CoV-2 infection are well documented in the medical literature.
