> extensive studies of the risks of these vaccines
How and when? This time last year (when trump said a vaccine was less than a year away) these same medical professionals were warning us that vaccine testing takes years in the best case.
- hotz 5y agoYep, they were crapping on the vaccines and now they're forcing people to take the same ones. People too easily forget what politicians spew. Critical thinking is lost on many.
- simonh 5y agoThis time last year my wife, a nurse here in the UK, had already had her first shot of the Pfizer vaccine.
- lern_too_spel 5y agoVaccine testing takes as long as it takes to expose enough of the trial participants to see a statistically significant difference between the test and control groups. There isn't a bioaccumulation issue because the vaccine isn't administered daily, so the only long term harms would show up in the time it takes systems to react to it, which would be on the order of days. We have clearly observed long term harm from infection, starting a few days after infection, but no such harm from the vaccine, except for very low rates of myocarditis in young men.
