Cleveland Clinic has new report, people with booster more apt to contract cvd than ones skipping them. This was on Substack in the last few days. Very surprised since they went along with the narrative.
Well, imagine that. Who knew? All this yammering about covid is nonsense. The "tests" are completely unreliable and meaningless. Lots of people have tested positive and had no clinical symptoms at all. The myth of asymptomatic covid was advanced in order to explain this troublesome fact. The diagnosis of "long covid. is equally absurd. It is hard to believe that anyone would attach any credence to statistics for "death from covid" unless they had been living in a cave for the past few years.
We are coming up to year four of this clown show! I will say both my husband and I have not yet had covid. Have been undeterred by the fear campaign, have not followed masking or the other policies. Had one shot (j and j) and have see every single person I know get boosted multiple times and they have also had covid multiple times.
What a day for Covid podcasts! Right before this video segment, I listened to the Honestly podcast (Bari Weiss)on which the book, “The Big Fail” was discussed. The next podcast I listened to was from Eric Topal and his Ground Truths podcast on which he discussed the new book “They Want Us Infected.” So in which basket shall I put my eggs? I tend to be team Prasad/Hoag and Battachariya overall. But I find it interesting that there are still medical doctors that disagree. Dr Prasad, might you comment on these two books and their authors?
That we are still having a debate on the effectiveness of the Covid Vaccines let alone the net benefit they provide is only due to regulatory capture and the utter corruption of the scientific process.
This has resulted in the continued publishing of deeply flawed studies that were obviously designed with a predetermined outcome in what were once considered reputable scientific journals.
Your colleague on this Substack cited a deeply flawed study published in the Lancet and alleging that the "Under-vaccinated" in the UK had worse outcomes. The segmentation in the study defies logic. It groups those never vaccinated with those who were vaccinated but failed to stay on the schedule and continue boosters and compares them to those that are on schedule. The segments in the "Under-vaccinated" group have nothing in common, one was never vaccinated and one took at least one shot and most took at least two shots.
The true control group is the never vaccinated. Yet they do not provide segmented data separating the never vaccinated from the under-vaccinated but in the discussion section they bury this paragraph.
"Our estimates for the 16–74 years and 75 years and older age groups show that being unvaccinated (strictly maximum dose deficit) was associated with similar or lower hazard ratio for severe COVID-19 outcomes compared with being vaccinated but having a vaccine deficit of at least one dose..."
Obviously they have the segmented data but chose not to share it. Likely because it does not align with their predetermined conclusion. This is the definition of Junk Science and your colleague citing this paper in his latest post and in a prior post the Commonwealth Fund blog post about a model as proof the vaccine was effective and provided material benefits should be embarrassing. That practicing doctors are still using obviously deficient studies to justify recommending treatments to their patients illustrates the medical community has learned nothing from their failures.
By do not reduce, do you mean increase? Check out the Mike Dickson “sudden death”. Journalist heaped hate on Novak for not getting jabbed, now he has passed away at 59.
I would love for you to compare/contrast annual Flu vs Covid booster.
Less benefit but not greater risk

How lost some people are!! They continue talking about vaccines when it has been proven more than 3 years ago that they are not vaccines. That awful!!

Those first to admit
What they were wrong about.
And what they want to be right about
Moving forward - will advance.
The rest will be left, forsaken,
To find their own way home.

What about effectiveness in the elderly?

" ... in people who had covid"
So long as it reduces the chance of "having" it, that will do for me. So far, for whatever reason, I remain uninfected and hope to remain so.
