benalvino3:What's your definition of vaccine, let's see it. Here is Wikipedia definition. A vaccine is a biological preparation that provides active acquired immunity to a particular infectious disease.[1] A vaccine typically contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism and is often made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe, its toxins, or one of its surface proteins. The agent stimulates the body's immune system to recognize the agent as a threat, destroy it, and to further recognize and destroy any of the microorganisms associated with that agent that it may encounter in the future. Vaccines can be prophylactic (to prevent or ameliorate the effects of a future infection by a natural or "wild" pathogen), or therapeutic (to fight a disease that has already occurred, such as cancer). [2][3][4][5] Some vaccines offer full sterilizing immunity, in which infection is prevented completely.[6] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccine It seems you did not pay attention to your secondary school biology teacher as you sound highly ignorant of biological terms.Yes there are various types of vaccines, but the working principle is all the same. All the bolded below clearly contradict your understanding of how vaccine works. If you were talking of the covid 19 vaccine specifically person for try understandPlease explain. What makes the covid 19 vaccine different from other vaccines? Vaccines prevent diseases that can be dangerous, or even deadly. Vaccines greatly reduce the risk of infection by working with the body’s natural defenses to safely develop immunity to disease. This fact sheet explains how the body fights infection and how vaccines work to protect people by producing immunity.The problem with you is that you have little understanding of the difference between general terms as against biological terms. When you say an infection in biological terms it means the organism has entered the body and has began replicating. It is because the organism has infected the body that triggers the body to respond. If the organism is not stopped from replicating, it will go on to overwhelm the body and hence develop the full disease. In the case of covid 19, the site of the initial infection is the nasal cavity,the infection spreads to the throat, the larynx andthen travels down the lungs through the trachea. If it gets to the lungs it then becomes dangerous and leads to hospitalization and sometimes death. Now, the infection can be stopped anywhere in between the nose and the lungs, by the bodies natural antibodies or with vaccine assisted antibodies. Either way, the body must be infected before the antibodies can be deployed. |
basilico:I agree with most of your speculations save the " The CDC has all the data about the reactions of people including deaths but they are hiding it" The CDC is not the only agency in the world dealing with infectious diseases. Every country in the world has its own CDC and they are all basically saying the same thing. Yes big pharma is profit oriented. So any drug that has some degree of efficacy would be exploited. If hydoxychloroquine was as effective as you guys say, big pharma would exploit it and it would be out of reach of the ordinary people. So no matter the drug, big pharma would still be in control. What was God sent was not particularly the corona virus, but Trump's handling of the pandemic. He messed up big time. First was denial that the disease even exists, then he praised China handling of the outbreak, then he dismissed its seriousness (just like the common cold), on and on, he was making one blunder after another. If he had handled the pandemic a little better, he might have won. |
benalvino3:Sorry I did not see the evidence. Please provide me with the said evidence so I can verify myself. Change which definition? You mean the definition of vaccine should be changed to suit your purpose? |
benalvino3:It seems you need to learn from your MAGA colleague - basilico. He specifically came to the realization that no known vaccine stops infections. What vaccines do is "trick body to think the virus is present so body generates antibodies". The body has to be infected first before the body can generate antibodies. The job of vaccines is to make the body deal with future infections better. Most people still come down with chicken pox or measles even after being vaccinated at a very young age. I doubt CDC can claim vax are 90% effective of preventing infection, most probably that's an error of reporting. That's why CDC still mandates masks and social distancing despite being fully vaccinated. What CDC can say is that CDC claim vax are 90% effective of preventing hospitalizations and deaths from Covid 19. |
