@c0nc0rdance OK:
Firstly the time issue isn’t what they think it is.
I’ve worked on vaccine trials and a huge amount of the time isn’t spent actually doing the trials as such.
This little video explains this really really well:

@c0nc0rdance Next up:
Until it’s proven safe... Well time isn’t the issue here.
Vaccine side effects are almost exclusively short term.
Sometimes things aren’t picked up for a while, but that’s a numbers thing not a times thing.
Really rare things need loads of people vaccinated to show:

@c0nc0rdance And these vaccines have been given to millions.
If you were waiting for them to be proven safe, you are waiting too long.

@c0nc0rdance Also nothing is 100%, not 100% effective and not 100% safe.
Some people will be allergic: we knew that anyway.
Possibly there are extremely rare side effects which aren’t yet apparent.
Is this a problem? When the benefits of vaccination are clear?
Perhaps that’s next, are they?

@c0nc0rdance These vaccines are remarkable!
There’s a silly video where the vaccines are waiting for an interview and one of them is asked by the others what its effectiveness is and it’s sort of mutters under its breath “81%”...and gets teased.
Funny cos it’s true.

@c0nc0rdance Also funny because EVERYONE IS MEAN TO ASTRAZENECA for no reason.
But seriously: these vaccines are ace.
They prevent people getting ill, getting hospitalized and prevent them from dying. And that’s just the person getting vaccinated.
These vaccines WORK.

@c0nc0rdance BUT so they stop you catching it and spreading it?
Here scientists get cagey.
This is because they’re not liars, because they don’t say stuff if they don’t have the data to back it up.
Understandable.
BUT they should be being a lot more gung-ho:
The evidence to date is great!

@c0nc0rdance Even if the vaccines don’t provide absolute “sterilizing immunity” they’re reducing the amount of virus anyone who is successfully immunized who does get infected is actually making in their cells.
So reducing the amount they can spread about.

@c0nc0rdance This is the crux of the problem of science vs pseudoscience
#vaccine vs #antivax
#scicomm vs #CovIDIOTS et al...
Lies can be half way round the world while truth is tying its laces, checking its confidence intervals.
Scicomm needs to be clearer.
Less equivocal.
