1/ “Fully vaccinated were more likely than unvaccinated persons to be infected by variants carrying mutations associated with decreased antibody neutralization.”, and “In unvaccinated cases, most viruses consisted of non-resistant variants”
2/ In addition, the increase in the frequency of more antibody-resistant strains in the population correlates with the increase in the frequency of vaccination in the population
3/ “and the percentage of sequenced cases that were vaccine breakthroughs increased from 0% to 31.8% from February to June”
4/ and “Differences in viral loads were non-significant between unvaccinated and fully vaccinated persons overall (p = 0.99)”
6/ To be clear: This data is not showing that vaccinated people are becoming infected at a higher rate than unvaccinated. Breakthrough % according to the most recent data is about 30% (as of June) of cases (see 3rd point). It would be good to know current % (Oct)
7/ The data shows that vaccinated people preferentially incubate antibody-resistant strains.
8/ This 30% breakthrough rate should be contrasted against the much higher breakthrough %’s occurring in the UK and Israel.

1/ Them: Get vaccinated. It will stop infections and deaths.

Us: It doesn’t seem to be stopping infections all that much.

Them: Yeah, it’s called a breakthrough, and it’s rare.

Us: It doesn’t seem to be that rare.

Them: We never said it would stop infections, just deaths.
2/ Us: Well, the effectiveness of the vaccine to prevent death seems to be waning over time.

Them: Well we never said it would provide long-lasting protection. You need a booster.

Us: How often?

Them: We don’t know yet. Our science experts can’t seem to agree.
3/ Us: Ok, well let us know when you get all that worked out.

Them: No, you need to get vaccinated now or else.

Us: Well, what are the long term side effects?

Them: We don’t know. You can’t take VAERS data seriously. We have to wait until they analyze every report.

1/ “Of the 42 cases diagnosed in this outbreak, 38 were fully vaccinated…
The calculated attack rate among all exposed patients and staff was 10.6% for staff and 23.7% for patients, in a population with 96.2% vaccination rate”.
2/ On the day of diagnosis, only 24 individuals were symptomatic, but in the following days, 36 had become symptomatic. Among the patients, eight became severely ill, six critically ill and five of the critically ill died.
3/ “Moreover, several transmissions probably occurred between two individuals both wearing surgical masks, and in one instance using full PPE, including N-95 mask, face shield, gown and gloves.”

Comparison of neutralization titers over 6 months in young adults (Control) and Nursing Home Residents. Two Subgroups: 1) Prior Infection then Vaccinated. 2) Infection Naive then Vaccinated. Those with prior infection demonstrate greater capacity for sustained neutralization.
Even though the median drops about 18 fold over 6 months in both subgroups, those with prior infection maintain a ~3-4 fold higher neutralization titer over the course of 6 months post vax, with a larger percentage of spread above the median than the infection naive.
In addition, approximately 70% of the infection naive group in nursing home residents demonstrated neutralization titers that were below the lower limit of detection (LLD) after 6 months post vax.

I’m censored the most when I discuss the risk of DNA modification. <1month after I publicly made this prediction, MIT/Harvard came out with their 1st paper proving this possibility with viral RNA snippets. They were attacked. Why is this impossible? It’s clearly not.

1/This shows Spike protein and S1 in the plasma of vaccinated people for up to 28 days after injection. Levels peak at ~150 pg/mL, which is in the concentration range of Spike measured in COVID patients. Now, who said Spike remains at the injection site or in the cell membrane?
2/ The graph above is taken from this paper (Moderna vacc) academic.oup.com/cid/advance-ar…
3/ The Pfizer Vaxx shows a similar profile, with circulating plasma Spike concentration returning to baseline in less than month after first and second dose. They claim 14 ug/mL peak, but describe how this high level doesn’t correlate with Ogata et al.

1/ A modified model for Antibody Dependent Enhancement for SARS-COV-2. Read this paper.
“there is little risk to vaccinated individuals as long as a sufficient titer of anti-RBD antibodies is generated and maintained.”
biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
2/ “once immunity starts to wane, a high ratio of non-neutralizing to neut. antibodies alongside M1 polarization, … and may suggest that neutralizing antibody titers in vacc. individuals should be monitored regularly to establish timelines for administration of booster doses.”
3/ .. “the impact of M1 observed here and in the literature suggests that recalibration of COVID-19 vaccines to produce a more balanced Th1/Th2 response may alleviate side effects,”
