can you separate results for each vaccine? bundling all of them together makes them sound equally terrible, which is potentially a stupid idea if some are decent, which is possible since the methods behind them are very different from each other
imo the sputnik vaccine is completely retarded. if I understood it correctly, it makes our own body produce the virus. wouldn't we infect others? potentially create new strains on its own? meanwhile, sinovac seems safe
the feedback I have seen from various doctors and researchers comparing the major shots being used globally is that they are all similarly problematic in differing ways, but sure, I can make a post that compares them in the context of the VAERS data.
I hadn't looked into the Sputnik shot before, but from the page on Wikipedia, it seems to not be an mRNA type of design and relies on a manipulated virus being injected.. So it sounds like a cross between a synthetic RNA sequence and a more traditional style of vaccine.
Any vaccines that is 'leaky' (meaning it does not prevent transmission) can potentially result in the person becoming a factory for variants.
aren't sputnik-like vaccines "leaky"? they force our body to produce the virus
sinovac is antigen, not mRNA. it's just the dead virus being inject. so it can only be safe, right?
From what I saw about sputnik I think it doesn't encode cells to create the virus, but I might be wrong.
I am still not aware of the SARS CoV2 'virus' truly having been isolated, so not sure exactly what they would have put in sinovac. Viruses aren't technically alive anyway, the entire language of vaccines is sketchy.
Sinovac was the first vaccine to be used in Thailand and was administered to medical staff. They found it to be so ineffective that the same medical staff are being given a third dose of Astra Zeneca and if anyone had only one dose of Sinovac so far, are being given Thai second dose as AZ.
that's the one responsible for so many deaths afaik. it's the one I wouldn't take. 2%+ chance of dying is too high for me! pass. like @ura-soul said himself:
az was the primary usa shot after all
I think you're overestimating what vaccines can do for us against the virus in general
