Of course it isn't. It is important to consider the motivations of people who utter certain opinions. Obviously the Biontech boss and other pharma execs have an interest in selling as much of their product as possible. It is reasonable to have some scepticism there.

 

But now consider other players who recommend the vaccine. The vast majority of doctors recommend it. But some make a profit from it, too. How big is that profit, though? My general practitioner charges something like 10€ for jabs that the insurance doesn't pay, so I assume that is his profit from corona jabs, too. But I've gone there many times during the pandemic due to other health problems and they're working their asses off. They can't answer the phone anymore and other procedures have to be delayed, etc. I'm sure he would earn his moneys anyway if he didn't recommend it.

 

Health insurance companies have no interest in paying anything. They only recommend you things to do that will safe them money, basically. They determined it is cheaper to pay for the vaccines and boosters than for hospital treatments. They have a money incentive to keep you healthy and they recommend the boosters.

 

Some governments might have different kinds of profit motives, but basically all of them recommend the boosters. If they were really pointless or bad, you'd expect some random country to say so publicly. But basically none of them do.

 

So you need to look at the bigger picture, not just Ugur Sahin.

That is indeed not immediately obvious, but here is my understanding:

 

A version adapted to a new variant would indeed be better. It takes some time to develop, but it can be done very quickly. Only a few days or weeks and I think they're already done. Then they need to go through testing and official authorization again, which is a couple of months and then they need to get production going. It will be about half a year until this is available to basically everyone. As far as I understand they considered doing this for the Delta variant, but determined the original version was still good enough and didn't bother. For Omicron it will probably be done, but it will not be here quickly enough for the current wave. Maybe an Omicron booster will be available next year.

 

Now, why do they recommend boosters?

 

Your immune system reacts to vaccines and illnesses by producing antibodies. They float around in your blood and can immediately attack the viruses. Virus comes in your nose, antibody kills it. When no viruses come in, the antibodies go away again. Now viruses can come in and multiply before the body produces antibodies again. If you were sick previously or are vaxxed, this production of antibodies will be quicker than the first time you encounter the virus. But it still needs some time to produce the antibodies again and in that time you might get mildly sick or even spread the disease around for a few days.

 

If you're vaxxed two times a while ago, your body already knows how to produce antibodies, even if you don't have any anymore. When you encounter the virus, your body can react and you will most likely not die or go to the hospital. But you are still likely to get sick.

If you're recently boostered, you have antibodies and you will kill the virus much quicker. You won't get as sick and you won't spread as much.

 

Is that understandable at all?

factually incorrect

1972 smallpox outbreak yugoslavia happened despite almost everyone being vaccinated, it was fixed by complete lockdown of pozzed villages in kosovo and mandatory booster of everyone in yugoslavia in ans months

tetanus vaccine is supposed to be boosted at least every 10 years, if you're injured and haven't been vax'd in last 10 years you'll be administered a booster

She's really gross, looks like an old tranny. So yes, your opinion is strange in this particular case, but not because finding a borno actress pretty would be categorically strange

No, most of the porn actresses should be sexually appealing, i.e. "pretty". The definition of "pretty" can vary wildly, though. But remember, that in all cases underneath the pretty face there's still just a whore.

I have nothing against sleeping until 8am but there are people that are proud for sleeping until 12pm. I hate waking up to a bright sky. It just doesn't fit the mood. I want it to be cold, dark and quiet in the morning.

 

That makes sense

Agreed there are something comfy about waking up early in the morning.

 

 

Such a discrepancy would be annoying with a gf but rather useful with a wife. Consider having a child - a morning person can watch over a little baby for a first half of twenty-four hours and a night owl the rest of the twenty-four hours. Little babies need to be fed every three hours.

 

 

 

This is such a German post it's like a second Holocaust.

well i dont see much of that behaviour here, except from boggy.

lmao if only you knew

xD no lol

the coveralls that uni students wear at certain barties here are decorated with patches such as these

 

Custom patches is a very niche market.

i believe that all profitable niches are taken long ago, so you can only start some risky low marginal enterprise. Not sure if its a good idea, except if you aiming to do it ironically.

Wait a second Microsoft has own stores?

Ironic as a response to someone calling themselves a Jew XD

Do you even understand the slogans you regurgitate or is your head literally empty?

Your mother would be proud

haha hiddler :=DDDD

Misunderstood man :(

Literal Nazi , but how is the real question .

nah, it's funnier this way

request ban because nazi!

Yes

its very high, thin air, high ultraviolet. People who serve that high have tan from the Sun, as if they were bathing on the beach. Also there are patches of snow near glaciers and they are blinding white

Thanks for explaining. Sounds interesting.

I thought the sunglasses might be there for another psychological reason. But that sounds like you really need them.

 

I want to go vacation but the government won't let me.

I don't want to travel over Europe, only Northern and Eactern Russia and I have nuch time for this. 40 days of vacation.

 

Басед.

lol ok believe what you want

 

it was one of the vaccines against common diseases that every kid gets

yeah sounds very convenient to ascribe anything bad that happens to them to a vaccine, it's almost impossible to find a timeframe where you can't blame a vaccine for something if you try hard enough

 

see also: autism

I got picked up by a man who told me his son obtained autism from his childhood vaccines. As skeptical as I am about the current vaccination mandates, I don't believe there's any link between the two. I do think there is a link of heart issues that should have been disclosed beforehand. Was it the price to pay to reduce fear and increase adoption rates? Possibly. There's simply no way of convincing the last remaining parts of the population from becoming vaccinated if they're distrustful of big pharma and the government. By introducing these mandates, there's going to be a growing number of vaggots who will suddenly understand this isn't a health issue but one about our liberties and economy.

For me, if there was available options like Valneva or Novavax released opposing the big three available, I'd have taken the vaccine. Does it mean I believe these vaccines will somehow reduce the infection rate? No. As long as there is a few percentage points of inefficacy available within the vaccine, there will always be a strain that will manage to break through our supposed defences or spread in third world countries where they have lower than average adoption rates but somehow better handling of the pandemic through alternative treatments we've been barred from using by large pharmaceutical forces.

The choice is really which secret service you want to have access to your hardware. Five Eyes or China.

how the fuck have i not discovered this

*sigh* Five Eyes I guess
