The New York Times has an interesting piece on the scientists who developed the mRNA vaccine process and the development of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Not a huge amount of detail, but an interesting read.

I'm sayin' if you're young healthy the risk outweighs the reward.

Lol why do you believe that? And where did you conclude that from the study?

Probably from this sentence:

"Ongoing studies are monitoring immune responses beyond 6 months as well as determining the effect of a booster dose to extend the duration and breadth of activity against emerging viral variants. "

but doesn't say what @Pi1Ot thinks it says I don't believe. It's two separate things.

So it's still hypothetical

Lol but yes, what Pilot believes is beyond comprehension sometimes

They're testing things and monitoring. Does a booster work? (Seems they do). Is a booster needed? Don't know yet.

I mean, that's common sense to most of us, I'd imagine.

Does a car, plane, train, etc. ever get built once? Not really, you have prototypes and revisions, components have prototypes and revisions, safety concerns come up which require more prototypes and revisions, emissions concerns require updating components like cats, etc. And on and on.

Any modern, developed product undergoes this process.

Anyone who doesn't realize this applies to modern medicine is in for a rude awakening, to be honest.

Again, just like in that article from a few pages back when all those doses had to get scrapped, there was a Quality Assurance system that uncovered the issue with those doses, and got them scrapped before they'd ever get even close to being administered.

Seems a lot of people find alternative interpretations more appealing than a straight read. I get being unsure about the mess we've had thrown at us and wanting to exert a little control somewhere. I'm sad it plays out this way and will only prolong so much of this.
