Meh.

Annual flu shots are similar in that they don't know which variants are going to be in play each year so they create a new "shot gun" type of vaccine hoping to have made a good educated guess. That is necessary every year to provide a modicum of resistance. I am comfortable with that and have taken the flu shot every year for the last 25+ or so years.

Certain vaccines are well known to require more than one dose, sometimes two, to be effective. If we have a new variant(s) and I can build anti-bodies to whatever variant(s) is/are out there at the time, I will gladly seek out the vaccination (unless I see something that concerns me).

YMMV

Immunity, not from the virus but from the "cure", has been provided to the creators and the distributors.

Get your shot! Save the world.

"The quickest vaccine ever developed was for mumps. It took four years and was licensed in 1967. Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine was developed and cleared for emergency use in eight months — a fact that has fueled public mistrust of the coronavirus inoculation in the U.S."

Hmmm... but yet we shouldn't question the "experts." It's all good... line up and get the shot. Be part of the beta test.

I heard this years flu shot will be for the variants over 4 years ago and stuff because 4 years is the quickest. I also heard mRNA hasn't been worked on for years and don't recognize the value of working on components prior to specific need and just having to work on a smaller specific component to address new epidemics or pandemics and the fact that was the plan all along to reduce timeframes without cutting corners. Who knew this could happen. Who knew? Other than everyone involved. And I am glad they are laying the foundation for the next one and hope it is a quicker process yet.

When it comes to healthcare you should probably follow the advice of the uneducated and inexperienced over those wicked wicked experts. I'd especially be careful about going directly to the research and data. Bunch of liars. Go to internet sources that interpret them for you. Much easier to get your answer.

By the way the flu shot is a pretty poor vax in reality. mRNA is much better and is targeted. (and no antivaxers that does not mean perfect)

Fun fact.... I pointed out that fund a long time ago when someone (another antivaxer) in here wanted to bet the over under on lawsuits...... granted I just provided a link and didn't explain the implications since they thought they were being so smart. I just indicated I'd take the bet.... a guaranteed win for me.

So you're comparing COVID with the flu? Anyone that mentioned such as a comparison would be berated.

But comparing the COVID vaccine (9 months old) with the flu vaccine (20 years-ish old??) is OK and all good on your end?

Transparency:
1) I don't do the flu vaccine. I haven't had the flu in... I don't remember how long. 25 yrs?? The last time I can place it, I sweated it out with hot and cold fever. Sort of bed ridden for a day or so... flipping though channels of DireTV. Landed on watching B&W movies... Orson Welles marathon on AMC or something. Citizen Kain totally sucked me in and would highly recommend it to anyone. (off topic)

2) The flu... I'm guilty of using it as an excuse to play hookie from work maybe once or twice a year. Today is gonna be one of those layabout... "cough, cough" sick days. No flu, no COVID, just a day... In MA you get somewhere on the order of 20 to 40 hrs un-paid sick time each year. Don't know specifics because I don't use it. If I'm sick or want a vacation, I use my earned paid vacation time. Today I chose to use a "cough, cough" sick day.

That said, I'm not big on getting shots for something I'm at a low risk of being infected with or even a lower risk of dying from. Even less so with something based on technology that never made it out of a lab until recently.

As for vaccines, I don't know if I've ever had a polio shot or a MMR vaccine and stuff... I probably did but I have no known record of it. I had to do the HEP shots for a previous job since there was a chance I could be exposed with bodily fluids (F-n gross, hated walking into that room to analyze used catheters. Loved the technology of heart catheters... super cool stuff, hated it when them when they came back if they failed).

I'm not an anti-vaxer. If someone wants to label me as such, so be it. My kids are up to date on the childhood vaxs. These vax have some time tested history behind them.

The COVID one, not so much. This is the rut I'm stuck in.

I specifically called the flu shot a poor vax compared to the mRNA (Covid) so if comparing means calling it very different color me guilty. Calling the flu shot 20 years old even though it's modified every year but not giving the same credence to mRNA shots is awesome.

You just can't make this **** up. LMAO

EDIT...... I misread and thought this was in response to me. It wasn't but I'll still leave it up. My bad.

Congrats on the win. You find solace that nobody will be held accountable should any detrimental effects result from the vaccine? Rhetorical question.

When do you plan of coughing up your list of mRMA vaccines that have been approved by the FDA. You claim that there are bunch of them...

Simple question, looking for a simple answers for us simpletons.

Your blind spot cracks me up. Do your own homework but expand beyond your blind spot. I explained it in another thread but you can't see it. But if you really read something I typed out this morning and think....really think, you will get it. I'm not gonna put the time in to it especially when your lack of understanding misrepresents what you say my "claims" are. You've already demonstrated the inevitable result repeatedly.

Make your own choices. I just hope others don't chose based on your misguided and misinformed opinion that you feel so strongly about. That is my only concern. I honestly don't care what you chose and genuinely wish you good health.

Oh and I can argue either side of the fund as it applies to immunizations as a whole. (Covid is slightly different but same concept). It is a very debatable concept and very solid arguments can be made on both sides. I'm not making the argument about good or bad on it but could argue either (necessary to really understand something well). It's just fact at this point. A fact that's nice to see the new internet experts discovering. I was simply amused that one of the new experts was unaware of it when making one of their anti vax proclamations. They never did catch or understand what I was saying. I suppose that is my fault but I am ok with that.

Now go learn more about the history and the reasons for and against and you will be ready for a more in depth discussion about it. We had really robust arguments about it in one of my masters classes a couple decades ago.

The flu shot is available every year and tweaked each year based on what the experts feel will be the dominate/most prevalent strain that year. It's a shot in the dark. Official records have only been tracking the effectivity of the flu since 2003-ish. (Sorry I rounded down on the 20 years thing, remind me to update in 2 years when we hit 2023).

On average, the basic flu shot is 40% effective. I'd have better luck betting on heads or tails in a coin flip.

But yet the Covid shot, based on 9 months emergency testing says it's 90%+ effective. Recent talks indicate there are signs that it may not be that effective and we should go get a "fill up" on our injections?

Question is still open: Name one other mRNA based vaccine, other than the COVID one, that has been fully approved by the FDA or any other world organization fit for use on humans. I'll even open it up to include any mammal - Man or beast.

Still the blind spot LMAO

I'm not arguing with you man. Knock yourself out. Don't get the shot and good luck to you. I just hope others do their own homework prior to reaching their conclusion. Better yet do your homework and talk to your doc. Don't rely on the internet, me, Bucky, or news entertainment sources. Most of all don't rely on politicians.

I'll answer your question. There are none and that is relevant. There are also many other points that are relevant. I think the right question for all folks is this. Based on all of the information available what is my best choice. For me this is weighing the risk-benifit of being vaccinated and weighing the risk benifit of not being vaccinated. I am frustrated with the amount of disinformation. I believe the right spreads exponentially more disinformation than the left. Please note that is just my opinion. The left also has spread some disinformation. Also their messaging hasn't worked well enough. I think everyone fully grown would benefit from vaccination. I know no one should be forced to be vaccinated. I have reservations about growing children being vaccinated. Again, just my opinion. So like usual, I overspoke and probably offended almost everyone. Though I did answer your question.