basilico:It seems the effort of people giving you free education like Lord Reed and Buda is paying off. You brain has now come round to the fact that vaccines don't stop infections. It only prepares your antibodies to fight off actual infection after it occurs. It's more amazing that you realize that no one knows how long a healed person retains the antigens, and all we are going with are guess estimates. Note that with the flu virus (a related organism), you have to get the flu vaccine every year. When I was schooling in Sokoto, I had to get the meningitis vaccine every year. The Covid19 virus is a novel virus. With more research and time, scientists would understand the virus better. For now we have to do all we can to save as much lives as possible. |
berrystunn:IPOB are now competing with policemen and soldiers ( and Fulani Herdsmen) on who can kill the highest number of igbos, abi? When igboland becomes a war zone, I hope you guys will stay in your land and fight, and not start trooping to the west and other parts of the Niger Delta as refugees. |
hollywater:So what? Some people jubilate at the misfortune of their brothers, sisters, uncles and even parents. That's not enough reason to have them murdered or burn their properties. Kanu should takes responsibility for the action of his members or supporters. He has been calling for violence against people against him or his orders. Kanu has never come out to condemn the violence and assassinations going on in igboland/ Biafra. |
Difrent:Ironic isn't it. They claim to be republican but now have an emperor who you cannot disagree with, else you lose your life and property. Was is the ummana that appointed Kanu emperor or it is that igbo institution that passed a death sentence on Joe Igbokwe? |
CzarChris:So it was Joe igbokwe that turned IPOB to a terrorist organization? |
hollywater:How are the mighty falling, the once famed famed Republican tribe who claim to have no king is now slave to a single man. So jubilating Nnamdi Kanu's arrest is now tantamount to treason that results in beheading or burning of property without trial? So biafra opposing Nnamdi Kanu is treason? Kim Jung Un will be learning work where Kanu dey. |
basilico:The first recorded case of covid19 in the UK was January 31 2020, while in January 2021, they number of new cases per day exceeded N1200. If you did secondary school mathematics, you would have heard of a term called geometric progression. The UK imposed total lockdown for several months starting March 2020. Even the Premier League and all sporting activities were suspended. This year, there are no lockdowns and train stations, busses, bars and football pitches are full with crowds. The new Delta variant is 2 times more virulent and deadly than the old 2020 variant of the virus. Yes, I understand that you can never and I say never understand, as trumpism seems to infect the cerebrum. |
Ibime:Your are just throwing pearls at swine. He does not have the capacity to understand. |
donnie:Please explain how you concluded Covid is a pandemic. That the hundreds of millions of infections reported since the pandemic was a hoax? It means Trump, his family and close aids that was said to have contracted and treated for the virus was planned? Or that Italians that were dying in drives at the start of the pandemic was faked? So all the over 200 governments of the world that is taking drastic measures to control the virus are all stupid. It only a minority select "woke" people like you that can see the hoax. I am not surprised, some of you crackpots are still arguing a flat earth in the 21st century, more than 2 centuries after the matter has been put to rest. |
Maestro21:Gene editing serum kwa? You mean a serum will start editing the over 30,000 genes in each of the tens of trillions of cells in a human body, or the serum will edit the sex genes to your babies genes will be altered? So you mean that the over 2 billion humans that have taken the vaccines so far would have their genes altered? To what - Spiderman or X-Men? You guys just throw around concepts you have no clue about. |
NoFucksToGive:Meaning we should bring out a spread sheet and compare and contrast the scores between Fulani Herdsmen, Boko Haram and IPOB. |
Maestro21:Typical example of "he who knows not and knows not that he knows not" |
drakeli:False. More people have been fired in the US, Canada and Europe than Nigeria, and nothing happened. Unvaccinated and unmasked had been refused entry into offices, planes, restaurants, etc., and no court action were even instituted not to talk of winning. Italy has one of the toughest covid restrictions in the world, and we have not heard of anyone suing the government. |
LordReed:Thanks Lord Reed for taking the time of your busy schedule to respond to misinformation spread by anarchists. They somehow enjoy seeing people suffer or die to justify their political or religioys beliefs. If Kano illiterates are afraid of polio or meningitis vaccination (I remember when I was in Sokoto, we were vaccinated every year against meningitis), I would understand it's due to illiteracy, but how do you explain an educated person promoting conspiracy against a vaccine? Please don't relent to dispel these conspiracies, you will not know how many lives you are saving. |
