Once again, if you disagree, present your data.
Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

vimesey:I have presented as much data as you have presented. By the way, how is that little girl with cancer doing?

You have presented no data. All you have is a river in Egypt.
And having kept tabs on the reports on her, she is still doing very well. Are you genuinely so conceited, that you would rather a young girl die, than you be wrong ?Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

vimesey:And you have presented no data. I have something much more than a river in Egypt, I have redemption, something which you don't think you need. I am glad that she is doing well. If you think that I would rather a young girl dies, you would be very wrong.

The data are all there in the references - look them up.
And she hasn't died. So do you therefore admit you are wrong ?Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

vimesey:Is that why you don't post the data? There are many things that you don't understand. One of those things is that God determines the number of days of our lives. Your hope is that she lives a long life just to prove me wrong. My hope is that she live long enough to know that Jesus Christ is her redeemer, whether she lives only a short time or a long time. No matter what you say, she will die and so will you.

The data are there - look them up.
And yes, we all die. But she will live a longer life, thanks to intelligent, kind, brilliant scientists, who have no religious agenda. You're flailing and failing Kleinman - and are pointing to religious dogma with no empirical evidence, in a vain effort to support the crap you've swallowed all your life. I'm off to bed now - I'll leave you to carry on with your pathetic mewling.Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

vimesey:If the data was there, you would post it, but you don't. Yes, we all die no matter what science does. And you better wear your mask to bed so that you won't die.

Well, another day dawns, and we have yet another step forward in the fight against cancer, based on a deep understanding of how million year old retroviruses that have nested in our DNA can be awakened by cancerous cell growth, prompting the immune system to target and fight the cancerous cells. Have a read here:
Million-year-old viruses help fight cancer, say scientists - BBC News and here: Antibodies against endogenous retroviruses promote lung cancer immunotherapy | Nature Ah, Kleinman - the evidence against your sad religious fantasy just keeps growing and growing, doesn't it ?Could there be any greater conceit, than for someone to believe that the universe has to be simple enough for them to be able to understand it ?

Well, another day dawns...links to new research But the Stupid Asshole will just whine "where's the data?" LOL LOL LOL"I'm the Grim Reaper now, Mitch. Step aside." Death to #TzarVladimirtheCondemned! Enjoy every sandwich! - xongsmith, 5.7dawkins scale

vimesey:You still haven't posted any data that masks work. When are you going to order people to wear tin foil hats.

vimesey as reported by xongsmith:So you notice that as well in vimesey's post, no data that masks work? xongsmith doesn't need data or experimentation for his scientific research.

Kleinman writes: Explain to us why influenza vaccines are changed every year. This has already been done. If you're unsatisfied with the answers already provided in this thread then you should point out where they're wrong or incomplete and provide better answers.
And tell us why Covid vaccines are not 100% effective. Again, if you're unsatisfied with the answers already provided in this thread then tell us what you believe the correct answers are.
I can't help it if members of your forum jump to conclusions. We can't help it if you're a font of unsupported self-serving accusations.
Perhaps you think that descent with modification and adaptation increases the efficacy of vaccines (or drugs, or any other kind of selection pressure). Since no one who's touched on this subtopic has said anything that even remotely hints at such an opinion, it is baffling that you would say this. Your most common strategy seems to be to falsely imply in a mocking way that someone holds an absurd opinion. My position on vaccines is that it is one of the best medical treatments physicians have to offer. But, I also tell my patients that there is a small risk associated with vaccination. The person may have an adverse reaction to the vaccine and that reaction can be severe. My hope is that pharmaceutical companies and government agencies that monitor the production of such drugs will test their products extensively to verify the safety and efficacy of their product. I'm not so sure this happened with the development and marketing of the Covid vaccine... The covid vaccines were approved early before all safety trials had been completed due to the urgency of dealing with the pandemic. Much more data has been gathered since the vaccines were first introduced. This is anecdotal, but while I personally knew people who died of covid, and I know people still suffering long covid, I don't know anyone hurt by the vaccine. Combining that with what can be found online, my impression is that covid vaccines are pretty safe. If you think they're not safe maybe you can tell us what health problems the vaccines are causing, and what active ingredients in the vaccines is suspected of causing them.
...as attested to by the stories of normally healthy people suddenly dying after being given the vaccine. There's a good reason that anecdotal data is never used in studies. It can certainly be used as justification for initiating further study but is not scientific.
It takes time to collect this kind of data and I don't think that the pharmaceutical companies and government agencies responsible are highly motivated to collect such data. A CDC page you might find helpful is Safety of COVID-19 Vaccines. Given the couple hundred million people who have received the vaccine, many also receiving boosters, it would take a million people suffering adverse effects just to reach the .5% level. --Percy

Kleinman:Where has descent with modification and adaptation been explained? Kleinman:It's all about descent with modification and adaptation. Vaccines are selection pressures and when you have diversity in the population, vaccines won't be universally effective if resistant variants are in the population. Kleinman:Perhaps so, but I do know how descent with modification and adaptation works. And it is the reason that influenza vaccines have to be changed every year and why Covid vaccines are not 100% effective. Kleinman:Try not to be so mockable. Kleinman:Was the urgency due to fear and overreaction to a perceived threat? I know people that have died after catching influenza. Should all the policies instituted for Covid be instituted for influenza? Vaccines are pretty safe because they undergo extensive testing based on years of experience using these drugs. Fear is not a good reason to discard this experience and push out a vaccine that hasn't been fully tested. Kleinman:Why don't the agencies responsible post the data? Kleinman:Do the math with your own numbers. 0.5%*100,000,000=500,000 people with adverse reactions for every 100,000,000 vaccinated. How many people got COVID and died from the disease (these numbers are questionable because the death rate from cancer, heart disease, and other causes dropped since COVID is being reported). Then you might understand why some people refused the vaccine, the risk-benefit ratio was not good enough for them to take the vaccine. But people like you want these people to lose their jobs and have them locked up because they will spread a contagious disease. Why not fire and lock up those that got the vaccine but still spread the disease?

Given the couple hundred million people who have received the vaccine looks like a million to me, chuckles... Stupid Asshole also:
And tell us why Covid vaccines are not 100% effective. why should he state the obvious? you are a DAFT Asshole. How effective do they have to be? In your own words. Why is the sky blue?
How many people got COVID and died from the disease (these numbers are questionable because the death rate from cancer, heart disease, and other causes dropped since COVID is being reported). other than a tiny minority that even you cautioned your patients about, we cannot overestimate the political stupidity of a human population.You have data on these death rates dropping? I've only seen plots of excess deaths added on to the total. It might be worth noting, as the nursing profession already said, the flu cases dropped due to public mask wearing. i haven't seen that data, but it seems logical. And==>What did John Prine die of?
Then you might understand why some people refused the vaccine, the risk-benefit ratio was not good enough for them to take the vaccine. naw, those are Stupid MAGAts.
But people like you want these people to lose their jobs and have them locked up because they will spread a contagious disease. Why not fire and lock up those that got the vaccine but still spread the disease? Staying at home & working remotely == locked up???? . . . SOWhere's your data, Meester_Data_Man, on how many vaccinated people still infect others? - i mean in cases where it wasn't already in the body for 2-3 weeks, from undetected up to where it was symptomatic. Where's your data? During a pandemic the measures should match the urgency. We seem to have reached the other side of the early 2020 urgencyand can now fall back into accepting a future with COVID shots as well as flu shots. The ongoing mRNA research may yet have even more amazing developments in other fields of public health maintenance."I'm the Grim Reaper now, Mitch. Step aside." Death to #TzarVladimirtheCondemned!
