 + JMJ   A member of the SuscipeDomine forum ( link to post ) repeated a claim that:  Pfizer Confirms Covid-Vaccinated People Can “Shed” Spike Protein and Can Harm the Unvaccinated October 4, 2021 https://www.algora.com/Algora_blog/2021/10/04/pfizer-confirms-covid-vaccinated-people-can-shed-spike-protein-and-can-harm-the-unvaccinated I really like claims like this because they are relatively easy to fact-check.  First, the document that was tweeted was a small section of the clinical trial protocol, that can be found here: https://cdn.pfizer.com/pfizercom/2020-11/C4591001_Clinical_Protocol_Nov2020.pdf .  The title for section 8 includes Study Assessments and Procedure and the quotation was from section 8.3.5 starting on page 67. I noticed that everything in that section is centred around the "Study Intervention".  After some review the "study intervention" is the shot that was provided.  Given this is a blinded clinical trial, that two shots contained ...

 + JMJ I've read some articles and noticed that quite a few are concerned about the number of deaths attributed to a COVID vaccine. In the states there are somewhere between 13,000 and 14,000 reported deaths attributed to a vaccine. In Canada the number is in the 40's. Yes, you read correctly. What is missing here is the denominator: 192,000,000 That is the number that google spit out at me this evening. US deaths  due to vaccine reaction: 14,000 / 192,000,000 = 0.00007292 or 0.007292% Context means a lot and people who quote only the numerator are telling half truths or in this case 0.007% of the truth. P^3 +++ Comments: November 8, 2021:Hi Tradical They say the benefits outweigh the risks. So there are risks and you can't sue the killer. Hmmmm. The WEF has people brainwashed. That's right, as I understand it, in order for the companies to produce a vaccine within a year, they asked for the government to protect them. So ... if you get vaxxed and have a serious advers...

 + JMJ This is the original mind numbingly long article that I wrote. I realized that it was too much for a first time read so created Part 1 as a summary.  P^3  I stopped following LifeSite quite a while ago, but an article popped up and was so counter-intuitive it merited a 'FACT CHECK' ( If you get the Pfizer vax, you're more likely to get COVID, link ).  Meaning, that if their claim was correct, I would have to alter my conclusions about the efficacy of the various vaccines being administered to the populace. Caveat: I see that they have "UPDATED" stamped on the article so I'll need to see what changed and whether or not I need to withdraw my application for the job of LifeSite News Fact Checker.  Just kidding, I am way too busy to do that. By the way, the first problem I encountered what that their citation didn't lead to the correct document. It led to the briefing presentation and  I had to surf for about 20 minutes to find the correct document. I a...

 + JMJ  A while back LifeSite News posted an article (link) claiming that the Pfizer vaccine made people more susceptible to the vaccine.  So I dug into the papers and spent about 8hrs+ to check into their claims.  I did the math and mapped out my results (attached). My conclusion is that, the data does not claim what they think it claims.  The placebo incidence rate was about 140 cases / 1000 person years.  When the placebo group was immunized, those not previously infected, had an incidence of 52 cases per 1000 person years. Last time I checked, 52 is still less than 140. P^3 P.S. A more detailed version of this containing my ramblings etc will follow tomorrow.   Study / Group State Cases Surveillance Time Population Incidence Study A Grp A Vaccine 77 6.092 19711 12.6 Placebo 833 5.857 19741 142.2 Study A Grp B Vaccine ...
