That doesn't matter how similar are different they are. The effect of the vaccine would be similar for both and that's to be expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the nature of the beast. Viral vaccines train your immune system to know how to stop the virus from replicating in the body. Doesn't mean the virus won't enter your body or that your immune system will stop enough of it for you to not get sick. When someone gets the flu vaccine and still gets the flu, it's already widely accepted. Yet the first person to get covid after getting the covid vaccine, it'll be front page news in every newspaper.

I copied it and texted it out to many friends this afternoon. 28 minutes ago, Keksie said: I agree a most appropriate quote. I don't see any quote.

It will be very interesting to see how the mRNA vaccines work out. It is very difficult to extrapolate efficacy of older vaccines to a new technology. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare xpcdoojk Posted January 4, 2021 #1221 Share Posted January 4, 2021 So, we have our friend from the Canadian/American NW coast to thank for after 15 years people noticing my special message to this forum. It is all disappointing, to think I always assumed people understood my point of view all of these years. Sigh....😇🤔 😂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taznremmy Posted January 4, 2021 #1225 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Thanks to @Ourusualbeach for how to fix the settings. I was not familiar with the quote, so I "Googled" it. Came up with a lot of options, but settled on one by John Robert Lewis: "“Every generation leaves behind a legacy. What that legacy will be is determined by the people of that generation. What legacy do you want to leave behind?” ― John Lewis, Across That Bridge: A Vision for Change and the Future of America Thank you for having guided me to such a well spoken man, even if it was not the one being referenced. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
