@WSR202@MaryBowdenMD That is a valid point. However, if an individual were to contract a rapidly fatal disease and subsequently expose others, leading to widespread infection, what would be the implications of such a scenario?

A Story Told With Data, Not Emotion
Imagine a child born in Nigeria in 1950. Before the first birthday, that child faced diseases like polio, measles, diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus,
@RyanMcC85016653 I have got nothing to gain... so why would I be lying, I need more of enlightenment
Vaccines are "good", the purpose of it has been thwarted, should all vaccines be cancelled? "no", should there be scrutiny? "yes"
@geauxt17@csim1977@coalcarolyn@TCTWTS@MaryBowdenMD Good question,
I don't know your country but till date vaccine adherence is poor here and polio is at every corner of the road in some deprived area, it would be difficult to fish out the cons
Except real researches are carried out
@TCTWTS@geauxt17@csim1977@coalcarolyn@MaryBowdenMD My biggest fear to this concept is
Isnt it possible to readily identity the fakes from the real
We can't cancel it entirely
Now that narrative of "therapeutic" is sickening honestly
But we can't now generalise all vaccines
I don't know if you understand me
Public trust is built not by asking people to stop asking questions, but by ensuring those questions are answered with high-quality evidence.
That is how science has always progressed, and it remains the strongest foundation for protecting public health.
The better path is evidence-based scrutiny. Demand transparency. Demand accountability. Demand rigorous testing before approval and continuous monitoring afterwards. If a vaccine proves safe and effective, use it. If problems emerge, investigate them openly and act accordingly.
@RyanMcC85016653@geauxt17@MaryBowdenMD We should scrutinize decisions, improve safety monitoring, and demand transparency, not replace one absolute claim with another. Evidence, not ideology, is what should guide accountability.
@RyanMcC85016653@geauxt17@MaryBowdenMD Multiple independent studies found that COVID-19 vaccines reduced the risk of severe illness, hospitalization, and death, even if they did not provide complete protection against infection and their effectiveness changed over time.
Science advances thru questioning. It fails when questioning turns into conclusions without evidence. The goal should be transparency, better vaccines, honest communication & rigorous oversight. not the rejection of one of the most successful public health tools in human history.
