How do you explain the fact that the US birth rate dipped (barely) pre-vaccine and has crept back up post-vaccine? https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/natality-dashboard.htm#

Well, I'm not a doctor, just someone doing stats for doctors...but I think we're going to start seeing it as we're reaching the 9-month mark from the big push for child-bearing-age vaccination. It's starting to show up in Sweden and (I think) Taiwan, but it's not something I'm really studying. https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/sweden-birthrate-update-m...

"Vaccine trial protocols do not typically monitor for major adverse events for more than 7 days" I am stunned by this. Seven days? Is there really no reason to think that a vaccine candidate might have adverse effects more than a week later?

If you studied for more than seven days, you might find problems preventing your mass rollout, and then where would you be

You'd be billions of dollars poorer.

As someone who was trying to conceive while the vaccine rolled out, this isn’t surprising. People were regularly reporting basal temperature spikes, delayed ovulation, and delayed periods. This is a community that is extremely data-oriented, since with the right measurements you’re able to predict your fertile (or non-fertile) window. I was disappointed to see how little research there was into menstruation at the ti…

This is a consequence of the immune response. It's common to every vaccine (or viral infection).

People that think the spread of this coronavirus could ever have been stopped, let alone without destroying social fabric, mental health and causing an economic depression/hyperinflation are insane.

The 95% thing was a hypothetical. But lets rephrase it a bit. Lets say another virus is discovered tomorrow, how high would the mortality have to be before you were to accept all those effects you list? And lastly, how high would it have to be before you would accept actually shooting people who violated quarantine procedures? With the understanding that a statement like never, could mean the extinction of humanity (…

I shouldn't have even added them because I still don't think a coronavirus type of infection that is (or will evolve to become) so contagious can actually be stopped, and I'll stand by that main point.

Especially something that is so drastically over represented in the sick, old, and obese but not the young and healthy. Why is it justified to shoot healthy strong young people, privileging the interests of the comorbid group? In a situation where again, they're going to get sick anyways? What if we just shot the old and fat people and then everyone could stop worrying about covid?

To answer you, who knows, but much much much higher than 0.2% death rate for under 50's etc.

I think what China's doing is wrong and foolish, but maybe their citizens like being locked in their apartments for such a trivial disease, who knows?

I find this hard to believe. It’s beneficial for everyone including manufacturers for their products to be proven safe. If we assume manufacturers are intentionally malicious, what prevents them from outright submitting a dummy saline shot for testing instead of the real thing, guaranteeing absolutely zero side-effects?

When the company has legal immunity... well I think you can answer your own question.

Given that the vaccine itself is out of your system within a few days, and if effective begin triggering an immune response, I don’t think there’s not much reason to monitor for safety beyond that point.

Is it though?

There’s an argument for forcing this decision if it affects others. The prevailing theory, at least at the time, was that widespread vaccination would reduce spread and protect everyone including the unvaccinated. In that case, it could make sense to force people to delay if it means everyone ends up better off overall.

My wife and I are at the end of our child-capable years. A delay, even of a year or two, is likely to leave us without. I know you didn't mean this the way it sounded. I know you are probably well educated and think your choices are obvious. I will only state that I have very strong feelings towards someone who tries to force a decision like this on someone else.

> I know you didn't mean this the way it sounded.

I did - nothing personal obviously, but the problem is that ultimately no matter which side you pick you will have tradeoffs that some people will agree with and some who'd suffer disastrously as a result - just like the flip-side (assuming the initial theory is correct) could potentially involve a lot more deaths and cause just as much grief to families/etc.

Of course in retrospect the point is moot because in practice the majority of countries mismanaged their Covid response and we ended up with the worst of both worlds - the negative effects of lockdowns/mandates/etc without them being followed/enforced enough to actually have any significant effect at eradicating the disease.

Again, no offense intended (and you have the right to be angry), just trying to explain the other side of the debate; there's a tradeoff to be made and either side will have downsides (though IMO in retrospect neither was enforced well enough and as a result we ended up with the worst of both sides without any of the benefits). Ideally there would just never have been a virus and then we wouldn't have to think about these trade-offs at all, but now that it appeared, those decisions had to be made, rightly or wrongly.

My understanding is that the mRNA vaccines, in a round about way, trick the body into thinking it’s infected with the spike protein in order to trigger an immune system response. Is it really so surprising that one of the body’s many responses to viral infection is to alter reproductive activities? Skimming the article, I don’t see reference to other vaccines, but wouldn’t it be reasonable to assume they also cause m…
