I resent the notion that being against COVID vaccinations of 15 year olds is being Anti-vax. I think people can be smarter than red pill, blue pill.I'm not sure we have evidence that no one is trying to discover the source. But, I don't care enough to argue.
However, looking back, my father lost a year of school when he fell ill with diphtheria. The majority of folks are vaccinated and its virtually unheard of.
As an infant, I contracted whooping cough from my older brother. My parents were informed that there was no treatment or cure.....I guess I'm on borrowed time for 71 1/2 years...
Not everything comes in the form or timing that we wish. The only empirical evidence I have with the COVID vaccine is that everyone... my adult children, their spouses, my brother, nephews, nieces etc are all vaccinated and we are all still here and no one has been sick with COVID.
But, I respect everyone's right to choose, as I hope they do mine.
Point 1 - the protein mimics the Covid protein. No shit it’s a new protein as it’s a new disease. It’s what mRNA technology does.Then you cannot comprehend what you read. I stated 2 separate things. 1) mRNA that produces a foreign protein protein that did not previously exist in nature and 2) there are studies making the claim of evidence that children born from vaxxed mothers have altered genetics related to this mRNA transcription of new proteins.
Point 1 is exactly what the immunologists described as the mechanism of the shots they created.
Point 2 requires further study IMO which I have already said.
No matter how many times you mistate what I posted, I have not made the claim you ascribe to me and you cannot refute Point 1, so why can you not acknowledge that truth?
More gun theft and murders per capita in Tennessee than CA. But no thanks. Off shore .. is my destination.You should try California. I hear it’s da bomb!
Michael Francheze is adamant that it was a mob hit. He says that he was told by multiple sources who "had no reason to lie."Well.....JoePa was Italian, and it's obvious the assassination was a conspiracy between the Italians, SS, & the CIA.
It takes no skill to be angry. We don't even have to be smart.I resent the notion that being against COVID vaccinations of 15 year olds is being Anti-vax. I think people can be smarter than red pill, blue pill.
The problem is that our public health response was the exact opposite of what thousands of years of human experience told us to do.Perhaps I'm too old to be angry. It might have something to do with some close friends I lost in the early going.
I'm willing to accept that medical science was completely unprepared for this pandemic as were virtually all government agencies.
I'm fully vaccinated (age 72) and I had COVID in July. It was a piece of cake. I'm glad I didn't get it 2 years ago.
I don't feel the need to rally people to get vaccinated nor do I understand why those who aren't want so desperately to prove they are right.
Things were pretty crazy for awhile, but like any "revolution," things seem to be settling back to about where they should be.
IMO, people should be more upset and vigilant with the everyday behavior of congress (in particular) and how both parties piss on us at every possible opportunity. 20.30.40 years in the senate or congress and accruing vast fortunes while earning 174,000 per annum is quite an outrage.
Just for the record, I'm a lifelong registered Independent and both parties have failed the American People. To think that the last 3 candidates are the best this nation has to offer.....now, IMO, this is something to be angry about. Not me, however......I won't have long to live with the consequences.
I agree. Franco was an amazing person and will be dearly missed.More gun theft and murders per capita in Tennessee than CA. But no thanks. Off shore .. is my destination.
By the way... Franco was a good friend. We car pooled from Park Forest Apts to first period classes. He was a very rational, logical and empathetic human. Most of the nonsense posted in this thread is an insult to the caring thoughtful communicator that he was.
Don't think so. I've been a laboratory director at a major university. My wife managed drug studies prior to recent retirement. I would put my understanding against yours any day.Point 1 - the protein mimics the Covid protein. No shit it’s a new protein as it’s a new disease. It’s what mRNA technology does.
Point 2- it doesn’t alter genes. It’s not gene therapy. Kids are not being born with altered genetics whatever that means.
You are the one that doesn’t understand the technology.
I was pro-vaccine at the beginning but Ive had my own problems personally bc of the vaccine.I resent the notion that being against COVID vaccinations of 15 year olds is being Anti-vax. I think people can be smarter than red pill, blue pill.
I have over 30 years in industry and am board certified if you want to compare. mRNA technology has been around a long time and they know the mechanism. It’s does not alter genes. Vaccine clinical trials aren’t the same as as routine drug studiesDon't think so. I've been a laboratory director at a major university. My wife managed drug studies prior to recent retirement. I would put my understanding against yours any day.
The studies are out there even if the media suppresses them or tries to discuss away the results. As I said, further research is required. It is almost laughable to be so naive as to think we know with certainty all of the impacts of these emergency authorized use vaccines after like a year and half. You do realize that they allowed major shortcuts to study protocols to rush these vaccines out with not even phase 3 trial data when there are 4 phases in the clinical trial protocol? Also, emergency use authorization in the past only was permitted for patients who were essentially at their last resort with very bleak outcome diagnosis. It had never previously been permitted for healthy patients.
Same. We lost a legend. No idea if he is a victim of the millions undiagnosed during covid-only health care policies or if the vaccine had an impact or if it was just his time. It did seem odd how great he seemed and said he felt in the interview the day prior.I'm hearing sudden cardiac arrest. He was fine the day before and did a national radio interview
My wife has managed both. Further, there are studies that have claimed otherwise even if suppressed or attempted to be explained away by the media. Here is but one. https://en.protothema.gr/pfizer-mrn...ver-and-changes-into-dna-swedish-study-finds/I have over 30 years in industry and am board certified if you want to compare. mRNA technology has been around a long time and they know the mechanism.

Wow. Never saw a thread go off the rails so fast. I enjoyed it, though.

To be fair, it was pretty good against the original COVID. The variants, not so much. But that brings me to two conclusions: why didn't the "news" about the efficacy of the shots make the news? It was so egregious, I feel like they just lied (for some reason). Worse, they fired people for not getting vaccinated. Second, if you ask a virologist why they missed the variants, they will tell you that this virus is unlike anything on the planet in terms of adapting and changing to be less affected by vaccines. And I mean by a massive amount. Yet, when you ask how this could be so adept at mutating when we've learned a lot about evolution you get the blank stare with heightened eyebrows (meaning, it is man-made but they don't want to say that).Likewise. Became a little irritated to learn that it wasn't "90% effective in preventing COVID" as the nurse proudly proclaimed after my second dose.
Now I sit here on day 6 in the basement with a f'ing mask on. And I got my bivalent booster in late October. Got my flu shot around the same time. Came down with it after Thanksgiving.
BOSCO, I don't believe the thread would leave the rails if or when physical issues of Franco's passing are explained. I'm under the impression he died in his sleep. 😢Wow. Never saw a thread go off the rails so fast. I enjoyed it, though.
"Isolating" from your family in the basement with a mask on does no good unless you have opened up all the windows in the basement and have a fan on trying to increase the exchange with outside air.Likewise.

Otherwise the concentration of aerosolized viral load in the basement is increasing over time and that air is still exchanging with the rest of the house via shared ventilation (your filter likely in your basement is not rated to 300 nanometers and the air ducts are drawing air from your basement for heated air distribution throughout the home) and by macro sized openings at the basement door.
Agreed and sometimes a heart attack is simply a heart attack. Dude was a big fella and aged 72. Many of his teammates suffered with their health from taking performance-enhancing drugs, that were not illegal at the time. He may have had a few back in the day.BOSCO, I don't believe the thread would leave the rails if or when physical issues of Franco's passing are explained.

The short answer is vaccine passports....nor do I understand why those who aren't want so desperately to prove they are right.....
And college football has the best football coaches in the world yet we second guess their every move.🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️Cmon guys stay in your freakin lane. We have the best scientists in the world telling you to take the vaccines and you think you know better, Geesh. Now you clowns are probably gonna come at me and say we really don’t have the best scientists, blah blah blah. Stop hijacking’s threads and becoming part of the problem. Its the same old boring crap.
As I've said before....borderline insanityAnd college football has the best football coaches in the world yet we second guess their every move.🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
JT thomas said he received a call around 2 AM with the news. So I am assuming that means the event happened earlier. No one really knows as there has been no info given as to what happened. At this point I don’t expect any and if that is their choice, that is certainly their right.BOSCO, I don't believe the thread would leave the rails if or when physical issues of Franco's passing are explained.

The vaccine is not gene therapy. But, as it is an mRNA shot, it alters the expression of genes by inserting itself in the transcription phase causing the cell to manufacture the spike protein that is on the surface of the virus. There have been a couple studies showing evidence of it being incorporated in the DNA in some cases but the extent of such, and any effects of such, are yet unknown……as far as I know.Yes I disagree what you posted. The mRNA shot does not alter genes. It creates a protein which elicits an immune response.
Do you know what the word’ obtuse’ means?Yeah this was a major hijacking.
How about those fixated on the Covid vaccine debate start their own thread and we get back to the original posters question on cause of death for Franco?
Not funny.Probably the vaccine.
I bet early Nazis stayed in their lane. And the best scientists in the world at one time thought the earth was the center of the universe and all of the stars revolved around it. Being a good soldier has lead to some of mankind's worst outcomes and the very essence of science is to continue to question.Cmon guys stay in your freakin lane. We have the best scientists in the world telling you to take the vaccines and you think you know better, Geesh. Now you clowns are probably gonna come at me and say we really don’t have the best scientists, blah blah blah. Stop hijacking’s threads and becoming part of the problem. Its the same old boring crap.
Pretty simple…it was cooked up that way in Wuhan. It’s no coincidence.To be fair, it was pretty good against the original COVID. The variants, not so much. But that brings me to two conclusions: why didn't the "news" about the efficacy of the shots make the news? It was so egregious, I feel like they just lied (for some reason).

The less one says the more questions they get asked.JT thomas said he received a call around 2 AM with the news. So I am assuming that means the event happened earlier.

Yep. Unfortunately, it’s on full display in this thread.Do you know what the word’ obtuse’ means?
Check yourself and ask for forgivenessJesus Christ F$%k the vaccine. How did Franco die?
Sorry to hear. Get well quickly.Likewise. Became a little irritated to learn that it wasn't "90% effective in preventing COVID" as the nurse proudly proclaimed after my second dose.

Snarkiness aside, there's no comparison between traditional vaccines and these gene altering injections. The chicken pox vaccine actually provides immunity to chicken pox. With these COVID shots, the FDA had to redefine the word "vaccine" because they don't prevent people from getting COVID and they don't prevent transmission.
How many years was the Chicken Pox vaccine studied before it was released? These COVID shots are still under EUA only.
They should have never been released just based on the Pfizer internal documents.
Does it bother you even slightly that the FDA tried to keep these Pfizer internal documents hidden for 75 years?
